mation he has as to restrictions on the import and distribution of British newspapers and reviews now in force in Spain; and whether he will give the names of the publications in question.

The folloWinģ papers: "Illustrated London News," "Sphere," "Daily Mail," "Daily Telegraph," "Times," although subject to Spanish censorship, are allowed into Spain and are in fact on sale on bookstalls in Spain.
