For the AGENCE HAVAS-OFI from Mr. LA FONT.

As it has been impossible for me to telegraph in the usual way since 29 June, I am sending you through official channels the following information:

"As a result of the allegation of the TASS Agency regarding the manufacture at Pamplona and in the neighborhood of Madrid of separate parts intended for the German secret weapon, the Spanish Minister for foreign affairs sent an unofficial note formally denying these allegations which have been taken up again by the British press. He stressed the absurdity of this accusation, 'the principal characteristic of this weapon being its secrecy'. The communication goes on to say that there do not exist in Spain especially in the regions mentioned, industrial establishments capable of producing manufactured pieces of this kind, and he adds that Spain does not produce any war materials intended for the belligerents. The note concludes by proposing the verification of this statement although one may be sure that those who are accustomed to slandering Spain will continue to do so."
