The Assembly adjourned yesterday until noon to-day after adopting a resolution consti- tuting the co-ordinating committee. Austria and Hungary abstained from voting, while Italy was the only opponent.
Mr. Tedle Bawariate, the Abyssinian representative, during the preceding debate insisted on the need for energetic and in- mediate action to deal with this "atrocious war conducted by a pitiless foe and said it was not war, but massacre, owing to Italy's superior armaments. He was ready to accept all pro- cedure on which the League might decide Ethiopia was ready to conclude an honourable peace, but he must proclaim that it would defend to the death its independence and integrity. It will not yield to force which would put a premium on aggres- sion and be a defiance of international morality
