Italy Seeks To Diss- uade France From Supporting Britain —- Oct. 10th “Zero Hour”?

(C.P. by Guardian's Special Wire)

Sir Samuel Hoare, British Foreign Secretary, told the Assembly of the League of Nations yesterday that the British Government and the British people stood by the League Covenant. Britain stood for “steady collective resistance to all acts of uh provoked aggression.” " The five-power concilia- ‘tion committee" at Geneva will begin drafting plans for peace in the Italo-Ethiopian dispute today.

Tecle Hawariat, Ethiopian delegate, urged that the Lea- gue send an impartial inves- tigation commission into Ethiopia to test Italy’s char- ges against her. , In Rome arrangements were pushed for close col- laboration between Italy's fleet in'the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean and General de Bono. High Commission- er of Eritrea. Unconfirmed reports said Oct. 10 might be the “zero hour” for hostilit- ies with Ethiopia.

Rome newspapers urged France not to follow Britain in her attitude towards sanc- tions. The Giornale d'ltalia suggested the League devote its time to localizing the halo-Ethiopian dispute. Ethiopian forces on the Eritrean frontier withdrew 18 miles to avoid danger of border incidents with nearby Italian troops.

Chief Speaker, Mr. J. F. Wheat, Unable To Assist Candid- ates In Making Im- pression — No Con- structive Sugges- tions Advanced.

A.n array of five speakers failed diamally to bring to life much evi- dcnce of Liberal enthusiasm at a meeting held at Eldon last evening. An audience of about '75, the great- er pari. cf which remained till the end of the addresses, gave the speakers a quiet hearing, but little inspiration.

Mr. J. F. Whear, retired Post Of- fice Inspector, was the chief speak- er. The Liberal candidates, Messrs. Larrabee and Sinclair. supported by Mr. Dugald MacKinnon, M.L.A-, and Mr. D. Edgar Shaw, KC, also spoke. The anti-climax of the meeting was reached. when afici- the singing of the National Anthem. Mr. Whear called for three cheers. for the Liberal candidates. The cheers were given, andwith a will. but by Mr, Whear alone.

Criticism was again the dominant note in all the speeches. As Mr. Dugald MacKinnon admitted there was nothing they could do but crit- iclse.

Ml‘. James McKeiina presided.

Mr. J. J- Larrabce said that the Government candidates were not going to have meetings. according to a Guardian editorial. He regret- ted that the candidates had not. accepted the Liberal invitation. The speaker referred to the “democrat- ic" way in which the Liberal pol- icies had been enunciated. Mr. Stevens was a dictator, and had no right. to form! a party. He had a “boulevard" o Mr. Bcnnetta prom- ises, Mr. Larrabee said.

In the west there were 20,000 men “locked up" in the unemployment camps. Heatedly and in pious wrath, Mr, Larrabee referred to the unemployment disturbances in Sas- katchewan. With child-like faith in the Liberal party leader's state- ments. Mr. Larrabee placed the en- tire responaibility of world-wide conditions of depression on the

‘Socialism, Says Bennett

Prime Minister’s Stand Firmly Taken Ont Ground Of Capitalistic Reform‘

Extension Of Conservative Policies Already In Force To Develop Easier Credit 6's’ Lower Bank And Mortgage Rates Outlined In Prime Min- ister’s Third Broadcast Message.

(C.P. by Guardian’s Special Wire) _ OTTAWA, Sept. Iii-(C.P. in “a measure of controlled inflation,” and that he would be thefirst i0 advocate changing the Bank of Canada from private t0 public ownership if it were shown that such a change would be beneficial to the people, Prime Minister Bennett tonightdelivered the third of his series of broad- casts over a national hook-up. A measure of controlled in- flation had been introduced in the past two years.

The Prime Minister discussed credit, interest rates and inequalities in the standard of living. He went briefly over some 0f the arguments of his political opponents and asked to be understood, “now and for all time, as declaring my- self against any action which will destroy the capitalistic

system.”

Referring at some length to his campaign promises of 1930 Mr. Ben- nett declared they had been carried out to the fullest possible extent. I-lis promise of "a national old age pension scheme” had gone half way to absolute fulfilment. “And now we bring info our national economy," he added, “a pension scheme greater and infinitely more comprehensive than

any of which I dreamt in 1930."

“Standing on his speech oi’ 1930 in Winnipeg in which hc promised to use the tariffs “to blast a way into the markets has have been closed to you." he sold it was right then and “it is a 1,000 times more so noun"

THE PRACTICAL TEST Inviting comments of his Liberal opponents on the questions of credit,

inflation, "printing press money and getting somethIngTor nothing," Mr. Bennett declared-"while our opponents propose means which ‘viii not

work either Jrcoretically or actually

only work theoretically but hlve been working actually.”

The Conservative party, Mr. Ben- nett said, “stands upon the bedrock of performance; the opposing par- ties upon tiic changing sands of po- litical expediency." Political argu- ments oi the day included the case for capitalism, reformed capitalism, socialism, communism, "and some rare economic creations for which, perhaps, we cannot find a name."

Wealth Adjustment Necessary

The government had all the means at hand, Mr. Bennett said, “to give this country complete relief from harmful credit conditions, and to give it the entire benefit. of a credit system which will adjust, in the only why it is helpfully adjust- able, the relationship bet/ween debt- or and creditor, between buyer and seller, between producer and con- sumer.“

There were inequalities in the standard of living which were cor- rectihle and must be corrected. “Great riches and great poverty cannot live side by side in the same wmiiiiliiiiyl‘ A solution offered when "we begin to translate a few of oui' pious protestations into uct- iial practices.“ There was also the solution of compulsion and “the best

. means of compulsion is taxation, de-

signed scientifically and ianely io distribute more evenly the burden which the nation must bear, find the advantages the people have a right to share." An Excellent Beginning

“I talked to you, mi" friends, ab- out these questions inst January. 1 think you know my p int of view, I think you will nil agree that our general plan oi‘ ivinrni is sound and sensible. 1 venture, indeed. to hope that you will pass upon it as one which knowledge of our troub- lcs and of thc means which will cure them, proclaim to be a wise (TIC.

"We have made an excellent be- ginning. We will continue along that way carefully, resolutely. in justice to all, (rec from the prelu- dice which must distort our view and confound our most vehement efforts.

“I am No Socialist!"

“Everything has its normal rate of speed. When that is exceeded. wreck often follows. T; try over- night to cure capitalism of these faults wihch, in company with all other animate and inanimate things, it admittedly has. would simply be to destroy it. And you must understand me now and for all time as declaring against any nciion which will destroy the-cap- ltalistic system. 17b1- that action would be the action of a Socialist and believe me. f am no Socialist and never will be.

Licut-Col. C. L. MacKay has re- turned from the World Convention of the Churches of Christ held last month in Leicester, England, re- porting a gaihcring which surpassed in magnitude, interest and inspira- tion the moat sanguine expectations.

“I feel that the World Convention generated a feeling of better under- standing among the representatives of the ~17 nations represented. My impression is that .a better under"- standing can be developed among the peoples of the world, centering on the fact of Christian unity," states Col. MacKay.
