boys and girls this Christmas these
little Americans may be bitter in their
hearts, feeling that there is no Santa

All the old-timers know there is a

Some of these poor little children

Who believes that only the rich

! Many mothers today are concerned
with this problem: How to get toys
and clothing for their children at
Christmas?
The Star is trying to help out in
such situations. With the aid of the
Warner Brothers TheaterS and the
National Broadcasting Co. all the
good folk of the city are being enlisted
in the campaign to provide toys-and
clothing-for the unfortunate children
whose fathers are out of work For
children whose mothers are their only

neither fathers nor mothers.
Time works strange tricks. Last
Christmas might have been a real
Christmas in homes that this year feel
the pinch of poverty-the cold,
clammy hand of destiny on the door

Fate deals some strange hands in
that card game they call life. Nobody
is immune. Fortune is tickle. The
poor this year may have been reason
ably wealthy this year-and next year,

So, old Santa Claus, contemplating
the ever shifting scene, sends little

slightly more than we need: Help out
some of the poor unfortunates. Please!

sharp revolt breaking through the
ranks of the Conservatives in the
House of Commons forced the govern
ment today to hastily withdraw ap-
proval of a Franco-British plan for
Ethiopian peace and reopen the nego-
tiations with Paris.
Attempting to avert a threatened
political crisis, with opposition re-
ported even in the cabinet itself, the
government ordered the British Am

In parliamentary circles 1t was
stated the strong stand against the
government program was brought on
by what was described as a proposal
to permit Premier MuSsolini of Italy
to virtually dictate "conqueror's terms"

Baldwin Attacked.
Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin,
vehemently attacked in Parliament by
the opposition, refused to reassure the
members that the government was still
upholding the principal that the ag-

gression.
The position of Anthony Eden, Brit

rumored he would resign because of
his strong disapproval of the plan of
Foreign Secretary Sir Samuel Hoare

The foreign Office summoned high
commissioners of the British domin-

Maurice Peterson, foreign Office ex-

opian question.
Cabinet Rejection Seen.
The resumption of negotiations lent
credence to reports the cabinet, meet

marily rejected the tentative agree
ment previously proposed.
This agreement had been reached
in conversations between Hoare and
Laval in Paris.
AS the cabinet met in an emergency
session again to discuss the peace pro-
posals. the strictest official silence was
maintained on overnight develop

denied. that Anthony Eden. British
