POWERS REVERT
To 1905 PACT
AS WAY OUT
Ethiopia Greets U. S. Interest
in Situation As Good Sign;
Sec. Hull Watches Closely

LONDON, July IL G.N.S0.
That italy will be granted exten.
sive colonizing, economic and
political rights over part, if not
all, of Ethiopia became a practical
certainty today as Britain and
France turned to the Ethiopia
partition treaty" of 1906 for a
solution of the quarrel without
war.
Joseph Avenol, secretary-general
Of the League of Nations, is back
Of the plan to call an Anglo
Franco-Italian conference under
the 1905 treaty, chiefly to prevent
disaster to the League if Geneva
had to handle the problem.
Both France and Britain are
now said to favor bidding Italy
to such a meeting, but no formal
proposals have yet been made.
Four Plans in Air
Four schemes for concessions to
Italy have come to light from au-
thoritative sources:
1. Secretary Avenol has pro-
posed that Italy be given a "col-
Onizing mandate" over part Of
Ethiopia.
2. Italian political authority
over Ethiopia such as Britain
has over Iraq.
3. An Italian advisor for
Ethiopia.
4. Plan to give Italy two
spheres of control, one near
her colonies and the other
covering the rest Of Ethiopia,
following proposal of AmbaS-
sadOr Dino Grandi of Italy.
Britain may attempt to maneu-
yer France, which has shown no
disposition to interfere with Italy,
into calling the tri-power confer
ence.
Britain is seeking "to discover
whether the French government
has any constructive suggestions
for settlement of the dispute"
Capt. Anthony Eden told the
House of Commons.
eve feel we have made our
contribution. It is their turn
to make theirs"
NO PLEA TO FRANCE
Britain has avoided formally
asking France if she would par
ticipate in economic sanctions
against italy, and British Foreign
Minister Sir Samuel Hoare, clearly
indicated no such step would be
taken. The House Of Commons
cololy received David Lloyd
Georges plea for sanctions yester-
day.
Italy has so far reacted coldly
to the three-poWer conference idea,
but Ambassador Grandi's activi-
ties here indicate italy may yet
accept peaceful way out.
Another objection to such pa--
ley is the fact that Ethiopia has
never recognized the 1905 treaty,
and would not likely recognize a
new one giving any country a say
in her affairs.
Emperor Halle Selassie, there
fore, will probably continue to
press for a special session of the
league council, to appoint an ar
bitration commission.
Welcome u. S. Interest
British and Ethiopia circles
welcomed the interest being taken
in Washington, as shown by Sec
rotary Hull's conferences with the
British, French, and italian am
baSSadorS.
This was taken here as an in
formal blessing on the three-poWer
conference, although there was no
indication that the United States
would go so far as actively to par

Sec. Hull Calls British,
French ENJOYS to Farley
International News Service

Fear that war between Italy
and Ethiopia might spread be-
yond the sun-scorched borders of
the black African kingdom today
led this Government to show a
more active interest in the situa-
ton.
Taking an initiative move for
the first time since the Italo-
Ethiopian dispute reached the
crisis stage, Secretary of State
Cordell Hull called the British
and French Ambassadors into con-
ference.
The official explanation was
that Secretary Hull wished to OBJ
tain information concerning Lon
don reports that a movement was
under way for joint conference
between Great Britain, France
and Italy in laSt-minute effort
on the part of the former to pre-.
vent the outbreak of war.
The two ENJOYS informed Sec
rotary Hull they were without any
definite information from their
respective governments concern
ing the reported intention to hold
such a conference.
Officials were reticent concern
ing the reason why Secretary Hull
was so quick to check up on the
reported conference. It was said
that he merely was seeking infor-
nation in line with his previous
statement that this Government
was closely following conditions
and developments in the dispute.

Babe Breathes AS
Life Victory Won
Doctor, Police and Nurse
Contribute to Efforts

NEW YORK, Jan. 21.-CUP).
An apparently dead baby was
brought to life last night with the
combined efforts of the father, a
physician, a nurse, the police
emergency squad and a passing
foot patrolman.
The baby, seven-pound hoy,
was born to Mrs. Mary Puppilio,
30-her fifth stillborn child, or so
it seemed. But DR.. Bernard Fog
lin thought it might be alive and
shot adrenalin directly into the
heart.
He then gave it a dose of altha-
lobeln, powerful drug, while An
gelo Puppilio, the father, ran for
police.
Patrolman Cesar Cozatti and q
nurse, Henrietta Lunen, breathed
into the baby's mouth. The police
emergency squad arrived with
oxygen tanks and they too
breathed.
After five hours the baby
breathed. Two patrolmen were
left to start breathing into its
mouth, in case it stopped breath
ing.

The league maintained that
while the American people are
willing to confer emergency pow

to have them written into perma-

termine which features should be

These three reasons, it held,
make it inadvisable to enact per-

viii Decide Soon When Hapsburg
Restoration 0pportune In Austria
Starhemberg Asks Royal
lists Not to Endanger
Cause by Haste
By FERDINAND JAIN
United Press Staff Correspondent

VIENNA, Jan. 21.-(UP).-
Vice-Chancellor Prince Ernest
Ruhiger Won Starhemberg an
noanced last night that his power
flu Heimwehr (home guards)
would decide shortly when young
Atchduke Otto of Hapsburg is to
ascend the throne of Austria.
The vice-chancellor, addressing
Heimwehr leaders, clarified his
attitude on the vital issue Of the
monarchist restoration. Return
OF the monarchy has been threat
ened often under the democracy
By internal strife led first by So
cialists and now by Nazis.
The prince warned legitlmlsts
clamoring for the immediate re-
turn of Otto and his mother, the
former Princess Zita, exiled IN
Belgium, that they must not en-
danger their cause by haste.
He said that while many favor
ed restoration of the monarchy
as the best form of government
for Austria. there still was need
for caution.
Monarchists hailed the princes
announcement as one OF their
most significant recent gains.
Won Starhemberg's attitude on
restoration heretofore had been
doubtful.
His statement now brings the
government leadership into the
open for Otto. Chancellor Kurt
Schusnigg, an ardent monarchlst,
has been working in sympathy
with restorationists, ever since
he rose to power following the
assassination of Chancellor En-
colbert Dollfuss last July.
The main obstacle remains the
opposition Of the little entente,
Czechoslovakia, Jugoslavia and
Roumania to revival of Haps-
burg rule in Austria. They fear
this will mean eventually a de-
mand for return of TERRITORY
seized from Austro-Hungary wneil
the dual monarchy was broken up
at the end of the World war, ano
the nations of CzechosloVakla
Juposlavia and greater Rumania
created or enhanced by the grau-
ments. /.
Pressure is being brought to
hear on these nations to enter a
accommodating" pact with Italy
and France, which Austria, Ger
many and other powers will be
asked to sign. This would check
their efforts to dictate to Aus
tria or any other signatory to the
proieced treaty.
Former Empress Zita mean
while has brought her intrigue in
Paris and Rome to point where
She is understood to have aligned
powerful personages behind her
scheme to place her young son on
the throne of the Hapsburgs.
Her plans. emerging from
years of underground maneuver-
! ing from Zita's "court" in Bel
GUM, are believed nearing frui-
ton. Always popular, Zita's re-
turn as empress Dowager doubt
less would be hailed by a major
ity of the populace.

fought five years until his death

The measure would grant citi-

United States. Two cases were
taken to the U. S. supreme court

ROVE. JOHNSON IS CHOSEN
AS ASSISTANT POSTMASTER
SUCCEEDING T. l. OSBORNE
Has Been Associated With
Local Postal Service
Since May, 1920

Roy E. Johnson, money order
and postal savings clerk at the
Hendersonville post office for the
last seven years, has been APP
pointed to the rank of assistant
postmaster, succeeding T. L. Os-
borne, who received temporary
appointment to the post soon aft
err the death of ]. A. Mason last
June. Mr.. Johnson's commission is
signed by w. w. Howes, first as
sistant postmaster general.
Mr.. Johnson's appointment is IN
line with the post office depart
ment's policy of promoting from
the ranks under civil service reg
ulations. Mr.. Osborne's temporary
appointment was not made under
these regulations, although he is
an active candidate for the office
of postmaster on the basis of his
rating in a civil service examina-
ton conducted last year.
q. C. Byers, acting postmaster,
is not a candidate for postmaster
under civil service, and the action
taken by the department in max
ing permanent appointment of an
assistant postmaster is regarded in
political circles here as the fore
runner of the naming of perma-
nent postmaster. Most observers
believe that Congressman Zebulon
Weaver will soon make recommen-
dation for this office, and that the
appointment will be announced
within the next 60 days. There
are several candidates for the Of
flee.
Mr.. Johnson, the new assistant
postmaster, has been in the local
postal service since May II, 1920.
He began work as temporary rural
carrier on route No. 2, and has
since served as regular carrier on
the same route, stamp clerk, dis
patching and distributing clerk,
and in other capacities. He IS the
fourth oldest employe of the local
office in point of service, one of
the other three, Claude Pace, be-
ing within a year of retirement.
Mr.. Byers, who was named act
ing postmaster on May II, last,
succeeding R. H. Station, who held
office about three months after
his regular term had expired, said
this morning that he had received
no indication of the probable time
when a permanent appointment OF
a postmaster will be made.
