 Tn the inaugural address Mir sa- vino delivered the following talk:
 No doubt many of you are not familiar with the purpose and rea- sons why 1t has been decided an organization of this kind Is needed. For many years Brooklyn and Town Plot districts have been without any leaders for the people in the affairs of our city and the result has been that these districts have been discriminated against by those in power. We do not have the representation and improve ments that we, as taxpayers and voters, are entitled to. The Ques- tion may arise what are we look- ing for? The answer is simple.

Department officials today grew i'm

government concerning its attitude
toward applying a general embargo
against Italy.
officials here have stated re-

no legal authority for application
of such an embargo, They have
intimated that this position has been
communicated clearly and unmistak-

stitutionally, to cooperate with the
League under President RooSevelt'S
admonition Of nearly two weeks ago

them that any trade attempted with
either Italy or Ethiopia must be
conducted at the traders own risk
Secretary Cordell Hull repeatedly
has said he does not anticipate any
formal request from the League
powers for application of gen.
eral embargo against Italy. He has
intimated that the European gov
ernmentS would commit a tactical
error if they make a formal request
of this government because of the
unfavorable moral effect which an
outright refusal might have. Mr.
Hull and mis- staff profess to see no

Britain Is Adamant

BV IHitcd Press
PARIS, Oct 18-Great Britain,
confidently awaiting a pledge from
France early next week that she
will cooperate with the British fleet
in the Mediterranean, today firmly
maintained her attitude of not max
ing the slightest concession to Italy
unless Italy halts her war in Africa.
Premier Pierre Laval of France,
although finally willing. to back
Britain, nevertheless continued his
efforts to keep the way open for
peaceful negotiations. To that end,
he tentatively suggested that Britain
remove few big warships if Italy
removes excess soldiers from
Libya, adjoining Egypt.
Britain, it was learned officially,
refused to do so, contending that
Libya is not concerned" in the con-
trOvcrSy. The British position
amounts to an ultimatum to Italy
that the only gesture which would
cause reduction of Britain's Medi-
terranean feet would be the Italian
withdrawal from Ethiopia.
