Fascist Press Warns Against Extension '0f Sanctions By A League Countries.

(Copyright 1036 by the Haves New! Agency) (0. P. by Guardian's Special Wire)

GENEVLA, Feb. d-League of Nations experts tonight were said to be convinced a petroleum em- bargo against Italy would halt Premier Mussollnfs motorized war machine in East Africa. and force Ii Duce to seek peace by the end of this summer.

Oil-producing nations of the League, meeting here to frame their recommendations on the pro- posed petroleum blockade to tho League's sanctions commitee of 18, were reported to have reached the conclusion that Italy's present supply cannot last longer than l0 months.

It is believed o. League embargo against petroleum would exhaust Lily's available supply within seven or eight months. Making all- owances for national production, the use of substitutes and the small amount of oil that could be imported from non-sanctlonst nations, the experfs feel Italy would be able to supply its home needs and those of its army in the fieldfor a maximum of nine or l0 months.

"LAST WARNING"

R:I¢IKE' Feb. 4~—(C- P. Haves)- Infarmed circles debated here to- nizlht whether Italy would bolt the Lepgue outright if an oil embargo "is decided at Geneva. No indi- cation of Ii Ducefls present atti- tude couid be obtained, but the newspapers tonight declared the Fascist appeal to Europe's students to protest against the oil embargo was "the last warning."

City Council Protests H0le-in- corner Order Cutting Relief Payments

Action Of Provincial Government In Repudiating Previous ‘Relief Guarantee Evokes Strong

O I C Criticism.

Notified Monday that by an or- der in council the provincial gov- srnment would only contribute $3.- 000 toward Chariottetownfls direct

relief burden fonthe months of January, February and ch. the

City Council in annual meeting city

here last night decided to discon- tinue relief entirely “unless satis- factory arrangements can be made between the civic government and provincial government."

The order in council passed at a. meeting of the Provincial Govern- ment January 2B was received at City Hall Monday and was read before the annual meeting of Char- lottetown City Council last night.

The order stated: “The govern- ment of Prince Edward Island will pay to the city $3,000 for the months of January, February and March for direct relief provided that the city in each of the said months contribute $4,500 or more."

With the Federal and Provincial Governments each paying one third of Charlottetowws direct re- lief costs last year, the city's dis- bursements for its unemployed was $26,000.

By the order in council of the provincial government Charlotte- town's direct relief costs would be almost twice as high in 1936 as they were last year. '

mously by-the City Council last night after a motion by Councillor A. H_ MacDougall was seconded by Councillor_ J. B. Blanchard. the civic government decided unless ar- rangements other than ordered by the provincial government can be made Chariottetownb City Council "will be forced to discontinue en- tlrely any further- reiief after the 15th of February."

A special committee composed of members of the Finance Committee and City Clerk were appointed to wait on Prince Edward Island government to ascertain how the city stands under the new plan.

The following was the text of the resolution passed by the Couficti:

Resolved that we, the City Coun- cll of Charlottetown, hereby agree
