Japan Market TOuChy


TOXIC, Sept. 19.-FalSe reports
that Italy had accepted a League of
Nations compromise in its dispute
with Ethiopia upset the Toxic Stock
Market temporarily today, carrying
downward stocks which had been
advancing steadily because of the
possibility of war.
The market rallied after receiving
a report from the Nippon Dempo
News Service denying that the
ItalO-E Ethiopian dispute was on the
verge of settlement.
A market statiStician estimated
that all stocks in Japan had in
creased 900, 100000 yen in total value
between Aug. l and Sept. l, prin-
cipally because of the war Situa-
ton.
Shipping stocks have been espe-
cially active. Spectators have CEN
tered their activities on this class
Of shares, envisioning vastly greater
earnings for the shipping compa-
MES in the eventuality of war.
Spectators and investors alike are
beginning to rely heavily On gen.
uine news reports because many
have suffered losses through re-
ports provided ~ private informa
ton Yesterday private sources cir
culated a report that Italy had
withdrawn from the League. The
rumor sent NYK and OSK ship
ping line stocks sharply inward.
Italian interests have tried to
purchase idle Japanes passenger
ships. but that the government sub
s!dy program, offering companies
new ships in return for scrapping
Anticipated carriers, was likely TO
prevent any sales to the European
nation.

NATURAL GAS
OFFER RUMORS
CALLED FALSE
Definite 0VertureS Have Not
Been Made, Utilities
Board Head Says.

Rumors that definite overtures
have been made by natural gas in
tereSts to bring gas to indianapolis
were denied today by Henry L.
Dithmer, president Of the board Of
directors OF the City Utilities Dis
trict.
The city has received no affirma-
tive inquiries by any natural gas
concern since taking over the Citi-
zens Gas Co. as a municipality
owned utility two weeks ago. Mr..
Dithmer said.
At that time the district directors
announced that they we're ready TO
confer with natural gas pipe line
companies.
The Columbia Gas and Electric
Co, whose subsidiary, the Indiana
Gas Transmission Co. has a pipe
line running across the northwest
ern part of Marion County. has
been frequently mentioned as a
probable bidder for a natural gas
contract with the city. but as yet
has made no definite offer. This
was affirmed today by Joseph j.
Daniels. indianapolis counsel for
Columbia.
In the meantime, reports have
been received from Chicago that
Columbia is negotiating for con-
tracts to supply Kokomo and other
north central Indiana cities with
natural gas. Possible effects of this
move on the Indianapolis situation
are not known.
Russell J. Ryan. former Superior
judge, today assumed his duties as a
director of the Utilities District. Mr..
Ryan was named to the board sew
eral weeks ago but was in Europe at
the time. He returned to the city

Problem for u. S.

BIZ ScripPs-Hotr9rd Atirepa5er AUfqu~e
WASHINGTON. Sept. I9.-The
little word may" will hold world
Of meaning Tor the United States If
the Ethiopian crisis turns into a
League war against Italy.
BY order Of Congress. President
Roosevelt must declare an embargo
on munitions exports to Italy ana
Ethiopia if they start a war But
If England and other powers get
into the conflict later on. under the
neutrality resolution the President
may extend the embargo to cover
the newcomers.
Here is the situation
Many observers believe Italy VIII
proceed against Ethiopia without a
formal declaration of war, once the
rainy season ends-much as Japan
proceeded against Manchuria If
and when that development occurs,
the President must decide whether a
war Is IN progress.
The neutrality resolution decreed
that upon the outbreak or during
the progress Of q war the Presi-
dent shall proclaim such a fact, 8"
and that thereafter the export of
arms. ammunitiOns and implements
OF war to the belligerent states shall
be prohibited.
Whether the President may be eX-
peCted to act the minute word comes
that Italy has crossed the border, CT
to await an important armed clash,
the State Department will not say
State Department Silent
A much more complicated decision
would confront the President if d
League war" to enforce penalties
against Italy as an aggresSor were
to occur.
Would such a League war be
war within the meaning Of the neu-
traHty resolution? Would Mr.
Roosevelt be bound to impose an
embargo on arms shipments to Great
Britain? The State Department has
not said.
However, it is significant that,
while the resolution requires that an
embargo shall" be placed against
nations among whom a war breaks
out, it provides that the President
may" extend this embargo to
other states as and when they may
become involved in such war
For example, if British men-Of-
war barred the Suez Canal to Italian
troop ships it would apparently be
~ to the President alone to decide
whether an embargo against Britain
would best serve the interest of this
country And a famous declaration
by Ambassadors t-Large Norman H.
Davis might become in such circum-
stances of tremendous importance.
It's All a Tangle
Davis said in {. speech at Geneva
last year that While the United
States was not willing to join other
nations in the direct use of force
to compel peace. it would refrain
from any action to hamper such
a move by other powers provided
the United States agreed with them
that the accused nation was guilty
of aggression.
Thus, if the doctrine enunCiated
by Davis IS valid, it is considered
possible here that the President
might forbid shipments of arms to
Italy and Ethiopia but refrain from
any such action against Britain and
other League powers
Even if punitive action in the
Leagues name were to provoke a
formal declaration of war by Italy
against Britain, it appears from the
use of the verb may" in the neu-
tralIty resolution that the President
would not be bound to extend the
embargo to Britain.
