MILE. LAVAL
WEDS COUNT

PARIS, Aug. 10 G.NS0.-In a
simple civil ceremony, Mile.
Josette Pierrette Laval. only child
of Premier Pierre Laval of France,
was married here today to Count
Rene Adelbert Pineton de Cham
brun, New York and Paris lawyer
and descendant of the great
American Revolutionary hero, the
Marquis de Lafayette.
Twenty persons attended the
ceremony in the city hall of the
Sixteenth Arondissement. Th e
brides parents, Gen. John j..
Pershing and Mrs. Alice Roose-
velt Longworth and her daughter,
Paulina, were among them.
Attired in a plain business suit
and hatless, Count de Chambrun
arrived 10 minutes early. He
greeted the Laval family when
they arrived by automobile at the
stroke of noon.
General Pershing was accom-
panied by Fernand-Bouisson, presi-
dent of the Chamber of Deputies.
Count de Chamburn's first
best man" was his father, and his
second witness Maitre Louis
Dernys of the Paris bar, who gave
the young bridegroom his start in
law. Official witnesses for Mile.
Laval were Bouisson and her
uncle, Col. Louis Gonnard, Of the
French artillery.
The ceremony took half an
hour, after which there was a
brief period of handshaking fol-
lowed by a small intimate lunch
con at the foreign office. A
religious marriage will be per.
formed tomorrow.

Premier Laval had to exercise
all his famous diplomacy to avert
hosti1ities between leading Paris
couturiers over his daughters

wedding clothes from Schiaparelli,

international News Service

Facing the threat of a new
world war, the nations of Europe
struggled desperately today to
chart q path of action enabling
them to meet Italy's now seem
ingly inevitable aggression against
Ethiopia.
With collapse of tri.partite ne
gotiations in Paris, hopes of q
peaceful solution were virtually
abandoned, although the League
Of Nations will meet on September
4 IN a final effort to avert hostili.
ties.
Great Britain called a special
cabinet session to discuss the is
sue, with general belief prevailing
her arms embargo against both
Italy and Ethiopia will be lifted
shortly. Her sp0kesmen attempted
to line up the little entente ma
tions in preparation for the
Geneva session.
Meanwhile, the breach between
Italy and France widened. French
spokesmen made no attempt to
conceal their anxiety over the fu-
ture now that italy has rejected
plan for peaceful international
penetration of Ethiopia.
In Italy, meanwhile, Premier
Mussolini sent 10000 additional
troops to the front with "Abys-
sinia for use" as their war cry.

There is a bitter controversy
over Hauptmann's right to sell
the book, which would serve the
double purpose of raising funds
and creating sympathy for the
notorious prisoner.
c. Lloyd Fisher, chief of de.
tense counsel. said if Hauptmann
is forbidden to publish the book,
his wife, Mrs. Anna Hauptmann,
would print an autobiography on
which she is working.
Hauptmann wrote the book in
German, submitting the manu-
script page at a time to an EN-.
ploye of the prison who inter
preted 1t.
The book contains many
beautiful expressions" Fisher
said. 1t deals voluminously with
Hauptmann'S early life and en-
phasizeS acts Of kindness he says
he has done. It touches only
lightly on the Lndbergh case.

EXPLAINED

Although a majority of both the
House and Senate District Com
mittees favor the general principle
of the proposal to set up primary
system for the election of dele
gates to the Democratic and Re
publican national conventions
here, its failure of passage at
this session apparently resulted
because of the lack of someone
to prod it,"
This was shown today by a poll
of the membership of the two
committees by The Times.
OF the nine members of the
House District Committee who
were available for comment, five
favored the principle of the meas
ure, three expressed opposition,
and one declined to express an
opinion until he could study the
proposal in detail.
Approved by Six
Ten members of the Senate Dis
trict Committee were reached. OF
that number six voiced approval,
two opposition, and two declined
to take a stand without further
perusal.
Shortly after the present seS-
sion of Congress opened it ap-
peared that considerable pressure
would be brought to bear to pass
the bill, as it was introduced by
Representative Mary T. Norton

The President expects to go on

addressed particularly to the
young men and women, not only
of the organization, but Of the

opinion of President woodward,
There are enough young people

Special Cabinet Session
Called for Next Week

LONDON, Aug. 10 Q.N.SO.
Britain's first move, following col
lapse Of peace efforts in Paris, will
be to raise the embargo on arms
shipments to Ethiopia and Italy,
it was understood today.
A special cabinet meeting will
be called, possibly early next
week, to consider Britain's posi-
tion, but it was believed the arms
ban will be lifted even before then.
This will be a direct blow
against Italy'S bellicose attitude,
for Ethiopia, unable to make her
own munitions, protested that the
embargo Disseminated against
her.
Eden Returns Home
Granting of export licenses to
British armament firms had been
expected earlier, but the embargo
was temporarily retained in a last
hope that some means Of preServ-
ing peace might be found at
Paris.
Although widely scattered from
Scotland to Switzerland on their
vacations, the British cabinet min.
listers have been warned to stand
