Italy Takes Offensive As League Meets to Survey Peace Outlook The question of another American oil and mineral concession remained to be settled. This is held by Leo Y. Chertok, New York broker, who said he received the concession as security for a loan of $1,000,000 to be raised by Oct. 17. The Standard Vacuum issue was settled after George 8. Walden, chair- man, and H, Dundas, vice president, called at the state department for advice, They conferred with Wallace Murray, chief of the near eastern di- vision, and told him that Francis Rickett, British promoter, had acted for them in negotiating the conces- sion with Emperor Haile Selassie. Accepted Hull’s Advice Walden and Dundas communicated with associates in New York and then informed Secretary Hull they had decided to accept his advice. They said the Ethiopian emperor would be notified they were withdrawing from the deal. Observers here took the view that Hull expressed his opinion of the mat- ter to the oil men in much stronger language than was indicated by his Official statement of the conversa- tions. The Standard Vacuum company is a foreign subsidiary jointly owned by the Socony-Vacuum Oil company and the Standard Oil company of New Jersey. The Standard-Vacuum in turn operates the African Exploration and Development company which ob- tained the concession. At Geneva Eden, Laval and Aloisi were trying to agree in advance on the communication Eden and Laval and presumably Aloisi would make at the opening of the public session of the council Wednesday. Today's ses- sion was to be closed. Agree to Invite Italian ‘When Eden called up Laval to dis- cuss reports Eden would deliver con- cerning the unsuccessful Paris con- versations, he suggested it might be desirable to ask Aloisi into the con- ference. Laval telephoned to Aloisi! to agree. The meeting gave rise to a number THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1935 was lessened. Whether or not this was true, the Italian openly pleased by the news from Washington that American interests had abandoned their Ethiopian con- cession. ‘The league of nations was called to deliberate the Italo-Ethiopian conflict in closed session beginning at 4 p.m. The problem concerned Italy’s right to expansion and Ethiopia’s charge that such expansion threatens the in- dependence of the Ethiopian empire. Rivalry Causes Fear But gravest fears were centered, not around the fate of Ethiopie, but around the rivalry of the great pow- ers. Great Britaln—down off its cus- jtomary umpire’s seat—is definitely in the arena struggling for position. Eden was understood on his ar- rival to be prepared to move for sanc- | tions against Italy if Il Duce per- sisted in his military venture in East Africa. Now, informed circles said, Great Britain’s position as a peace arbiter is questioned by Italy because Francis M. Rickett, a British subject, nego- for an American corporation. Britain’s policy is believed to have Premier Laval of France to join Eden in @ report to the council on the un- Paris, called to solve the Italo-Ethiop- jan dispute.

Petersburg. Tampa, the state's major cigar manufacturing city, felt the fury of the passing storm as did Clearwater. Boca Grande reported the highest estimated wind velocity on the west coast—100 miles an hour. Plans were made to establish @ bureau at Tavernier to identify the dead. Dr. William De Kleine, medical di- rector of the Red Cross, was ordered to proceed here from St. Louis im- miediately to assist in organizing the relief work. The coast guard at Fort Lauder- dale advised twenty “river persons” were marooned on Cape Sable and called on the seventh naval district to evacuate them. Jack Daniels, an FERA towboat captain, said he counted 15 bodies at the upper Matecumbe camp and he believed many others had been wash- from page one ed to sea.
