Another Ethiopian Effort

(By the Associated Press)
Oil made more slippery the path
way to Italo-Ethiopian peace Sat
urday.
A move to deny Italy this com-
‘modity, vital for warfare, raised
‘unofficially these questions: will
Italy quit the League if an oil em
bargo ig applied?; will Europe go
to war again?
Paris heard unofficially that Pre
mier Mussolini warned France an
ooil embargo would mezn war. The
Paris newspaper L’Oeuvre said this
message was given to Premier La
val Friday by Vittorio Cerruti, the
Italian ambassador.
A League committee of 18 meets
this week to consider adding oil,
coal, jron and steel to the list of
products noyw_barred to warring
fascism. Britain’s support of such
an embargo was indicated.
France Fearful
France, fearful of the result, is
believed opposed to adding oil to
the sanctions list.
Fascist officials did not disguise
their concern when infermed that
Secretary Ickes had called upon
American oil exporters not to ship
to Italy.
But in Ethiopia, government offi
cials were jubilant. They said an
ofl embargo owuld be the greatest
economic help nations of the world
could give her,
A spokesman for Il Duce said
it was “premature” to discuss whe

in the face of an 01l embargo. But
there was speculation about it in

Great Britain called the confer

The heavy-set chief of the Uni

There was no doubt in labor cir

was another .step in Lewis’ long

South Atlantic Modern Language
Association To Meet Here Friday
Approximately - 300 members of
the South Atlantic Modern Lan
ugage association will convene at
the University of Georgid next
Friday for. a two-day annual ses
sion.
Prof. Claud Chance, head of the
University romance language de
nartment, and a committee of six
other faculty members arranged
the program. It will be in charge
of Dr. John C. Dawson, of the
University of Alabama, president
of the assoclation.
One featurve of the annual meet
ing will be a dinner, given by the
University, for the association mem -
bers Friday evening. President
Hsrmon W. Caldwell will welcome
tha £o¢ visitors at that time. Dr.
Lsweon will respond.
. *t¢l the dinner the delegates
will be guests of A. D. Robert
son, manager of the Palace thea
ter, at a French movie. The feat
ure, “Poil de Carotte,” from the
rovel by Jean Renard, was produc
ed in France , and it is typical
¥reneh prcduction.
Professor Chance, explaining the
conflict with the President Roose
eveit celebration in Atlanta Fri
doy, said that the Modern Lan~
guare association always meets on
Friday and Saturday following
Thanksgiving. An effort was made
this year to ckance the date, be
cause of the homecoming, but that

Professor Chance also anwounced
The Building And Loan Idea
} Never before, perhaps, has 80
much emphasis been placed upon
the individual home as at present.
Apartmens, flats and penthouses
serve a useful purpose, but modern
life with it congestion, its drive,
its tension and noise, is not con
ducive to an orderly, healthy, on
happy existence, and America is
becoming home conscious.
At a recent meeting of the Uni
ted States Building and Loan
League held in the city of Cincin
nati, where about fifteen hundred
thoughtful citizens from every
part of the country, assem
bled to discuss matters relating to
the Building and Loan idea, this
!thought stood out like the rock of
Gibraltar. E. D. Sledge, a repre
sentative of the local Athens Fed
eral Savings and Loan Association
who attended this meeting, brought
back a word of good cheer and en
couragement for those Who desire
to own their own home.
“National Security Through Indi
‘ vidual Thrift and Home Owner

through all that was said and a
‘| letter from President Roosevelt
assured the convention that the
