The Soviet government's warning that it would withdraw from the non-intervention pact if Germany, Italy and Portugal continued to give direct aid to Spanish rebels is the first sign of resistance to the drift toward a fascist Europe. It is unfortunate that the Soviet Union should be the first to come to the rescue Spain. Any action that the Soviets take will seem to justify the rebel charge of "communist" influence on the Madrid government. France, as a sister republic with a Popular Front government much like that of Spain, has a far greater stake in the outcome of the war and is geographically in a position to send immediate and effective aid.
