The Chancellor had not yet re- lied to the < Franco-British note as 12g Germany to enforce a ban . inst the volunteer enlistments, and some observers believed he was deliberately playing for time in which to consult Premier Musso- lllll of Italyon a common policy.

N. D. MacLeal: i

here tonight.

tThe Washington Slate Depart- ment yesterday approved shipment of planes and parts by a New Jer-

Rey firm to Bilbao, Spain. on the

ground the Neutrality Act does not bar such shipments in case 0t civil war.

(For several days European cap- itals have been waiting anxiously for Hitler's decision on a. Spanish Insurgent plea for the dispatch of German regular divisions to Spair. and on the question of "volun- tcers“ in the Spanish war).

Officials emphasized, however. that the United States shipments will not be made for two or three months. In the interval, it is hop- (d, an agreement more effective than ilow exists will be worked out. It is not unlikely. it was learned, that the United States will be askcd to cooperate in non- intervention.

MAY JOIN POWERS

The Government eagerly studied all information bearing on the possibility that President Roosevelt will not act to tighten the neutral- ity law and align the United States with efforts of European powers to keep arms out of Spain.

Informed sources said Britain and other European powers m8)’ urge the United States to place a ban on export of war supplies to Spain.

It. was pointed out that Presid- ent Roosevelt could make United Stntes neutrality effective regard- ing Spain by recognizinl the val" cncia Socialist regime and the Burgos Fascist Junta as bellisfl- cnts or by asking congres to am- end the law to include civil war-

Offlcials said it would bc "use- lcss" for the non-intervention com- mittee hcrc to ban arms shipments by its 28 member nations it muni- tions could flow freely from coun- tries outside the agreement.

Thc recent. Supreme Court dc- cision upholding presidential arms embargo powers would prevent re- covery, he said.

When a. reporter" mentioned that Cuse contends the airplanes were not for war purposes. the President said the same plea was made by shippers during the early stages of , the Great War. ‘

Even before the President spoke. Chairman Pittman (D. New of the Senate foreign relations com- mittec was planning to seek quick enactment of a neutrality amend-

would autlicrize the President to prohibit munitions shipments to either side in a major ci\'il war, , he cxpre sod hope it would bef passed in time to block the Cuse shipment.
