Senate majority lead er Robinson declared that Massachus etss’ Senator Walsh, ranking mem ber of the navy committee, is Tram mell’s logical successor.

WEEK DAYS PAY NO MORE TRANSRADIO PRESS ENGLAND BACKS WATER ON FIRM AFRICAN POLICY PRIME MINISTER BALDWIN SAYS GOVERNMENT TO WITHHOLD JUDGMENT GENEVA, May 13 (TP). The fear that Italy’s empty chair a’t th© League of Nations council table will ♦ lever be filled again grew stronger today. League diplomats, recovering from the startling speed with which the Italian league delega tion packed up and went home, are grouped »i two schools, of thought on the Italian situation. One group, a minority, be lieves that Premier Mussolini al ready has definitely decided to sever connecting with Geneva. The league’s refusal to recog nize Italian claims of Ethiopian annexation and the council’s vote to continue anti-Italian sanctions, this group holds, proved the steps which influ enced Mussolini’s final decision to quit the league. Another group, which includes lead ers of the Geneva Peace Congress, be lieves that the Italian walkout was staged mainly as warning. With the Ethiopian question put off until Jlme 15, the second group maintains, Mus solini ordered the drastic withdrawal of his delegation to show the world that the League would lose Italy un less his demands were met. Even if this second theory is right, Italy’s return to the council table Is still doubtful. 4 There appears little Hkeihood of the League stand chang ing towards Italy within the next month, unless Mussolini abruptly switches his Ethiopian policies. Such a drastic change is labelled ft- virtual - impossibility in view of the Black Shirt dictator’s proud announcement to the world of a new Italian empire. France is expected to line up more strongly in favor of the continuation of sanctions after the new leftist gov ernment goes into power within the next few days. With the exception of Chile and Ecuador—which never have been leaders in League negotia tion—none of the League, powers have indicated that a threat of Italy’s withdrawal from the League will force abandonment of Ethiopia’s cause. . Geneva observers admitted that they were surprised by the united front shown by League nations on Ethiopia’s behalf. When Addis Ababa fell, a big percentage of League ex perts believed that the council's san ctions campaign against Italy would collapse. LONDON, May 13 (TP)—Prime Minister Baldwin told the House of Commons today that the British gov eminent will withhold judgment on Italy’s annexation of Ethiopia. The Prime Minister said that the decree of annexation had been ac cepted from the Italian ambassador under full reservations. The document will be submitted to Foreign Secre tary Eden when he returns from Gen eva, Baldwin said. At that point Laborite Frederick Cocks jumped w his feet. The Laborite shouted: “And I hope Eden tears it up.” COACH OUSTED, STUDENTS RIOT NAPERVILLE, 111,, May 13 (TP)-« Rioting students of North Central col lege hurled chairs and books through class room windows today in a dem onstration against the firing of their football coach - Some of the schools’ 500 students marched out of their classes when Coach Walter Nolte was dismissed, lhe college board complained that Nolte preached too much football and ;oo little religion at chapel service*.
