HARLEM PLANS
GREAT FUNERAL
FOR DE LAWD'

NEW YORK, March IS Q.N.SO.
The final "gangway for de LaWd

Richard B. Harrison, negro star
Of '"The Green Pastures" was be-
ing planned today as the biggest
in Harlem's history.
Harrison died yesterday after
bringing his play back from ap-
pearance in 203 American cities
and towns before more than a
million persons. His name was
still in the lights before the the
ater today and the management
said that there would be no inter.
ruption, "the show will go on"

The time Of Harrison'S funeral
rests with his son, Paul Lawrence
Dunbar, Chicago Orchestra leader,
who was to arrive here today.

son delivered the eulogy. He ended
by saying, "Good-by, Gabriel"
At Harrison's funeral the eulogy
will close with, "Good-by, Lawd."
Fame At The End
The old Negro who spent a
lifetime as an obscure Shake
Spearean actor to find worldwide
acclaim at the end of the road,
will be taken to his home in Chi
cago for burial. His son, Paul
Dunbar Harrison, Chicago band
leader, will arrive in New York
tomorrow to take the body OF
"De LaWd" back home.
The story of "De Lawd" began
when an old Negro actor who
had worked through long life
time to support his ailing wife
and two children sought the
counsel of an Episcopalian bishop
as to whether it would be sacri-
legious to accept the offer of the
role of the Diety in a play about
q Negro heaven.
Bishop Herbert Shipman told
Harrison the play might have a
strong religious influence. And
so de Lawd" walked on a Broad
way stage.
His fame was assured from the
time, when he first walked among
the angels at the heavenly fish
fry, in response to the most fa-
nous entrance line in theatrical
history:

ETHIOPIA DELIVERS NOTES.

Peace Proposal DeplOred But Not
Actually Rejected.
Adds ABABA. December 19 CP).-
The Ethiopian government today gave
identical notes to the Ministers of
Great Britain and France, deploring
the Anglo-French proposals for Italo-
Ethiopian peace, but not actually re-
jecting them.
The text of the identic notes was
couched in the strongest terms.

and detailed account of his position

and detailed account of his position.
Authoritative sources said there
was no doubt that Sir Samuel's secret
working with Premier Laval, which
resulted in the peace proposals,
proved highly unpopular with certain
members of the British cabinet.
Although this disagreement was kept
as quiet as possible, informed sources
said it undoubtedly was communicated
to Sir Samuel yesterday by Neville
Chamberlain, one Of his oldest friends,
who called on Hoare at the prime
minister's request.
Official sources learned that if Sir
Samuel persisted in his determination
not to apologize for his course, sew
eral of the younger members of the
cabinet intended to resign.
Eden in List Mentioned.
Among those mentioned were An
thony Eden, minister for League of
Nations affairs; Alfred Duff Cooper,
secretary of war: w. G. Ormsby- Gore,
first commissioner of works; Oliver
Stanley, president of the board of edu-
cation, and Walter Elliot, minister of
agriculture.
The House Of Commons openly ex-
pected the new foreign secretary would
be prominent figure.
Chamberlain, chancellor of the eX-
chequer, would prove popular choice,
informed sources said. and certainly
would calm the situation. He was
reported to have led the cabinet oppo-
sition to the peace proposals.
Other possibilities arose that Prime
Minister Baldwin himself might take
over the vital duties of the foreign
secretary, that Sir John Simon. home
secretary, who yielded the foreign post
to Hoare last June, might return to
the task. or that Eden, Hoare's for
eign Office twin, might become foreign
secretary.
Sir Samuels resignation came sud-
denly last night, 10 days after he and
Laval secretly had formulated the peace
proposals, suggesting Italy, declared
aggressor, be offered concessions in
some two-thirds of Ethiopia as a basis
for settlement.

Americas neutrality and avoid fur
ther wars, the actual ordering of the
embargo should be left to the discre-
ton of the President.
In the Senate, there are three diff
ferent trends of thought regarding the
future neutrality law.
Some Senators believe that a law
-, providing that nations making pur-
chases in the United States must pay
cash for whatever they buy and take
it away in their own ships will be
ample to safeguard Americas neu-
trahty.
Other Senators are of the opinion
that placing an embargo on all trade
with the belligerent nations-that is
to say, complete cessation of all
economic and financial relations
would be sufficient deterrent for any
further wars and save America all
possible entanglements.
Other Senators like Bone, Clarke
and Nye are Of the opinion that an
embargo on the export of raw ma
terials will serve the purpose.
Most Senators believe, however,
that the mandatory power should re-
main in the hands of the Senate and
that the executive branch of the ad-
ministration should have only the
power of enforcing whatever law is
passed by the Congress.

LAVAL REPORTED
LIKELY TO RESIGN
Herriot, Abandoning Lead
of Party, Also Due to
Quit Government.

BACKGROUND
Since the decline and death OF
ArtStide BRAND, Edouard Herriot,
rhetoric teacher turned statesman,
has been Frances leading inter
nationalist and seeker after per-
petudI peace. A strong supporter OF
the League, the thrice former
premier has large tollototng, and
Luual coalition government needs
support OF his Radical Socialist
party to prevent tottering. Herr1ot
has been enrGged at Hoare-LGual
peace proposal, which many think
"betrdyS" the principles OF the
League.
(CopyrIght, 1885, by the Associated Press)
PARIS, December ia likelihood
that Premier Pierre Laval would offer
his resignation. following the example
of British Foreign Secretary Sir Sam
uel Hoare, was reported today in the
Chamber of Deputies lobbies.
President Albert Lebrun, however,
was expected generally to urge Laval
to remain as chief of the government
with the probability that he would
face q Chamber debate December 81
as co-author with Hoarse of the criti-
cized Franco British plan for Italo-
Ethiopian peace.
Laval was expected to consult Pres
tdent Lebrun Immediately upon his
return from Geneva, where the peace
proposals have been virtually aban-
doned before the League of Nations.
HerriOt Resignation Looms.
While former Premier Edouard Her.
riot, who resigned last night as leader
of the dominant Radical Socialist
party, remained in the cabinet fol-
the time being, the possibility of his
eventual resignation as minister ol
state also was discussed in the lobbleS
Andre Cornu, a member of his party
said:
1T is no secret that Herriot would
prefer f1rmer foreign policy"
A stormy future for Laval in the
Chamber of Deputies was predicted by
political sources. which said the ties
binding the Radical-Socialists and the
government were weakened by Her
riots resignation from the presidency
of the party.
Herriot saved the cabinet from an
Immediate crisis by abandoning his
leadership of the Radcial-Sociahst
party and remaining loyal to Laval
over the Franco-British proposals for
East African peace.
Gesture Effect Uncertain.
The ultimate effect of former Pre-
mier Herriot's gesture on the Cham
Der of Deputies debate set for Decem-
Der 27 on the controversial Italo- Ethio'
plan peace plan became uncertain.
The premier could Sidestep the ISSUE
by reading a decree of closure Of
Parliament Monday, after the Senate
has voted on bill for action against
domestic political leagues.

ROME. December 19.-Premier Mus
solini delayed today his answer to
the nco-BritiSh proposals for peace
in Ethiopia, considered by Fascists
to be already beaten in London, Slip
ping in Paris and Geneva and re-
jected in Adds Ababa.
II Duce discussed the peace terms
for three hours in a session of his
Fascist Grand Council, extending into
the early hours of this morning, but
made public no decision, calling in
stead another meeting for Saturday
night.
The delay enabled Mussolini to
study the quick succession of develop
ments following the advance of the
proposals and his pledge at Pontinia
yesterday to fight" for Italy's rights.
These sources said the premier may
announce, after Saturdays meeting
of his Supreme Council of State,
whether Italy will discuss the terms
as a possible basis for East African
settlement or reject them and try to
solve the problem in its own way.

pearance of the head of the govern
ment.
The resigned foreign secretary, who
spoke as a private member of the
House, told his colleagues that the war
raised very difficult questions between
Great Britain and France.
1T must be obvious to every men,
ber," he said, that the great body of
public opinion in France is intensely
nervous concerning a breach with
Italy and nervous concerning anything
likely to weaken the French defense.
In view of these facts, I did every
thing in my power to make a settle
ment possible.
The proposals which emerged from
the discussions in Paris were not
French or British in the sense that
we like them. Neither Laval nor
liked many features of them"
Situation More Acute.
Sir Samuel warned:
THE situation has become more
acute. I believe we now are entering
a much more dangerous phase"
He told his colleagues that the
British alone were taking military
precautions on behalf of the League
of Nations, and that no other member
had taken such steps.
Delay in effecting peace in East
Africa, he declared, might mean an
irresistible drift to European war"
Applause Greets Finish.
Sir Samuel spoke As minutes. The
conclusion of his address was greeted
with a thunderous burst of applause,
in contrast to the silence in which he
had begun speaking.
Hoare Immediately left the cham
Der.
While he had been speaking furi-
Gus debate over the foreign policy had
been raging in the House of Lords.

privy seal, summarized much of the
debate by declaring to his brother
peers:

wrongly, are dead"
Baldwin Faces Stiff Fight.
Baldwin looked pale and worried,
facing the stiffest parliamentary de-
bate of his premiership.
Owing to fog, no daylight entered
the high windows of the austere,
packed chamber.
Rev. G. S. Woods, Laborite, asked
Baldwin if his statement during the
general election-that the League of
Nations would remain the keystone of
the British foreign policy-still repre-
sented the governments policy.
Baldwin replied: "Yes, sir"
The parliamentary storm broke a
short time earlier in the House of
Lords where Lord Davies led of the
attack by declaring that public opinion
in Europe, across the Atlantic and
throughout the Dominions was out
rageously shocked by these unfair pro-
posals" of the Franco-British peace
plan.

would have left an indelible stain on
the honor and reputation of Great
Britain"
Davies Sees Huge BIunder.
In his questioning of the govern
ment Lord Davies declared:
"On the other side of the Atlantic,
the government has stemmed the ris-
ing tide of cooperation with the
League of Nations and made itself look
ridiculous in the eyes of the American
people.
There has been a huge blunder.
Why is it necessary to emulate the
acrobatic performances of Premier
Laval?"
