begun, to replace the expiring treaty
of 1871, it was announced ofiicially to-
day.
The announcement also disclosed the
denuncistion today OF the existing pact,

For some months" an official COM
munique stated, commercial negotia-
tionS have been going On between Italy
and the United States and the treaty
drafts are now in the course Of ex-
animation.
eign Minister Count Galleazo Ciano

orandum denouncing the agreement Of

necessities Of the present.
This denunciation will become ef-
fective a year from now"

tions centered on a new commercial
treaty, not on q separate trade agree
ment, which will come up later.
The commercial treaty. it was said,
provides for consular rights and priv
ileges, provisions for taxation and
agreements on such matters as au-
thority to engage in business.
Negotiations will be initiated for a
trade agreement on lines similar to
those concluded by the United States
with Canada. France and other ma
tions. but will be deferred until the
commercial treaty is signed, it was said.
An official American source said the
commercial treaty was one of friend
ship. commerce and navigation. He
said it embraced most favored nation
treatment and provided equal rights
for American business men in Italy
with Italians, and Italians in the
United States with Americans.
The navigation section was said to
include many technical clauses with
respect to port fees and regulations.
Consular matters, which were in
cluded in the 1871 pact. will be the
subject of a separate treaty to be
signed, probably. in January.

LEADERS GATHER
TO REVIVE c. D. P.
Hamilton Resignation Cues.
ton Foremost at Chi
Cago Meeting.
Ry the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, December 16.-National
Republican leaders, rallying from one
of the worst defeaets in their party's
history, gathered today to begin
program of rehabilitation.
Their first task was to decide-at
meetings of the Executive Committee
today and the National Committee to-
morrow-what to do with Chairman
John Hamilton'S offer to resign.
They could give the chairman the
Repression of confidence" he said
would be necessary before he would
undertake the job of keeping the
minority party command during the
next four years, or they could formally
accept his resignation and make a
new start with a new leader.
Hamilton indicated in Washington
last night his belief that the time
for plain speaking had arrived.
Pledge of Full Time.
He has pledged his "full-time and
wholehearted effort" toward liquidat-
ing the 81 100000 deficit rolled up in
the contest for the presidency.
Some dozen of the national commit
tlemen have Signifled their intention
of supporting movement to keep
Hamilton at the helm. Vice Chair
man Ralph E. Williams of Oregon
predicted 10 days ago that the Kansan
would be retained.
Some sentiment also was expressed
for change III favor of a personality
not quite so closely connected with
the November debacle.
Representative Fish of New York,
who has said Hamilton must go" as
a step toward liberalization, was en-
route to Chicago. In Washington it
was reported he had one or more
proxies from members of the COM
mittee and proposed to attend the
meetings.
LandOn Is Reticent.
AS the committee members arrived
Tor their executive session comment
was scarce. Harrison E. Spengler,
national committeeman for Iowa and
Hamilton's chief lieutenant during the
campaign, said he was unaware of
the agenda Of the executive meeting.
Gov. Alf NJ. Landon, the party's No.
venber standard bearer, announced at
Topeka he would have no statement
to present to the conferences.

a settlement, which later will be pre-

at any time.
1t appears that the conversations
between Mr.. Bullitt and the French
leaders have been satisfactory.
Blum has selected as his AmbaSsa-
dor to Washington Georges Bonnet, a
strong political opponent OF his. But
Bonnet, a former minister Of finance.
is the man who negotiated successfully
the reciprocal trade agreement with
the United States. He is reported to
have accepted the position as Ambas-
sador to this country in order to bring
the debt negotiations to a satisfac-
tory conclusion.
In official quarters it is expected
that when he arrives he will have full
powers to negotiate a settlement of
the war debts. In view OF the fact
Bonnet is politician with ambi-
tions for premiership, it is believed
that he is convinced that the debts
can be settled without trouble. Other
wise. he would not have accepted a
job which might injure him politi-
cally in case of failure.

trip to Hawaii by way of the Panama
Canal: a 1885 trip to the pacific Coast
