Geneva optimists turned to hope .that the fighting would-be restrict- ed to Italy and Ethiopia, and that •league mediation would end it •within a reasonably short time. , A careful study of possible means to throttle an Italo-Ethio- pian, war quickly after hostilities begin was continued by League of- ficials, as well as by statesmen in •capitals of the two hemispheres. The League Council Committee of 13 arranged to examine tomor- row Hie history of. the crisis pre- pared by tbe League secretariat and to disucss ways and means of writing a peaceful end to that his- tory.
