League Officials Report
Belgium Appeal Along
. ’
Line of France's
League Council Gathering
Called For Friday to
| Discuss Question
By JOSEPH E. SHARKEY
Associated Press Foreign Staff.
GENEVA.—(£)—Belgium joined
France in an appeal to the League
of Nations council today against
Germany's violation of the Lo
carno pact by military occupation
of the Rhineland, bordering on
both France and Belgium.
League officials said the Belgian
appeal, which arrived today, was
along the same lines as that from
France last night, calling for a
council session as soon as possi
ble to deal with the crisis.
A council session was called
for Friday, and officials said Ger
many and Belgium, as parties to
the dispute, would be invited to
take seats about the council table
when the accusation against Ger
many was examined. :
Double-Barreled Crisis
Armies on the move on two
continents brought the League
face to face with a double-bar
reled crisis which Geneva sources
considered as threatening gravely
the peace of the world and the
exista_.ne of the League.
Tte Italian armies which invad
ed Ethiopia five months ago were
still theve, despite the -~ League
condemnation, despite sanctions
and despite the armed resistance
of the Bthiopians.
The German troops which
maiched into the Rhineland—de
militarized by the Locarne pact
and the Versailles treaty — also
were still there, and their pres
ence caused sudden troop move
ments in Belgium and France.
Out of all this complexity of
military menace, Geneva sources
[pointed out, it was the League's
task to find a solution spélling
| peace.
A beginning was made on the
East African front, Emperor
Haile Selassie, after five months
¢? resistance to the Italian invas
ifon, had telegraphed that he was
willing to talk peace.

“American education” for Ameri

the “alarming headlines” of Sun

the Legion appeared to have been
“more far-sighted” than many
other organizations.
