Genevieve Tabouis, the singularly well-informed diplomatic correspondent of “L’Oeuvre,” asserting that England and France realise the inconveniences which should be attached to oil sanctions, says that the growing anxiety caused by German armaments makes Britain and France desire that the Italo-Abyssinian war should be ended as quickly as possible.

Tabouis also states that Paris and London are convinced that Signor Mussolini now regrets that he cITcl not immediately accept the Laval-Hoare conference, and allowed the August conference to fail. II Duce made the mistake of thinking that he could win over Ethiopian chiefs with money, and conquer the country in a few weeks. Australian Trade Diverted.
