HALIFAX, Sept. lfi-Stiffening Ontario prices likely will bring up the prices of New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island potatoes, F. W. Walsh, director of marketing for Nova scotia, said Saturday.

The two Maritime provinces are the largest factor in the Canadian potato market. Nova Scotia. with much of its crop exported to the West Indlrs, will not be affected by the rising prices except that they will raise P, E. I. prices. This prov- incc buys a considerable quantity yearly from the Island. .

Preliminary estimates indicate, Mr. Walsh said, that the New Brunswick and Island crops are going to be well down from last year's-probably only 65 to 70 per cent of the 1934 production.

Also, a big drop is expected in production of the five eastern United States to which the two provinces sell much of their sur- pluses. Wlth the prospect of higher prices there, Mr. Walsht looked to increased exports from‘ the two Maritime provinces.

ADDIS ABABA, Sept. iii-Em- peror I-Iaile Selassie, waiting with a tense hope for favorable action at Geneva, was said by friends to- night to be facing the necessity of immediate nation-wide mobiliz- ation unless the League of Nations acts quickly to settle the Italo-Eth- iopian problem.

Sources close to the Emperor said some advisers seem to favor mobilization without delay as a "precautionary measure" because owing to the continued heavy rains and the bad condition of the primitive roads, it will require several weeks for some of the Eth- iopian forces to reach the front.

They pointed out, also. that 160,- 000 Italian soldiers and 50.000 nat- ives have already been massed on the Ethiopian frontier by Italy. Today the Italian forces were re- ported engaging in flame-throwing and heavy artillery practice near Adowa assertedly to intimidate Ethiopians across the border.

One of the Emperor's counsel- lors suggested, however, that , he deliberately allow the Italians to occupy a. portion of Ethiopia be- fore proclaiming general mobiliz- ation. This, he said, would affcrd additional evidence to the world that Italy is the "aggressor."

'I'he abrupt and uncompromising communique of Italy‘s cabinet Sat- u1'day-—coming as it did in the midst of the League of Nations’ peace negotiations — shocked the Ethiopian Emperor.

Selassie, although he feels he is struggling with his back to the wall, still hopes his country can be saved without resort to war. Thus he is waiting eagerly for some news from the Geneva committee of five. entrusted with formulation of a plan for peaceful settlement of the dispute.

LEAGUE FACES TESTING PiilNT

Last Minute Hope Is Held Of Preventing War.

By George Ijamblefon, Canadian Press Staff Writer (By Guardian's Special Wire) GENEVA, Sept. l6.-(C.P, Cable) --The League of Nations approaches its testing point. The League's five- power committee meets tomorrow to consider its peace plan designed to prevent conflict. between Italy and Ethiopia. Experts worked on it all day to- day, modifying and amending in the hope that last-minute changes would make it acceptable. But the amendments do not change the plan in principle. There is nothingin it. it was learned in British circles, which gives political or military control of Ethfoplaito the Ltalfans. As that is what the Italians want, even the most optimistic observers now expect Italy will reject the scheme and resort to war. If she goes to war in defiance of Leagueoblfgatfons, the Council will be brought face to face with the question of sanctions. How-aver, the" ) are preliminary bridges to cross. A peace plan has to be adop- ted unanimously by members of the Council other than the representa- tives of the parties to the dispute.

1f the Council fails to reach un- animity, the members of the League "reserve to themselves the right to take such action as they shell con- sider necessary for the maintenance of right and Justice."
