BENEFICENT ACTIVITY

IN ETHIOPIA

Geneva, June 29.

The latest Italian note will be communicated to the new President of the League of Nations Assembly to-morrow.

The note rejects the League's condemnation of Italy in her Ethiopian adventure as unwarranted. It draws a parallel between Italy's beneficent activities in Ethiopia with those exercised by mandatory powers under the Versailles Treaty.

Italy denies that she has any intention of exploiting the natives of Ethiopia and declared an "open door" policy will be maintained.

The document expresses Italy's readiness hence- forth to act in the League in the sense and spirit of European co-operation, but she first awaits the lifting of sanctions and the dissolution of defensive groups. born from the application of sanctions, expressing that true collaboration cannot be built without mutual confidence.-Reuter.
