Sept 22. -Great Britain officially placed full blame lor her history-making massing of warship and men in the Mediuu-rnneun tonight upon the "violence ol tne campaign against the United Kingdom'' conducted by the Italian prrsa. In a communique Ismcd as the Brit ish cabinet ministers gnt hered for a vital full dress session TueMlny, the foreign office revealed Sir Erie Diummond. the British ambassador to Rome, had made this representation to Benito Mussolini government only liu-t Friday. That was the day bet ore the Italian cabinet rejected the League of Na- i Hons committee's p'-are proposal.

but In language so conciliatory as to leave the door open for further nego- nations Sir Eric, the communique stated. made it plain the Mediterranean ship ana troop movement implied no bk-gresslve intention. In turn, he received similar assiirancw concerning Italian military preparations in the Mediterranean basin from Under-Secretary Tor Foreign Affairs Pnlvio Su-vlch, the announcement added. At the same lime official a.s.Miiances were received here to the el feet that 11 Uuce has not yet slammed the dour on further attempts at conciliation Oil Different UiiOh In Rome official commentators said Italy is determined on a military campaign in Ethiopia, although she is willing to discuss compromise measures on a busts different than that offered by the committee of five. Theso persons took the view that ainiopia can be eliminated as a only by such a campaign.

There was optimism at the reported ass rnn ccs of fc'ir Eric that the I presence of Brit isli wars hips in the I Mediterranean has nothuiK to do with the question of sanctions. Italy's military preparations were pushed ahead with an order designed to convert 30,001) workmen In East Africa into fighting units when the Ethiopian expedition begins, and pro-vislona jor the enrollment of 19 and 20-year-yld youths for preliminary milltiu-y and technical training. More than 000 more blackshlrts sailed for East Africa. Awair Offltlnl Iteplv The committee ol five (retted at Geneva, waiting for an oniciai reply from Romp to the proposals which the cabinet rejected Saturday. Committeemen admittedly were nettled by the manner in which the rejection was announced to the pros before the orliclal answer waa delivered.

Although Italian spokesmen have made it plain further negotiations are possible, persons clone to the peace maneuvers at Geneva doubted whether the committee would ofler Mussolini much more at the expense of Ethiopia. Additional concessions, they said, might brirm a flat rejection from Emperor Haile Selassie. At Arid is Ababa the empernr. however, grew more hopeful at the conciliatory tone of the Italian rejection well as reports of the great British naval display in the Mediterranean. But he strengthened his forces at key positions nevertheless, believing the slackening of the rsiny season might spur Duce to make ft surprise attack.

The Italian minister, Lulgl Vinet-Glgliucci, remained at Addis Ababa and said he "had not thought ot leaving." Foreigners felt thla wa an excellent guarantee against an air raid on the capital. The emperor awaited receipt ot the full text of the league committee a peace plan before formally accepting It. Malta cltlreni peered over miles of barbed wire entanglement at a great array of British fighting ships in the harbor. Preparations went forward to receive three new troop battalions from England, and the burnished muzzJe of two new antiaircraft batteries could ha seen aoove sand bag parapets In the middle ot former polo field.
