Prospects of Settlement Appear to Have Vanished
MUSSOLINI’S PLAN IMPOSSIBLE Received Monday, 11.50 p.m. LONDON, Sept. 20. The Times’ Geneva correspondent says the Italian counterclaims also included a demand for the separation of the nonAmharic territories in Abyssinia from the Amharic, placing them under Italian control. The prospects of a settlement now appear to have vanished, for the proposals go far beyond anything Abyssinia would freely accept. Moreover, they cannot be reconciled with the principles of the League Covenant or the rights of Abyssinia as a League member and are practically a repetition of Italy’s demands since the beginning of the dispute. If enforced they would mean Italian military domination, which the 'League Council, and especially Britain, regards as unacceptable in any circumstances.
