LONDON LOOKS FOR
EARLY FRIENDSHIP
PACT WITH ITALY
CONTINUED from page one)

Continued from page one)
W. Rendell, is expected to submit
Britain's proposals regarding the
governments plans in connection
with Palestine and the eastern
Mediterranean to Count Galeazzo
Ciano,. Italian foreign minister,
Monday. ......
Other points of the pact, it was
reliably stated, will be:
A reaffirmation Of the january,
1897, Anglo-Italian ''gentlemen's
agreement" recognizing the sta
tus quo Of interests in the Medi-
terranean.
A formula whereby Britain will
recognize ltaly's annexation Of
Ethiopia, although Britain still is
trying to link such recognition
with League of Nations endorse
mcnt.
A reaffirmation of Britain's
part, in Difference to Premier Be-
nito Mussolini's wishes, of certain
clauses of the 1883 Suez agree
ment relating to freedom of trans
it through the canal.
A mutual promise to refrain
from building any Notifications
along the eastern shores of the
Red sea.
A pledge by Mussolini to re-
frain from raising any black
army in Ethiopia.
British safeguards for contln-
ued access to the head waters Of
Lake Tana, essential for Sudanese
cotton plantations.
Mutual assurances to refrain
from hostile or subvcrSlvc propa-
ganda in the near and middle east
and elsewhere.
Musolini's promise to reduce
his Libyan garrison, threat to
France as well as to Great Brit
ain, has been given great public
ity in discussing of the forthcom-
ing pact but British diplomats re.
gard such a pledge as being OF
small value because, in event OF
conflict, the Libyan troops couid
be replcnished on short notice

NATURALIZATION
FOR PHILIPPINES,
ISOLATIONIST GOAL

Continued from page one)
Of independence, including Nc
Mutt, have insisted that neutrali-
zation- would be impractical and
visionary unless the United States
undertook to guarantee territor-
ial inviolability by force. This
might involve America in war,
McNutt pointed out.
Stefan. and King said they
probably would offer resolutions
asking the department of state to
begin negotiations for the treat
les. The Tydings-McDuffie indie
pendence' act vests the president
with discretionary authority to
call such conferences if, before
independence he deems them nee
essaly for future protection of
the Archipelago.
According to the Stefan-king
plan all the powers with interests
in the. Pacific would be asked to
respect Philippine independence
and to subscribe to a formula
guaranteeing the political and
territorial integrity and neutral
ity of the islands. The Philippines
government in turn would be re-
quired to refrain from becoming
party to, or accessory Of, Aslat-
ic belligerency, and to refrain
from involvement or participation
in any international conflict.
No nation would be permitted
to have military establishments IN
the islands. Hence the United
States would be required to With
draw it's arm and naval forces.
