But it is not merciful to allow the struggle to linger on. “The oil sanction could be sp- plled comparatively quickly. 1t is batter for all concerned that it should be applied as quickly as possible." . Sir Austen referred to the poss- ibility of Ethiopia refusing a settle- ment of which the League approv- ed.

The former Foreign Secretary. discussing United States moves in the Ethiopian situation. said the whole trendof that country was to "abstain from any close arrange- ment with any other power." this reason, he said, Britain could not expect the United States to be a partner "in any distant adven- ture" where "extreme measures are taken." Anthony Eden, Minister of League of Nations Affairs. declared the fact that 50 nations were willing to shoulder the "unwelcome respon- sibility" of sanctions constituted a remarkable testimony as to their anxiety to see a new era prevail. KING CONFERS (Continued from Page I) uovznnon INTERVIEWS HAUPTMANN Governor Hoffman Qf New Jersey G e t s Condemned" Man’s Story First Hand. (A. P. By Guardian's Special Wire) NEW YORK, Dec. 5—Gcvernor Hamid Hoffman of New Jersey, a member of the "Court of Mercy" that may be Bruno Ric“ ’ Haupt- menu's last hope, disclosed today be had interviewed the condemn -‘ kldnapper in the Trenton, N.

Prison attaches said it was the first time in their recollection ex- tcnding over at least seven years. that the state's governor had vis- ited a doomed prisoner. ‘rhe in- terview, which took place one night early in October, was carried out with such privacy that only War- den. Mark Klmberling and the two principals knew of it. Special Arrangements The warden, in describing the specialarrangements he made, said he stood at a distance and did not hear the conversation, which lasted more than an hour. In revealing the visit, Governor Hoffman also disclosed he had urged the seven other members of the Court of Pardons to call on I-Iauptmnnn and "learn his side of the case at first hand." ' William Conkiin. the Governor's press aide, said: , ~ .

APPesr - Rested Arriving at noon today from the summer-like environment in which he spent the last fortnight on the Georgia coast, Mr. King seemed much rested and very fit. He had not been idle, he said, since he left Ottawa Nov. l4, but had man- BBed to get in a. great deal of walking and relaxation following the strenuous months of campaign- ing snd forming a. government. Although the government takes the stand that the statement last week-end denying responsibility for the auctions suggestions made at Geneva by Dr. Rlddell, Canadian permanent advisory officer at the League of Nations, left nothing more to be said. it is believed that Mr. King will make some further announcement. To Attend Labor Parley Dr. Riddell must leave almost at once to attend the International Labor Conference at Santiago, Chile, and it is anticipated that either Senator Raoul Dandurond, minister without portfolio who is now in Europe, or Hon. Vincent Massey, Canadian High Commis- sionecln London, will be appoint- ed to act in his place on the League committee of 18 when it reconvenes Dec. i2. Mr. Lapointe today denied that Dr. Riddelks departure for Chile had anything to do with his be- haviour as a member of the com- rnlttee of 19. On Nov. 2 Dr. Riddell suggested to the committee that oil, coal and iron be included in the list of commodit‘ named in the sanctions ‘ Italy. Last week-end the government issued a statement declaring ‘that Dr. Riddeli, in making the aug- gestion, was acting on his own re- sponsibility and not on instruc- tions from the present government. The order-in-council‘ assigning Dr. lliddell as Canada's represent- ative at Santiago was passed Nov. 22, eight days before the govern- ment's disavowal of his sanctions suggestion. In the meantime Canada had been represented as taking the lead at Geneva in im- posing additional sanctions against Italy. The Santiago Labor Con- ference opens Jan. 2.

Pleaded Innocence Beyond saying that I-lauptlnann had "pleaded his complete inno- cence," Governor Hoffman declined to divulge the details of their talk. Later, in New York to address a luncheon club, the Governor called it "Just a casual visit." He denied he was conducting a priv- ate investigation of the case. . “Some people have been working in the matter," he said," but I am not at liberty to discuss it." Coincidentally, it became known that Ellis Parker. chief of the lBurlington County, N.

By Guardian's Special Wire) BERLIN, Dec. 5—l..eaders of Germany's Protestant Confessional (opposition) Synod were said ‘w- night to expect wholesale arrests after receiving‘ notification their opposition to the Nazi administra- tion of churches constitutes treas- on. Chief Hartmann of the church affairs section of the secret police told Rev. Gerhard Jacobi, Presid- ent of the Berlin Synod, and Rev. Peter Scharf, President of the Brandenburg Synod, that the joint action of their Bynods yesterday was trcasonable. . The Berlin-Brandenburg group declared opposition to an official edict renfoving administrative rights from church groups opposing the government's administration. The two pastors were warned that any further steps in the» direc- tion in which the Confessional Synod leaders are moving would be dealt with and punished as "high treason." Hartmann, wearing the uniform of the Schultz Btaflel, or Nazi picked guard, said he acted upon orders of Hans Kerri, Nazi head of chilrch afiairs, who issued the ed- ict designed to strip the Confes- sional Synod of its powers.

He indicated the Privy Coun- cil would hear the appeal because there had been a conflict of Judi- cial opinion and the matter was obviously one of public gravity. Counsel for Ontario had been expected to argue the Canada Temperance Act was not within the competence of the Dominion Parliament, on the ground that liquor legislation falls within sub- jecis assigned to the provinces by the British North America Act. It appeared from Lord I-Iailshanra re- marks today that this melrhfld 01 attacking the Act would not be al- lowed by the» Judicial Committee. Counsel for the Dominion said he held a neutral poslticnbut object- ed to Ontario challenging the legis- lative competence of the Federal Parliament. The Act was upheld some years ago by the Privy Coun- oil. The practical effect of the Su- preme Court declsion on June 8 was that Ontario Liquor Control Board could not issue authorities for the sale of wine and beer, or open liquor stores in Peel, Huron and Perth unless their electors voted the Canada. Temperance Act out of operation. From his decision the Attorney- General of Ontario now takes ap- peal to the Privy Council, with tho Attorney-General of the Dominion joined as an interested party.
