Hoare Stays in London
As Crisis Draws Near

LONDON, Sept. 16 Q.N.SO.
Instead of returning to Geneva,
British Foreign Secretary Sir
Samuel Hoare planned today to
keep in touch here with LENDERS
of the British cabinet for the
crisis in the Italo-Ethiopia dis
pute expected this week.
Thus, Anthony Eden. British
Minister for League of Nations
affairs, will be Britain's spokes-
man in Geneva's eleventh-hour
efforts to prevent hostilitieS or to
''locl lie" the conflict.
The cabinet is expected to
meet soon to consider develC ,.
ments and to reply to the French
ambassador request for a st" te-
ment of Britain's attitude toward
"other unprovoked aggreSSionS, "
meaning possible Austro- German
eventualitieS.
The rep, probably will that
the British government will stick
to the League Covenant under
all conditions, and will call at
tention to Sir Samuel's recent
speech at Geneva calling for col
lective resistance against all un-
provoked acts of aggression.
Whitehall circles refused to
comment on reports that France
had pledged naval aid to Britain
should Italy attack the British
fleet.

Anxiety Treat
The fate of $500 foreigners
here is the chief source of worry
to the government, and an in
ventory of the rolling stock of
the Adds Ababa-Djibouti railway
shows there is some chance of
evacuating them if the Italians
do not Immediately destroy the
road,
There are 20 locomotives and
around 1000 cars. Anxiety, how
ever, is great, lest the first air
attack cause such casualties and
panic that organized evacuation
is impossible. international News
Service was told:
every precaution has been
taken to prepare the population
for air raids, and an adequate
warning will be given"
But a glance at the map shows
that italians flying from Assab
would pass for a third of the way
over virtually an uninhabited des-
sert. After that they would be
flying high over mountains, a
plane would be most difficult to
observe, and telephone communi-
cations at best would be primitive.
Surprise BOmbings Likely
So the chances are that Adds
Ababa would first realize a raid
by the first bomb.
The fact is, this Is the most de-
fenseless city in the world against
air raiders. Seven airplanes, un.
fitted for pursuit flying and a few
small caliber anti-aircraft guns
could hardly be expected to annoy
modern bombers.
Mass flights of the population
to surrounding woods will be it's
only protection except at the Ger
man Embassy, the Hotel Europe,
and the radio station, where dug
outs are being completed.

Adds ABABA. Sept. 16
G.N.SO For the first time since
he became Negus, Emperor Halle
Selassie today ordered his per-
sonal war equipment to be
cleaned and prepared after a
picturesque council of war last
night when Menelik's chieftains
assembled around the Lion Of
Judah.
All were veterans of Adowa,
and each had a personal expe-
rience to tell concerning the de.
feat of the Italians. But the
Emperor wanted specifically to
know the route Menelik's armies
followed to Adowa, as he is said
to desire to duplicate it in the
hope his army's return would be
under the same circumstances
as the victory in 1896.
The Emperor's personal body
guard will accompany him, consist
ing of a regiment trained by a
Belgian mission which was rein
forced today by nine officers,
specialists in artillery and ma
chine guns.
Red Cross Moves Up
During the Emperor's absence,
Gov. Ras Emirou of Gotham will
exercise imperial authority in the
capital. Ras Emirou, a nephew Of
the present empress, has been
called to fly from his capital,
Zebra Markos, to reach Adds
Ababa before the Emperor'S de-
parture.
The Red Gross is sending its
first outfit to the front today and
tomorrow. Three hundred women
from notable families volunteered
to be nurses, but the fact is the
Ethiopian army's medical service
is exceedingly inadequate.
The Emperor is expected to
leave within a fortnight. Although
troubled with such cares as no
other sovereign in the world to-
day, he finds time for social du-
ties and has scheduled a banquet
for foreign correspondents Thurs

HULL WORRIED

THREAT
Moscow Is PIannind

Its Propaganda
International News Service

Moscow's threat to defy Score.
tary of State Cordell Hull's warn.
ing against any further violation
of non-propaganda pledges today
confronted troubled State De.
partment officials with the neces-
Sity Of considering once again the
possibility of severing all official
relations with the Soviet Union.
Officials looked aSkance at Mos
cow reports that the Communist
Third International planned to
distribute throughout the United
States copies of reports on the
meeting of its recent Congress.
Caused HulI's Warning
1t was the activities of this
Congress, urging the spread of
Communism in the United States,
which led the State Department
to lodge a strong protest with the
Soviet government and led Secre-
tary Hull to warn of grave conse.
quenceS" if the Soviets continued
to violate their non-propaganda
pledges.
That Moscow should quickly
turn around and permit its off.
cial organ, Pravda, to announce
that the Third International
planned to distribute it's propa-
ganda pamphlets in this country
was viewed with grave misgivings
in authoritative quarters here.
Officials were dismayed at the
prospect of having to face the
Soviet propaganda issue again.
They did not relish being placed
in the position of having to sever
diplomatic relations with Moscow
at the present time for two
reasons.
Slow to Admit Mistake
First, because, for domestic
political reasons, Secretary Hull is
reluctant to place the Administra.
ton in the position of admitting a
mistake in recognition Of the
Soviet regime by breaking off re.
lations virtually on the eve Of ma.
tional election campaigns.
Secondly, because the State De.
partment is genuinely apprehen.
sive over the European war scare
and does not wish to divert its at
tention from developments there.
However, it was conceded that
should Soviet officials in this coun-
try attempt to distribute the pro
ceedings of the third international
congress, the State Department
would be left with no other course
than to consider seriously the
severance of diplomatic relations.

Litvinoff also assured Poland
that one of the Soviet unions prin-
ciple aims was to keep up friendly
relations with Warsaw.
Following LIE Valera'S plea,
which stirred the assembly, Beck
startled the delegations with the
curtness and grevfty of his reply
to Litvinoff's remarks last week,
in which the Soviet spokesman
termed the German-Polish pact a
threat to peace.
Beck protested against Litvin-
offs criticism and stated:
"Such an unusual procedure
in the midst Of this high
assembly can only harm loyal
international collaboration"
It was during Litvinoff's reply
to this statement that the Polish
delegation walked out.
Following today's speeches, the
assembly concentrated on COM

tngs were forSeen for several days.

Ethiopia but not mentioning

ment said:
"Must we wait until the

revolt before we grant him re-
dress to which we know he is

"Why, If the problems are

Germany never lost military
honor, he said, least of all in the

Hitler held up the old army as

German coup in Memel.
Representations by Britain,
Italy and France to Lithuania, de-
