Washington Leans Toward

BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS
Scripps- Howard Foreign Editor

WASHINGTON, Aug. e
Great Britain is understood
here to have informed Italy
at Geneva that she will have
to be satisfied with railway
and economic concessions in
Ethiopia, or nothing.
To obtain more, Italy will have to
go to war. And if she does that she
must take the consequenceS-wha

Britain is believed to be after
what would amount to league
mandate, if necessary, to halt Mus
solini and win over the major out
side powers, at least to a position
of benevolent neutrality.
President Roosevelt and Secretary
Cordell Hull have gone out Of their
way to reiterate this country's hope
that the league will be able to pre-
vent war. There is every reason to
believe that if war comes, and the
league intervenes, the United States
will give the league its moral sup
port.
Japan Takes Similar View
Japan is understood to take a
To
moral leadership of the billion col
ored people of the world. hence may
be expected to cooperate with the
league to prevent Ethiopia becoming
an italian protectorate.
Utmost importance is attached
here to the statements last night of
Sir Samuel Hoare, British foreign
minister. and George Lansbury,
leader of the Labor Party.
"Abyssinia," said the usually
mild-spoken Sir George, must not
be thrown to the wolves for the sake
of a FranSo-I Italian understanding.
Recalling that the British Empire
numbers 100000 whites and 430,-
600 900 colored, he declared Britain
has the strongest interest in depre-
eating the outbreak of a struggle
which may be represented as a con-
test between white and colored."
Covenant to Be Upheld
Lansbury said the Labor party
will support the government as long
as the government stands by its
obligations under the League COW
enant."
Said Sir George, "The govern
ment is fully conscious of its obi
cations under the treaties and I'M
der the covenant of the League, and
intends to hold to them"
The covenant formally pledges
members to regard aggressive war
against one as war against all, and
to 60 to the assistance of the VIC
tim of such aggression.
In diplomatic circles it has long
been known that Britain regards
Mussolini's plans in Africa as peril
GUS in the extreme. But only now
have her Spokesman publicly ad-
mitted the gravity of the crisis or
given any public indication of the
lengths to which she Is prepared
to go.
