SPAIN’S ATTITUDE
WILL SHE ENTER WAR? THREAT TO GIBRALTAR (United Press Assn.—Elec. Tel. Copyright) GIBRALTAR, August 16 There are persistent rumours that Spain is entering the war against Britain. One suggestion is that if Spain does not take Gibraltar the Italians will, meaning that Spain will permanently lose it.

Their destination is believed to be the border of the International zone.
