Geneva, Apr. 21. World attention will soon focus on Geneva when the Council of the League of Nations opens its May 9 session. All the main problems of international politics will be discussed at that momentous conference China's appeal against Japan's aggression; the position of Austrian refugees since the proclamation of the Anschluss; Republican Spain's plea; the present situation in Ethiopia and Chile's proposal to reform the League Covenant are-on the agenda for Monday, May 9.
Observers anticipate the most d licate situation to arise from Haile Selassie's request to be represented at the Council session when the Ethiopian question comes up before the member States.
Optimists in Geneva hope that some member will solve the dificult ties in declaring Ethiopia to be nonexistent as an independent country, and therefore no representative of the Negus should be allowed to attend, Pessimists fear such an outright statement is unlikely although adr it would solve the problem. They ect Soviet Russia, China and New Zealand to oppose toc rapid dismissal of the question of Ethiopia's sovereignty.
