IN SPANISH CIVIL WAR NO CHANGE IN BRITISH POLICY. NEW SPANISH GOVERNMENT WARNED. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day, 10.12 a.m.) RUGBY, March 13. Britain’s policy regarding belligerent rights in the Spanish civil war remains unchanged. In addition to this declaration by Mr Chamberlain in the House of Commons, an answer by Mr R. A. Butler, Parliamentary Undersecretary for Foreign Affairs, reminded the House of Lord Halifax’s statement in the House of Lords last Thursday regarding instructions sent to British warships, and said the British Charge d’Affaires in Burgos had drawn the attention of the Spanish Government to this statement. Since then no British vessel and no British lives or property had been lost.
