| Description | Cartoon shows a submarine flying the skull and crossbones (labeled "Submarine Piracy") sinking a ship labeled "International law." In 1937, during the Spanish Civil War, ships, submarines, and aircraft of unknown nationality attacked neutral ships in the Mediterranean. The cartoonist warns of the serious implications, not only for the ships, but for the principles of international law. The piracy ended after Britain, France, and Italy sent ships to patrol the Spanish coast. |
