Carmen of America hero today. Mr. Miller was one of two tech- nical advisors to the ilinitcd States delegation which went to the Inter- national Labor Conference at Gen- eva in June. l-le said the confor- ence looked upon the world as a great economic unit and tackled the unemployment problem as one with which the entirs world was faced. "We are bound together as never before." he said. "We must bring our economic and political policies into correspondence with economic facts. We know in the United States we cannot put our own house in order and let the rest of the world stew in its own iuice." Nearly 1.000 members of the Brotherhood are attending the con- “ . which is the first one since that held in Kansas City in 1020. It will last from i0 days to a fort- night.

UIIESTIIIN MAY BE RAISED Problem If Supported May Take On New International - ‘As- pect. - (By Roger D. Greens Amociaied Press Staff Writer) LONDON. Aug. 28—(A.P-)— Muasolini may tell the League of Nations on Sept. 4 that, if other powers will give Italy some of their colonies in Africa, he will call off his threatened invasion of Eth- icpia, diplomats heard today. If he intends to name such a pics for peace, said students of the Itaio-Ethiopian situation, he may endeavor first to get from Chancellor Hitler of Germany support for making the colonial question an international concern. Right To Colonies (Baron Konstantin Von Neu- rath, the German Foreign Min- ister told Sir Eric Phipps, British Ambassador to Berlin, in May, that Germany insists the former Allies must recognize her right to have colonies again before the Reich will return to the league of Nations. Germany lost her Af- rican colonies in the war). At the same time, the return to the Foreign Office tomorrow of Sir Samuel Hoare. Foreign Min- ister. and Anthony Eden, later for League of Nations Af- fairs, was expected to give new negotiations with France and Itzly. The two men are expected to start immediately preparation of the British program to be fol- lowed m the League Council res- sion opening Sept. 4 a in the assembly session Sept. 1 . Eden, a member of the British assembly delegation, may speed his return to Geneva to participate in some of the council meetings and be in on any final decision there. While the Government has been represented as feeling the colon- ial problem is ar- international one which can only be-decided at a Joint‘ conference of the interested powers, there was no sign that Great Britain would permit any sudden parley to be called as s. result of the Africa.
