STEWART Washington, Oct. 2.—• Ostensibly President Roosevelt took Secretary of the Interior Ickes and Relief Admin istrator Hopkins with him 0 n his west ern trip to consult with, in connec tion with conditions revealed during the party’s trip across the continent. Washington talk is to the effect that in reality he took them because he was afraid to leave them together in the capital, unrestrained by his in fluence, t 0 fight their multiplicity of differences of opinion out “a l’out rance.” HOW WILL CATS JUMP?

(Central Press) British F eel Italy Nears Bankruptcy And Italy Owes Bri tain Three Billion Dollars; England Is In Tight Spot By LESLIE EICHEL New York, Oct. 2.—The British be lieve that Italy is close to bank ruptcy. That may prevent a war, but it is no cause for British rejoicing. Italy owes the British government three billion, 55 millions of dollars. Then there are millions in private credit. The British are between the devil and the deep blue sea. They do not desire Italy to intrude farther into Africa, for that would mean stepping on British toes in Egypt. And if trade sanctions are applied, the re. percussion will be strongest in Eng land, whose trade and credit inter twine the world and are of delicate texture. The entire situation stems from the Versailles peace treaty, which was not a treaty of peace but an instru ment of revenge. The defeated na tions were treatde as prisoners of war and stripped to the bone. True, Italy was on the victorious side, but France and Great Brtiain and the new states they created left little for Italy. The Versailles treaty sowed fanatic hate—and the fearful crop has ripen ed to harvest. CANCTIONS As to sanctions, a Britisher, a So (Contlnued on Page Three.) Selassie Protests Anew With League.

He re peated that there had been cas ualties. (Previous reports from Addis Ababa said there were no Ethiopian troops in the Mussa Ali vicinity.) The newspaper said three advanc ing columns of Italians numbering 25,000 men battled with irregular Danakil tribal warriors, but that they had not yet engaged Ethiopian re gulars. WILL BEAR SANCTIONS WITH GREAT DISCIPLINE Mussolini told his millions of fer vent followers that “a solemn hour is about to break in history.” He made this declaration to the multitudes of Italians assembled In all their cities and villages—rank up on rank —around loud speakers which conveyed their leader’s words to tho expectant throngs. (A few hours before 11 Duce began his speech Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia protested to the League of Nations that Italian troops already had crossed his frontiers.)
