LONDON,
April
22:
The
British
government
again
gave
official
warning
yesterday
that,
while
It
would
protect
Its
merchantmen
on
the
high
seas,
the
Navy
could
not
assume
responsibility
if
they
entered
the
territorial
waters
of
foreign
nations.
In
spite
of
the
warning,
it
was
reported
that
five
British
freighters
were
gathered
near
Bilbao
In
preparation
for
a
mass
movement
.into
the
Spanish
port
with
food
supplies.
The
British
vessels
were
reported
to
have
been
authorized
by
their
owners
to
run
the
gauntlet
despite
the
government's
warning.
They
were
promised
an
escort
of
British
warships
to
the
three-mile
limit
from
which
point
Spanish
government
shore
batteries
and
a
fleet
of
small
armed
craft
would
take
over
the
Job
of
fighting
off
Insurgent
attacks.
,,
The
five
freighters
started
the
attempt
to
smash
the
Insurgent
blockade
at
dawn
today.
Three
of
them
were
later
reported
to
have
been
driven
to
shelter
at
St.
Jean
de

France,
by
Insurgent

The
