The Ambassador in France (Bullitt) to the Secretary of State
[Received January 22—11:20 a.m.]
89. The Senate yesterday passed unanimously the bill authorizing the Government to take necessary measures, providing other countries act in a similar manner, to prevent the recruiting in territory under French sovereignty of volunteers for fighting in Spain or Spanish Morocco, to prevent the passage of such volunteers through France or the enrollment of French nationals abroad for such service. The Chamber had previously passed this bill likewise by unanimous vote and it is promulgated as law in this morning’s Journal Officiel.26
