London, Dec, 11 No agreement upon the basis for the impending Anglo-Italian parleys to be held in Rome during Mr. Neville Chamberlain's visit, was reached by Lord Perth, British Ambassador, and Count Galeazzo Ciano, Italian Foreign Minister, during their last interview.
It was also learned from authoritative quarters that Lord Perth voiced antagonism to the new Italian anti-
French campaign Mr. Chamberlain is determined to refuse the grant of belligerency rights to Nationalist Spanish Generalissimo until the withdrawal scheme is fully carried out, it was stated this evening.
Signs of the Government's opposition to recognition' of belligerency rights are seen in their. refusal to low shipping companies to be represented legally in the Maritime Court established by the Nationalists at Cadiz.
Burgos formed this Court especially io judge cases of seized cargoes and functions as though belligerency rights have been granted. Britain's refusal to allow legal representation before this tribunal is therefore interpreter as a refusal to recognize any fait accompli with regard to the belligerency problem.
