VIENNA, October 26.-Franz Won
Papen, German Minister to Austria,
returned to Vienna today after see
ing Reichsfuehrer Adolf Hitler, giving
an effective denial to reports that he
was about to be withdrawn.
An impression persisted in diplo-

Papen lost prestige at Berlin when
the recent Austrian cabinet change
was effected without hint of soft
ening of Austria's pronounced anti
Nazi attitude.
Won Papen's original mission to
Vienna was to counteract official Aus

tank River bridge. The Sequoia will
be the first vessel to pass under the
draw of the mile-and-three-q quarter
ribbon of steel linking Dorchester and
Talbot counties on the Eastern Shore.
The President was met at Annapolis
by Senator Radcliffe of Maryland.
Wearing a topcoat for protection
against a cool, crisp breeze, he had
ridden from Washington in an open
car.
Throngs poured into Cambridge
from all parts of the State to obtain
glimpse of the President as the city
declared a half-holiday and decked
itself out in festive style.
Mr.. Roosevelt said at the White
House today before he left for the trip
he will neither speak nor go ashore
at Cambridge. Accompanying him on
the cruise across Chesapeake Bay were
the Secretary of Agriculture and Mrs.
Wallace and Mr.. and Mrs. David Gray
of Portland, Me, the latter an aunt
OF Mrs. Roosevelt
The Yacht will steam down the bay
to the mouth of the Potomac after the
dedication and then proceed up the
river late tomorrow to arrive at Wash
ington Navy Yard shortly after dark
Mr.. Roosevelt was looking forward
to the brief rest this cruise will afford
him, after his strenuous hours at his
office since his return from the West
Coast Thursday morning.
Mr.. Roosevelt has not yet decided
definitely just when he will leave
Washington next week for his home
at Hyde Park, N. Y, but indications
are he will depart probably Wednes-
day or Thursday night. He will take
along with him a quantity of work
which will occupy him during the
greater part of his days at Hyde
Park. He will remain there until
after election day. November 5, ano
then return to the White House.
Chief speaker on the Cambridge
program is Gov. Harry w. Nice. In
the stand behind him are to be three
former Governors of Maryland-Al-
bert c. Ritchie, Emerson G. Harring-
ton and Phillips Lee Goldsborough.
The Governors of four neighboring
States were likewise on the list OF
invited guests. They were c, Douglass
Buck, Delaware; George c. Peery,
Virginia; George H. Earle, Pennsyl-
vania, and Harold G. Hoffman,
New Jersey.
The bridge and its two approaches
required more than year and hall
to build The P. w. A. furnished the
money for the approaches and gave
a 80 per cent grant for labor and
materials for the main span.

BRITAIN ORDERS
SANCTIONS PLACED
Authoritative Sources See

BY the Associated Press.

by Jno Associated HreSS.
LONDON, October 26.-Authorita-
tive sources said today that stale
mate had been reached in efforts to
end the Italo-Ethiopian War and that
there were no hopes for an early ces-
Sation of hostilities.
At the same time, the Treasury De-
partment ordered that Great Britain's
financial sanctions against Italy be
placed in operation next Tuesday.
Effective Tuesday.
The official treasury explanation
said financial sanctions were being
applied under article of the League
covenant and refers to loans and
credits to or for the benefit of "l) the
government of any Italian territory,
(2) and a person mot being body
corporate) of whatever nationality
resident in such territory. and 81 any
person wherever a resident) being a
body corporate incorporated under the
law of any such territory"
The Treasury Department explained
that Italian nationals resident outside
Italian territory we're excluded from
the provisions of these sanctions, but
their branches (of corporations) in
other countries of corporations incor-
porated in Italian territory were in
cluded.
Conversely, other nationals, includ-
ing British. which are resident in
Italian territory, are included under
the provisions but the branches in
Italian territory of corporations in
corporated in other countries are ex-
cluded.
Peace Efforts Fail.
Informed sources saio that the
progress of the peace negotiations Of
Premier Mussolini of Italy and Pre-
mier Laval of France had virtually
broken down and that there was little
hope for them unless the Italians came
forward with new proposals which
would be acceptable to the League
of Nations and Ethiopia.
These authorities viewpoint was
that the proposals thus far advanced
by the Italians are unacceptable to
the league. are regarded as unsatis-
factory by Great Britain, have failed
to impress Laval and meet with En-
peror Halle Selassie's disapproval.
Emphasizing an official viewpoint
that no progress has been made on
the pathway of peace, the British gov
ernment declared that the leagues
plans for sanctions against Italy would
be carried on absolutely as outlined"
with no weakening, and with no de-
lay.
Munitions Are Banned.
simultaneously it was officially an
nounced that the munitions of war
sanctions against Italy became opera
tive yesterday.
In addition to the financial sane
tions, which go into effect Tuesday,
economic sanctions are to be levied as
soon as the League Council orders
them, presumably early in November.
All the British legal machinery for
making sanctions effective was ar
ranged through the publication Of
orders in council and the official treas
ury announcement prohibiting financial
dealings of a certain character with
Italians after Tuesday.
