A government spokesman, announc- that members of the class of 1912 had received mobilization or- ders, referred to Ethiopia’s “evident attitude of hostility.” He added that while Italy is pre- pared to name conciliators to attempt. to promote a peaceful settlement of the East African dispute under the arbitration treaty of 1928, she would not do so until assurance of like in- tention had been received from Em- Peror Haile Selassie. It was learned British pressure to force conciliation and prevent the issue from embarrassing the League of Nations council was far from pleas- ing to Premier Mussolini, but that he finally acceded to the conciliation Proposals, when France backed them. The British were said to have made it clear that every possible move should be made to avert an open clash at Geneva or any action in tion will begin Thursday morning/|in Africa which might lead to hostilities. The action of Great Britain and France drew a sharply critical re- sponse from the semi-official press. The Giornale D'Italia asserted it “would be contrary not only to the legitimate right to defend her men- aced interests but also to the pur- pose of that conciliation for which Britain hopes.” Informed quarters in London view- ed Italy's conciliation concession as having averted the® possibility that Great Britain and France would have been forced to join in “rebuking” Italy had the Ethiopian dispute been permitted to go before the league. (Immediate action by the league was demanded in a new note which Ethiopia sent to Geneva, charging again that Italy's military activities Aprica “endanger international peace.” The note urged the league to deal with the issue at the assembly session opening May 20 and demand- ed immediate arbitration of the con- troversy.)
