ECONOMIC SANCTIONS.
NEED FOR WIDE CO-OPERATION.
GERMANY AND UNITED STATES.
(Received This Day, 9.0 a.m.) LONDON, October 4. A British United Press message from Geneva says that League officials are investigating economic sanctions, but fear that they are certain to fail unless Germany and the United States cooperate. Italy imported over £18,000,000 worth of goqds from each of these countries in 1933-34, including cotton oil, scrap-iron and metals from United States. While it is hoped that America will co-operate with the. League, Germany has shown undisguised contempt of the Covenant, and may be prepared to trade with Italy' in return for political concessions. A hopeful sign comes from Toldo, where the Foreign Office spokesman declared that Japan would adhere to internationals law, an indication which might mean the acceptance of sanctions.
