...Duce. Distasteful steps were promptly taken. Sir Eric Drummond, onetime Secretary General of the League of Nations, now Ambassador to Rome, was suddenly called back to London for a conference with the Cabinet. Hard-working Capt. Anthony Eden, only just recovered from a heart attack, was appointed British agent for a suddenly called Franco-British-Italian conference at Geneva to try to avert something almost as embarrassing as a war-formal action by the League of Nations Council, meeting this week in its 86th session. Since 1923 Abyssinia has been a League member in good standing...

...have taken note of the CRIMSON editorial of yesterday regarding the Hearst Metrotone News. As I see it the manager of a theatre is acting as the agent of the audience; it is his job to arrange programs to please the greatest number. When and if an objection is raised against any part of the program, and if this opinion in the estimation of the management represents the feeling of a considerable number of people, I would consider it to be very poor policy to persist in showing the subject found objectionable. In line with this thought, when...
