ROME.— () —Captain Anthony Eden, crossing the :fitl‘Oflg‘ will of Premier Benito Mussoclini, pressed today for an avowal of Italy's in tentions toward Ethiopia. Great Britain’s special envoy and Geoffrey Thompson, British expert on African affairs, conferred with Fulvio Suvich, Ttalian undersecre tary for foreign affairs, before an other interview with Il Duce him self. British circles said the prelimi nary conference was called to de termine to what extent Captain Eden might question Mussolini on his FEast African policies. 11 Duce Impatient Ttalian official circles described 11 Duce as impatient at the idea of stating Tltaly’s already well-de fined viewpoints on the East Afri can controversy, but it was agreed that some main points of Italian policy might be brought sharply to the foreground. These were: 1. Italy will not consider any “patched-up” settlement of her differences with Ethiopia, such as territorial concessions. 2. Ttaly will be satisfied with nothing less than a protectorate ‘over Ethiopia, backed by Italy’s strong military organization, and Ethiopia’s expulsion from the Lea gue of Nations on the ground that she has violated the principles of membership. Captain Eden’s purpose in bring ing the Ethiopian question into his Rome conversatons was described by British eircles as an attempt to persuade Italy to honor Teague ef forts to settle the berder dispute.

So far as knewn, none has been received as yet by the farmers. Under the Bankhead act a farmer must present an exemption certifi cate at the gin showing his staple is tax free before he may sell his product. Dependent upon the sale of the first bale to secure money for har vesting the remainder of the crop, small producers last year register ed vigorous protests. The ginning season in south Georgia gets un der way in August and the certifi cates were not recetved last ‘'year until Sepilember. Protest’s May Help I The protests led to expectations that certificates would be in the hands of farmers earlier this year if the Bankhead act was extended. The extension was ordered a few weeks ago. " The law says 10,400,000 bales may be produced in one year. Allotments are based on the average production over a five year period. Allotménts made for the 1934 crop were not used this year because a more equitable distribu tion was desired. T.ast year the time between pass age of the Bankhead act and har vesting was too close to permit a lot of figuring and for that reason every farmer in each county was (Continued On Page Seven) L BRITONS TIE FOR QUALIFYING TITLE MacDonald Smith in Sec ond Place; Two Helens Win in Tennis Meet By GAYLE TALBOT Associated Press Sports Writer.
