(8.0.W.) RUGBY, January 19. An agreement in which the independence and integrity of Abyssinia will be formally recognized by Britain has been completed and details are expected to be made known shortly in London. It is anticipated that full sovereignty will be restored to Haile Selassie and that assistance will be rendered by Britain to his Government in order to secure a sound economic basis for the country which twice has been involved in war during the past six years.
