League of Nations council session ^Wednesday on the Italo-Bthiopian frisis, failed yesterday, to. patch - up their differences over the^^coidro- versy. .1 With Eden determined to **uphold the League of Nations," Laval remind ed him that. France is equally deter mined to avoid sanctions and declines to concur in Ekten's report on the fail ure of tri-power peace' conversations at Paris. Other dev^pments in/the Ethiopian situation were: Addis Ababa — ^ve thousand Ethi opian regular troops left Han^ for a field bMs and Emperor Haile Selas sie direct^ the firs't distribution of gas ma^ to his subjects after re jecting British, French and Italian representations over his concession to American intejteeta. Rome—The Italian press considered the Ethiopian concession final evi dence of Italy’s duty to turn down any, compromise in its dispute with Ethi opia. The government denied officially reports that Italian troops had en- tered Ethiopia. London—Unofficial reports said the British government ask^ the United States government for details of the connections of Francis M. Rickett, British promoter who negotiated the concession, which informed sources said tonight might react against Ethi opia. , Geneva — League officials said the council deliberations beginning Wed nesday might take far more time than gnerally expected, with lengthy delib erations anticipate.

"The Paper^srybody Reeds*' Fail To Agf^ > Paris, Sept. 2.—Premier Pierre La val of France and Britain’s Anthony Eden tried' and failed today to close the gap between British insistence up on "upholding the League of Nations" in the Italo-Ethiepian situation and France’s willingness to consider Italy’s East African movement a /colonial operation." • . Laval refused to concur in Eden’s version of the. three power conference conclusions Which the British minister for League of Nations affairs brought from Londan today and intended to present to the league council. Instead he reminded Eden that France is determined to avoid sanc tions (or threats of league pressure upon Italy) and to retain Jhe friend ship of Italy. > • * A British spokesman, who suppKed this information, added that Lavah in refusing to sign Eden’s report, which he called "to strong," indicated he would make a separate report. He also said that Eden and Laval would make a further effort to get gether^n a Geneva-bound train/to night.

The tribesmen, never having seen gas masks before, examined them with grat incredulity, and when mask- equipped soldiers appeared in the streets, they caused more fear than curiosity I To the accompaniment of beating drums and sounding trumpets, tpwn criers ahnounoed that the government had called off a mimic air rtm, fear- ii|g the natives might mi^ake it for a real riii<L The emp^r, however, made no proclamatii^ (The Reuters corrMpoodent at Bire- dawm, Ethiopia,^smd he heard an un confirmed rqpdrt that an advance guard of l^cioo Italian troops, with 1,R)0 Bi^ive troops, crossed the Eihi- rontier-west of Assab.
