 Tn this connection, those sources usually labelled as authoritative" were carefully silen today in regard to whether Mir. Roosevelt believes Landon is the man he must defeat in 1886, and as to whether he has been making plans accordingly.
 But 1t was obvious that the new deal startegists rate the midwestern governor high in the list of possible opponents and already sporadtic fire has been opened at the favorite talking point of Landon's supporters.

League Penalties To
 Start November IS
tcontinuvd from Page l)

Mussolifii receded rieasuraby from the demands he has made.
 No oppuortunity will be neglected to start peace negotiations; but Italy has been tried and condemned as 6 war maker in the first great effort ever made by nations of the world to force c belligerefit nation to make peace.
 Experts believe that within three months Italy will be seriously af- fected, and they have no more doubt that victory in the end will lie with the league in its first at- tempt to enforce the dread article xI of it's covenant banding nations together to aid each other against an aggressor.
 Many Suggestions
 At this mornings meeting of the general staff committee, Chairman Augusto Dc Vasconcellos of Portu' gel suggested November IS for efi' forcement of the boycott-the date that league leaders privately had
 Dusan eubotic of Jugoslayia pointed out that November 18th would fail on Friday and suggested that the committee recommend No. yember iS instead, this was agreed uopn ct once.
 The Hoare-Eden-Aioisi convefsa. ton resulted in an agreement to re. new efforts to lessen growing Brit ish- Italian tension. It failed to ere. ate any basis for termination of tht an-Ehtiiopian war, as expected Hoare explained Britain's position and emphasized that there could bt no (fio) discussions of peace termi to ke concluded without reference te Ethiopia and that failed to harmon. ize with the spirit of the league covenant. Both sides agreed, as be- fore in such conversations, to pur' sue the search for ail accord. Make Up of Penalties It was planned to leave severa sub committees in session until tht next meeting of the penalties com. mittee c month hence, to study anJ problems that might arise and tt supervise the working of the penal. ties imposed. These, with the boy colt to be ordered to-day, comprise steps 1, 2 and 3 of the league perl- alties program:
 IA complete embargo on armi to Italy.
 "A complete financial and cred. 1t boycott.
 3--A boycott on Italian goods ant the stoppage of Q long list of com. modities believed essential to Italy'I industry. Step { will be the withdrawal oi ambassadors and stoppage Of thu teiirist trade.
 But 1t was emphasized that dur. ing all the time of penalizatior every nation will be watching fol an opportunity to start negotiations toward peace. It was certain that any such negotiations would have to be based upon major retreat by Italy from it's position twhen it started to war on Ethiopia.
 The most difficult problem as re- gards the economic penalties wal liquidated last night. The general staff agreed in principle that the boycott ought to cover even ship. ments from Italy under clearing agreements by which nations pro- tect their foreign exchange in theii trade.

 With the Italian Army, Nov. l. Via Asmara, Eritrea, Nov. 2)-(UP) Italian soldiers on the northern front are singing the equivalent of the American World war song Where Do Wo Go From Here" as they await the word to occupy Makale, their next objective.
 Their morale and physical con- dition are excellent after nearly a months work of consolidating and fortifying their positions on the Aduwa front. It was not a rest per- iod.
 The soldiers hope to get an an- swer to the question in their song soon.
 Roads in the rear of the front area are hung with a mile-high curtain of dust from moving col- umns and motor trucks. Important Zone
 Italy's occupation of Makale. 50 miles south of Adigrat, will be of tremendous importance because 1t will place the army within striking distance of the only important highway which joins the Tigre country to Addis Ababa.
 This road ironically enough was constructed by Emperor Halle Sel- assie and it may be an important factor in his downfall if the Ital- ians decide to move over 1t toward Addis Ababa.
 Once the Italians reach the be- ginning of the Addis Ababa road there may be developed the en- tirely new phase of mechanical warfare which has been mentioned use of midget tanks, shoulder high, dashing deeply into the heart of enemy territory toward Adds Ababa.
 Cannot Stop Machines
 Aside from digging elephant traps In tine roads the Philippians can do almost nothing against these fleet armored machines. The Ethiopians already have tried dig. glng holes and covering them lght- Iy with soil tn an effort to trap tanks but this failed because the wrong places were selected and the crews perceived the traps.

of mules are to be used also. 1t is reported, because the difficult ter- rain, desert, barren land and rugged hill, is unsuitable for mechanized transport.
 Serious Development
 Military experts regards the pos- sibility of such Q drive as the most serious development since the out- break of war with Ethiopia.
 It would bring the war home to Great Britain as no other develop ment, perhaps, has done, for Lake Tana is the key to one of the great est irrigation projects ever con- ceived. It is the rising point of the Blue Nile that waters all the Sudan and Egypt.
 Occasional dispatches have re- ported the arrival of @ surprising number of camels in Eritrea. A dispatch from Asnnara Thursday said 5000 had arrived from Italian Libya to transport munitions and foodstuffs. Webb Miller, United TTeSS COTTeSpOluetlb WatAA "iS A""A ian northern army, reported from Asmara Monday that the largest concentration of camels in Africa's history was proceeding in Eritrea He quoted travellers from Khar- town, in the Sudan, as saying that they saw many long caravans, with hundreds of camels in each, swing ing across the broad Sudanese plains without loads.
 To Combat Penalties
 Lake Tana is 150 miles south of the Eritrean frontier and 70 miles east of the Sudan frontier.
 The government, despairing of an honorable peace by negotiation, has made all preparations to combat League of Nations penalties. The country is approaching a real war basis.
 Next Wednesday 46 passenger trains on more important state rail- way lines will cease operation tc

Samuel Hoare and Anthony Eden of the British delegation were in con- ference with Baron Pompeo Aloisi, chief of the Italian delegation.
 Hoare was reported to have urged Aloisi to obtain from Premier Berl- ito Musoslint reasonable" peace proposals before the new penalties went into effect.
 Otherwise, Hoare was said to have argued, settlement of the dispute would be found much more difhcult ofter visiting Hoare, Aloisi sew Pierre Laval of France.
 Ioare and Pierre Laval of France were expected to speak at the meet- ing this afternoon of the penalties committee, explaining the course Of recent diplomatic conversations and emphasizing that any settlement now must be entirely within the frame work of the league.
 League Going Ahead
 But 1t was beyond doubt now that the league was going ahead with its penalties, determined to enforce them ct any cost against Italy until

conserve coal supplies. A number of trains will be suspended on pri- vately owned lines. More and more trains are to be suspended as the crisis continues.
 More and more stringent price control is being imposed by commit tees and profiteering Is being coEn- bated.
 A meeting of the fascist grand council, scheduled for Sunday, has been postponed until November i6 when the penalties are expected to begin. The cabinet has been con- voked for November 30.
 Anger Against Britain
 Anger against Britain is again arising, as is resentment against France for cooperating with 1t.
 Student demonstrations against foreign stores and shops selling for- eign goods is but one symptom. The boycott of foreign goods is spread ing, and editorials are becoming sharper again. It was recalled that Britain had said she would remove no warships from the Mediterran- can 50 long as such manifestations continued.
