and other foreign countries in 1030 when the Bennett Govern- ment took office, and the high tariffs against Canadian produc- ers existing at that time.

Notwithstanding the fact that we grow largely the same products, o. reasonably beneficial trade agreement can and will be nego- tiated by the Bennett Government with the United States, Mr. Myers believed.

Mr. King failed to do this when in office. Worse than that, he gave our Southern neighbours "a spiteful slap in the face" with‘ the‘ Dunning Budget, the highest tar- iff structure ever imposed by a l‘ " Gcve. ‘, which was of no business value.

“Mr. King decried the Ottawa Agreements in Charlottetown. Did he tell you what he would substi- tutc in their place? Ho did not?”

The New Zealand u; ment was dealt with and contrasted favor- ablywith the agreement negotiat- ed with that country by Mr. King‘ which let New Zealand butter en- ter Canada at i cent a pound duty and resulted in hlmost the ruin of the f‘ ‘" dairy industry.

Tho action of the Bennett Gov- ernment in bonusing cheese pro- ductlon and assisting in the move- ment overseas of surplus Canadian butta- was explained.

West Indies 'I‘r-ldc

Mr. Myers scored the King Government for failing to in- clude Cuba in the trade agreement it negotiated with the other West Indies Islands in 102d.

The Conservative dumping duty was not imposed against Cuban sugar alone; it was imposed ag- ainst all countrics That had no-

of our potatoes from Cuba. The case against the King Government is as clear as day and our Liberal friends know it," Mr. Myers de- ciared.

He then dealt effectively with Liberal criticism regarding “blank cheque" legislation. While the un- employment relief bill this year throughout Canada will probably be less than ha’! of what it "was last year, nevertheless no one knows definitely what the amount will bound the y amount that can be estimated i is "a sum sufficient." _

"We know there have been ab- uses under thecapitalist system. but Mrzlennett was the first men to stand up to the big inter- czts and demand a better deal for the poorer classes," Mr. Myers continued, pointing out that it was Bennett. .not Stevens, who had establishment of the Price Spreafl Commission.

(By James A. Mills, Associ- ated Press Foreign Staff)

ADDIS .ABABA, Oct. 8— E m p e r o r Haile Selassie, heartened by the prospect of League of Nations sanctions against Italy, urged all Ethi- opians to evacuate the Ital- ian colony of Eritrea tonight and told his envoy to Rome to ask for his passports.

The Negus was represent- ed by his aides as believing major sanctions will break down ltaly’s defiance while the armies of Il Duce are halted by the rock-ribbed mountain citadels of Ethi- opia, which no invader yet has penetrated.

He was confident, too, of the unbroken morale of his own savage warriors, report- ed massed by the thousands in the mountains south of the Italian lines in northern Ethiopia. .

The Errrperor ordered Nag- adras Yesus, his Minister to. Rome, i0 ask for his pass- ports; told the Ethiopian Consul at Asmara, Eritrea, to withdraw, and asked all Ethiopians to leave Eritrea.

Handed Passport

(The League of Nations also was informed in an Ethiopian note that. Luigi Vinci-Gigliuci, Italian Minister to Addis Ababa, had been handed his passport).

Then Selassie proclaimed that since all Italians were leaving his nation, the remaining Europeans must be considered friends and treated nccordingly- -

As for peace, the Emperor was asked if he would accept French mediation to settle his dispute with Italy. His answer was "no‘.’

Lights were ordered extinguish- ed nightly in Addis Ababa as the Emperor took precautions against air raids. Inhabitants were ordered to draw their curtains, evacuate the Streets. and to refrain from using flashlights. Traffic was ord- cred suspended after dark.

Calmly, the Emperor waited the decision c! the league Assembly on sanctions. He was fortif ed by the Councils action in ind eating Italy as a vlolater of the Coven- ant.

Oct. 8.-Further diplo- matic exchanges between Britain and Fiance will probably take place, it was learned authoritatively ro- night, following the reply from Paris to a government note. This note sought to know ii Britain could count on French assistance, in the event of an isolated attack upon her while preparing for imposition of sanctions. Apparently the reply was not so , clearcut as the foreign office would , have liked, as it was not strictly 1 linked to the possible early contin- gency which Britain had ifs mind. The French answer said France ’ was ready to assist Britain in ouch iacasebyiandseaandairprovid-

Begin Work On Sanctions

(By Wade Werner, Assmiated Press Foreign Staff) I

GENEVA, Oct. 8-A League “gen- eral staff" for encircling Italy with economic pressure was already in- formally in action tonight on the eve of a vital meeting of the As- sembly to discuss sanctions. Technical experts who may help the staff in its complicated and huge task already are beginning to arrive and held a conference on some problems involved in sanc- tions.

Although not yet officially con- stituted, it was learned the "general staff" will include in its member- ship all members of the Council except Italy. This is a total of l3 countries. Great Britain and France among them.‘

A basis for the application of sanctions, League officials said, probably will be found in the report of experts appointed to consider what measures of restraint could be imposed ‘upon countries endan- gering peace through treaty viola- tion.

The committee reported muni- tions and products required for the manufacture of munitions-could be shut off from the offending coun- try. To bring about financial pressure, the committee suggested a. ban by member nations on the opening of credits in favor of the country to be punished; a ban on the public

issue of loans abroad; and short term credit operations. Among proble being discussed

by experts was whether application of sanctions automatically cancels all tra e treaties which League states ave with Italy.

The "General Staff." or coordin-

ation committee, m be created by the Assembly, was not expected to report back with a definite plan of ctions before next Monday. Be- tween now and then technical dif- ficulties may be ironed out. Even after its plan of campaign has been approved and the actual date for the beginning of sanctions, it will be up to the 54 nations in the Assembly to decide whether they will support them.

Tomorrow the steering commit- tee of the Assembly will discuss problems of procedure and at seven pm. there will be a public session at which Anthony Eden of Britain and probably Premier Laval of France will speak. Representatives of other nations also will be given opportunity to express their views.

In any case, there will be a roll call of nations, similar to yester- day's when the Council indicted Italy as an aggressor and a violat- or of the covenant. 'I‘hcy will each be asked for their opinion on the report of the committee of six in- dieting Italy.
