DECISION NOT TO ATTEND
THE ASSEMBLY.
Madrid, August 21, The Foreign Minister, Senor Yanguas, has announced that ho will not attend the forthcom- Ing League of Nations meetings in Geneva-Reuter.
London, Aug. 24.
Sonor Yanguas" announcement that he will not attend the Leagua meetings at Genova does not I promise well for smooth discus- sion of the question of Germany's election to a seat on the Council,
The claims of Poland and Spain to permanent seats have been recently given prominence, and though it is likely Poland will Snsent to a compromise, there have been no signs of yielding in- the case of Spain. Indeed, the possibility has been discussed of Spain retiring from the League if Gormany be elected.
The recent pronouncement by Primo De Rivera that Tangler ought to be included in the Spanish protectorate has caused astonishment in France, where the claim is regarded as a bargaining counter in the Counell seat dis- cussions.
The importance of the Cabinet meeting at which Yanguas an- nounced the decision not to go to Geneva-is emphasised ir. a Madrid message that despite a tempéra- ture of 105 in the shade, King Alfonso remained in the capital to preside over the Cabinet. The British Ambassador, an unusual occurrence this season, is going. to Madrid from the San Sebastian courts, his. summer residence.
Yanguas at the conclusion of the Cabinet meuting said the delibera- tions related to Tangler and the League of Nations, and dwelt. on the world-wide interest in Primo, De Rivera's pronouncement. He 8.id the meeting at Geneva.on Aug. 30, of the committee to dis- cuss the seats question was the culminating event in international, politica, and most important for Späin He regretted that dip- lomatic negotiations now proceed- -ing-prevented-a-fuller-statement.
