The treaty is now being whipped

with accompanying protocols, the

as soon as the conflict is over.
The pact, it is stated, will enc

London and Rome that has existed
since the Ethiopian campaign
began in 1885. In addition, it will
state Mussolini has no territorial
ambitions in Spain.
CHAMBERLAIN WINS
Preparations for signature Of
the pact went forward after Prime
Chamberlain again
emerged victorious from a bout
with Parliament over his foreign
policy of European appeasement
by means of deals with dictator
nations.
After a stormy session in the
House of Commons, the govern,
ment won a smashing triumph
when an opposition motion to cen.
sure the cabinet and call an i'm.
mediate election was showed under
by $50 votes to 1852.
Prior to the vote, Chamberlain
defended his policy by warning:
1.-THE alternative policy advo-
Gated by his majesty's opposi-
ton would lead inevitably to
war. Abandonment of the Span
ish non-intervention pact, as
urged by the opposition, would
be disastrous. You would have
sinking of ships, possibly naval
battles, and a European war"
BUTCHERY CHARGED
The censure motion was intro
duced by Arthur Greenwood, vet
eran laborite, who said:
1.-THE present government pol
icy is permitteing the people Of
Spain to be butchered in order
to make a Roman holiday
Chamberlain resisted laborite
demands for a general election
with the assertion:
"This is not the time to dis
turb a country that is in the
throes of rearmament."
Meanwhile, the governments
program to speed up rearmament
met serious snag when leaders
of the powerful Amalgamated En-
cheering Union, comforting with

Until such guarantees are forth
