ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARA THAN THAT OF ANY Of TENSION EASES ABROAD. ‘The European situation becomes more intriguing, and despite the determination of 52 nations to enforce an economic blockade against Italy on November 18, | the tension in the last few days has actually lessened. | This, apparently, is attributable to two things, the most important being that France and Great Britain have gotten together. The other may be the dsmcumes: Mussolini’s forces are encountering in making. their | advance into Ethiopian territory. It is evident now that tne British and French are in one accord as to Italy, and this would indicate that England has had her way, for Premier Laval was for! a‘time attempting to flirt with Mussolini. Anything | could have happened in Europe had France decided to cast her lot with the Italians, but with her on the side of Great Britain, at least so far as the present situation pertains, it makes the picture across the water much .ess dangerous than it previously appeared. Time only can tell the ultimate result but the fact that the two key mations in the League of Nations are in the group of 52 with which Mussolini has to deal, and with their | own disputes apparently settled, lends weight to the hope that a major European conflict may be avoided. The fact that Italy is making slow progress into! Ethiopia, probably due to the lack of roads and gen- erally intolerable climatic conditions, gives further| .reason for Mussolini's recent assertion through his: ipersonal representative, Baron Aloisi, that “Italy does | first word is as the “A” in “as." The accented muddle | might arrive. ‘not refuse peace,” although she still insists on right | of expansion, and security in carrying out such a pro- | gram. Those are milder words than the Italian Pre- | mier used a month ago and they indicate Italy is| jmodifying her criginal demands. | A great many things may happen in Europe between | now and November 18 when the blockade is due to| go into effect, but the tone of dispatches in the last | few days gives indication that the tension is consid- | erably eased. CORRECTIVE MEASURES. In his speeches in the West, Col. Frank Knox, the‘ Chicago publisher who aspires to the Old Guard nomination for the Presidency next year, asserts' that President Roosevelt “by his plottings endangers the Constitution and the country.” He asks his aud- | dences at Republican county committee rallies—one ‘was described as a tri-county affair—“Upon what food | does this our Caesar feed? What madness has seized | upon him?” | Then apparently without awaiting & response i from his audience the Chicago colonel recommends the diet upon which another Roosevelt fed, in these words: It seems clear to me that if we are to pre- serve our competitive philosophy; if we are to preserve our individual liberty; if we are 1 to live under the kind of institutions that ‘ have given us world leadership—then we must ! g0 back to those corrective remedies for the | ~ ills of a competitive system which were 1 .- dramatized by Theodore Roosevelt. Now Col. Knox has been at great pains—in the New York Times make this interesting point: Sergeant Stanley Morgan of the Army Signal Corps is back from his station at Point Barrow, Alaska, for a year’s furlough and service in the United States. It is his first visit in seven years. It feil to him to give the world such pieces of news as the arrival of the | Lindberghs and the death of Will Rogers and Wiley Post, but he is described as an un- assuming young man rather bewildered by the attentions showered on him. ‘What will happen to this quiet young man in the next few days? The ground in every direction is strewn with the corpses of would- be prophets in every field, yet one may pre- dict with a fair amount of confidence the immediate future of Master Sergeant Stanley Morgan from lonely Point Barrow, on the shores of the Arctic. | Sergeant Morgan will soon be heard on the radio. He will be taken on a tour of the night clubs. He will be entertained in a big suite at a leading hotel. He will get a view of New York from the top of Empire State Building with Alfred E. Smith to point out the sights {0 him. This happened to Dr. Dafoe of Ontario, to the little grandmother from Arkansas who won a prize as the best rural newspaper cor- respondent, to the lad who tracked thousands of miles across the Arctic wastes recently. The lonelier the spot they come from, the more unsophisticated their work, the more night clubs they are compelled to visit in their tour of civilization. It is our theory that after Sergeant Morgan has done the various things an adulatory public insists on him doing as a result of the hero-worshipping psychology on which we feast, he will return to Point Barrow when his year's furlough is up and continue to carry on the work and traditions of the U. S. Signal Corps, convinced no doubt of the height of Al Smith’s Empire State Building but surfeited with the mob applause heaped on every man who sees his duty and does it well. How to Pronounce Ethiopian Names. (New York World-Telegram.) An American scholar who has lived long in Ethiopia, and a young Egyptian graduate student at Teachers’ College, son of a native chieftain, have solved one of the minor puzzles of the time. They told how to pro- nounce the dismaying Ethiopian surnames and bits topography which are coming alive in the war zone. They are authorities: Dr, Barnum Brown, Curator of Fossil Reptiles of the American Museum of Natural History, and Mbiyn Wa Koinange, of International House. This Amharic language spoken in the area bound- ed on the north by Egypt and on the south by the Red Sea, they said, is as dialectic as the talk from the apartments beneath the thunder over the Bronx to the sequested dwellings back of the live oaks of New HAPPY in English By W.

But, they said, a guide to pronunciation is plausible, and here it is, with the accented syllables, capitalized. Following, first, are place names in the spotlight: | Addis Ababa—AD-dis A-BA-ba. The “A” in the, “A” in the second word is as the “A” in “Ah.” (That| is the way they say it now, the scholars said, in the| land which the Grecian etymologists called the place of the “swarthy-faced,” even though Webster's latest has it AH-dis AH-ba-ba.) | Eritrea—Era-TREE-a. | Massaua—Mas-SHA-wa. | Aduwa—Ad-UW-a. | Asmara—As-MARA-a. i Abunda Josef—A-BOOna JO-sef. Warra Haibu—Wa-r AI-bo. | Neded—NEH-DED. Garajam—Ga-RA-garm. “Ah.”) Following now are the names of towns and vil- lages along the railway linking the French seaport of i Djibouti with Addis Ababa. The Italian forces may converge on this railway from both sides and fDuOW1‘ it up to Addis Ababa: | Djibouti—Jee-BOO-tee. (The “O” as in an Amer-| ican “B0o.”) | Addagala—AH-da-gal-la. | Diredawa—Deer-DAW-wa. ! Awash—AH-wash. | Godaburka—God-Ah-burka. i Following are names of towns and villages on the Italian Somaliland side, along the caravan route which | the Italians may follow in advancing to Diredawa ‘ and Harar to join forces with the Italian forces from | (The middle “A” as in| | Eritrea: | | Uoladdeje—Wal AH-deh. | Jijiga—Jee-JEE-ga.

West—to proclaim his undying allegiance to the prin- ,ciples enunciated in the platform of the Progressive | «Party in 1912, So it is fitting to refer to that declara- tion of principles, because they were written by lhc" ‘nominee for the Presidency himself and as strongly | cefended and as vigorously expounded as any con- vention platform in our political history. Here is its| definition of “the ills of the competitive system”: | Behind the ostensible government sits en- throned invisible government, having no al- legiance and acknowledging no responsibilities to the people. To destroy this invisible gov- ernment, to dissolve the unholy alliance be- tween corrupt business and corrupt politics is — | the first task of the statesman of the day. | On the subject of the “corrective measures” so| highly recommended by Col. Knox, the Progressive platform of 1912 declared: Up to the limit of the Constitution and later by amendment to the Constitution, if found necessary, we advocate bringing under effective national jurisdiction those problems which have expanded beyond reach of the individual States It is grotesque, as it is intolerable, that the States should by unequal laws in matters of common concern become competing com- + mercial agencies, barter the lives of their 4 children, the health of their women and the safety and well-being of their working people for the profit of their financial interests. Has not this forthright demand of 23 years ago for Ycorrective measures” been answered during the past thirty months with such enactments as the National Labor Relations Act, the Agricultural Adjustment Act, the Social Security Act, the Securities and Ex- change Act, the Banking Act, the Utilities Holding Company Act, the Home Owners Loan, Farm Credit, Housing, TVA, and other recovery and reform meas- ures of the Roosevelt Administration? MORGAN AND THE MOB. Arrival of Master Sergeant Stanley Morgan in the States from Point Barrow is causing considerable com- ment in various publications as to his exploits. The Mogadiscio—Moe-ga-DEE-show. Sasa Baneh—SAH-sah-BAH-neh. Fogogi—Foe-GO-Jee. Galadi—Ga-LA-dee. Imi—EE-MEE. Following are names of towns and cities on the Eritrea side of the Ethiopian railway which may be| endangered: Antalo—An-TA-lo. The “A” as in “as.” Barachit—Ba-RA-Keet. The “A” as in “bar.” Lassarat—La-SA-rat. The “A” as in “Ah.” Kudaiti—KOO-day-tee.
