LONDON, August 10.-The odds
for war in Ethiopia were rated at
to in diplomatic circles here today
as British ministers put the finishing
touches on a strategy that Anthony
Eden, minister for League affairs, will
follow at the tri-power conference
with Italy and France in Paris next
week
Great Britain, it was stated in
authoritative quarters, will press Italy
to reveal the full scope of her aims
in Ethiopia. preferably during the
Paris talks, but if not then, certainly
at the League Council session in
Geneva September 4.
1t is now apparent, spokesman
said, that Ethiopia will definitely re-
ject any Italian demands for annexa-
ton or political sovereignty.
For this reason it was felt that the
lone hope OF averting war, with its
possible far reaching repercuSsions
over Europe. hinges on a full state
ment of Italy's plans-a statement
whether II Duce will limit his activi-
ties to frontier protection or whether
he intends to go farther.
Unoficially, there was extreme pes
simism here that the Paris confer
ence, starting either Thursday or Fri
day. can do more than crystalline the
crisis and leave the next step for the
League.

Q. D. Sullivan, who reported hourly
to the Alameda base from the time
the clipper jumped an offshore fog
that had crippled surface shipping
and delayed for hours entrance of
part Of the United States fleet into
San Francisco Bay.
The 2,4O0-mile hop to Honolulu was
the first leg of the flight to tiny Wake
Island, lonely atoll station on the
Pan-America's projected passenger

From Hawaii the clipper will fly
1900 miles to Midway Island. which
is midway across the Pacific, and then

flights were to Honolulu and return

HOLLYWOOD, Calf, August 10
Stephen Simkhovitch, "a, has agreed
to become human icicle for science
under contract entered into here
with DR.. Ralphs Willard, the monkey
freezing chemist.
Simkhovitch, powerfully built
scenarist, was chosen for this unique
experiment from among 100 persons
DR.. Willard said had offered them
selves in the interests of medical SCI
ence
The chemist said the experiment
will begin as soon as a refrigerator
suitable to contain the human sub
ject can be built.
Law May Call Halt.
Informed of the matter. Dr. George
Parrish, city health officer, declared
DR.. Willard was entering a danger

The law in most States is so drastic
that a person attempting suicide and

am sure the law would not permit
DR.. Willard to carry his human guinea
pig idea any further than the ex-

Attorneys who drew the contract
added that if circumstances arise to
prevent making the experiment in
the United States it will be carried
out in Mexico or any other country
where no interference is offered.
Monkey Revived.
DR.. willard, who said he has
frozen solid and later revived small
animals over a period of six years in
seeking aid for tuberculosis sufferers,
announced he had brought one
Rhesus monkey, named Jekal, from a
frozen state last Monday without ap-

A second monkey died and a third,
DR.. willard said, still is frozen, but
is to be revived next week.

witch insisted today. I'm event I die
I want it so no claim possibly can
be made against DR.. willard"
The young scientist insisted he
would not proceed with the expert
ment without the presence of at least
six medical doctors to make exhaustive
physical examinations of Simkhovitch
and watch the entire proceeding.
Wants to Aid Humanity.
Simkhovitch, who said he was the
son of professor of economic history
at Columbia University, and of Mrs.
Mary K. Simkhovitch, a student of
sociology in New York, declared he
was prompted only by a desire to
do something for humanity for a
change"
II wish also to know something
about the soul and its relation to
the human body" he said. II wish
to know what happens when person
dies and ! want to be able to come
back and tell of those happenings.
Life itself is unimportant where
such vital matters as these are con-
cerned. Some one must make these
experiments some time. Why shouldn't
I be the one to do it?"

Bearing out predictions that the
conservative group in the Senate FL
nance Committee would WELD sufh-
Gent power to force extensive modltl-
cations in the pending tax leglSla-
ton, reports were current today that
tentative decisions already have been
reached to make several changes
Although officially the committee
still is functioning behind its SELF
imposed veil of secrecy, reports OF the
following revisions leaked out last
night and this morning:
That the committee deliberations
yesterday morning concerned prin-
cipally the inheritance tax section,
and that the new schedule OF rates re-
quested of the consultant experts at
that time is for application to the ex-
listing estate taxes. Abandonment OF
inheritance tax provisions, II such is
finally voted. in favor Of revised estate
taxes would be a direct exception TO
the wishes of President Roosevelt as
expressed in his message to Congress
on June l9.
Per Cent Profit Tax Urged.
That the late afternoon session Of
the committee decided to cut down
the proposed new excess profits rates,
t''oir version to be a per cent tax
on pre- fits between 10 and IS per cent
of adjusted value, with a II per cent
tax on all profits above Is per cent.
Tie proposed rate, as included in the
House measure, runs from per cent
to Is per cent on profits between 8
and Is per cent of value and of 20
per cent on all profits abUve that mark.
The present law provides fiat S per
cent on all profits above 1912 per cent.
That the committee approved the
House rates for graduation of corpo-
ration income tax from 1914 per cent
to 14A pc cent after voting down
attempts to substitute the Presidents
suggestil-4 for a graduation from 1014
to 1914 per cent. The present rate
is 1334 per cent for I'll.

individual Revision Likely.
1t was reported also that the new
surtax rates on individual incomes will
undergo a thorough overhauling and
probably will be lowered from the
point approved by the House.
While this trend for modification
of the legislation was prevailing in
yesterdays sessions of the committee,
it was understood that Senator La
Toilette, Progressive. of Wisconsin,
and one or two other members of the
so-called liberal group still were in
Sistent on a broader tax program
Failure to carry their point in the
committee deliberations undoubtedly
will mean that they will offer such
amendments on the floor when the
bill reaches that stage.
The committee was continuing it's
executive sessions today.

Psychiatrists Start League, Fear

MADRID, August 10 P).-A move
ment to form an "anti-alcohol league"
in Spain to encourage temperance has
been begun by two well-known psy-
chiatrists.
The doctors, Eduardo Varela de
Seijas and Antonio Garcia Munoz in
a letter calling for public support of
the movement, declared that while
drunkenness was no problem in Spain,
the amount of alcohol consumed
nevertheless is injurious to the race.
They said temperance was partic-
ularly important for the welfare of
children, who otherwise might inherit
feebleness from alcoholic parents.
