SPIRITED

DENOUNCEMENT AT GENEVA

Help Withheld In Spite Of Promises

(Special Air Mail Service)

h

London, July 2

Despite a day of manoeuvring to induce the Emperor of Abys- sinia to remain silent at last night's meeting of the League of Nations, and in deflance of an Italian threat to "react strongly" if he spoke, the Negus made what may be his last personal ap- beal to the nations.

11

When the League Assembly met opposition to the Negus ad- dressing the meeting was expressed by representatives of Switzer- land and Hungary. Mr. de Valera declared there was no justi- Rcation for preventing him, and it was left to the Nerus and the President, M. Van Zeeland, Belgium.

The Negus, in his speech, strongly indicted Italy for her use of apolson ras in her conquest of Abyssinia. He described how this was sprayed in a continuous sheet across the countryside, killing women and children as well as his soldiers.

The war, he said, would not have developed it a "certain Govern- ment" had not felt it necessary to be friendly with Italy.

"No Precedent exists for the head of a State appearing before you as I do now," said the Emperor, "but o precedent exists for the disaster which has now befallen our people, in the violation of the laws for- idding national conquest and the terrible poisonous rain of gas,

"It is to defend a people strug- gling to protect an age-old Uberty after having myself taken part in the struggle that I come here.

women.

"I want also to warn the repre- sentatives of the Government here who are responsible for the wel-

of millions of men. fare and children of the deadly peril ut war, and to endeavour to spare them the horrors which my peo- ple have experienced.

"The Italian war came inunderbolt, but now we know that Italy was steadily preparing

for it.

"It is certain that the situa- flon would not have taken the development that it has it a certain Government in Europe had not felt it necessary to ob- tain the friendship of Italy, A secret treaty has really affected `the whole course of events."

SKIN

ERUPTION

Why suffer humiliation from the scrutiny of passers-by? If your face is marred by a disfiguring eruption, an angry rash, or un- sightly blatches, a course of Cuticura treat- ment will quickly clear you skin. Healing starts with the first application. Itching, irritation and smarting stop instantly. Pimples begin to dry up and rashes fade, your mirror shows a visible improvement each day until, in a few days, scarcely a trace of the disfigurement remains.
