Fish I I i Baron Aloisl BECAUSE it was prosecuting an undeclared war on Ethiopia, Italy was condemned as a violator of the covenant of the League of Nations and virtually virtu-ally declared to be an outlaw against which economic and financial sanctions sanc-tions are to be applied. ap-plied. That was the decision of 52 members of the league in a memorable mem-orable meeting of its assembly in Geneva. ' Three nations. na-tions. Italy itself and Austria and Hungary, refused to associate themselves with the assembly's action. The Austrian and Hungarian representatives al-' al-' ready had announced that they would not participate in any sanctions sanc-tions against Italy because of their political and economic relations with the Fascist government If any of the nations concurring in the league's decision wishes to declare war on Italy, it now has the legal right to do so. The nature na-ture of the penalties to be Imposed and the manner of procedure was to be determined by a committee Including all members of the league council, except Italy, and all Italy's Ita-ly's neighbor nations except Austria and Hungary. , The meeting of the assembly first heard an eloquent speceh on Italy's behalf by her chief delegate, Baron Pompcl Aloisl. lie charged that the league had been unfair, that it had used "two weights and two scales" in its work, that It had acted against Italy where It 'did not act against 'Japan in the Manchurlan crisis, that It did not even consider Italy's 'complaints against Ethiopia.

"France will face her ob ligations. I said this before the council. I repeat It before the assembly. as-sembly. The covenant is our inter national law." "Action must now be taken," said Anthony Eden of Great Britain. "I declare the readiness of his majesty's majes-ty's government to take full part la such action." Vladimir Potemkln of Russia an nounced that his government was determined to fulfill Its obligations. Switzerland also emphasized Its willingness to participate. "No other delegation has asked to speak." said President Benes Quietly. Qui-etly. "I Interpret the silence of all as Indicating the concurrence of their governments with the opinion of the members of the council. The assembly will place this on record, Austria and Hungary cannot of themselves supply Mussolini with much In the way of raw materials for war; but there is the chance that he may receive, through those countries, materials from Germany If the neutrality proclaimed by Hit columns were advancing Into Ethiopia Ethio-pia from the south and east with the city of Ilarrar and the country's one railway as their objective. Recent reports from Addis Ababa said the Italian minister, whose departure de-parture had been requested by the emperor, anounced that the Italian forces In the north sector had occupied oc-cupied the holy city of Aksum, the ancient capital of the queen of Sheba. There was no "resistance, and the Ethiopians saved their sacred sac-red relics. The kings of kings asked that other Italian legation officials depart de-part with the minister. The legation, lega-tion, he declared, had kept Its radio ra-dio communications In use after being be-ing requested to desist In Rome It was announced that Mussolini would retort by giving passports to the members of the Ethiopian legation and would launch a new drive toward Addis Ababa. ; Ethiopian cavalry made a daring dar-ing raid into Eritrea, killing some Italians and capturing others; but there was a report that a son-in-law of the emperor and another Ethiopian general lost their lives In this operation, HAMILTON FISn, JR., congressman congress-man from New York, is going to be a candidate for the Republican Republi-can Presidential nomination and will throw his bat into the ring about the middle of December.

'Mi- FLOYD GIBBONS Adventurers' Club C . Si - Bruno Hauptmann UNANIMOUS decision of the New Jersey court of errors and appeals ap-peals Is that Bruno Richard Hauptmann Haupt-mann was given a fair trial on the charge of murdering murder-ing Col. Charles Lindbergh's baby son; that his conviction con-viction was In accordance ac-cordance with the evidence and that his death sentence was legaL Every contention raised by the defense was overruled. In its opinion the court said: "Our conclusion Is that the verdict Is not only not contrary to the weight of the evidence, evi-dence, but one to which the evi dence Inescapably led. . . . From three different and. In the main, unrelated sources the proofs point unerringly to guilt viz : (a) Possession and use of the ransome money. (b) The handwriting of the ran some notes. "(c) The wood used In the con struction of the ladder." Hauptmann's attorneys Immedi ately began preparations for an appeal ap-peal to the Supreme Court of the United States. Their only way is to ask that tribunal for a review of the New Jersey court's action. To prevent the death sentence be ing carried out while such a petition peti-tion was pending in the Supreme court, it would be necessary to have a "stay of execution" Issued by the New Jersey courts or by a Justice of the United States Supreme court. If a review is denied the case will be closed and Hauptmann proba bly will die In the electric chair late In November or early in December GREECE changed back from a republic re-public to a monarchy overnight AMERICAN FEDERATION OF LABOR opened Its annual convention con-vention In Atlantic City with many problems np for discussion. In its report the executive council advocated advo-cated preservation of the national Constitution without amendment for the present, as best for Indus. trial recovery. It said: "That some control must be exerted over the former system of lalssez falre can not be denied. "The experiment," the report add ed (NRA), "which has been con eluded, has helped to point the way to the goal which we must seek. How Is congress to acquire that control over the Industry and trade of our country which will make possible the necessary reforms? "Until exhaustive studies have been made with respect to attaining attain-ing this great objective, under our present Constitution, we cannot rec ommend Just what steps should be taken in connection with this par tlcular problem." The report urged vigorous action to drive Reds out of the federation, and recommend the continuation of a strict labor boycott on German goods and services until the Nazis gave "adequate recognition and pro tection to the rights of minority groups." The federation's determination to keep out the Communists was em phasized by Its action in refusing to seat E. M. Curry, president of the International Foundry Workers' union, because he was a Commtt nlst candidate for congress in Michigan three years ago. Death Car's Leap By FLOYD GIBBONS Famous Headline Hunter. AWHILE back, I began to wonder, what with all the automobiles auto-mobiles there are and all the boys and girls there are to go adventuring in them, why we didn't hear more stories in which autos and motorists played a part. Well, sir, I started yelling for automobile stories, and pretty soon I found some. I've heard three or four good ones so far, and I'm looking forward to finding more. ' And, Incidentally, one of the most stirring gas-buggy yarns Pve read in a long time came to me the other day from Charles A. Baker. I hope you all have plenty of adventures while out riding In the old family flivver, but I hope, too, that you never get into a spot like this one that Charley Baker Is going to tell ns about now. Out in Phoenix, Arizona, about seven years ago, a bunch of young people got together and decided it would be a good Idea to go out in the desert and have a wiener roast --- They rounded up some food, a phonograph and one or two ukuleles, piled into two cart and drove off Into the night Charley Baker was one of the young people In that crowd. ne was jammed Into a coupe with three other people Rita, Suzanne and Ben. Ben owned the coupe and was driving. Close Quarters But Not Like It Was Going to Be. It was s pretty tight fit four people In a coupe but two of . them were gals, so nobody minded the cramped quarters. If they'd had any idea how much closer those quarters were going to be In a few hours, thought, they might not have been so satisfied with them. They drove out to Crazy Man's Castle, a spot where someone had started to build a house out on the desert, got as far as laying the concrete floor and then quit It made a swell place to dance if you brought your own music, and the whole crowd had a time of It. Then, as the evening wore on, and it got to be way past bed-time they climbed back into the cars and started back toward town again. They were driving along at a good clip, with Ben still at the wheel flUITE without ceremony, Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes and the eight assocate justices of the Supreme Court of the United States took possession posses-sion of their new ten million dollar home which on the outside It resembles a Corinthian temple. tem-ple.

Up ahead of them was a curve in the road. Charley knew it was there, and It seemed to him that they must be pretty close to It. Ben, though, either didn't know It was there, or didn't realize how fast he was going. He was almost on It and moving along too fast for comfort when Charley yelled to him to watch out for that turn. Ben saw It at the same time Charley yelled. He jammed on the brakes and the car began to skid. It turned sideways, hurdled the low, protecting concrete ridge be tween the road and the canal, and fell, top downward, into six feet of water. . Joy-Ride Car Becomes Death Trap. Four people, crowded into a small coupe, turned heads downward In six feet of water. Can you Imagine a more horrible sensation, boys and girls? Well- neither can Charley Baker. , Water was rushing In from a hundred small openings about the body of the car. The windows were closed, but that didn't stop it from coming in through the ventilators, the floor boards and through the nar-row nar-row slit between the windshield and the cowl. In 15 seconds there was a foot of water in the car, and that was in creasing rapidly every moment. Something had to be done within the next half minute, or they would all be drowned like rats In a trap. One of the girls was screaming. The other, stunned by the gravity of the situation, huddled silently In the water in the bottom of the car. Charley and Ben, yelling at one another over the first girl's screams, decided on a course of action. Their Lives Depend on Speedy Action. They would roll the windows open at the same time, and as the water ir tne neutrality proclaimed ry Kit- v -- -y u. m.uu ju,.m. h , ke d,ve f ,t drafrftIng tne glrls witn them- 17.

George Kondylis, the army officers de manded that Premier Tsaldarls immediately im-mediately proclaim restoration of the monarchy. He refused and resigned, re-signed, and a new government with Kondylis as premier took hold. This former minister of war then forced out President Zalmls, abolished the republican constitution, decreed the restoration, and was named regent by the national assembly pending the return of King George II, who was called back from exile. Though the change of form of government thus seemed completed, the assem bly directed that a plebiscite on the question be held November 3, and In London the Greek king's equerry said Georse would await the result of this vote.

Then Charley counted, one two- three, and both lads fell to work on the little crank handles that raised the windows. Water began surging in, filling the car as the windows went up. The two boys took a fast breath and cranked on. The windows were open at last the two lads were struggling through them. It was hard enough to get out alone without having to drag a girl along with you. Charley thought his lungs would hurst before he got Rita, out and Ben, who was having trouble getting through under the steering wheel, was having an even harder time with Suzanne.
