to take steps to stop the piracy" in
the Mediterranean. Moreover, they
| intend to do so.
In one high diplomatic quarter re-
gret was expressed that the Soviet
Union, by its protest to Italy, should
have rather poisoned" the atmosphere
on the eve of important international
discussions. The same persons, how
ever, said they we're not surprised at
Moscow's action.
Talks on Ethiopia Planned.
One reason why Italy may decide it
is worth her while to be at the con-
ference is that England and France
are reported planning behind-the-
scenes talks on some form of recogni-
ton of the Italian conquest of Ethiopia.
Non-recognition Of that conquest has
kept Italy away from Geneva for al
most two years.
In London today, Foreign Secretary
Anthony Eden, who win lead the
British delegation to Switzerland. con-
ferred with Prime Minister Neville
Chamberlain.
British proposals, to be placed before
whatever of the IL invited powers at
tend the conference, are understood to
include:
/. Registration of all submarines
operating in the Mediterranean.
2. Measures to keep submarines of
ali powers within definite zones.
3. An undertaking that the war
ships of all conferring powers shall
defend each others shipping
The conference is to be held at
Nyon, town near Geneva. The Swiss
Federal Council today approved the
holding of the talks there.
But if Italy does not go to Nyon
Germany doubtless will stay away too
both charging Russia with torpedo
ing the conference and refusing to be
bound by any agreement reached at
Nyon.
The Friday conference of powers
