Mussolini’s Intent
Conquer Ethiopia
Resembles Austria
(By The Associated Press)
PARIS, Aug. 19, —A high official
said privately that the three pow-'
er stresa front of Britain, Italy and
Fi ance had been broken and ‘Fran
ce must resign herself to losing It-1
aly's friendship.
Italy’s apparent determination to
conquer Ethiopia was described by
one governmental authority as a test
for the League. He said the Leag- ,
ue must triumph or there will be
chaos.
He recalled that ‘the whole world
went to war because of what Aus
tria proposed to do to Serbia which
was a good deal less than what Mus
solini intends doing to Ethiopia. The
League may well face the situation.
It did nothing when Japan and
Germany defied the Letague, but
now it must stand or fall on the is
sue.”
