DENIAL

LONDON,
Aug.
9:
An
official
statement
by
Spanish
insurgent
authorities
yesterday
denied
that
airplanes
which
attacked
British
and
Italian
steamers
last
week
were
units
of
General
Francisco
Franco's
air
fleet.
Co-incidently
the
Spanish
government
issued
a
statement
claiming
that
the
alleged
torpedo
attacks
on
the
Ger
man
cruiser
Leipsig
in
June,
which
resulted
in
the
withdrawel
of
Italy
and
Germany
from
the
non-intervention
naval
patrol
of
Spanish
waters,
were
a
"fake"
designed
to
alienate
sympathy
from
the
loyalist
government
cause.
