to be exported to Italy was not decided,
pending further consideration.
The League came today to a crisis
Observers believe that the next "a
hours might tell whether the sane
tionS campaign to crush Italian war
fare against Ethiopia would proceed
directly against Italy, or whether it
would fall into futility.
The obstacles facing two of the
chief economic sanctions proposed-a
ban on exports of key products to
Italy and boycott on all goods CON-
ing from Italy-were discussed dill
gently.
A prohibition on shipments, its ad-
vocates believed. sooner or later would
hamper seriously Italy's operations in
East Africa.
The buy nothing from Italy" boy
colt, urged by Eden, if vigorously ap-
piled, would deal a crushing blow to
Italy's exports, 10 per cent Of which
60 to nations in the League.
vigorous ACtlOn NeeucO.
officials feared, however, that diff
culties were enough to frustrate its
application unless both Britain and
France backed the scheme vigorously.
Uncertainty over the ultimate atti-
tude Of France, therefore, made some
smaller League states doubly anxious
over the repercussions of a boycott
to their own national economies
should they throw themselves into a
sanctions campaign which failed to
meet quick success.
British sources expressed hope that
both the key products embargo and
the buy nothing from Italy" boycott
would be voted definitely by tomorrow
night.
Should vigorous and united action
by the major powers put the sanctions
through, League leaders foresaw a
"quick and effective" application Of
pressure on italy.
If dissension appeared among the
key powers, however, these leaders
feared eventual formal approval of
the economic sanctions would be only
the beginning of long struggle to
obtain their actual enforcement.
Aid Promised for States.
The Drafting Committee, which was
instructed to submit definite proposals
for mutual aid for states which suffer
unduly from the cessation of pur-
chases by Italy, completed its work
Among its recommendations, OFF,
cials say, is one by which countries
would increase their quotas on i'm
portations from nations which would
be affected by an italian boycott.
Another suggestion would arrange
for special banking mechanism to
provide credits for affected nations
if that eventually were found neces-
sary. A third suggests a scheme by
which distressed countries could place
their exports elsewhere than Italy.
The jurists decided the countries
which do not join the economic boy
colt against Italy could not claim
favored-nation rights If preferential
treatment were accorded by some
states to others which were hard hit
by the boycott.
This means, for example, If a coun-
try has a treaty with Germany or
Austria containing the favored-nation
clause, and that country receives
lower tariffs from some League states.
Germany or Austria could not claim
the same treatment.

session and with the blessing of his
party's leaders, heckled and took his
Democratic colleagues to task on the
ground they were becoming "just a
bit too demagogic." He also intro
duced a resolution inviting the Presi-
dent to address joint session of the
House and Senate Ito explain why
the solemn covenants and pledges
made with the people in the Demo-
cratic national platform of 1882 and
by himself as the Democratic nominee
for President of the United States
have been broken"
Questions Mailing List.
Eaton said he would "like to know
where the mailing list" for the presi-
Dental letter was obtained.
II feel certain" he said, that a
request to me for advice and COM
ment would be the last thing in the
mind of any member of the admin
tstration.
yet, however inadvertent the re-
reply I can give the President is to
send him copy of my resolution,
now smothered by the Democratic
majority of the House Rules Com
mittee, and suggest the best thing
he could do would be to seize the
first opportunity to have the COM
mittee discharge that resolution and
accept the invitation to explain. 1t
would be most helpful and health
full"
The resolution, copy Of which is
being sent to the President by Eaton,
recalls that the 1882 platform pledged
maintenance of the national credit
by a Federal budget annually bal
anced on the basis of accurate ex-
ecutive estimates within the revenues
raised by system of taxation levied
on the principle of ability to pay"
Extravaganza Condemned.
1t also recalled that the platform
condemned the administration then in
power for its refusal to curtail "the
extravagant expenditures of the Gov
ernment" and advocated "an imme-
diate and drastic reduction of govern
mental expenditures to ac-
complish q saving of not less than Is
per centum in the cost of the Federal
Government"
Eaton asserted in the resolution that
the President, while candidate, said
The platform is promise binding on
the party and its candidates. I have
accepted the platform without equivo-
Cation and without reserve. Let us
have the courage to stop borrowing to
meet continuing deficits"
Contending the President had not
kept his promises, Eaton submitted
that the expenditures of the Govern
ment from 1889 to 1918 were $24,521,-
S45,000, as against expenditures of
$24,206, ,533. 900 for 1934-35, as esti-
mated by President Roosevelt himself.
Since my advice has been sought"
Eaton said, II urge that the President
accept the invitation to explain and
to do so without 'equivocation.' And,
having explained, to go back and start
over by rededicating himself to and
actually following the precepts which
he so heartily Endorsed when he took
over the reins of Office"

sped back and back, bearing slightly
to the right. For minute Sanfords
team as well as the rooters thought he
had gone mad and was rushing blindly
toward the wrong goal line. But he
kept on going. Some Is yards from
the line of scrimmage he stopped sud-
denly, whirled around with lightning
speed and sent the ball zooming high
and far in the direction of the San
ford goal line.
Then for the first time the crowd
realized that the Colburn end had
OUTRAGED the Sanford secondaries and
was free and clear in the open. The
ball covered some so yards of ground,
travelling straight and true all the way.
Bloomgarten seemed to pay no atten-
ton to the pigskin that was sailing
toward him. He kept running as fast
as he could. Just when it appeared
that the beautiful pass would go for
naught, he turned his head slightly,
glanced over his shoulder and let the
ball settle in his hands.
The pigskin seemed to give him
added impetus and inspiration, for he
forged ahead with leaps and bounds
and went on to cover the remaining
distance and score touchdown. AS
the deafening roar went up from the
Colburn stands, Chuck's heart pounded
in his breast. There was something
singularly thrilling about foot ball, he
concluded, especially about tossing a
pass like that which netted a touch
down.

transferred to the Columbia pike run
for the afternoon. On his first trip,
as he came to the Rosslyn intersec-
ton where the two lines go their sep
arate ways, driving habit prevailed
and he turned blithely up the Clar-
endon route. A few passengers fldgeted
a bit, but said nothing for a few
blocks. Then q young lady sitting

we're in somehow"
II think we can, Coach" said
Chuck. IF you don't mind us taking
a chance. I've been watching their
ends. They play more laterally than
they do a charging game. Even their
line just takes an initial charge and
then comes to a halt to play terri
tory. I was thinking that We could
use that old pass of ours, where the
quarterback takes the ball from under
the center. bluffs it to back, runs
back Is yards and lets it go way
down the field to the end. Sanford's
playing a 1922 defense and Bloom
garten can get past their backs, I'm
sure"
II think there's something to what
you say, Arnold. Well wait and see
how things shape up"
Every one on the players bench
was tense. All eyes were on the two
teams, battling away down in Col
burns territory. Once again Colburn
was forced to kick on second down
to get out of trouble And just as
inevitably Sanford was again in scor-
ing position on the Colburn 25-yard
line.

up and down the sidelines. He

well. IF you find yourself in the
same predicament we're in now, let
'em have that long pass. Be sure
to get it away fast, though; they
may throw you in the end zone for
a safety"
"I will, Coach"
GO ahead in!"
Chuck raced out across the field,
holding his hand aloft as signal
to the official to stop the play. The
Colburn stands, seeing a change was
being made in the lineup, went into
a demonstration of frenzied excite
ment.
Nancy, spying Chuck going into the
game, didn't know whether to laugh
or cry She was ever so happy. She
wanted to tell her father who it
was, but She thought she'd let him
find out for himself. 1t would be
more fun.
who the devil are they putting
in there?" asked Mr.. Marshall, hold
ing his binoculars up to see if he
could see the number on Chucks
back "Confound the loon, why
doesn't he turn around so can see
his number?"
Arnold for Stevens" said Chuck
to the rotund official.
Arnold for Stevens" repeated the
official for Stevens benefit. Stevens
ran over and patted Chuck on the
back. He wanted to offer a word Of
encouragement, but didn't dare.
Chuck understood the sincerity of the
gesture and stepped in behind the
team.
"Twenty-three! .. forty-Six! (.
eighty-onel" he barked out confidently
and inspiringly. The play was Salin-
ger through tackle. It was merely for
effect. Chuck wanted to bring the
secondaries in little closer.

he glared around at Chuck as though

call such play when In that location

"Signals!" cried Chuck emphatic
ally, with an inferential rebuke to
Sorrel for challenging his judgment.
"Forty-five! sixty two! sew

The ball was snapped into Chuck's
hands as he crouched low under the
center's widespread legs. The backs
shifted over to block any incoming
