TO AID ABYSSINIA? WISHES TO RAISE BRIGADE TO TAKE PART IN "THIS UNJUST WAR”

London, To-day.

A group of members of the House of Com- mons belonging to all the parties attended a dinner designed to enable the Abyssinian Minis- ter, Mr. Martin, to state his country's case.

The Labour member for Pontypridd, Mr. D. L. Rhys Davies. presiding. declared that the League was probably on its last trial.

+

The Egyptian ex-Minister. Moharrain Pasha and the ex- Speaker of the Egyptian Parliament. Riffat Pasha, both ex- pressed sympathy with Abyssinia and thanked the British Gov-1 ernment for its efforts to prevent war.

Mr. Martin detailed the recent improvements in Abyssinia, especially regarding slavery and justice The root cause of the trouble, be said, was that Italy wanted to take over the country ostensibly to civilise it.

The Abyssinian Minister, Mr. Martin, interviewed by Reu- ter, said that tentative negotiations had been broached with in- dividuals with a view to placing a £2000,000 loan in Britain or America for the development of Abyssinia.
