Provisions

The Cabinet-in which Mussolini himself holds eight posts, a major- ity-made these prevlslons:

These provisions include: Forcible conversion of foreign credit held by Italians into Italian Government bonds; limitation of dividends of companies to six per cent; a, 10 per cent tax upon dividends, and a transformation oi all automobiles and trucks into char-mat gas-burn- ing vehicles so as to save gasoline.

The communique said Italy would go to Geneva Sept. 4 with full “doc- umentatlon" against Ethiopia.

The session, the first held out of Home in 13, years, was short, last- ing only three quarters of an hour Mussolini himself holds-eight Cabi- net posts, a majority.

“Blue" Anny Victory

It was announced tonight that tho “Blue" Army, aided chiefly by new motorized divisions. gained a decisive victory in the extensive war manoeuvres by forcing back the "Reds" along all lines to within striking distance of Bolzano, the "Red" Capital.

Il Duce arrived half an hour later from a conference held with higfii officers of the army and dashed up the stairs to the Council chamber.

As he entered the Pbsclst dictator laughingly apologized to govern- ment aides for his tardiness. At the conference, held in the ofIice of the prefect of Bolzano, were six cabinet members and ll under-sec- retaries. including Pulvio Suvich, Under-secretary for Foreign Affairs.

Congratulates Officers

Before coming to Bolzano Mus- solini addressed his officers, who are supervising vast manoeuvres in this section of. northern Italy, brief- ly and congratulated them upon the fine showing their troops have made. This demonstrates, he said, that the Italian army is ready for any eventuallties.

The Cabinet presented the world with the following l0 main points:

1. Italy will go to the League with documentation to prove Ethiopia is "retrograde and slave-holdlng."

fl. "Italy intends to defend her in- terests of life up to the very last.’

<3. ‘JGreat Britain ‘has nothing to fear from Italy's policy toward Eth- iopia."

4. "The Fascist Government thinks the colonial question should not reflect upon the European sit- uation unless some one wants to run that risk."

d. sanctions may lead to "the most serious complications" but the Fascist Government has already taken the necessary es face them.

o. The government has. taken steps to guarantee economic resist- anee. including:

'I. Obligatory conversion of for- eign credits;

B. Limitations upon corporation profits.

B. A 10 per cent tax upon divin- ends and interest:

i0. ‘Transformation of automobiles into charcoal gas-burners in order to save gasoline.

A fresh breeze and choppy seas fo.c;o the racers to start with double reefs but the wind dropped considerably while the boats were beating up to the first mark, and Agathais crew took the opportun- ity to crowd on full sail. Agatha led Northwind. and Noreen over the starting line, but Northwind drew to windward of Agatha while beating out of the harbor, and the latter was forced to give way when Northwind crossed her bows on the port tack. Northwind however, fell short of the first buoy. and lost out when she took a short tack to get around.

The breeze freshened for the last two laps of the course which were off the wind, and the boats made fast time on these two runs, Agatha leading Northwind by a wide margin and Noreen bringing up the rear

POPE FRAYS FOR PEACE

CASTEL GANDOLFO, Aug. 28- (GP-Havasi-Pope Plus XI prayed today that war between Italy and Ethiopia might be averted and in- vited 2,000 nurses from 2'1 nations whom he addressed to join in his

supplications. "The mere thought of wa/r makes us tremble," he said. "They are

talking abroad of a war of con- quest, an offensive war. That is a disconce ting supposition on which one does not wish to dwell. A war solely for conquest would indeed be an unjust war, surpassi imagin- ation. It would be too sa , too hor- rlble.

"We cannot think of an unjust war and deliberately dismiss the possibility from our minds. on the other hand, Italy informs us that such a conflict would be for just defence, to protect its frontiers from incessant dangers and for the ex- pansion of population, which isdn- creasing day by day. and that such a war would be justified to assure the material ,, welfhre, and security of the country.

"1t ls true. my dear daughters." the Pope continued, "that we must reflect on this need of expansion and the need to protect frontiers. and we can but hope that these difficult problems will be solved bl’ other means than war.

"But how? The answer is obvi- ously difficult but we do not be- lieve it impossible to find a solu- tion. Let us pray to God to aid and give clear sight to those charged with the task. assuring the happi- ness of peoples and social justice

Much of the success w ich has attended mining in is attributable to the fact thattbe railroad facilities of the C. N. R. were easily available. In the same way its future is linked with the extent and nature of the transportation lervices at its disposal.

Coal formed the largest single item in weight carried by the C..N. R. in 1934. In that year the system hauled as revenue bearing freight, over 8,000,000 tons.- Were impossible to collect this vast amount in freight cars and make one long train, it would extend almost half way across the continents The importance of this commodity to the factories and homes of Canada needs no stressing : : 2 but it is well to bear in mind that the railroad is the only land rrafnsportarion medium for coal haulage wherediszance is a actor.

Of course other mine products enter into the freight business of the C. N. R. Altogether, over 12,000,000 tons of mine oal coke, ores, sand, stone, gravel, oil, r .- lr, etc., were carried m 1934. this being a substantial increase--22%— over the preceding year.

In many districts of Canada the C. N. R: is providing the sole railroad service available to this great industry, and its cracks enter, or are close to some of the moat promising mining areas in the DOIIIIIIIOIL In accordance with its

Long Session

It was the longest cabinet ses- sion in years and President Albert Lebrun presided. Laval, who had tried to compose British and Ital- ian differences of viewpoint in the unsuccessful tripartite conversa- tions and. since then. had con- tinued his efforts to avoid the danger of war by talking to the Italian and British Ambassadors to France, explained his efforts and offered his plan as "one ofthe least of several evils."

Premier Iaval and his unusually strong delegation at Geneva will thus resume the delicate task of peace-makers in what is general- ly regarded as the most. dangcroi; situation the League has encount- ered since it was founded on ideals of world peace.

"It now seems that England. ac- cepting reasons of moderation ad- vanced by France, will refrain at Geneva from demanding sanctions. against Italy, if she can justify her opposition to flats step," Jean Thouvenin, well-known French political commentator declared in the Iritransigeant tonight.
