Paris, Aug. 25.

Major Clement A. Attlee, Limehouse Labourite M.P., is visiting Paris to discuss the Ethiopian crisis with French Socialists.

He declares that British and French Labourites are in complete agreement with regard to the necessity for imposing immediate arbitration by the League of Nations upon Italy and Ethiopia and taking sanctions against the ultimate aggressor in Africa.

The French Socialists are suggesting that M. Maxim Litvinoff, the Russian Commissar for Foreign Affairs and President of the League Council, should

Washington, Aug. 25.

The House of Representatives leaders have re- fused to accept the Senate's amendments to the De- ficiency Bill, declining either to bring them to a vote or to appoint conferees to meet the Senate conferees thereon. A warning was issued to the Senate that un- less the amendments were eliminated, the Bill would die. The Bill includes $75,000,000 for the administration of the Social Security Law, and small amounts for the administration of the Guffey Coal Bill, the Neutrality Bill, and other measures.

Following the refusal of the House to accept the amendments, the Senate reconvened and asked the House to return a resolution calling for an adjourn- ment at midnight. The Senate postponed the adjourn- ment of Congress until noon on Monday, after rescind- ing its prior approval of the adjournment resolution. Only a few minutes remained before Congress would be automatically adjourned when the Senate acted.
