FRANCE SATISFIED BY ENGLAND'S NOTE

Rome, Sept. 30.

Newspapers are to-day following up the Cabinet's cue, and saying that the present conflict in Europe is between Italy and England, and not merely between Italy and the League of Nations or Ethiopia.

Signor Gayda, always a well-informed and often officially-inspired writer, accused England of animating Geneva against Italy. "Otherwise," he adds, "the League's intervention would not be so threatening." Reuter.

ANSWER WITH ONE VOICE

London, Sept. 30.

Sir Samuel Hoare's reply to the French enquiry on Britain's attitude towards the League Covenant has evoked a single-voiced reaction in the British pross. It is considered a further unmistakable proof of the Government's determination to support the Covenant as low as the Covenant remains effective.

It is also considered an adequate reply to Signor Mussolini's "over- tures" in Saturday's communique, in which was Buggested that

Memel, Sept. 29.

To-day's polling arrangements here broke down badly to the dis-i muy of the Lithuanian officials and trouble of a serious nature was only averted by the prompt order of the emergency Cabinet meeting to continue the polling as long as it was necessary.

Geneva, Sept. 29.

In spite of the fact that the Secretary-General of the League of Nations, M. Avenol, has received a tele- gram from the Emperor of Ethiopia warning that that country has ordered general mobilisation, there will be no Council or Committee of Thirteen meeting before October 10, it is said.

League circles are worried, believing that if neutral observers are to be sent to Ethiopia to determine which side is responsible for the outbreak of hostilities there is no time to be lost. Ethiopia declares that although mobilisation has been ordered, it will not prevent the following out of the instruction to troops to remain 30 kilometres from the frontiers, Reuter declares.

Meanwhile, there have been intensive military activities on both sides. A United Press despatch from a correspondent with the Italian Army says:
