when he sees injustice He continues
| to talk about his pet obseSSion-inter-
! national agreementS-at time when
nations throughout the world are
ready to slit one another's throats.
Whether he will repeat the sock" of
so years ago-diplomatically this time
| remains to be seen.
The Secretary of State has learned
the art of mastering his feelings to
such a degree that his most intimate
collaborators can't say what he is 60
ing to do.
In times like these, when the for
eign relations of the United States
must be kept on an even keel, they
could not have been placed in safer
hands than those of Cordell Hull.
He may not be as brilliant as Charles
E. Hughes, or as far-seeing as Henry
L. Stimson. He may even make minor
mistakes, but it is certain that he is
safer than his predecessors, because he
will never allow himself to be swayed
by m0tionS-regardleSS of how strong
ly he may feel the injustices done
by nations to each other.
There is no question that foreign
powers are using all the Subterfuges
at the disposal of modern diplomacy
to draw the United States into the
present European mess. There is
equally no doubt that there are many
in the encourage Of the Secretary Of
State who, despite the unmistakable
sentiment in this country against any
entanglements. would like to lend
helping hand to one or the other Of
the political groups which have been
formed in Europe recently. There Is
no doubt that there is what may be
called strong pro-BritiSh sentiment
in the State Department. All these
forces are working with no chance
whatsoever of succeeding. Whatever
Mr.. Hull's personal feelings and sem
timents may be, he will never allow
them to influence his judgment. He
has adopted the old Oriental slogan,
Haste comes from the devil"

The League of Nations will de-
clare forthwith Italy as the aggres-
sor, although Italy-like Japan in
1931-claims to be fighting brigands.
The sanctions to be taken against
II Duce's country will be mild. All
financial and commercial intercourse
between the members of the League
and Italy will be prohibited. This
is of no great consequence. First of
all there are not many countries in
the world which are willing to lend
Italy any money-not until Ethiopia
has been conquered and opened to
foreign capitals.
Nobody worries about the prohibi-
tion of all commercial intercourse
with Italy. Switzerland, Austria, Hun
gary, Rumania and Yugoslavia, who
are Italy's principal customers, will
accept the application of economic
sanctions, but will not apply them.
Their representatives already have
pointed out at Geneva that the cessa-
tion of trade with Italy means eco
nomic and financial ruin to them.
Switzerland has officially protested
against her being compelled to throw

Bust of Samuel de Champlain Is
Unveiled at Old Fort Mia
CARA, N. Y.
BY the Associated Press.


OLD FORT NIAGARA, N. Y, Oc-
tober 5.-France and America joined
hands today to unveil a bust of Samuel
de Champlain, one of Frances great
explorers, in the magazine of this old
fort, the powder keg of New France"
before the British swept that empire
away.
The big bronze bust, gift of France
to the United States, has been placed
in the grim stone chamber where
the Indian allies of France, and later
of the British, used to get the powder
for their raids on the Colonial frontier.
France used it, too, as storehouse
of powder for her string of forts which
stretched between here and Fort Du-
quesne, where Pittsburgh now stands.
Count Charles de Fontnouvelle,
French consul general at New York,
presented the bust this afternoon.
The fort celebrated French day"
today. There was a similar celebration
last year when the restored fort was
dedicated.

CLASH OVER SANCTIONS
Police Check Street Demonstra-

"Long Live Italy"

By the Associated Press.
PARIS, october 5.-Several hundred
Nationalist engaged in harmless
clashes with police on boulevards to-
night in a demonstration against
sanctions upon Italy.
A Saturday night crowd of thousands
of theatergoers was treated to the
sight of Opera Square boulevards oc-
cupied by squads of mobile guards with
carbines
The demonstrators broke up into
small groups and shouted Neutrality!
Long Live Italy!" until police seized

others have done so privately. They
are anxious to maintain the prestige
of the League of Nations. but cannot
afford to subscribe to an economic
suicide
Since neither France nor Great
Britain can promise these states to
purchase the commodities which are
sold ordinarily to Italy, they will con-
tinue to trade unofficia|ly.
Foodstuffs and raw materials can
be transported from these countries
into Italy overland without much
trouble, under the benevolent eye OF
the respective authorities. Coal can
be purchased from Germany, which is
no longer a member of the League and
consequently does not feel bound by
the decisions of the body. American
cotton can reach Italy provided Musso-
lini can charter Japanese or German
cargo boats to take it from the Ameri-
can ports. Thus, the economic sane
tions will not coerce Italy into SUBJ
mission.
The main concern of the European
statesmen, since II Duce's troops have
started their onslaught against the
EthiopianS, is to localize the conflict
to prevent war from spreading to
Europe.
Although angry at Mussolini, Brit
ish and French statesmen have been
gladdened by Italy's victories so far
While still Illuminating against Italy
they are thinking that the time i:
near to suggest some kind of media
tion to stop the conflict.

Since 1t would be unethical for
France and Great Britain to assume
this responsibility. it is likely that
the League will take the situation in
hand with accustomed efficiency and
speed, and order the warning armies
to stop fighting and remain on their
present positions. Then some solution
will have to be devised to legahze the
big theft of II Duce.

Diplomatic quarters in Washington
believe that some sort of compromise
might be reached whereby Italy is
given full control over the provinces
at present under the scepter of Halle
Selassie. with the exception of the
mountainous country of Amhar, which
would remain nominally under the
sovereignty of the King of Kings. The
bone Of contention between Great
Britain and Italy-the Tsana Lake
region-would come into the British
sphere of influence. The Ethiopian
army would be disbanded and replaced
by an organized police force, under
the command and absolute control of
the Italians.
This plan, suggested some eight
weeks ago by Premier Laval, will be
satisfactory to Mussolini. What Selas-
sic and his Rases will say is a different
question.

There is no doubt that Mussolini,
having avenged the Adowa defeat, will
be delighted to accept a compromise.
He does not want to fight unnecesSar-
lily. But the Ethiopians do not feel in
the least that they have been defeated.
They have fully expected to lose the
territory at the foot of the mountains
which has fallen into Mussolini's
hands. But they say that the war has

Armies Converge on Capital.
BY the Associated Press.
The war machine by which Benito
MuSSolini seeks to overcome Ethiopia,
oldest continuing empire of the world,
was roaring at the gates Of Aduwa to-
day, but the knives and spears of
Emperor Halle Selassie's black war
riors flashed in stubborn resistance.
Adigrat, east of Aduwa, was the
scene OF the most violent fighting
Saturday. There, said reports from
the front, was hand-to-hand fighting
the kind the knife-wielding tribes
men of Ethiopia best like. The re-
suits were still uncertain.
There was fighting. too, in Danakil,
farther east along the Eritrean border,
and at Mussa Ali, where the Italians
apparently had not made much head
way.
Ethiopia Calls for Armed Sanctions.
At Geneva, Ethiopia asked the
League of Nations to order immediate
military, naval and air sanctions
against Italy.
A report to the League Council ab-
solving Ethiopia of blame for the pres
ent conflict.
A call was issued for an urgent"
session of the League Assembly next
Wednesday. and a committee of six
was named to make a new inquiry
into the lo-Ethiopian situation. in
view Of the changed status.
Mussolinis request that England
agree to withdraw her feet from the
Mediterranean If Italy would do the
same was turned down by the British
government.
The military situation, as disclosed
by dispatches from the various fronts,
from Rome and from Adds Ababa, is
as follows:
State of Fighting in Aduwa Sector.
Forces numerically equal face each
other on this, the northern front.
Italy's advantage lies in her superior
war weapons and supplies. Ethiopians
are favored by thorough acquaint-
ance with the terrain, little of which
adapts itself to any pitched battles
such as the fields of Flanders afforded
in the World War.
Gen. Emilio de Bono has 100000
men, supported by planes. tanks and
artillery. From his base as Asmara, in
Fritrea, he has moved since Thursday
across the border in a semi-encircling
movement aimed at Aduwa, the little
city which has been an ache in the
Italian heart ever since an Italian
force was wiped out there 40 years
ago.
