Heads II Duce's Forces in Field Veteran Directs Italy's Armies DEWEY, 111 Madrid, June 13--The Spanish Nationalist government, whlcr came to power year ago las' after three years of civf war, formally declared today tha Its position in Europe's spreading conflict would be that of a non belligerent. The official Ante bulletin pub lished a decree signed by Genera Francisco Finnco, Premier and Cauclillo (supreme leader), and Col Juan Belgbeder, the foreign minister, saying thai Ilnly's onlry into Ihc against Gieal Butnin and France had made it necessary that Spain's attitude be recognued by the belligerents. "With the conflict extended to the Mecliteiranean thiough the entrance into the war of Italy against France nnd England," the deciee said, "the government has ngteed on Spain's non-belligeiency in the conflict." It was undeistood, meanwhile, that Spain was protesting to Gieal Britain against the detention of 19 Italian sailors, picked up by the British after the Italian merchant steamer Libano had been scuttled off Algecnns.

The piotest nnd demand tha' the sailors be leturned to Spain fiom Gibraltar was expected to be made through Sir Samuel Home the new British ambassador lo Spain who presented his creden tials to Franco Saturday. It was understood that the demand wa based on the fact that Ihe Italian ship went down in Spanish water and that the British had no righ to interfere. Half ol the crew the Libano reached the Spams! coast nnd the other half was taken to Gibraltar, acco cling to Spnnlsl reports. Great Britain a i France form ally recognued the Franco legim on Feb. 27, 1939.
