SEA CONTROL
Berlin, "June 29. It is
apparent from German papers, particularly from the des- patches of their London corras- ponents, that Germany is quite prepared to give constructive sug- gestions to the Non-Intervention Committee during ita present session, even though the German Ambassador in his statement on Tuesday did not, put foreward any detailed proposals."!
The London · correspondent · of the. "Berliner" Boersenzeitung
that Germany, stresses the fact had In the past already made quite a number of proposals, and this is probably why the German Ambassador this time did not put foreward any new ones.
The inadequacy of the land and sea control, as carried out up to now, has gradually led the public to zegard the eventual withdrawal of volunteers as of illusory value.
Hence what is above all neces..... sary before any progress can be achieved in the sphere of non- interventfön, is to find a really effective system of frontier con- trol, and
judging from Lord Plymouth's pronouncements, this seems to be highly remote.

NON-SPANISH COMBATANTS
The plan for the withdrawal from Spain of non-Spanish tionals engaged in the conflict was next considered and Lord Fly- mouth said his Government re- garded the question as of great urgency and importance. The French representative said that in order to make a start with the general process of withdrawal his government desired to suggest that arrangements be made for the immediate withdrawal of all non-Spantah prisoners of war o" wounded. It was agreed that fur ther consideration should be given both to the question of the Naval Observation Scheme and the with- drawal of volunteers at the next meeting which was fixed for t morning of July 2.

Paris, June 29. "The Government will devote
all its energies to the cause of peace and social progress. The Gov. ernment's foreign policy will be inspired by the desire to live at peace with all countries and to extend the field of International co-operation.
Peace, however, will not be pur chased at the expense of a re- nouncement of rights which could only lead to a loss of independence and war, but will come automati- actly through the will of the nation, which is determined to defend, itself."
This is part of the Government's declaration, which the Council of Ministers approved for reading in the Chamber and Senate. The de- claration then strongly appeals to all nations and Governments to lend their co-operation to a policy of mutual 'economic support and a imitation of armaments so that the hope may be realised of "an eventual permanent peace,
"Turning to the internal situation, the declaration points out that important social laws, provided a foundation for a change in the assured working conditions and the workers of higher degree of prosperity and independence and honour. The
new Government, it is assured, will always endeavour to bring about general stocial peace and incorporate the new social legislation into the economic life of the nation-
