London, July 31.1 Since the arrival of the French and British delegations at Genova this morning, private discussions on the Italo-Abyssinian dispute have been proceeding there almost con- tinuously,

The League Council has held Ita first meeting which, as usual, was private, only delegates and their secretaries being present.
According to Geneva press messages the Council meeting was n.very short, lasting only half an hour. On the proposal of M. Laval the delegates agreed to meetTM In public session at 5 o'clock to-morrow (Thursday) evening and meantime private negotiations continue be- tween Italy and Abyssinia and two most interested countries, France and Great Britain.-British Wire- leen.

READY TO FIGHT
Addis Ababa, Aug. 1. The Emperor of Ethiopla is prepared to fight to the denth.
His country is now one vast drill ground and the martial atmosphere prevails. Civilians of all walks of life are soldiering, while the army proper prepares to take the fleld in defence of the country in the 'event of an attack being launched.
Interviewed by the United Presa oficials said the Government was carefully watching developments at Geneva and particularly Great Bri- tain's attitud The Government is primarily concerned with the in- ability to obtain armaments. It is reported to be negotiating a trade agreement with Sweden in order.i to overcome this difficulty.
A spokesman said Ethiopia was willing to give economic concessions for material benefits but would fight against any such concessions as thono required by Italy.-United
