litate

The British proposal was an offer to Abyssinia of- of territory in British Somaliland which would give Abyssinian access to the sea. This proposal was intended to fa sach territorial and economic concessions by Abyssinia to Italy as might be involved in the agreed settlement

Britain asked for no concessions in retum for this arrange- ment except grazing rights for her nomadic tribes in such ter- sitory as might be ceded to Italy. Only the gravity of the situation could justify the concession of British territory

without an equivalent return.
