The Consul at Geneva (Gilbert) to the Secretary of State

Geneva, September 28, 1936—10 a.m.
[Received September 29—11:33 a.m.]

363. I learn from an authoritative source that the Spanish delegation has submitted to the Secretary General documentary evidence of violations of the non-intervention agreement by Germany, Italy and Portugal. So far this evidence has not been made public76 and it is not yet clear what developments may result from its submission to the Secretariat.
