Geneva, July 1 The Swiss federal government has decided not to prosecute the Italian journalists who participated in yester- -day demonstration against the Em- pet Haile Selassie in the hall of The League of Nations Assembly.
The men will be expelled from Switzerland and conducted across the frontier.
The Italian Minister to Switzerland requested that the protester and journalists be given a reasonable amount of time before they are ex- pelled and conducted to the nearest -point-on-the-Italian frontier. It is

Geneva, July 1.
The British Government's view that the League of Nations Assembly should not in any way recognise Italy's conquest of Ethiopia was declared this after- noon, before the Assembly, by the Foreign Secretary, Mr. Anthony Eden.
In contrast to the South African standpoint, the Canadian High Commissioner, Mr. Vincent Massey, said it seemed clear there was no appreciable number of effective members of the League willing to undertake whatever compulsion, including war, might be neces sary to secure the original objective of sanctions.
He recalled that the imposition of sanctions was first proposed by Canada, but while greatly regretting their failure in the joint attempt to protect a weak fellow-member of the League, there would now appear to be no practical alternative for Canada but to support the dicontinuance of these penalties.--Reuter.

The British Government, has been in touch with the United State Govern- ment in regard to the general problem of smuggling in North China, states Lord Cranborne, Permanent Under- Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, in a written roply to questions ie Parliament by Sir John Wardlaw Mine.
Lord Cranborne also states that he understands representations have begu made by the United States Govern- ment to the Japanese Government with

Replying to Me, James Rankin, Lord Cranborne wald the Government had received no information confirming the press reports of an attack upon the Commissioner of Customs at Taingiao, though it is understood a Japanese mob unsuccessfully attacked the Cus toms House there on the night of June 26.
