Whenever observers spotted large groups of natives concealed at any certain point, the squadron roared into nose-dives and the machine guns blazed. Although puffs of smoke indicated we were being fired upon by rifles from the ground, when the aircraft leveled off and the Italians loosed their bombs, the reporter could sec Ethiopians fleeing on all sides. cast in the ballot box at Finney’s, said. been. elected queen will be made at the pep Brown .
