NON-INTERVENTION PLANS
COMMITEE MEETS.
GERMANY CONSENTS
Necessity of Immediate Action Urged. Press Association—Copyright. London, Feb. 17. At a full meeting of the Non-Inter-vention Committee to-day Herr von Ribbentrop welcomed the committee’s decision to impose- a ban on volunteers and arms for Spain as the possible turning point. He announced that Germany was prepared to contribute financally to the immediate operation of land and sea control. He hoped Portugal would find a Way to collaborate.
Lord Plymouth, the chairman, urged the necessity of immediate action. The Russian, French and Italian representatives also issued statements expressing satisfaction.
The Portuguese delegates declared the dangers confronting Spain menaced the public order and-independ-ence of Portugal. Nevertheless Portugal accepted the ban on volunteers while reserving its attitude to the supervision proposals.
The Telegraph’s diplomatic correspondent understands that Portugal is willing to accept frontier supervision by Britain alone and that the other nations raise no objections.
