Anglo-Italian Pact's Plans May Be Blocked AQUA-SHEEN
FRANCE AND ITALY UNABLE TO AGREE ON SPANISH ISSUE
Britain Endeavouring To Encourage Negotiation
London, May 19.
Considerable anxiety exists in London over the lack of progress in the negotiations between Italy and France. A deadlock has occurred due, it is believed, to Italian objections to alleged French support for the Spanish Government.
French support of the Loyalists, it is feared in London, may have the effect of delaying the withdrawal of volunteers from Spain. Without the withdrawal the Anglo-Italian Agreement cannot be implemented.
Sufficient progress, however, has been made for Lord Plymouth to begin consultations with other members of the non-Intervention Committee regarding the pro- cedure to be adopted for withdrawal of volunteers.
In Rome, the British Ambassador, Lord Perth, has expressed to Count Clano, the Italian Foreign Minister, the hope that Franco-Italian talles will not ix suspended.
French observers are of the opin- Jon that another reason for the hitch
is the Italian refusal to confirm to France the assurances already given Great Britain respecting the
