ENGLAND WILL HALT PENALTIES British Cabinet Votes To Abolish Italian Penalties (Copyright 1936 by UP.) Loudon, June 16.— W.PJ — Amid controversy ou the merits of a shift iu foreign policy, the cabinet prepared today to face the house of commons Thursday and defend its decision to support abolition of league .auctions agaiust Italy. Thu cabinet will meet formally tomorrow to ratify the recommendations of its foreign affairs committee, which last uight voted against continuing sanctions. It will discuss the defense of its new policy to be made by Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden, who has agreed to house of commons debate on foreign affairs Thursday. The policy shift made Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin and his government target tor bitter attacks. While the powerful Rothermere press demanded Eden's resignation from the cabinet, Viscount Cecil of Chelwood. president of the League of Nations union, said the cabinet's readiness to abandon sanctions is "midsummer madness." He spoke in the presence of Emperor Haile Selassie. Cecil admitted that France supporta the policy shift. “I have just returned from Fiance," he said. "I can tell you there are many mad people there. No doubt prudence is a valuable quality but prudence which degenerates into timidity is very seldom the path of safety.’’ Clement Attlee, laborite leader in parliament, announced he would force debate on foreign policy Thursday. He was supported by Vyvyan Adams, conservative, who demanded “assurances that the league does not compound Italy's abominable viliany." Eden, it was understood, in agreeing to the new policy against sanctions yielded to the cabinet majority led by Baldwin and Neville Chamberlain, chancellor of the exchequer. He agreed to urge at the league council session on June 26 and the assembly on June 30, the appointment of a special committee to i effect auoblition of sanctions. NEW OFFICERS i er, Dr. Paul Press of St. Louis, Rev. John Lente of Collegeville, Pa., eight ministers and eight laymen. Dr. Ivan Lee Holt, president of j ihe federal council of Churches of, Christ in America, addressed the i convention yesterday, 'pleading for | support of tile organization lie head: He termed it the “greatest jepirtual undertaking American pro--1 testanism will know during the days or your ministry." He praised the formation of the new church established in Cleveland in 1931 by the union of the reformed church in the United States and the Evangelical Synod of North America. Work on the new costitution continued to occupy most of the delegates' time, but it was expected the convention will have completed its business by the scheduled adjournment lime tomorrow.

ed 2,000.000 acres of spring wheat abandoned in the last two weeks. Spring wheat is dying at the rate of 1,000,000 bushels a day, and only heavy rain within the next week ca nsave the crop from the worst drought damage in many years," Murray said. The crops is off to a start much similar to that of the disastrous drought year of 1934. Inspectio not the intricate charts and graphs that line Murray's office high above LaSalle street, j keeping him as close to the soil as any dirt-smeared farmer, indicated that a recovery in spring wheat still is a possibility. The flue recovery of this year's winter wheat crop, which came through a period of drought, high winds, and dust storms to a yield not far under average, showed that a renew ed growing spree is not impossible for the spring crop. Other grain experts reported the condition grave in the northwest. , A prominent Minneaplis grain elevator owner said only scattered spots in North Dakota are expecting any crop at all. Many growers reported from 25 to 30 per cent of their crop already beyond recovery. o Paint Demonstration Is Held At Monroe!
