LEAGUE URGES THAT
ENJOYS TAKE ACTION
Seeks Aid Of Allied Council in the
Greco-ItaIian Dispute Over
Preparations.

Geneva. - Despite the abstention
from the decision Of Italy, the Council
of the League of Nations took the first
concrete step toward Identifying itself
with the Greco-Italian crisis by for
warding to the Council of Ambassa-
doris at Paris bulletin urging them
to proceed with an inquiry into the.
assassinations at Epirus.
All the members Of the council, ex~
cept the Italian who opposed the
proposition and the Frenchman who
suggested delay, were in favor of ap-
pending eight points indicating how
Greece should meet Premier Mussoli-
mis- demands. Ultimately it was
agreed only the first four of these sug-
gestions should be sent so that the
Ambassadors might see precisely how
Italy is acting.
In long duel between Signor Salan-
ORA, the Italian delegate, and Lord
Robert Cecil, in which the former tried
to prevent the report from reaching
the Ambassadors before their meeting,
the latter won. Salandra insisted on
reading the proofs before the despatch
was sent, whereupon the Britisher ar
ranged to have them at the Italians
hotel after dinner.
In general it cannot be said the
League has yet climbed down in any
important way. 1t is likely the rest
of the month will be occupied with
this dispute and, above all, with the
question of the competency of the
League.
Lord Robert said this would have
to be thrashed out in full, and he was
supported by Belgium, Sweden and
Uruguay. But for the next week or so
nothing very dramatic may be expect
ed. After this the fun will begin, as
the small nations will insist that Italy
live up to the pact.
