EDEN REPORTS ON ROME PARLEY

BRITISH OFFER MADE TO AVERT WAR

London, July 1.

Britain's sterile offer to Italy, made in order to avert what seemed an inevitable clash between Rome and the Ethiopian Empire and to bring about a final settlement of the dispute between these two peoples, was described by Mr. Anthony Eden, Minister for League of Nations Affairs, in the House of Commons to-day.

Mr. Eden was rendering an account of his recent visits to Paris and Rome, during which he sought to re- lieve the Continental capitals of any anxiety respecting the Anglo-German naval accord and the trend of future British'policy.

The British proposal to Italy, he said, was that Britain should offer to Abyssinia a strip of territory in British Somaliland which would give Abyssinia access to the sea. This proposal was intended" to facilitate such territorial or economic concessions by Abyssinia to Italy as might be involved.

It was agreed that Great Britain would ask nothing in the way of concessions in return for this arrangement except grazing rights for her nomadle tribes in such territory na might be ceded to Italy.

Only the gravity of the situation could justify the concession of British territory without

EXCITING MATCHES AT WIMBLEDON

HELEN WILLS-MOODY IN NARROW VICTORY

London, July 1.

Donald Budge, young American threat for the Wimbledon crown, to-day advanced to the semi-final round by defeating the Englishman, Bunny Austin, in four stiff sets. Young Budge thus joins the champion, Fred Perry of England, Jack Crawford of Australia, and Baron Gottfried von Cramm of Germany, in the ranks of the mighty. Between these four is the fight for the world's most coveted tennis title.

Budge won to-day in convincing style, even though he lost the first set and although Austin fought him all the way. The very fact that Austin was playing in such form as to take a substantial lead in the begin-

ning made the American's victory the more impressive.

Earlier in the day Perry had won his way to the semi-final by defeating Menzel, the Czecho-Slovakian star, in straight sets. Von Cramm advanced after four sets against the Australian McGrath, Crawford disposed of Sidney Wood, one of America's leading players.
