Paris, Dec. 3.

The British and French Governments have decided to submit a new peace plan to Italy before embarking on the ad- mittedly dangerous oil embargo,

The new plan will be based upon the proposals which Signor Benito Mussolini rejected in August, including the scheme for an International Mandate over Ethiopia, with Italy holding the dominant share. It will also include suggestions for the ex- change of Italian and Ethiopian territory, with Ethiopia being given an outlet to the sea, probably through Italian Somaliland. It is said that Signor Mussolini has shown a manifest desire to examine the possibilities.

Although it is emphasised that the plan has not yet been formally drafted, an atmosphere of noticeable optimism prevails.-United Press,

POLICY

(Continued from Page 1) diation meant a rule of force and modern Europe was determined to prevent the tearing up of treaties.

This determination was revealed by recent evests in which a country with which all other countries in Europe had been in terms of friendship, had been declared an aggressor, and economic sanctions had been applied. With reference to the criticism that Britain, had taken too prominent a part in the League's work, Mr. Bald win declared: "A country with in- fluence like
