it does not follow that, outdoor ac- tivities have ceased.

Because the Scandinavian na- tions usually stand together 1n 1n. ternational afialfs, particular inter- est was taken in a speech by R‘, J. 5111111181‘. foreign minister of Swed- en. -

"The provisions of the Covenant apply to big nations as well as small," he said. “Troop movgmgnts hive Hllslravated the present situa- tion considerably. It milst, be set. L181! The COllilCll has been ungblg to stop military preparations.

"The question of slnvey in Ethi. opla must be investigated by the Leagye. It must be investigated from the general pcin( of view of a committee, which can present its report to the Assembly."

Despite a declaration that the Dutch people feel that the League has failed completely in disarmam- ent work, Jonkheer A. C. D. de Graeff Foreign Minister o! the Netherlands. said that his country would support League sanctions in the present difficulty. '

Belgium's support was pledged by Premier" Paul Van Zeeland, who said: "Belgium. which already has given indisputable proof. in the past, of its fidelity to engagements, will not be found wanting in the obligations devolving on it from the Covenant."

Agreement on policy by France and Great Britain became known after a luncheon given by Premier Laval for the British Foreign Sec- relarv and Anlhonv Eden, Minis- ter for League of Nations Affairs. Sir Samuel l-ioare had planned to return to London today, but he de- cidcd to stay over to hear the sp-eech which Premier Laval will make tomorrow.

-Emperor Hallo Selassie received news of Great Britain's firm stand at Geneva today as "a wonderful New Year's present."

The ruler and the imperial fam-

ily were quietly celebrating a oop- tic calendar New Year's service and praying for peace in the little chap- el within the Palace when the As- sociated Press correspondent show- ed him a dispatch reporting Sir Samuel I-Ioareb declaration of Brit- ish fidelity to the League. “It is a wonderful New Year's present." the Emperor whispered to the Empress. With unieigned de- light the pious little Sovereign dis- patched messengers to contmunl- cate the news to the populace. which cheered Britain and the League.

Optimism Keynote Pessimlsm in this capital turned to optimism. "The tide seems to have turned," I-Iaile Selassie said. "We face the future with renewed confidence. God, justice, and the great powers appear to be on our side. Our prayers for peace may yet be answered.

"We will not be the first to draw blood. but if war must come, we are prepared. We will yield noth- ing further in the way of economic, political or territorial concessions to Italy. Our delegation at Geneva is so instructed.

Official sources said if the lea- gue applles economic sanctions against Italy and closes the Suez Canal to her the Ethiopian army is prepared to hold out. "With our gueriila tactics we can wear out the Italians and dissipate their sup- plies while England is dealing with Italy elsewhere," said a high army chief.

ROME. Sept. 1I—(A.P.)—Italy. well informed sources said tonight, regards war with Ethiopia as inev- itable and will not be swerved by

the position France may take a: Geneva.

But at the same time Rome was uneasy over the forthcoming speech to the League of Nations by Pre- mier Laval.

These sources said Premier Mus- solini would not swerve from his

even if France should whole-heart- edly fall in step with Britain's en- dorsement of peace and the League Covenant,

Press Comment

"How will France resist the Brit- ish pressure?" asked the newspap- er Lavoro Fascists. "Although we see Laval at. his work as an expon- ent and a reallzer of a renewed Italo-French friendship, it is not. possible to hide the fact that there exist in France some groups and forces of masonic mark who are ex- ertlng pressure upon the head of the French Government for a change in the direction of Britain.

"We cannot do less than hope that. those responsible for the French policy will see clearly and far into the future of the European situation."

“March Straight 0n" “On the other hand, whatever France's attitude may be, no one can now deceive himself with the belief that this or that motive can modify the unchangeablc will of Il Duce. The Mussollnian formula is

precise and unequivocable: "We shall march straight ahead." There were indications Italy ls

irritated by the length of the Italo- Ethiopian discussions at Geneva. A spokesman said:

"Italy has nothing further to ac- complish in the League with refer- ence m the Halo-Ethiopian ques- tion, now that Baron Pompeo Alolsi has presented our 'memorandum. However, it should be remembered that Italy is ready to discuss other questions currently before the Lea- gue."
