ABYSSINIAN DISPUTE
CAPTAIN EDEN IN RDME FRUITLESS DISCUSSIONS FtNi Association— By Telegraph—Copyright . ROME, June 25. Captain Eden’s talk with Signor Mussolini was fruitless so far as a settlement of the Abyssinian dispute is concerned. A communique dismissed the subject in the sentence, “During the discussion the Abyssinian question was also examined.” Concerning other affairs, the communique says both agreed to continue to work for European appeasement according to the policy fixed at London and Stresa. ITALY’S AIMS EXPLAINED. Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright ROME, June 26. (Received June 27, at 10 a.m.) The right to build roads, railways, bridges, and schools in Abyssinia, and to use her influence in civilising it and also the general right of peaceful possession of colonies, are believed to have been Signor Mussolini’s aims explained to Captain Eden. Signor Mussolini pointed out that Italy was not prepared to lag behind Germany in claiming colonial expansion. It is understood that Captain Eden did not expound the British proposals, because they were not acceptable to Italy.
