Argentine Reservations
Canada and Argentina were
among the nations that notified
the League today that they were
applying economic sanctions
against Italy, but Argentina has
made reservations that will make
her participation less effective.
Others joining the economic
army against Italy were Vene-
zuela, Portugal, China and Siam.
The meeting of the committee

ARMY DEAL
| ia Iians Still Feel
Laval Would Never
Desert II Duce

ROME, Oct. 30 U.N.SJ.-Re-
ceiving with incredulous appre-
hension news from Paris and Lon
don Of the AngloFrench protec-
tive entente, Italian officialdom
today significantly stressed and
restressed that peace in Ethiopia
is as far away as ever, while even
the Fascist press opened a bitter
counter-offensiye against the
League of Nations economic war.
Strongly inveighing against
these sanctionists," II Tevere
made a typical thrust at Geneva,
saying: "The war declared by
these miserable beings is harder
and less chivalrous than that we
are waging against the Abyssin-
ianS."
Can't Believe 1t
The foreign office held out little
hope for success Of the peace
moves that Premier Pierre Laval
of France is expected to renew at
Geneva this weekend, and q
spokesman especially reiterated
warnings against a feeling Of over
optimism regarding resumption OF
diplomatic contacts between Lon
don and Rome.
He refused to reveal the exact
nature of the conversation yeSter-
day between Premier MuSSolini
and the British Ambassador, Sir
Eric Drummond.
Authoritative govern mental
quarters were decidedly unwilling
to believe that Britain and
France had formed a downright
aerial and naval alliance against
Italy for mutual action in the
Mediterranean.
Double Argument
The government spokesman took
the line that it was natural that
France should agree to help Bri-
tain in case of an unprovoked at
tack against British ships in the
Mediterranean. Then added:
But an unprovoked attack
against Britain is the last thing
W. are thinking Of"
Other Italian circles deemed it
impossible that the willy Laval
would agree to joint naval and
aerial action against italy unless
absolutely certain beforehand that
the occasion to exercise it would
never arise.
The restoration Of Franco-Ital,
ian friendship, they pointed out,
was Laval'S outstanding achieve
ment on the diplomatic field, and
despite the pressure of his army
general staff. it was unlikely that
at this juncture, he would go over
to Britain lock. stock and barrel
On the other hand, British
interests called attention to the
London and Paris information
that France. in return for her
Mediterranean commitment, had
been pledged British aid against
German aggression.
Regarding Britain's intention to
pull some warShips out of the
Mediterranean as a result of the
reported pledge of French naval
aid. the Italian mouth piece said: {:
That's interesting, if true-and
il 1t is true, it would be wei
coined, as would any move by
Britain to ease the tension in the
Mediterranean"
Reports that Ethiopian peace
negotiations were actually going
on met with a most emphatic
denial,

PARIS, Oct. 30.-The new
''yard-stick" plan for settlement
of the Italo Ethiopian dispute is
based on Cooperation" between
Italy and Ethiopia, International
News Service learned authorita-
lively today.
The plan, it was learned, dis
cards all mention of territorial
ceSsion.
Such a solution would be en-.
tirely new. It's broad lines were
discussed in detail here during the
past week by British and French
African experts. The negotiations
were secret.
Only Solution
High diplomatic authorities con.
slider a solution of this type the
only possible means of ending the
quarrel pacifically, deemin'. it the
only formula which would be &C"
ceptable to both Italy and Ethi-
opia.
Since Britain demands Emperor
Halle SelaSSie must be satisfied,
this was especially significant.
1t was pointed out officially that
the conversations of the experts
had been misrepreSented as a def
mite accord to be presented to
Rome and Geneva. 1t is far from
this, it was stated.
While it was considered certain
that Sir Samuel Hoare, British
foreign minister, and Premier
Pierre Laval of France would
clarity the British and French po-
sitions at Geneva, Friday, authori-
tative sources believed neither
would be able to advance definite
proposals.
1t was an open secret in diplo-
matte circles that Premier Musso-
lini was putting out "feelerS" in
the hope Of hitting upon an ac-
ceptable peace proposition because
of the fear of the effect economic
sanctions may have upon Italy.
Meanwhile, II Duce is maintain
ing the pose of "the strong man" to
enable him to turn down any Of
fers unacceptable.
Authoritative circles believed
the cooperation solution was
the result of one of these feelers,
and that the Vatican had a hand
in framing it.
It was pointed out that eco
nomic sanctions, even by as
many as SO nations, could be
nullified should even q single
power. such as Germany or the
United States, fail to cooperate.
Germany Approached
incorporation by the United
States was not feared because
of the recent Roosevelt and Hull
statements, but Britain was be-
lieved pressing Berlin to assure
cooperation in the fear of boot
Logging by the Reich.
Britain was reported offering
Germany a return of certain
colonies seized after the World
War, or financial and COM
mercial assistance, as the reward
for sanctions cooperation.
A return of colonies taken
from Germany after the World
War and financial and COM

the rewards Britain was offering

DENIES RUM0R
OF TIFF WITH
CAPT. EDEN
Tells Chelsea Audience
Great Britain Needs
Arms Expansion

LONDON, Oct. 80 U.N.S). .
Foreign Minister Sir Samuel Hoare
today publicly admitted that "sev-
eral governments have recently
been considering the possibilities
of a peaceful settlement (of the
Italo- Ethiopian war; and that the
British and French governments
have been exchanging views seek
ing a basis for future negotia-
tionS."
This Is common knowledge, "
Sir Samuel said. He was address
ing a Conservative party meeting
in Chelsea, and thus placed the
first official stamp on reports Of
the talks, said not yet to have
reached the negotiation" stage.
Discussion Held
I'm order that We should fully
understand each others views, p"
continued Sir Samuel, "the head
of the Abyssinian department Of
the foreign office has been in
Paris discussing q number of COM
plicated details with officials Of
the French foreign office"
Replying to a question from the
audience, Sir Samuel said con-
cerning the proposed British in
crease in defensive strength:
1T is essential that we should
make up our deficiencies in our
defense services. 1t will be re-
armament, but not directed against
any particular country.
1T will not be a threat to the
rest of the world, nor will it be
excessive in view of our imperial
needs.
What the world wants is an
air agreement in which the powers
would agree to defend each other
against an air attack"
Spikes ALI RumOrS
Sir Samuel denied again rumors
Of divergence between himself and
youthful Capt. Anthony Eden, his
minister for League Of Nations
affairs.
The rumors were heard again
with announcement Sir Samuel
would go to Geneva this week.
Sir Samuel said he was going to
Geneva because Eden asked him
to.
Il want to make it perfectly
clear that there is the most COM
plete agreement between us. Spite
full people have concocted the
story he Is more of a go-ahead
than I am. That is absolutely
untrue"
Sir Samuel said he was taking
the opportunity to talk to Pre-
mier Laval of France and other
prominent ministers, adding:
Yet our opponents are trying
to make ignorant people believe
there is some disreputable in
trigue behind this visit and that
1t means a sinister change in
policy.
PAY no attention to such
innuendoes. They are electioneer-
ing pure and simple. Leave to
this people the pleasure they gain
from creating mysteries where
none exist and from sowing the
seeds of suspicion where they
can.
Il particularly leave David
Lloyd George and Viscount Philip
Snowden to enjoyment of their
hymns of hate
AS for any peace proposals, the
British stick to a basis they have
insisted on for weeks. The British
contend that three parties-Ethi,
opia. Italy and The League-must
be satisfied, and that there must
be no rewards for an aggressor.

The parliament will remain in

" IT was expected that a devalu-
alton declaration would be made af-

DEMAND FOR
VEGETARIAN
COOK BOOKS

LOS ANGELES, March % U,P)-
Vegetarian cook books made their
appearance In Los Angeles today
as 10000 militant housewives de-
clared war on the high cost of
living.
Determined to lower the price of
meat by the simple method of cur
failing the demand for such food,
leaders of the housewives meat
strike today scattered throughout
the city menu lists containing
directions for making a meat
less meat loaf" lima bean roast"
4 and other vegetarian dishes to re-
K place meat on the home cooked
dinner.
The menus were prepared by
Mrs. Catherine j. Strayner of
Boston, technical expert, and were
distributed through a housewives
organization headed by Mrs. Mar
garet M. Matteson, socialite aunt
of Doris Duke, tobacco heiress."
The boycott moved swiftly and
in orderly fashion as matronly
women made personal calls on
their neighbors and obtained
pledges that meat would not be a
daily item on the family menu
until prices are dropped.
A cleft wing" organization head
ed by Mrs. Minnie N. Rubin took
an even more determined stand to
enforce the boycott.
Butcher shops will be asked to
close until prices come down, she
said, and those which refuse to
lock their doors will be picketed.
Meanwhile livestock men and
meat packers took official cogni-
zance of the boycott in statements
issued which termed the action "a
war on uncomfortable conditions
which, If carried out, will tend to
make them worse"
