Peace in Africa — under League ausplces—-seemed doubtful and dis- tant. after the Italian delegates for peace conversations arrived here without instructions from Premier Mussolini on a basis for settlunent. some League quarters forecast an attempt by I] Duce to force the League to allow an Italian-dictated D0809. ABANDONB PEACE TALKS Abandoning his hope of getting the Italians and Ethiopians around a, table for negotiations, Salvador de Madariaga, the League's peace representative, received the Italian delegates in the new palace of the League in an effort to learn Rome's attitude. With Dessye reported occupied by the Italians, Geneva saw increased dlfiicultles in negotiating peace "within the spirit of the covenant." one opinion expressed here was that Mussolini is “stalling for time" and that before the annual torren- tial rains set in in Ethiopia he hopes to clinch his military tri- umphs by the occupatlon of Addis Ababa itself.
