VIRTUAL ULTIMATUM

LONDON, Oct. 14—(AP) — Rus- sia's second demand for action to isolate the Spanish civil war was viewed here tonight as a. virtual ultimatum to European powers.

The Soviet Government sent a note to the International Non-In- tervention Committee which de- manded it be convened this week to act on Moscow's charges that Portugal, Italy and Germany were violating the Non-Intervention ac- cord.

Ivan Malsky, Soviet "Ambassador to Great Britain, called on the Earl of Plymouth, Chairman of the Non-Intervention Committee and ‘ was understood to have requested a ,‘ meeting this week.

The Soviet Ambassador, was said , to have taken personal leadership of Russia's charges in order to em- phasize that his nation was not bluffing in its demands for a show- down.

Lord Plymouth tonight circulat- ed the Russian Communique to other members of the Non-Inter- vention Committee, but did not ao- oedo to Russia's demand that the committee "immediately" be reas- sembled.

Mrs. Wallis Simpson Files llivcrcc Suit

-i__-

. LONDON, Oct. if-(Clﬁ-Emest Simpson said today his wife, Mrs. Wallis Simpson, has filed suit for divorce.

The case has been set for hear- ing before Justice Hawke at the Ipswich Assizes, opening Oct. 27, said Simpson.

He asserted the case would not be defended. Beyond that, he de- clared, he had no statement to make. Simpson is a commercial broker.

Legal sources pointed out Mrs. Simpson will seek her divorce on grounds of adultery, the only met-h- od by which it can be obtained in England.

The proceedings will be placed on the "undefended" list, with Simpson not contesting the charg- es.

If the divorce is granted, the former Baltimore woman will be freed from her second lLl uccess ul matrimonial venture.

She was divorced in I927 from Lieutenant Earl Spencer, whom she married in 1916. Mrs. Simpson has been much in the public eye since she was a guest of King Edward i 0n his summer cruise in the Med- I iterrimcan and subsequently was a I guest at Balmoral Castle.

Mr. and Mrs. Simpson moved to separate quarters today. She took up residence in a house about a mile from Buckingham Palace while he went to live at his club.

Attempts at a reconciliation be- tween them were made in July, when they met in Paris. It was understood friends urged Simpson to accept an invitation to join King‘ Edward's cruise party. He decided, however, merely to make a business trip on the continent. Then he returned to England and awaited his wife's arrival.

another manifestation of a “gen- eral intrigue to stir up trouble in Europe."

Early reports did not mention the Russian demand for a Franco- Biritish blockade of Portugal.

To investigate and report upon methods at present utilized for the purpose of providing employment for veterans, particularly handicap- ped ancl disabled veterans;

To investigate and report upon proposals leading to the develop- ment of further agencies and schemes to provide for a speedy absorption of as many veterans as possible into employment;

To investigate and report on the possibility of re-establishing in gain- ful occupations handicapped and disabled veterans who are incap- able of being absorbed into indust- rial employment, by the develop- ment of small holdings, commun- ity centres, and by such other methods as may be deemed prac- ticable. -

To investigate into existing facil- ities for the care and maintenance of veterans while unemployed and report thereon with such sugges- tions or recommendations as may be deemed advisable;

To co-ordinate and cc-operate with the National Employment Commission in efforts towards the registration, classiﬁcation and em- ployment of veterans.

Commimion‘! First Task

Immediately upon its appoint- ment the Commission started upon its first task of investigating the extent of unemployment and clas- sifying the unemployed. To this end it drafted a questionnaire to be filled in by the unemployed veterans which has been sent to every branch of veteran's organi- zations and to every Prime Min- later 1n the Dominion. To date over 16,000 completed questionnair- es have been returned to the Com- mission and ﬂied at Ottawa. As
