Even more spectacular has been the jump in shares of British ship- yards, recently down and out, now all set to build warboats. The disgusted 'Daily Herald', after first severely warning its Labor readers that they will probably lose their shirts if they jump into the market now, tantaliz.. ingly explained that a nest egg of Mio cam Mari, Lascio a lei immaginare, sentirsi nella propria tetra, sentirsi libero dal- le proprie azioni, respirare quell'arigr 1mieamentt italiana, ammirare quei panorami, quelle bellezze proprie no. stre, decantate dalle piu' grandi men- talita' internazionali.

This, if anything, increased the boom, and London Stock Exchange gigolos--the well-bom Young Eng- lishmen with wealthy women friends who get 5% commission on orders they put in the way of regular bro.. kers--were chided by the financial editor of Lord Beaverbrook's patriotic 'Daily Express'. Wrote he: "r hear that the 'half commission boys' in the West End are speculating in aircraft shares on behalf of their clients, the ladies. This is always a bad sign."

Urged to dampen this specu- lative rise by promising that His Majesty's Government will by law curtail armorers' profits, Prime Mi... nister Stanley Baldwin said: "Great as the power of government is, I am in"; Le ean't control the speculator, and it would do no good to give him 2iiiilarnd2i-uroreirgn Policy "BAO SIGN" ENTUSIASTO DELLA NUOVA ITALIA IL BOLL1iyPNN0 1TAL0UJANAD1WE I The grand total is $35,000,000 spent Eduring the past seven months for Pspecia1 measures" undertaken by 'Viscount Monsell, First Lord of the Admiralty, War Secretary Alfred Duff Cooper and Air Secretary Vis- count Swinton solely because of (Eden Diplomacy."

Umberto Invidiata The boldest stroke of British policy since the War is the "Eden Diploma- ey" of His Majesty's Government in filling the seas around Italy with warboats and naval aircraft. This cramming of weapons into the Me.. diterranean had the effect of making the League of Nations loom big with new prestige because at Geneva hand- some young Anthony Eden gave the' impression that if only a few more chips were knocked off the League's shoulder by Italy then Britain would fight. Last week the Mediterranean was still full of British warboats when the House of Commons was startled to learn that the cost of such "Eden Diplomacy" is $160,000 per day. non so la data, forse il 15 o il 18, ad ogni modo lo informer6 in proposibo. Se ne renderanno conto i biondi pa- ladini dei negri e se me pentiranno per aver ostacolato, per quanto i 1oro 0. stacoli che si sono frapposti ai no- stri disegni non ci hanno per niente impressionato. E' riuscito solo a pro- vocare lo sdegno di noi italiani e far- ei accorrere piu' numerosi ad ingros- sare le imponenti falangi dei volonta... ri di guerra." "Ad Asmara i negozianti si stanno arricchendo e non esagero se ti con.. fesso che qualeuno si fa milionario". In excited political circles talk was veering around from the urgent rw. mors a fortnight ago that "Bumbler Baldwin" could not much longer re- main Prime Minister, to the opposite notion that the Arms Boom is creat. ing an elated situation in which, no matter what he does or says, he will be as popular as Herbert Hoover was in 1928. ' $2,500 invested one year ago in three ship-building and two aircraft stocks would today have become a tidy little fortune of $25,500.

At a time when it is absolutely vital that we should have at the Foreign Office a. Minister whose coolness and diseretL on-qualities which Mr. Eden's gre- atest admirers will not claim for him ---go hand in hand with detachment, experience and a profound knowledge of the mind and temper of his own and other nations, is Mr. Eden the man for the job?" "We have seen our ancient friend- ship and our valuable trade with Ita.. 1y disappear, never to return. Who knows what else W. Eden is up to? Who knows what meddlesome trouble Public Liability No. 1 is hatching in the seclusion of the Foreign Office? What may he not be saying to this Ambassador or that? What folly or danger is there into which the egocen- tricity of a somewhat superior person with no discretion and a sharp tongue cannot plunge us? "This bribing of other nations to blockade Italy economically in the name of the League of Nations is a. gross and unprecedented breach of the laws of neutrality," continued London's 'Evening News'. "The Gar.. den of Eden, as everybody knows, was ruined by a snake. The saactioneers' Eden, it would appear, is to be saved by a pig-and a Yugoslavian pig at MATTER FOR INDIFFERENCE. _ Meanwhile at the Foreign Office last' week Anthony Eden faced the start-i ling fact that Benito Mussolini had somehow obtained and made public in Rome a confidential report to the British Government on the Ethiopian situation made last June by six ex- pert British civil servants: two from the Foreign Office and one each from the Admiralty, Air Ministry, War and Dominions Offices. These experts were chairmanned by Sir John MU.. fey and the official character of the document was so self-evident that the British Foreign Office. was eonstra.. timed to admit its genuineness, altho- iugh deprecating it as "old". "PUBLIC LIABILITY No. L" Me- anwhile in several London newsor. gans deep rumblings in regard to Anthony Eden had begun. The In.. dependent Conservative 'E v e n i n g News' called him roundly "PUBLIC LIABILITY NO. I" and remarked that His Majesty's Government are "bribing" the Government of Yugo- slavia to "pretend" to support Sane- tions by more than doubling the num,. ber of Yugoslav pigs permitted under British quota restrictions to be sold in the United Kingdom weekly. 1y similar in character and portent to those before 1914," he went on to point the Conservative moral that "whichever course events may take, one element which appears essential for every course is that Great Britain: must be shrong". 1 As for Sanctions, Mr. Eden expls. ined, "there has com? to be attached to oil sanctions in certain quarters something of a symbolic quar1ty.'... To my mind oil is a sanction like any other." P The gist of the report by Sir John Maffey & experts was that absolutely no occasion would exist for filling the Mediterranean with British forces, even in the event of successful com quest by Italy of Ethiopia. In the dry and dispassionate words of Sir John Maffey & Experts: "From the viewpoint of imperial defense an in.. dependent Ethiopia is preferable to an Italian Ethiopia but the threat to British interests seems very remote and would become real only in the event of war between Britain and Ita- 1y, which is an eventuality that pre- sently seems very improbable. ague Covenant and asked His Majes ty's Government how they' account for their "unilateral action" which Italy protests. P.'s to ask him whether His Majesty's Government are in earnest about so- oner or later screwing up the League of Nations to the point of hurling re- ally drastic Sanctions against Italy. In his first formal speech to the House of Commons since he became Foreign Secretary, Mr. Eden this week left this point unsettled but he gave most of his time to an ingrati- ating sales talk for the League of Nations. Exclaiming sorrowfully that "eighteen years after the war to end war, we find ourselves confron- ted with the same problems dreadful- Replied the British Foreign Office last week to Ambassador Dino Gran- di: "Mr. .Eden has the honor to in. form His Excellency that. . . . . . His Majesty's Government. . . . do not feel that any useful purpose would be ser- ved by prolonging the correspondence on the subject." This indication that Mr. Eden fa, vors maintaining the tension between Britain and Italy spurred Labor M.

Speaking in a general sense, as far as local British interests are concer. ned, it is a matter of indifference whether Ethiopia remains independ. ent or is absorbed by Italy. . . . JOHN-. Non darti pensiero: la So.. cieta' delle Nazioni legalizza tutti i miei contratti. "By (the Treaty of 1906) His Ma- jesty's Government recognized almost the whole of Ethiopia as pertaining to the Italian sphere of influenee." REAL REASONS? Rome's sensa.. tional news break of the Maffey Itts port had the effect of sharpening in Landon the question of why Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin and his National Government ever embarked on a policy which is costing millions for "a matter of indifference." A double hypothesis considered widely in London to fit the facts last week was: 1) To create a British Bea- re which would enable the Conserva.. tive Party to win the general elets. tion, Party Boss Baldwin simply til.. led the Mediterranean with warboats; 2) The Mediterranean is being kept full of warboats to perpetuate the scare at least until the Chancellor of the Exchequer gets through the House of Commons the great pro- gram of $1,500,000,000 for increas- ing British armaments which last week had London's stock market in the flood tide of a Munitions Boom. Challenged again and again to give a frank accounting of the real reasons for "Eden Diplomacy," His Majesty's Government remained quietly snug this week in the position that, after all, they won the election. After all, too, the honest English workman, is eager for a job, even if his new work is on a $1,500,000,000 order for u]. timate War. opia is Lake Tana and the Nile Basin. These represent also an interest of Egypt, which His Maiesty's Govern. ment are bound to protect. In the event that Ethiopia should disappear as an independent State, His Maies- ty's Government should seek to SeC11- re territorial control over Lake Tana and an adequate corridor joining this lake to the Sudan. . ..
