Britain Draws Grave Charge to Rome's

BOMBING AIRCRAFT RAID SPAIN FROM ITALIAN AIR BASES

According to Reports Causing Non-Intervention Crisis

London, Aug. 15.

It is learned that the British protest regarding Italian intervention in Spain specially draws attention to reports that Italian warplanes fly from Italian bases to the Balearics, where they load bombs, and then fly across to bomb Loyalist cities.

As soon as these bombing operations conclude, the report alleges, the planes fly back to their bases in Italian territory.

General Franco, it is stated, has no jurisdiction whatever over these planes, which are manned by Italians and are Italian in every respect except that they land on the Italo-Insurgent controlled Balearic Islands for bombs on their bombing excursions from Italy to Loyalist Spain.-United Press.

It has been reported that Anglo- Italian relations are again approach- ing criticul stage because of the

British protest.
