GUARDSMEN TURN 10 ROAD BUILDING Rains Cause Suspension. of : Training Schedule at Camp Simms.” * The regular training schedule for the District National Guard at Camp Simms was suspended this morning, and the troops turned out for emer- gency road building operations made necessary by the protracted rains which softened the clinging soil to a int where the heavy trucks were :;gged. * Under the direction of Lieut. Col. Julian S. Oliff, executive officer of the 121st Engineers, the part-time soldiers began construction of a loop at the end of the present roadway to permit vehicles to turn without running onto soft ground. It is planned throughout the two weeks training period, which began last Saturday, gradually to extend the main road toward the site about a quarter of a mile distant which Col. John W. Oehmann, camp commander, wants prepared as a future camping ground. It lies across the creek from the present encampment. Despite the handicaps the Guards- men have faced at.Camp Simms, which was not in shape for the en- eampment and present all the diffi- culties of operation in the field, the Realth of the men has been better than under the ‘country club” condi- tions they encountered in previous years at Cascade, Md. permanent camp of the Maryland Guard. Ailments of Minor Nature. Only about half the number of last gear have been responding to the daily sick call and ailments have been of a minor nature, such as bee-stings, blisters and colds, Maj. Joseph J. Greenlaw, camp medical officer said today. The medical detachment has been especially careful to take all pos- gible precautions to safeguard the health of the troops under the rough eonditions. Regimental day yesterday was & muddy affair, but the Guardsmen paraded across the sticky field without grumbling. One hundred and fifteen recruits and five new officers were inducted into the regiment. The offi- cers were First Lieut. E. J. C. Hilden- brand, Medical Corps, and Second Lieuts. James D. Tanner, Reynald C. Feldt, John E. Coughlin and Lewis A. Jackson. Members of the 29th Military Po- lice Company and the headquarters detachment, 29th Division Special | Troops, looked on, as the Engineers stood in front of the unfinished box- ing stand and listened to addresses by Gen. Fries, Col. Oehmann, Maj. D. Lee Hooper, Regular Army instruc- tor, and Chaplain Arthur L. Smith. “Great Lies” Branded. Gen. Fries branded as “great lies” statements that war is inhuman and never settles anything. He said invention of weapons and military organization was *‘the great- est invention of the human race,” and called the profession of arms “the hoblest and most honorable in the | world.” “If T had my way, every youth in this country would be compelled to take two or three months military training annually,” he declared. Col. Oehmann, who has been in command of the regiment for 12 years, told the men they were fortunate to be at Camp Simms, because it is close to ‘Washington and affords them greater opportunities for training than would 8 more finished camp. His remarks about the object of their training differed somewhat from Gen. Fries’. He said it was a “sort of game.” “We're not learning to be bloodthirsty,” he continued,” we're only preparing ourselves for danger.” Maj. Hooper commended the men for the co-operative spirit they have &hown. Individual Mention. In the reading of commendations by Regimental Adjt. Earl Smithson, Captr. Samuel R. Turner, George W. Johns and Hugh Everett, and First | Lieut. John T. O'Neill received indi- vidual mention for excellence of ap- pearance and equipment. Maj. George J. Allen, 29th Division #tafl medical officer, was taken to Wal- ter Reed Hospital yesterday suffering from a gastro-intestinal disturbance. His condition is not considered serious. Daily inspection yesterday resulted in the kitchen flag being awarded to Company E and the flag for the best policed area to Company B. A Dbattalion parade for formal guard mount will be held this after- noon if the weather and condition of the parade ground permit. Consul (Continued From FPirst Page.) of the British Minister to Ethiopia the consul was on his way by caravan to his post at Debre Marcos in God- Jam Province. The alleged accident occurred in Suralto forest. One of the two bul- lets fired grazed the baron's lungs. When the shots were fired he was ex- amining a revolver. Although two days have elapsed gince the shooting and the baron had lost a great deal of blood, doctors said they were hopeful of his recovery. The accident caused excitement in Addis Ababa in view of the strained situation between Italy and Ethiopia. Baron and Baroness Falconi left Addis Ababa Jast Tuesday on their journey into the northwest. The baroness said they camped Wednes- day on Soulouta Plain. (Note: This date is not in conformity with the official Ethiopian communique.) The baroness went into the forest, she said, leaving her husband sitting on a rock. When she returned, she found him lying in a pool of his own blood. Was Practicing with Gun. She asked the Ethiopian servant what had happened. He replied: “Accident.” , By further questioning, the wife was given to understand that the enosul was practicing with his re- volver. He pulled the trigger and the weapon failed to fire. He turned the gun around to examine it and it ex- ploded. ‘The official Ethiopian communique follows: “On Tuesday, Baron Mumbzi Fal- coni, an JItalian consul, left Addis Ababa to rejoin his post at Debre Martos. During his journey'he left his caravan for a short time to go hunting. “A moment later his ascari (native soldier) heard two shots.

Italy Must Go Somewhere That's the Explanation Offered for March Toward This dispatch from Mr. Stallings, now on his way to Ethiopia for The Star and the North American Newspaper Alliance, is based on information he assembled during visits he made to Rome, London and Paris just before he sailed jrom Europe. Mr. Stallings’ ship is due in Djibouti mext Saturday. Thence he will proceed immedi- ately to Addis Ababa, capital of Ethiopia. BY LAURENCE STALLINGS, Author of “What Price Glory" Big Parade,” “The First World Wi S. S. AZAY LE RIDEAU, August 21 (N.AN.A)).—There is no doubt in the Italian mind that Italy will begin its arduous colonization of the vast and fertile Ethiopian plateau some time in the latter part of September. Though the temper of the Italian nation is not one of war, the military problem is quite clearly understood; its immediacy is hardly in doubt, even in detail. The armies of the House of Savoy will attempt the advance along a route which strategic necessity dic- tates, no matter how great will be the tactical cost. This route will lead around the terrible Danakail deserts from Eritrea to the uplands, which he begin their rise at 1500 feet and | ascend to impenetrable crags and al- most unknown peaks. The southward and easterly, along the nat- ural salient which is dominated by Addis Ababa. If fortune favors its capitulation, then the Italians must turn northward again, still easterly, to Italian Somaliland. You may draw a triangle, the base- line running from Asmara in Eritrea to Mogadiscio in Somaliland, with the apex resting upon Addis Ababa. A plumb line dropped from this point will fall along the rail which leads from the Ethiopian capital to the French port of Djibouti. The Italians have already drawn these lines, Military Scheme Mapped. A new map of Ethicpia, issued by the Instituto Georgrafico de Agostini, now prints, in a cartouche at one corner, a bird's-eye view of this as- tonishing military proposal, the tri- angle being given in deep red, with distances marked in kilometers; ex- actly as a tourist’s map may give, in the addenda, a delightful side trip. From Asmara to Addis Ababa is 695 kilometers (432 miles). From hence, on the obtuse leg, it is also 1,050 kilometers (652 miles) to Mogadiscio in Somaliland. The plumb line of the railroad stretches 550 kilometers (341 miles) to the Gulf of Aden. This map is of immense signifi- cance, whatever illimitable diplomatic possibilities it may suggest. For the map omits all drawing of political boundaries between Italian and Ethiopian frontiers. An Ethiopian horseman, using this map, can be reasonably sure of his situation, if he is in the territory of the Somalis which is governed by France or by England. But were he to ride to- ward the territory of the Italians, he would face (on the new map) the boundless sort of thing the Portuguese were confronted by some thousand years ago. Boundaries to Be Redrawn. The suggestion is that these boun- daries must. be redrawn, at passible military cost. The inference is that they are eradicated forever; that the Italian plan is to reach from the Mediterranean to the Indian Ocean. When the Italians last came to Ge- neva they were considerably embar- rassed by their former maps; for their own cards revealed Ualual (where the present crisis originated) as being in Ethiopia. Now there is a new deck to deal from. Ualual is terra incog- nita, seemingly to be explored. The Geneva meeting September 4 does not concern any Italian recently interviewed. These say that no one, in the midst of the rather general horse-laughs directed at the Kellogg anti-war pact, has cared to note that Sir Edward Grey, British foreign min- ister, and Pierre Paul Cambon, French Ambassador to London, back in 1906, were not unversed in Kelloggian dia- tectics. ‘The three-power pact of 1906 does signify the intention of the powers (England, France and Italy) to *co-| operate” to maintain a status quo. But this co-operation is limited by “best efforts” and there is nowhere in it any indication of a spirit beyond mere po- brought to Addis Ababe and taken to the Italian hospital. The govern- ment opened an inquiry to find out the circumstances of '.h; affair.” liteness of effort. No Italian cares to discuss this pact., “France is our friend,” they say, courteously referring in this way to the English agreement 0 line of advance must push | Ethiopia. | with Von Ribbentrop for a German navy. Embargo Failure Seen. All over Europe the diplomats, get- | ting out their fire hats for the first | time since 1914, are blinking at Sig- | nor Mussolini’s dazzling successes. | Likewise the bankers—who still per- }sist in thinking they count-—are ‘ngminu that Il+<Duce can stand no | more than a year of war finance. | British major generals from the Sudan declare that Ethiopia will run arms, embargo or not, along the Anglo-. Sudanese border, and that nothing short of a full British Army corps could close this frontier to contra- | band caravans. | English commissioners, who have forgotten the Khyber Pass in their ex- citement, declare that I Duce will need three years to win Ethiopia, if the arms embargo is upheld, and seven if it is lifted. In Paris a French- wan who has devoted his life to a| study of Marshal Lyautey’s work in | subduing Morocco, says that Ethiopia | is “Morocco multiplied by 50.” | | No one in England or France—in the military “know"—believes that any but the most severely drawn fighting can place Ethiopia under the flag of | Savoy. War Fever Deferred. In Italy, however, there is mainly | calm. One notes not so much the ab- | sence of war spirit as a lack of neces- sity for it. Doubtless, if the campaign takes place, it will be a simple matter to fan the nation into a fever heat— as such matters have never been diffi- | | cult when hlood has been spent afar. | Just now Il Duce does not need tne | tumult and shouting. “We must go somewhere,” an Ttalian reserve captain says. “We all | t0 guide him, but would have sprung. | American Airways today received & | with his cohorts of the adjacent Tigre message from Joe Barrows, the com- are workers. For years our surplus la- bor went to America. Now there are no jobs there. We have promised France to keep out of the Balkans,| so we go to Ethiopia.” | | It 1s, I think, the coldest proposal for an’ invasion, for all its promised | heat, in military annals. The overt incident on which Italy bases & casus | beili is so trivial as to be almost for- gotten. Someli No. 61, series A, and Italian Trooper No. 62, series B, clashed in tne dark somewhere. Every | effort has been made to make amends | for the clash, but 200,000 men are | now surviving the rigors of a terrible | { strip of desert depression, awaiting | | the signal to begin the partitioning of | | fierce country into peaceful Italian | farms. | The best answer—the most preva- | lent one—which the Itallan makes to | a question of arms, is not one of fer- vor. “The Ethiopian Plateau,” he says, “bdasts a climate which will be very suitable to us. Difficulty Conceded. “The sheer military occupation of | the plateau, one is assured, will be | most difficult. -But we shall have no | repetition of the Adowa catastrophe. At that time we were just beginning | as & nation. We had a chamber of deputies to confuse things, to refuse proper support of the army. But in this one—everybody does what Il Duce says. Of course, it will take years to settle the country. But the military necessity will soon be dis- missed. “There has been difficulty in Erit- rea among the troops this Summer? Suffering? Disease? Well, yes. Nat- urally, I can say little, for I know nothing. Everything is censored, which is right. I have my best friends there, He is a class ahead of me, and what a fellow to complain about everything! He would tell everything. But in his letters to me he writes that everything is all right. I laugh when his letters come. What he would | write if he could!” | I ask a captain of 40 if he really wants such a war. The inevitable answer is “no!” For him the Ethio- | pians are rather obtuse in not placing | themselves under Italian rule. By far the easiest way out of the difficulty would be voluntary submission to a | protectorate, he assures me. | ‘The most unexpected attitude of the | Italians concerns their inclination to | discount the most recent developments | in combat arms. Thus they do not foresee any great series of air raids blasting the Ethiopians from the face of Africa. “Our planes,” they say, “will be mainly infantry contact, guarding against surprise, suj the ad- vance, spotting for field guns, perhaps fighting over us, and with us.” As for tanks—"“of course, but with great diffi- culty, and then perhaps & nuisance.” The matter of ehemical warfare 1 | (those fabulous stories of gas concen- tration more effective than a chemist | might dream of) they dismiss. “To be sure, gas, if the tactical situation demands it. But it will be mainly foot and horse and light guns, as always. But we shall go very fast, in the style | of the legions of Caesar. Tanks, air- | planes, gas—these will give us no | waste movements. We shall do it, for we must go somewhere.” As to the men who oppose them, | let us read Col. H. Murray Jacoby's startling estimate of their leader. Col. Jacoby was the Special Ambassador from the United States to the corona- tion of Haile Selassie in 1930. “In Haile Selassie.” he writes, “there is combined all the administrative strength of a Yamagata and sn Ito, or, more recently, of a Melam Pasha. ® * * It is not so difficult to create a humanist in an idealistic democracy, but it does require a sublime courage to forbid the trading of slaves in the heart of Africa after 5000 years of bondage.

Yet the possibility of averting war may not be within the power of the Ethiopian Emperor. Thus far, Europe believes, he has played the game at with Britain as his right bower, and it is thought here that he will again offer a compromise, if and when the September 4 meeting fails to assuage the Italian demands. He might possibly offer Ogaden—his last portion of Somaliland—for Somali chiefs have traded before, as England and France have reason to know. Just how much he might concede is a matter of great delicacy of balance; | for his uplanders, it is universally agreed, will concede nothing. Certain cynics think he would never have per- mitted the Italians such leisure to consolidate a military base on the | (now non-existent) borders of Eritrea, ‘\ had there been no League of Nations | Kingdom, upon the Italian base at Asmara. It is an anomaly that Haile Selassie is a philosopher, a man of mild man- | ners, ruling over a dozen Kkings in lion robes. It is not, one believes, up to him in the final result as to how Italy will make her destiny in Ethi- opia. That he has about him now men of a world point of view, and that many able soldiers of fortune are ready to aid his commands, may give him the necessary firmness to refuse all demands. It will be, it is agreed, a matter of foot, horse and light guns, and no country was ever less suited to dem- onstrate the modernity of war than his. If the Italians suspect, then he must know—his people have known 5,000 years of it—that the way of the invader above 5,000 feet is hard. England Strongest Friend. Haile Selassie cannot be accused of failure to wish the benefits of civiliza- tion upon his people without Italian aid. His “open door” policy, his ef- forts to abolish a grievous slavery as old as his state, have stood him in good stead. But all the world knows that his strongest friend is Britain— England with its rule over millions of Mohammedans, anxious to keep the peace of the Mohammedan world. His ranks will be filled with European captains, who will’ follow the dictum of that genius, Lawrence of Arabia, who never made war upon men, but upon their material, if they were modern men. If Halle Selassie has to make war, then he must move every piece in the game to establish opén warfare. As D. O, ~—Copyright, *‘A. P.

LITLE HOPE SEEN FOR SHIPPING BLL Copeland Says Note From President Unlikely to Alter Subsidy Plan. By the Associated Press. Despite a personal note from Presi- dent Roosevelt expressing “hope” that a direct ship subsidy bill would pass before adjournment, Senator Cope- land, Democrat, of New York, said today the prospects of such action were bad. Through Secretary Roper the Presi- dent sent a penciled memorandum to Copeland, chairman of the Senate Commerce Committee, saying: “I do hope the shipping bill will go through. I know you will do the best you can on the various forms before you” New Draft Tabled. Copeland’s committee yesterday tabled & new ship subsidy bill drafted in the Post Office Department. He called his commitiee today to go nver a revised print of the bill it reported several weeks ago, which ran inlo stiff opposition in the Senate, prin- cipally from Chairman Black of the special committee that investigated ocean and airmail contracts. The revised draft would permit existing ocean mail subsidy contracts to remain in force until June, 1936, with a new Federal maritime author- ity trying, meanwhile, to modify them. It also provides for construction and operating subsidies, separate from mail contracts, equivalent to the dif- ferences in cost of building and operating domestic and like foreign craft.
