A ANGELL SAYSU.S, TO FEEL CONQUEST Peace Prize Winner Holds Strong British Stand Would Nip War. BY SIR NORMAN ANGELL, Nobel Peace Prize winner, 1933. (Copyright. 1035. by the Associated Press.) NORTHEY ISLAND. Maldon, Essex, England, August 26.—The results of a war between Italy and Ethiopia, in s0 far as they affect Great Britain and America, can hardly be in doubt. Italy would, of course, conquer Eth- fopia, but not easily, and its subse- quent occupation of the country will be extremely exhausting. Germany will In consequence have a free hand in Austria. Weakening Italy will be one step toward the re-establishment of the military hegemony of Europe through Germany which both Britain and America fought the great war to frustrate. The menace to democracy will be infinitely greater than would have been involved in a victory for pre- war Germany. Another unchecked successful assertion of Fascist military power, coming after those made first by Japan and Germany—the latter | having been able to defy the victors | with complete impunity within a few | years of their victory—will, in fact, | reduce the remaining great demo- cratic states of Europe. France and Great Britain, to something like im- potence. Weakens Empire Position. The position of the British empire will be weakened in any case by the planting of an “expansionist” and an intensely militarist state, possessed of 8 particular political morality which inspires an Italian policy, along a line vital to imperial communication com- manding the headwaters of the blue Nile and establishing a new frontier marching 100 miles with the frontiers | of British colonies. A still more important considera- tion is that Italian aggression upon | the only remaining independent | African state will add the most in- flammable fuel to the flames of | Asiatic and African nationalism which | must sooner or later place the whole dmperial structure in danger. The intensification of race feeling will cer- tainly have American repercussion. Sooner or later Britain will be compelled to intervene. As guardian and chief shareholder of the Suez Canal, the position of facilitating and making profit out of an act of eggres- sion which defies all international rights and which also undermines | Britain’s own security, will become too ‘absurd for indefinite acceptance by the British people. “Intervention” mustn't be read as naval or military operations. It may consist of closing the 1, leaving the next step to Italy. America won't be dragged in in the sense that she | was dragged in in 1917. But sooner | or later she will be compelled to co- | German, which he was able to put to ing in Bolzano for either tonight or operate with other states in with- | holding from Italy not merely muni- | tions in the last stage of manufacture, but those things indispensable to war. Seces Ultimate Co-Operation. The United States not only is a| signatory but the actual initiator of the treaty declaring non-defensive war a crime against mankind. To| supply a criminal with means for his | crime or to refuse to co-operate in checking or making difficult what America herself declared to be a crime will, as the situation is clari- fied, come as a shock to the Amer- ijcan conscience. There will ulti-| mately be co-operation between Great | Britain and America to stop the sup- | ply of means for carrying on oper- aticns which before long may well be- come little more than senseless murder. Britain could have stopped the whole drift toward war if she had been given a lead modeled on the | action of American statesmen some- thing over a century ago; if, in other | words, she had declared a principle | of the covenant to be her Monroe Doctrine. The covenant declares a state in the circumstances of the Italo-Ethiopian dispute which goes to war with one member of the League goes to war with all. Italy knows unhappily we are in two minds in defense of the covenant. Upon that uncertainty and that divi- eion of will, the military dictator is ready to gamble. ] REHEARSE FOR PLAY Drama Groups to Offer Shaw's | Work Tomorrow. = Final reh-arsals for the presenta- tion of George Bernard Shaw's *Androcles and the Lion” at the Syl- van Theater tomorrow night are being held today and tonight at the ‘Washirigton Monument grounds.

IL DUGE WATCHES BIG GUNS BLAZE “Attack” in North Italy| Found Costly in Men Against Stubborn Defense. By the Associated Press. WITH THE ITALIAN ARMY, BOLZANO, Italy, August 26.—Benito Mussolini, chief of Italy’s government and armed forces, came here today and entered immediately into the vast military maneuvers under way on the Austrian frontier. More than 10,000 Fascists from Bolzano and neighboring towns gath- ered in the public square, cheering him repeatedly in a great demonstra- tion. In the afternoon he went into the area where 150,000 soldiers are en- gaged in maneuvers and chatted lengthily over technical subjects with his generals. It was not far from here that Il Duce worked as a young editor when | this territory was under Austrian| domination. Twenty miles from here | is the jail where he was imprisoned | for several months by Austria fcr| writing inflammatory articles against the Austrian government. | Learned German There. He owes today to that imprisonment | much of his excellent knowledge ot use during the last two years in his encounters with Reichsfuehrer Hitler, | the late Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss | of Austria and the present chancelloz, | Kurt Schusehnigg. | The Bolzano countryside is plas- | tered with tens of thousands of posters 1n red, white and green in celebration of Il Duce's first visit to this territory since he became’ premier. The threat of war in East Africa can be seen in these posters. One read, “Ethiopia for us!” An- Mussolini arrived in time to witness a further advance of two columns of the Italian Army, which is seeking to pierce the frontier held by the “red" forces. “Attack” Proves Costly in Men. The Trento motorized division, with | latest military development, was | thrown into the “blues” attack and | advanced in the face of an obstinate | “red” defense of the mountainside. Thus far, the maneuvers have, taught the general staff that an ad- vance across the Austrian frontier would cost them heavily in men against such a defense as the “Reds” are putting up. ‘The troops today exhibited the ef- fectiveness of the chemical which, | spread on the ground, will burn the | feet of Ethiopians in the event of war in East Africa.

CHICAGO, August 26.—Maora Jane Thompson, 9-year-oid heiress to a | $1,000,000 estate, today was reported | missing by her grandparents after the | slaying Saturday of her father, Edwin Degroot Thompson, at Albuquerque, N. Mex. Mr. and Mrs. Hugh H.

ANNAPOLIS, Md., August 26. —A boy about 10 years old rushed into the accident ward of the Anna, Emergency Hospital yesterday and stuck out a badly swollen tongue. “M-m-m-m,” he mumbled, fidgeting with pain, as doctors and nurses tried to find out what had happened to him. When ice had reduced the swelling of his tongue, he told them. While he was eating, he ¢aid, a bee flew into his mouth nd stung him. He left as quickly as he came, and nobody learned his name.

(Continued From First Page.) elsewhere, in exchange for a pledge from the French government to leave Italy's hands free in East Africa, the newspaper sald Mussolini replied: “It is true that as a consequence of agreements July 1 all differences between ourselves and France were | settled.” Other informed sources said today | that Mussolini, now attending the military maneuvers in the North, had called an extraordinary cabinet meet- | tomorrow. Practically namely, Il Duce, his ministers and the 11 undersecretaries—are in the Bol- zano area for the maneuvers. It was sald that the cabinet would consider the international situation as it de- | volves on the Italo-Ethiopian crisis. Further, it was stated that the meeting would be secret and that probably no communique would be the whole cabinet— | | issued. : Germans Want Colonies, Too. In Germany, advices sald, Dr. Schwerin von Rosigk, minister of the ir arior, made it clear that the Ger- mans’ erstwhile “need” for colonies was fasi developing into Germany's “demand.” He was reported to have | sald that when the question of re- | vision of colonial questions was dis- | cussed internatio~ally Germany would not be satisfied to allow her expansion desires to be ignored. | The British war office has ordered | 1,200 troops to embark in the steamer | Neuralia from Southampton to Malta | in the next few days to reinforce gar- | risons at British key points in the Mediterranean. Public air raid sta- tions have been ordered built in Malta and the populace has been instructed in protection against gas attacks. The British Mediterranean fleet has been ordered to leave Thursday for positions within swift striking dis- tance of the Suez Canal. The aircraft carrier Glorious suddenly left Gibral- tar today for Malta. The war office also announced today that the fixed defenses at Aden, Arabia, as well as at Malta, would be brought up to strength already approved. Troops are being assembled at Southampton for dispatch to these two posts—key points along England’s “lifeline of the empire,” which begins at Gibraltar and ends at Aden after the Suez Canal passage. Spain Fears for Morocco. Spain, as well as Britain, is worried about her colonial possessions in Af- rica. Spain fears an uprising of Mo- roccan tribesmef may result from the general anti-European feeling in sym- pathy with Ethiopa. While officials said Spain is determined to defend her neutrality in any general war, she has reinforced her Gibraltar garrison and placed dumps of munition there ready for speedy transport to Spanish Mo- rocco. The London Post today, under the heading, “America Passes By,” lashes bill, saying: “Ever since the days of Napoleon the United States policy has insisted on the freedom of the seas, with fre- quently embarrassing emphasis. Now all of a sudden she has veered to the opposite extreme. Recalls Kellogg Instigated Pact. ] “Wasn‘t America one of the signa- torjes to the peace treaties? Wasn't it the American Secretary of State (Frank B. Kellogg) whp instigated the so-called peace pact? “Having undertaken interventions of this kind, can she legitimately dis- claim all responsibility for the conse- quences? There may well come a turn of events which will presently compel America to abandon her mode of exag- gerated isolationism.” United States Senator James P. Pope, in England to obtain informa- tion concerning the Italo-Ethiopian situation, conferred with Sir Norman Angell, leading British peace advocate, yesterday and further explained his views on the dispute. He said he favored “full utiliza- tion” of both the League of Nations and the World Court “for the pur- pose of removing the causes of war, settling disputes by peaceful means and for stopping wars, if possible, after they are started.” GREECE IS CAUTIOUS. ATHENS, August 26 (#).—The gov- ernment today refused to prohibit Italian airplanes from flylng over Greece. The refusal was in answer t0 an Ethioplan protest and stated such ban was possible when no had been declared. . no war | the Russia (Continued From First Page.) American recognition of Russia, which has been a subject of hot debate on Capitol Hill and elsewhere, might be withdrawn if the Russian government does not do all in its power to halt Communist activities in”the United States. The note itself, delivered by Am- bassador Willlam C. Bullitt in Mos- cow, did not go so far as to speak of possible breaking off of relations. It said the United States “anticipates the most serious consequences if the government of the Upion of Soviet | Scocialist Republics is unwilling, or unable, to take appropriate measures to prevent further acts in disregard of the solemn pledge given by it to Government of the United States.” Await Litvinoff’s Return. Much appeared to depend on the nature of the reply which Moscow dispatches to Washington. When the reply will be received was not known here. It was believed that perhaps the Kremlin would await the return to the Russian capital of Maxim Litvinoff, foreign commissar, now out of the capital. The American note yesterday call- ed attention to the pledges which Litvinoff gave to President Roosevelt in November, 1933, when Russia was recognized. In brief, Russia promised to prevent Communists under her control from interfering with internal affairs of the United States. The American note called atten- tion to the recent meeting in Moscow of the Communist International, world organization of the party. Dis- | patches have been telling how speak- ers at the Communist congress told of plans to intensify Red activity in America. Attending the meeting were American Communist leaders, includ- | ing Earl Browder and William Z. Foster, present and past heads re- | spectively of the party in the United States. Tinkham Asks Break. Though many of those who have spoken their minds on the subject of Russian recognition were out of the Capital over the week end, there were a few comments. “The President should sever diplo- matic relations with Russia,” said | Representative Tinkham, long known as a critic of the Soviets. “He is acting too late and not with vigor enough for the protection of the United States and tis institutions. “The Union of Soviets is a union of homicidal terrorists. Since its rec- ognition over two years ago it has violated every pledge given by its Ambassador Litvinoff to obtain rec- ognition. “Even at the meeting of its offi- cial government agency held recently in Moscow, it declared its intention to foment social disorders in this country and advised seizure of con- trol of our labor unions for political purposes.” Senator Dickinson, Republican, of Towa, said there was “no question buv that recognition of Russia was a mis- take,” while Chairman McReynolds of the House Foreign Affairs Committee said his information was “that the Soviet government has violated every pledge of non-interferen® here which it made as a basis for being recog- nized.” * Reports on Internationale. Full reports have been com:ng to the State Department about the pro- ceedings of the Communist Interna- ticnale. This is an organization for which the Soviet Government has in- sisted it has no responsibility. On the other hand legislators here have ar- gued thal Russian-leaders hold bigh positions in the Internationale and that Russia, in effect, controls it. The Internationale’s declared aim is to overthrow “the international ‘bour- geolsie.” One speaker at the recent Moscow congress was Sam Darcy of San Francisco, who spoke of the prob- ability of a new seamen’s strike on the Pacific Coast and said: “By the strength of all sections of the Communist Internationale there will be assured a close co-operation of seamen and port workers of all ccun- tries in the general, decisive struggle against the bourgeosie.” Moscow Is Silent. ‘MOSCOW, August 26 (#).—A United States’ protest against “the interfer- ence by foreign countries in their in- ternal affairs” was received in silence today by Soviet officials and the Soviet press. Official quarters had absolutely noth- ing to say in answer to questions put this morning regarding the note de- livered yesterday by Ambassador Wil- liam C. Bullitt of the United States. These questions included whether any other countries had taken action similar tothat of the United States. Rumors that the American protest would be followed’ by some such step on the part of two or three other na- tions had not been confirmed shortly after noon. It was stated at the foreign office LAWYERS' BRIEFS RUSH PRINTING BYRON S. ADAMS FOR WAR ON RHIN Big Guns Hide Behind Near- ly Impregnable Forts, but Laval Still Hopes. By the Associated Press. . PARIS, August 26.—With French artillery trained on the German border, Premier Laval was said by his advis- ers today to be hoping for peace, but prepared for the ,consequences of an Italian war against Ethiopia. The premier was reported doing everything possible to avold the word “war” and to steer the League of Na- tions away from sanctions against ag- gressors. He was said to be confident that there would be no declarations of we and hopeful that Premier Musso- lini's venture would be taken as a co- lonial punitive expedition. French officials sald that gunfire in Ethiopia might clear the atmosphere for a settlement between the dark em- pire and Italy. They explained that a certain amount of fighting would do two things—satisfy the Italian troops’ desire for victorious combat and con- vince Emperor Halle Selassie that the Italians mean business. Troops Called Out Early. French troops have been summoned prematurely in what military experts call a dress rehearsal for war. These troops have reinforced the vast fort- ress system from Montmedy to Mul- house, ready to bar-any invasion while the air force watches the sky. When the League of Nations Coun- cil meets September 4 to consider the Italo-Ethiopian conflict, France will be ready at the German frontier in steel and concrete forts extending for 135 miles, with mobile garrisons in marching order scattered behind. Six weeks ahead of time, 20,000 con- scripts have been called to the colors and instructed to report at the Rhine- | land forts next Saturday. How many | men will be sent to the forts has not been annoinced, but it is estimated that there will be 80,000, and nearly 250,000 others scattered at French | garrisons throughout France. Big Guns Underground. The camoufiaged, buried forts, cost- ing 5,000,000,000 francs, are scattered strategically to enable their gunfire to cover every foot of ground where in- vaders might cross.

The reaction in foreign circles sym- | pathetic to the Soviet was that the protest leaves a loophole for le- ment, inasmuch as the “serious conse- quences” mentioned in the next to the last paragraph of the note were de- clared to be anticipated if the Soviet government was unable to take meas- ures to “prevent further acts” in dis- regard of the Soviet pledge to the United States It was pointed out in these circles that the seventh congress of the Third | Internationale now was ended and it | was likely to be a long time before the next assembly. The morning newspapers today failed even to mention that Bullitt had delivered his Government’s emphatic protest. The silence of the press was re- flected in the attitude of official quar- ters, where no comment was offered on the note to Vice Commissar Kres- tinsky, in acting charge of foreign affairs. - The absence of Litvinoff, who made the pledge on behalf of his govern- ment, was believed partly responsible for the official silence. Litvinoff pledged his government to prohibit activities seeking to change the political or social order in the United States. Some of the speakers at the Comintern outlined Commu- nistic aims in the United States, but te note made no specific reference to any statements. Other Protests Reported. LONDON, August 26 (#).—Reports were received here today that Eng- land, Italy and Latvia had protested informally to Russia over the activi- ties of the Third Internationale before | the United States protest was made in Moscow yesterday. It was stated that England made a verbal protest to the Soviet just before the close of the seventh con- gress August 20, and that was not the first British protest.

The State Department yester- day made pubiic the following text of the United States protest to Soviet Russia against violations of pledges concerning Communist activities in the United States: Under instructions from my Government, I have the honor to call attention to the activities, in- volving Interference in the inter- nal affairs of the United States, which have taken place on the territory of the Union of Soviet Soctalist Republics in connection with the seventh Al-World Con- gress of the Communist Interna- tional, and, on behalf of the Gov- ernment of the United States, to lodge a most emphatic protest against this flagrant violation of the pledge given by the Govern- ment of the Union of Soviet So- cialist Republics on November 16, 1933, with respect to non-interfer- ence in the internal affairs of the United States. Pledged Not to Interfere With U. S. Affairs. ‘That pledge, which was given by the Government of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics as a result of the discussion which took place prior to the establishment of diplomatic relations between the United States and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, reads in full as follows: “Washington, November 16, 1933. “My Dear Mr. President: “I have the honor to inform you that coincident with the establish- ment of diplomatic relations be- tween our two governments it will be the fixed policy of the Govern- ment of the Union of Soviet So- clalist Republics: “l.

In view of the fact that the aim and activity of an organization, such as the Congress of the Com- munist International, functioning on the territory of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, cannot be unknown to the governmert of the Union of Soviet Socialist Re- publics, it does not seem necessary to present material to show the aim of the Congress of the Com- munist International with respect to the political or social order of the United States or to quote from the published proceedings of the congress to show its activity relative to the internal affairs of the United States, as evidenced in the “See ETZ and See Better” ‘Without seeing well your boy or girl cannot do good work at school.

BALTIMORE, August 26.—Conflict between Works Progress Administra- tion and Public Works Administration programs in Maryland have been re- moved in a series of conferences between heads of the two Federal arrangements. The terms of the agreement reached were disclosed here today, after it had been approved in Washington. Prancis H. Dryden W. P. A. head, and Abel Wolman, director of the State P. W. A, drafted the agreement in a series of week end conferences. The crux of the new arrangements lies in “so adjusting certain county programs, by proper joint negotia- tions, so that each county may parti- cipate in Federal contributions in the same relative degree and in con- sonance with the formula defined by the President of the United States in the case of the allocations to Balti- more City.” 'OPPORTUNITY TO SAVE 10% TO 25% ON DENTAL SERVICE Dr. Carleton Vaughan, a dentist of long experience, known ability and established reputation, says: discussion at the congress of the policies and activities of the Com- munist organization in the United States and the determination and formulation by the congress of policies to be carried out in the United States by the Communist organization in the United States. Nor does it appear necessary to list the names of representatives or officials of the Communist or- ganization in the United States who were active at the above-men- tioned congress and whose admis- sion into the territory of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was, of course, known to the govern- ment of the Union of Soviet So- cialist Republics. Resentment of U. S. Citizens Is Stressed. As I have pointed out to the people’s commissar for foreign af- fairs when discussing earlier viola- tions of the undertaking of No- vember 16, 1933, the American peo- ple resent most strongly interfer- ence by foreign countries in their ternal affairs, regardless of the nature or probable result of such interference, and the Government of the United States considers the strict fulfillment of the pledge of non-interference an essential pre- requisite to the maintenance of normal and friendly relations be- tween the United States and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The Government of the United States would be lacking in candor if it failed to state frankly that it anticipates the most serious conse- quences if the government of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics 1s unwilling, or unable, to take ap- propriate measures to prevent fur- ther acts in disregard of the sol emn pledge given by it to the Go ernment of the United States. 1 may add that it is a source of regret that in the present interna- tional situation the development of {riendly relations between the Rus- sian and American peoples will in- evitably be precluded by the con- tinuance on territory of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, in violation of the promise of the government of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, of activities in- volving interference in the internal affairs of the American people. “Until Septem- ber while so many of my pa- tients are out of the city for the Summer, I will make a reduction in my fees on all Dental Restora- tions (full and partial sets of teeth, sanitary removable and fixed bridges, etc.) of 10 to 25 per cent.” “Free x-ray pictures, free extrac- tions, free examinations and diagnosis.
