GENEVA, Sept, 26-The Council of the League of Na- lions solemnly warned Italy and Ethiopia today against war.

At the same time it con- stituted itself into a commit- tee to draft a report with re- commendations for settle- ment of the East African conflict and to consider if “anything further can be done to safeguard peace.”

Should either country start hostilities before Dec. 4, the. League indirectly warned, it will he considered to have committed an act of war againstall League members. This would automatically call for punitive steps.

This came as the Council by a unanimous vote, from which the ltallan delegates retrained, decided to proceed under Article XV oi the Covenant. It ruled this article was Ln operation as irom Sept. 4.

One suggestion for a further safeguard ior peace was made in informal discussion in League lob- bies. 1t was to send a League air patrol to Ethiopia which could act as "the eyes oi the Covenant" along the frontier oi the Airican king-

Marcel Grlaule, French expert on Ethiopia whose report on conditions there was published as a Leasllfl document, told the Associated Press he planned to submit a comprehen- slve proposal ior such an aierial patrol to a Council committee to-

The Council will proceed under Article XV oi the Covenant, which provides the Council shall try to settle disputes. 1i it is unsuccessful. it will make a report.

(The first paragraph oi Article XII asserts: "The members oi the league agree that if there should arise between them any dispute likely to lead to a rupture. they will submit the matter either to arbitra- tion or to inquiry by the Council.

Bringing the welcome news that definite arrangement had been made for Premier Bennett to speak in Cha ‘ottetown on Saturday night. October 5, Messrs. W. Ches- ter S. McLure and J. I-l.

Notwithstanding an error in early press notices advertising the meeting for Vernon instead of Vernon River, the attendance was considerably larger than that which greeted the Liberal candidates in the same hall a few nights before, and the keenest interest and ap- preciation was nliested in the llmieherdelivered by lhe Conserv- ative candidates.

the mouth of the governor oi the Province. The Speech from the Throne stated that during the past season large expenditures have been incurred 0n behalf oi the Province to meet the cost oi the hard sur- iaced road between Borden and Charlottetown and to provide ior heavy expenditure incurred in the extensive repairs to the Provincial Building and the construction oi the new ferry ior the Rockv Point service and so on. Paragraph eight states that, no legislative provision was made ior these expenditures. and that. said Dr. MacMilian, is the misstatement. For at the last ses- sion oi the legislature authority WM given to borrow $200,000 for the purpose oi paying i0" repairs to the Provincial Building. the new ferry. and ior thLs Provinces share oi the portion oi the Borden lfgh- wav constructed last ycwr. And so, said the speaker, you have a state- ment in the Speech from the Throne that is not correct, and un- less you have more men like Mr Dennis and M". Cox you will sec what will happen In the next iivc years.

MR. J. II. MYERS

Emphasis on the need oi this Province having greater independ- ence in the matter oi railway man- agement was laid by Mr. Myers, the iirst speaker. who said, amiq ‘p. P1511”. that both he and his col- league, Mr. McLure. purposed, ll lie-elected. making this one c! their chief concerns. “We want to stand on our own feet in this matter," he declared. A great deal of repair work now being done at Morlcton could be done right in the railway shops in Charlottetown, giving em. lllvymcnt to local people. As evid- ence oi the fact that this pledge was no empty assurance, Mr. Myers reviewed the successful efforts made during the past iew years in obtaining transierrence oi cor ierry expenditures irom C.N.R. accounts to the Consolidated Revenue Fund, and of a substantial year round re- duction in the excessive automo- "bile rates. on the car ferry-con. oessions based on . commendations oi the Duncan Report oi i926, which remained uniulfilled until the Bennett Government took oi- iice.

In his opening remarks Mr. Myers explained that this is the only Province ior many years past that has held joint debates, which have been discontinued in Queens County this year. In the present campaign there are six candidates running in the county which would mean unnecessarily long joint meetings. This was one very good, reason for holding separate meet- ings.

Liberal Obstruction Tactics

The world depressions made it easy ior the Opposition at Ottawa. said the speaker. All they had to do was criticise and oppose every remedial legislation. and blame the effects oi the depression on the Government, '

“We have been charged by our opponents with having restricted world markets for Canadian pro- duce because oi our tariff , licies," Mr. Myers continued. “With this contention I wi deal at some length and I I can prove conclusively that such of“ ‘ has

Premier Hepburn Of Ontario Makes Plea On Behalf Of Lib- eral Cause.

Nearing the close of his cross Canada speaking tour on behalf oi his federal leader, the Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King. Premier Mitchell F. Hepburn of Ontario at a Liberal rally in the Strand Theatre yester- day afternoon appealed to the elec- tors ior support oi the local Liberal candidates in the coming federal election. In a doubie-barrelled verb- al attack he charged that the high tarifl protectionist policy oi the Conservative Government, under Prime Minister Bennett, was ruin- ous tn agricultural areas and doub- ted the sincerity oi Mr. H. H. Stev- ens, who he believed. although leader oi the Reconstruction Party, was "still a Corlservative."

Mr. Hepburn was introduced to the audience by Mr. R. C. Chandler, President oi the local association, who acted as chairman oi the meet- ing. Addresses oi welcome were extended the Ontario Premier by Premier Lea, Mrs. J. A. Lawson, President oi the Women's Liberal Club, and Dr. I. J. Yeo, President oi 5th District Liberal Association. Mr. Wishart Campbell, well known Can- adian radio artist and travelling companion oi Mr. Hepburn, iavored the audience with several vocal sel- 91°!“-

He then proceeded to review the high tariff barriers erected against Canada in the period 1922 to 1930, before the Bennett Government assumed oiiioe, citing iirst the long list of tariff increases im- posed on Canadian agricultural products by the United States. The post-war tariff increases oi France. Germany, Cache-Slovakia, the Ar- gentine, Mexico, Cuba and other countries were cited.

"We are not blaming our oppon- enis ior the tariff increases im- posed by the United States and European and other countries in their time," said Mr. Myers. "World conditions were responsible. What I do blame them for is the attempt to mislead the people by claiming that we were responsible ior the imposition oi these tariffs against
