Dean Talk Called ‘Inadequate' Sole Protest Comes from Labor Leader as New Parliament Opens LONDON, 'Dec. 3 — 0J.P) — King George, in an address to parliament read by the lord high chancellor, urged today that “deficiencies in the imperial defense’’ be remedied.

Firm support of the league and fulfillment in cooperation with other countries of the league covenant with its article 16. penalizing a nation declared guilty of aggression. 2. Exertion of its influence in favor of Italo-Ethiopian peace acceptable to Italy, Ethiopia and the league. 3. “Urgently necessary” strengthening of the imperial defense forces m order to fulfill its international obligations under the covenant and to safeguard the empire. Laborite Complains Clement R. Attlee, new leader of the parliamentary labor party, criticized King George's address as “inadequate” in the face of the present international situation. Replying to Attlee’s criticism, Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin promised the “fullest possible discussion of the most difficult foreign situation facing the country.” The king's address, which opened this session of parliament, began: King Cites Policy “My government's foreign policy will, as heretofore, be Based on firm j support of the League of Nations. They will remain prepared to fulfil? in cooperation with other members of the league the obligations of the covenant. In particular, they are determined to use at all times the full weight of their influences for preservation of peace.

Movie ‘Men’ Swap Punches Over TeaCups-No Injuries By Henry Sutherland By United Press. Spencer Tracy, jutting-jawed film actor, and William Wellman, director, last night appeared to have revived one of Hollywod’s favorite indoor sports — trading punches over the teacups — after a lapse of several months. A swanky cocktail bar was the arena, and the bout conformed to the film colony's one-punch tradition, ending with the score tied at no runs, two hits and no errors. The most delicate of situations among Hollywood gallants, a slur on the reputation of a beautiful woman, touched off the melee, gossips said, but beyond the fact that she was a famous actress, her identity was not disclosed. Ringsiders said Wellman made a flippant remark about the lady in the midst of a group of movie elite, whereupon Tracy rose up in wrath and a boiled shirt and tagged him with a plunkling right. While women squealed and a crowd Jammed around, Wellman led with his own right, and plopped lt on Spencer’s pink ear. Tracy obligingly neglected to duck. Spectators crowded sc eagerly that the battlers were pushed apart undamaged, and no further blows were launched. They afterwards kissed and made up. which is also in keeping with Hollywood tradition. “It was of no importance,” said Tracy. “Bill and I have met and shaken hands.’ Wellman was riled over rumors he was sporting a souvenir black eye. “Bosh,’ he snorted, adding: “It was nothing serious, merely a misunderstanding.’ The film famous who cluster eagerly round professional rings, have a long list of intramural one-punchers on the records. The most recent bouts were those of Joet Benjamin, fighter-pal of Jack Dempsey, who tok on Fred Perry, number one British tennis star, and Grant Withers last spring. John Gilbert and Jim Tully once staged a bloodless battle in a Hollywood night club, and a short time thereafter Tully traded swings with Murphy McHenry, writer. Both missed and called it a day. Al Jolson claims a one-punch victory over Walter Winchell, and John Monk Saunders once kayoed Herbert Marshall. Wampus ‘Too Big’ For Single Theme Abandoning the usual custom of using one theme, the December issue of the Wampus will combine the ideas of homecoming and Christmas into one large issue which will be released Wednesday December 11. announced Editor Nash last night.
