GENEVA PEACEMAKERS AT COMPLETE DEADLOCK

ITALY'S ATTITUDE

UNYIELDING

APPREHENSIVENESS IN FRANCE

FEARED ITALIANS MAY QUIT GENEVA

Geneva, Sept. 10. Complete deadlock has resulted from the unyield- ing attitude of Baron Aloisi, spokesman for the Italian Government. The League's special Committee of Five has decided not to continue it work of exploration, but will await the report of its sub-committee on the Italian memorandum with respect to alleged violations of treaties and pledges and frontiers by the Ethiopian people.

Unless something unexpected happens, the Com-| mittee will meet again on Thursday and draw up a re- part for the Council, with the suggestions of the Com- mittee members, which looks suspiciously like "recom mendations" provided under Article XV of the League Govenant

By this article, which deals with disputes between members of the League, the Council is empowered to judge between them and to bind them to its unanimous will.

HORROR & SORROW ON EVERY HAND

CONDOLENCES FROM FOES

New York, Sept. 10:

Horror and sorrow are express- ed throughout the country at the assassination of Senator Huey P

Long, the Loutsinna political mag- Bale. Deep-scated political dif- ferences are being sunk before the tragic spectacle of this death by violence.

Mr. Harold Ickes, Secretary of the Interior, one of the late Sena- tor Long's most outspoken oppon- ents, states that the Louisiana "dictator's" death is regrettable from every point of view.

He hoped, he said, that America had long ago passed the stage when political issues were decided by assassination.

Mr. Hirota is reported to have assured Sir Frederick that Japan is ready to do her utmost in co- operation with the British Government in connection with the proposed Chinese economic rehabilitation, if Britain approaches Japan with a concrete plan based on Sir Frederick's coming survey.
