for final rote. Although on the
basis of the talk filtering into
town, the main interest seems to
rest largely with the same econ

Hewlett at the meeting November
7 and 8 when the budget was
adopted tentatively.
With only the two commission

showing decided opposite opinions
on borne budget items when the
tentative figures were proposed,
somje curiosity is being expressed
as io just what is going to hap
pen on the final adoption of the
budget.
Majority to Mean
Unainimous Now
This year County Judge Sieg

sit on the budget gathering, and
Judge McMahan, who has been
acting as county Judge, has been
held to have no vote in county
matters. The citizen members of
the committee which drew the
budget have no vote on the final

in the hands of Commissioners
MeUon and Hewlett, ' - -
In past years, a majority of the
three-court members has voted

If Embargo Is

Italy But Not From
Official Source
Suicide Air Squadron Is
Ready; League Meet's
Delay Explained
(CopvriirM 1935 by the Associated Pwss)
ROME, Nov. 28. Responsible
persons with high connections
said tonight a war that might be
a world war is a certainty if the
League of Nations places an oil
embargo upon Italy.
These persona were not offi
cials. They said Premier Musso
lini, at a midnight session of the
fascist grand council November
18, adopted this three-point pro
gram to be used if an embargo is
applied:
1. Italy would withdraw her
ambassadors and ministers from
all "enemy" countries (those ap
plying the oil sanctions).
2. Italy would Quit the League
of Nations.
3. Italy's "death squad" air
force of the navy would strike
immediately at the British fleet
in the Mediterranean. This is re
ported to be a force of 125 pilots
pledged to go to certain death.
Each would carry one huge bomb
in his plane, pick out an enemy
warship and dive upon the vessel.
Desperate War to
Break King Suggested
It would be a sudden, desper
ate war in an attempt to break
through the ring of 52 besieging
nations, these sources said.
This determination was said to
have been, given by Premier Mus
solini o Sir Erie Drummond, the
British ambassador, here last Sat
urday and through the Italian
ambassadors to Premier Laval of
France and Sir Samuel Hoare,
British foreign secretary, on Mon
day and Tuesday.

gram, these sources continued,
