Dr. Hallam also announced that
he has received information indi
rectly that contract has already been
let for construction of buildings on
Laguna Vista park fee a CCC camp,
and that the government is to de
velop this 100-acre park which own
ers of the tract have offered to give.
Arrangements for title to be
transferred to the state park board

Hallam said.
The development will include
beautiflcaticn of the two lakes, con
struction of a causeway across one
of them, and other such work.
Although Lamina Vista will be the
Valley’s newest town when work
starts there, the townslte has been
on the map for many years, an pre
liminary development started some

the malor drawback In the past In
its development, and the owners ex
pressed the belief that Its growth
will be rapid from the date that wa
ter Is secured there.
Dr. Hallam said he could not tell
Just when the canal work will be
started, but it will begin as soon as
possible.

“on the spot” diplomatically.
If this country falls to make any
move, Ethiopia, as well as other na

If it recommends to other nations

ACTION BY U. S. AS
UBGCO BY ETHIOPIAN
ADDIS ABABA. July 5. /^—Ethio
pia's hope of keeping peace with
Italy was in the hands of the United
States Friday.
The African Empire, to a note de
livered to William Perry George, the
United States charge D'Affaires
here, asked America to invoke the
Kellogg-Briand Pact, under which
Italy renounced war as an instru
ment of national policy.
The five-page communication, cit
ing the massing of men and mum
ucns in African colonies as evident*
that Italy has warlike intentions,
urged that the United States seek
to make Italy adhere to the Pact
Independence Threatened
The note reiterated the determina
tion of Emperor Haile Selassie, king
of kings and conquering Lion of
Judah, to defend the integrity and
independence of his empire by legal
methods in an effort to settle the is
sues peacefully.
Tracing the development of the
Italo-Eithioplan controversy froai
Mattered border incidents to a ma
jor problem, the note contended that
Ethiopia's independence now was
being threatened with conquest by
Italy.
<The United States state depart
ment. which has twice taken the lead
to representations for peace since
the signing of the Kellogg-Briand
Pact August 27. 1928, declined com
ment pending receipt of the Ethio
pian note).
Simultaneously with delivery of
the note, Ethiopian authorities dis
closed that they are having diffi
culties in obtaining munitions from
European manufacturers.
They asserted that Denmark re
fused to deliver munitions after ac
cepting an offer; the Skoda Works
of Czechcelovakia refused to deliver
artillery after taking an order, and
French munitions factories declined
Ethiopian orders.
Italy Ignores Appeal
Belgium, they said, put an embar
go on export to Ethiopia of 7,500.000
cartridges after delivering the first
shipments of an order for 10.000.000.
Although still officially un
confirmed, details of a reported con
flict between Ethiopian and Italian
forces on the border of the Italian
