Adds ABABA, Abyssinia, Feb.
15.-Emperor Halle SelaSSie I re-
vealed today that he is depending
on the League of Nations and on an
army waiting back in the towering,
formidable mountains of his ancient
country to see Ethiopia through its
crisis with Italy.
His tone, in receiving the United
Press correspondent, was pacific.
Everything he said emphasized a
desire for peace and for friendship
with Italy. He took the view that
there was every basis for equitable
solution of all outstanding disputes.
But in concluding one of the few
public statements he ever has made,
the emperor said:
I'VE will not be coerced nor init
Undated into acquiescing to negotia-
tons following any other course"
(than friendly, direct negotiations,
leading to arbitration, as recon-
mended by the League of Nations)
The emperor said that his stand
ing army in Harar and Bali prov
inces was sufficient for defense pur-
poses without reinforcement. There
fore, he said, there was no reason
to take extraordinary measures
which might possibly be construed
as provocative.

Handicapped BY a sore throat as
ne rose TO defend his measure,
Senator Chambers was accorded the
courtesy Of a quiet and respectful,
though hostile. audience.
This will come because it is
is right" he said. qualified school
officials can manage schools better
than politicians. Indiana is one Of
the three remaining states where
this antiquated system exists.
What If I we're to ask yOs- TO put
city schools back in ward politics? ?"
Senator Chambers asked.
There is not a senator here that
would vote for such proposal. The
question that you must decide here
is whether the political influence Of
the 1915 township trustees in In
diana shall be measured against
the welfare OF the 100000 children
in township schools"
Senator Jesse E. Wade ID, Mt.
Vermont said that he agreed with
Senator Chambers. that the ideas
incorporated in the measure we're
fine. and that they would come true,
but that the Assembly needed at
least two more years to think about
them. He asked that the bill be
killed.
