Mussolini Reveals Ho Signs of New Peace Proposal TOWN HALT COPENHAGEN ft i fen '2ftftv -fch uu)'fr Mi-v-'J "DENMARK I7AND OF CHARM" GENEVA, Jan 20 (A P) The League of Nations Council met in a long-awaited session today, but made no move to settle the Italo-Ethiopian war.

Despite a new protest from Ethiopia, the Council rejected a plea from Emperor Haile Selassie to send a commission of inquiry to the war zone and to give the Empire financial aid. In its note Ethiopia said: "Ethiopia is learning the cruel lesson that small peoples must rely chiefly upon themselves to defend their independence and integrity." The impression prevailed tonight that the Council, dismayed at the collapse of previous peace efforts under its auspices, now awaits for Mussolini to make a move. Baron Pompeo Aloisi, the Italian delegate attended the Council session, but was silent. Premier Mussolini disclosed no signs of coming forward with a new peace proposal. One Italian said "Italy herself By COL.

With motion pictures and color slides Col Holly-day introduces the attractions of Denmark to American audiences. A former U. S.

military attache to the Legations of Latvia and Lithuania, and a frequent traveler in Denmark, Col Holly-day presents a clear, comprehensive and entertaining picture of this land of many delights, still but little known even to many veteran travelers. Copenhagen, the "Paris of the North," and the famed Danish Lake Country are only two of many high spots in this unusual travelogue. Medical and nursing care to people in their homes during the weekend blizzard was not interrupted, according to reports yesterday by the Community Federation of Boston. The district doctors of the Boston Dispensary and the Massachusetts Memorial Hospitals and the visiting nurses of the Community Health Association made their usual rounds through streets and sidewalks blocked with snow. The 13 district offices of the Com- i munity Health Association were open Sunday as usual, and nurses made more than 100 visits to sick people.

They were called to help five new babies into the world. During 1935 Community Health Association nurses made 274,729 visits; Boston Dispensary doctors made 31.527 visits to homes; Massachusetts Memorial Hospitals' doctors made 11,058 visits. All three organizations depend for support on the 1936 Community Fund Campaign for Human Needs. BOSTON GEOBE TRAVEL LECTURE Admission is 50c. plus tax, 5 cents.

NEXT SUNDAY EVENING at 8:15 Behind War Cables By HENRY W. HARRIS The last illness of King George of England overshadowed affairs in the League Council, which met yesterday to take tip the question of an oil embargo on Italy. All the Council could do wai mark time.

What the crowning of the Prince of Wales will mean it ia impossible to say. The Prince is easily the most popular man in England, and the fact that he has disliked the idea of being King hag not hurt him with the public. Where King George had found himself increasingly forced into the position of a spare wheel of the Tory party, the 'Prince of Wales has more and more given the impression that he is pro-Labor. Seven years ago, when Ramsay MacDonald was leading tbe Labor party in a general election, the Prince wired him "Good luck." This may mean everything and it may mean nothing. It would seem that the new King is a man who appreciates the necessity of keeping the Crown close to the people.

The League Council rejected an Ethiopian request for an inquiry on which to base a peace settlement. The black country's appeal is very interesting, as it takes the words out of the mouth of Anthony Eden, British Foreign Minister, from his address to his constituents last Friday. "If the League considers the aggressor must not be allowed to ucceed," says the statement, "should not members of the League, acting in concert, show their force in such a way as to demonstrate that aggression does not pay." Dispatches say that the League is now waiting a peace offer from Mussolini. It is a fair guess that the gap between British and Italian public opinion is so great that no compromise can be made which will not appear to be an obvious betrayal of the League.

Emperor Haile Selassie, in a dolo rously worded plea, asked for new economic sanctions against Italy and for funds. The committee of 13 which is the Council without Italy and Ethiopia turned down his financial request on the ground that the League con vention providing for financial aid for the victim of aggression has never cone into force. It characterized as "inopportune" the Negus' request for a commission of inquiry.

Ethiopia's request for stronger sanctions was turned over to the committee of 18, which meets Wednesday to discuss the general sanctions situation. This group was created to handle all Leaders believe the committee will appoint experts to determine the effect of existing sanctions and whether a boycott of oil, coal, iron and steel could hasten the end of the war.

Jan 20 (A P) The holy cities of Aksum and Makale, for weeks In the hands of Italian invaders, were said by high Government sources today to be i practically ringed with thousands of Ethiopian warriors.

While a formal communique claimed many rebels had been slain, and "half of them" taken prisoner in the far northwestern province of Gojjam, unconfirmed reports to the capital said Aksum already had been partly reoccupied. The city is the supposed shrine of the true Ark of the Covenant and the Ten Commandments, which apparently never have been seen by mortal eyes. It stretches through the northern mountains for several miles. Makale was the last northern town of importance captured by the Italians. Ras Ayale, one of Emperor Haile Selassie's northern chieftains, was reported only 30 miles from Aksum a month ago, but informed Ethiopians said he could not be permitted the honor of entering the Holy City because he once was a bandit.

The Gojjam communique said the rebels in that province, whose activities have been blamed on Italian agitation, had been defeated in a battle near Debra Markos. Their leader, Dedjazmatch Gasasa, escaped with two servants, the announce ment added. Forced to delay his trip for an hour because an Italian plane was overhead, Everett Andrews Colson, the Negus' American adviser, reach-ad here by plane from Dessye. He conferred with Selassie for what was believed to be the last time prior to the Emperor's departure for the northern front. Today's communique also claimed that Korem, situated at the end of one of the motor roads north of Dessye which the Emporer is expected to take on his trip to the front, had been bombed last Thursday.

Saturday and Sunday, with four civilians killed and seven wounded. The Italians now are using new bombs, all of which are exploding with terrible effect." said the communique. A. F. OF BODY DEBATES INDUSTRIAL UNION ISSUE MIAMI, Fla.

ITALIAN LINO BRITAIN LISTS SITES OF HOSPITAL UNITS Gives Italy Information Lest Tbey Be Bombed LONDON, Jan 20 (A P) Great Britain, "in order that there may be no misunderstanding," has told 1 Italy the exact location of English Red Cross units in Ethiopia, it was learned today.

An authoritative source disclosed that Maurice Ingram, British charge d'affaires in Rome, called upon Ful-vio Suvich, Italian Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs, Saturday and directed his attention to the location of British units. These reached Dessye several days ago. Ingram said the information was given "in the light of recent occurrences." By this he was understood to refer to the bombings of Swedish and other Red Cross units and hos pitals in the war area. Simultaneously, a reliable source reported that Great Britain is con centrating large military and naval lorces in the Egyptian area. This source said nearly half the regular British combat army has moved into Egypt, which borders upon the Italian-owned colony of Libya and that there are 157 warships in the area and between 700 and 800 military airplanes.

The French fleet also has begun maneuvers in Mediterranean waters.

A material break of quotations at Liverpool forced Chicago May wheat contracts down temporarily to below $1 a busheL Exceptional smallness of speculative trading, together with lack of any energetic overseas demand, as well as continued disappointing volume of domestic flour business, had a distinct bearish influence.

Wheat closed easy, unchanged to lower compared with Saturday's finish. May Corn 14 down, May 60Vba; "Oats Vi. off, and provisions varying from 10 cents setback to 10 cents advance.

Corn and oats were bearish influenced by reports that cold weather is likely to improve conditioning of corn. Provisions averaged higher, responsive to hog prices.

SILVER PRICE LOSES FIVE CENTS AN OUNCE IN 3 DAYS NEW YORK. Jan 20 (A P) World silver prices continued highly unsettled today in the two principal centers. Imoorted metal for domestic use dropped one cent in New York to 444 cents a fine ounce, the lowest since June 5, 1934, despite a rise of 3-16 of a penny in London to 19 3-16 standard ouEpe, equivalent to 42.82 cents in- New York. Further lowering of the United States Treasury's "hid was believed responsible for the French decline here, while London dispatches said the slight increase was due primarily to a virtual cessation of selling in that market.

At present levels, a full five cents an ounce has been clipped from the world price in New York within three trading days. SILK MARKET NEW YORK.
