For Immediate Peace. Conference.

(By Joseph E. Sllarkey, Associated Press Staff Writer)’ (A. P. By Guardian’s Special Wire)

GENEVA, July 2-—Emperor Hails Selassie took two bold steps tonight in an attempt to save his country from. complete domination by Italy. ‘

First, he asked the League for a loan of $50,000,000 to “defend her integrity.” Then he sent to the assembly a. draft of a resolution calling attention to provisions in Articles X and XVI of the covenant for non-recognition or annexation obtained by force of arms.

The Negus, who delivered a personal appeal to ills", assembly two days ago, said Ethiopia has a right to assist- ance from the League under Article XVI. ‘

He recommended that.League members guarantee tho loan, which would be floated by Ethiopia under condition: to be fixed by the council and after consultation with" 1

A call for an immediate peace conference by leading nations to “prevent 8‘ European war" was made unexpectedly by Eamon de Valera of the Irish Free state.

“The terrible menace which threatens us all today can be wsrded off," he said.

The Dutch delegate. Dr. A. C. D. (is Green! suggested the League be reformed by eliminating sanctions and sucking the body a purely con- sultative one.

Australia's syokesmau_ M. Bruce, said in discussing the League's failure to save Ethiopia that “the hope of minions of men and women has been extinguished. We must. rekindle that hope."

Ielmlc and small state:

Despite its recent reversal League of Nations remains “sole refuge of small states," James Parr of New zealand de- clared. He said New zealand fav- ored sanctions and their intensifi- cation. “but if t.he majority feels otherwise New zealand will bow to the will of the majority on condi- tion that the covenant is examined next autumn.”

other speakers touched upon re- form of the League, which is to be taken up at the assembly‘s meeting in September. Most urged aband- ‘ of sanctions against Italy. In proposing a peace conference,
