MIGHTY ARMADA READY FOR ACTION (Continued From Page 1) surgents warning them to keep Nazis out of Morocco.

Possible Foothold Strong British support for French action was urged because of the threat of the Mediterranean trade route should Germany gain a foothold across the Straits from Gibraltar. (Dispatches to Paris said modern and imposing fortifications were being built at Ceuta, Spanish Morocco, just fourteen miles across the narrow mouth to the Mediterranean.) Threat to Peace Britain was reliably reported to regard the Moroccan crisis as the paramount current threat to European peace, but determined to keep it separate from Spanish civil war tension. Leaving the North African moves to France for the moment, Britain concentrated on isolation of the Spanish conflict. Plans for a six power confer enca of Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Russia and Portugal gained strength in some quarters, but authoritative circles held the be lief nothing would be done out side the frame work of the non intervention committee. Favor Blockade On the surface, the only physi cal objections to Italian and Ger man aid to insurgents in Spain and the alleged German invasion of Spanish Morocco were the mustering of French and British naval forces in Southern Euro pean waters.

An international blockade was finding new adherents despite serious objections raised to its practicability. Informed circles pointed out such a blockade to isolated Spain, or even the preparations for it, would place French and British navies a position to intervene in both Spain and Morocco in the future should it become necessary. While Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin spent the weekend at Sandnneham House with 'King George VI, conferring with him on the details of Europes troubles, Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden continued conversations with the cabinet ministers. He was reported to be hoping to work out a volunteer control plan through the non intervention committee to present to the regular cabinet session Wednesday.
