[TALIAN DEFEAT 1S SEEN BY TURK Wehieb Pasha, Dardanelles Hero, Thinks Duce Wili Fight to Save Face. BY LAWRENCE STALLINGS. By Cable to The Star. HARRAR, Ethiopia, September 14— Wehleb Pasha, Turkish hero of the | Dardanelles during the World War and now chief of staff of the Ethiopian | Army on the southern front, is confi- | dent that Ethiopia can repel any in- vading Italian force in his sector. “Mussolini is bluffing now, but it may be that he will fight to save face” Wehieb Pasha told men. “It would require a half million men to attempt to subdue Ethiopia, and even so it would be impossible to provide food and supplies for such a force.” “Conquest Hopeless.” “Conquest of Ethiopia by armies operating from Italian Somaliland is impossible. The present forces thexe[ are made up of 20,000 Italians and | an equal number of native troops. The | only advance en invading army could ‘ make must follow the course of the Webi Shebeli River, where Ethiopia's | defense line in the mountainous coun- | try between Dekmarodi and Kalanli would prove to be another Verdun.” Wehieb Pasha, whose headquarters {s at Jijiga, near Harrar, is organiz- | ing & mobile camel corps. In Turkey. | he said, the belief is prevalent that the Moslems will desert the Italian forces and join him. He spoke affection- | ately of the valorous British fighters | at Gallipoli, but disparaged their commanders and said he thought Gouraud and Von Mackensen were the best generals in the World War. ‘The Turkish general believes Ethio- pia will prove to be Fascism's grave. “The Italians could capture Ualual | and similar frontier posts near Italian | Somaliland in a half hour,” he said, “but it would be useless because the in- vaders must advance up the Webi Shebeli River. Ethiopia has nothing | to fear on either front and is ready for war, except that it is lacking in sani- tary corps.” Ethiopia (Continued From First Page.) after the day's oratory was over the text of the Italian communique— posted on the League's bulletin board ~—remained the chief center of in- terest. New Situation Is Seen. In all corners of the assembly build- Ing it was eagerly discussed as creat- ing an entirely new situation. A spokesman for the Italian dele- gation said no aggressive intention was behind the Italian cabinet action. It was merely a defensive measure, he said, “not aimed at any one.” Canada's representative, George Howard Ferguson, told the assembly that if & peaceful solution cannot be reached, “Canada will join other members of the League in consider- ing how, by unanimous action, peace can be maintained.” “There is only the question of defending the covenant of the League as the instrument of peace,” said | Maxim Litvinoff, Soviet commissar | for foreign affairs. Litviroff created surprise by saying the “covenant is not enough” and asserting certain | bilateral non-aggression pacts “ac-| tually are designed for security and aggression.” Attack on Treaty Seen. Poles and Germans interpreted this remark as an attack upon the Ger- man-Polish treaty of non-aggression. The Little Entente—Czechoslovakia, ! Rumania and Yugoslavia—and the Baltic States also defended the League Covenant. New Zealand followed Canada. Sir | James Parr, the New Zealand dele- gate, sald his country was backing the | Kellogg-Briand pact as well as the League Covenant. In connection with Canada’s state- | ment it was recalled that Canada | practically controls the world supply | of nickel—a vital item in case sanc- tions should be decided necessary. The speeches today followed ones | in which Great Britain and France | earlier this week pledged their whole- hearted support to the League Cov-| enant. Britons Are Silent. The British delegation declined to make any statement until after a study of the official text of the Italian cabinet declaration. Informal conver- sations in British circles, “however, gave the impression they were not | “frightfully worried” over the com- munique. | Soon after the appearance of the Italian communique Ethiopia depos- jted with the League a 15-page an-| swer to last week's Italian memoran- | dum charging Ethiopia with slsvery. and other abuses. The reply was in the form of a| “scientific expose” written by Marcel | Griaule, French author of various books on Ethiopia.

TALY, the birthland of Mlchla\‘elll.l the country which knows from | experience more than any other that politics are equivalent to double crossing, is thunderstruck at Laval's attitude at Geneva. Mussolini and his aides profess to The | Italian people, however, who have been told that France had “sold” Ethiopia to Italy last January when an agreement between the French premier and Il Duce was signed, seal- ed and delivered, are amazed at the change of attitude of the French. L & ¥ ¥ Laval, before making his historic | speech before the League of Natfons, ! had contacted Mussolini in Rome. I Duce told him was not particularly encouraging. Yes, he | would consider calling off his cam- paign against Abyssinia for the sake of world peace on one condition: That Italy should be given over Ethiopia the same control Great Britain holds over Egypt. That is to say that while the Emperor-may remain on the throne —as long as he is willing to play the Italian game—Italy shall be entitled to control Ethiopia’s eco= nomic and political life; maintain a high commissioner as the British have at Cairo, keep as many troops and airdromes there as they think necessary and have a final voice in the appointment of high officials and in the control of the country’s finances and economic resources. %k % Of course, such a sovereignty of Ttaly over Ethiopia is not only un- | acceptable to Selassie, but is also against the fundamental principles of | the League of Nations. No country | which is not independent, nominally at least, can be a member of the League. And Ethiopia has been a member since 1926. But this is really only a technical difficulty. There are many things which are impossible on paper be- cause of the existing treaties and no- body bothers about them. ok Italy now has two courses open. Either she ignores the League and goes ahead with plans for the con- quest of Ethiopia, or she gets out of the League and fights despite the opposition of the Society of Nations. * kX x The sanctions which the League can impose are mot only ecomomic and financial.

The treaty of October, 1888, which governs the Suez Canal, provides that | “The Suez Canal shall always be free and open in time of peace and in time of war to every vessel o° com- mercé and war without distinction of flag. The high contracting parties agree not in any way to interfer> with the free use of the Canal in tim= of war as in time of peace. The Canal | shall never be subjected to a block- | ade.” This treaty was signed by nine na- tions: Great Britain, Germany, Aus tria-Hungary, Spain, France, Italy, Turkey, the Netherlands and Russia. One of these nations, Germany, is no longer a member of the League. To obtain a modification of that treaty it would be necessary to obtain the con- It is hardly cumstances Italy, Austria and Hun- | gary would agree to any changes. | Of course, article 20 of the | covenant of the League of Nations is supposed to supersede any exist- | ing treaties which might interfere | with the actions of the covenant. | But, on the other hand, both in the treaty of Versailles and in the | treaty of Lausanne, signed between | the allies and the Turkish republic, the validity of the 1888 treaty gov- erning the Suez Canal has been recognized. | ¥ Xk There is enough eontroversial mat- ter in the interpretation of these the inter- national lawyers years of argu- ments: during this time, however, the British fleet may have acted.

The usefulness of these conferences was best described by the late Will Rogers in 1930 when he said: “At the London naval conference we stood through one speech, sat through eight and slept through 12.

In the official Ethiopian reply to the Italian charges, the representa- | tives of Emperor Haile Selassie point- ed out that one photograph which the | Italians had assertedly captioned as a picture of a thief whose hands were being cut off as punishment, was in reality a photograph of a murderer being put in chains. ‘The document added that such in- stances of cruelty as might actually be proved “may be justly compared | to similar cruelties in other countries, such as lynchings in New Orleans.” Such occurrences, it stated, while regrettable, “do not necessarily place the country in which they happen outside the pale of civilization.” COMPROMISE SPURNED. ROME, September 14 (#).—The cabinet announced today Italy will accept no retreat or compromise on the course she has laid out in East Africa, even in the face of the possible armed opposition of Europe. It indicated also that consideration is being given to the possibility of Italy'’s withdrawal from the League of Nations in case her membership interferes with her objective.

By the Associated Press. NURNBERG, Germany.—The Na: tional Socialist (Nazi) party, seeking to unify and develop a strictly German culture, has awarded two prizes of 20,000 marks (about $£8,000) each to two of its honored intellecturals here. One was the “Bard of Naz-ism,” Haps Johst, who is president of the Author's Academy. He wrote a pa- triotic drema. The other is Dr. Hans Guenther of the University of Jena. He was honored for his investigations in the fleld of racial science. Just before Dr. Alfred Rosenberg. presiding at the cultural meeting of the Nazi party, announced the award, Reichsfuehrer Adolph Hitler had told Germans from the same rostrum: “If you want to make & people proud, | you must give it something to be proud of.” Theése are the men in whose work Nazi-lsm expressed its pride: Johst is 45 and has been called the “Bard of Nazi-ism” since 1933. an idealist whose youthful ambition was to become a missionary, in further- | ance of which he served a term as pastor at Dodelsschwinghs Asylum, | Bethel. Since 1918, Johst has produced a voluminous quantity of lyries and frequently striking a tragic note inspired by the distressing post-war situation of Germnny. One of these, called “Thomas Paine.” deals with the American War of Independ- | ence, which he called “The Birth of a Nation.” Dr. Rosenberg said, in announcing the award to Johst “Midst frightful moral and political collapse, Johst, in his ‘Calls of Roland.’ | | written in 1918, championed German regeneration. In his ‘Prophets’ (a Luther play first performed in Wu(en- berg in September, 1933) and ‘Thomas Paine,’ he depicted in drsmn the characters of great revolutions. In his drama ‘Schiageter’ (a Nazi hero who was shot by the French in the Ruhr in 1923), he created a figure which will always be a shining example to all Germans. last soldier of the World War, but the first soldier of the third Reich. The National Sccialist party hereby thanks the author for his work and hopes he will continue to devote his energies to the strengthening of the great German regeneration.” bids the giving out of any military | information. Another important decision was taken by the Permanent Wheat Com- mittee, under Mussolini's presidency. | It decided the price of wheat must not go any higher. The minister of agriculture was ordered to dump 1.000,000 quintals of | wheat on the market at prices lower | Another mil- | | lion quintals is due from abroad (re- | than the current ones. liable sources indicated it was coming irom Hungary). Stern punishment will be meted out to speculators. A government spokesman, com- menting on the importance of the cabinet communique, said tonight the | extent of Italy’s military and naval preparations should not be minimized. “All our frontiers are guarded,” he asserted. An official source said “Italy does | not want to leave the League at any | cost, but if the League’s action renders | | her retention of membership impossi- | | ble, she will withdraw.” Another cabinet session was called for next Wednesday. Undoubtedly it | will reply to whatever proposals have been advanced in the meantime by the committee of five at Geneva. An authoritative source described the address in Geneva of Maxim Lit- vinoff, Soviet commissar, in support of the League as of no great concern to Italy, “since an unsympathetic dec- laration was expected from that source.” Troop movements continued tonight with the steamer Cesarea departing men and 10 officers. Four ships are scheduled to sail to- morrow with 12,000 soldiers. The Cesarea was American steamer Fort Saint George, recently purchased by the Italian government. FRENCH FEAR FOR AMITY. PARIS, September 14 (#).—France wondered tonight how she could re- tain Italy’s friendship if forced to| invoke sanctions against her.

If so French munitions might go to Ethiopia. French officials fear trouble in that case, because Italy would hardly watch quietly if French ships take war materials to Emperor Haile Selassie through the pors of Djibouti, French Somaliland.

Unemployment Reduced. Hitler has reduced unemployment from 7,000,000, when he came into power, to less than 2,000,000 today. He is building an enormous network of thoroughly modern roads, largely with labor from the government camps. He has developed an air fleet, which he says is greater than Great Brit- | ain’s, is building a modern navy, and has 500,000 in the army as against | the 100,000 allowed under the treaty | of Versailles. | He has withdrawn Germany from the League of Nations. | He is endeavoring to make Germany economically independent by foster- ing synthetic gasoline industries, syn- thetic cotton manufactures, and en- couraging the growing of wheat and | | other basic crops.

He has taken the dole from all un- married men under 25 years of age | making them go to the labor camps to | work for 10 cents a day, food, clothing and quarters unless they can get jobs.

He wiped out the “Steel Helmets” a veteran organization similar to our own American Legion, which was a | substantial, conservative, law-abiding | agency. Church Subordinated. He has subordinated the church m the state. The movement against the 500,000 Jews has now been broadened to include the 20,000,000 Catholics and | 40.000,000 Protestants. He has abolished all unions and labor organizations. as well as com- binations of employers, so that now | ! the employers walk with the employes in the Labor day processions, May 1. | He is breaking up great land hold- ings. partly by greatly increased taxa- tion, but more directly by compelling persons owning 3.000 acres or more to | ‘lum over part of the land to the people. | | He dictates the prices of food, even to what the housewife shall pay for raspberries and asparagus He has compelled German industry 'to contribute 750,000,000 gold marks to an export fund, which is twice the amount all German industry netted | last year, and therefore represents a capital Je He has levied on the postal savings banks for 500.000,000 marks of the people’s savings, and on the insurance companies for a like amount. Political Parties Abolished. He not only has abolished all polit- ical parties other than the one he | controls, making it impossible for minority opposition to become the majority except perhaps by revolu- | tion, but he has wiped out secret societies of all kinds. He has brought about complete sub- | ordination of the states to the federal | government, and thereby created a | great national unity in putting forth ! his will. He has established economic con- trol of the state as a requisite for the | liquidation of the crisis due to over- | indebtedness.

Hitler, Ley, Dr. Hjalmar Schacht, president of the Reichsbank, and Franz Seldte, minister of labor, all paid tribute to German workers as the world’s best and congratulated Germany that strikes and lockouts | are no longer possible. That a workers’ paradise has not yet been created is not surprising, Hitler said. “In the short span of three years we could not eliminate a ballast of centuries,” he said. “Besides, it is a good thing for humanity if, not all ideals are realized immediately.” “No other nation,” said Ley, “pos- sesses so intelligent preachers and | such wonderful people as Germany. | We shall never capitulate before world Jews.” | Schacht refrained from mentioning | the Jewish problem, and confined him- self to generalities confronting the community of interests in new Ger- | many between the employer and the employe, the landlord and the tenant, the leader and those led.

In view of the strong anti-Semitic note struck at Nurnberg in most of the speeches, the possibility was said to exist that legislation defining the status of the Jew may be proposed to the Reichstag for acclamation by Hit- | ler, in addition to his plan for pro- claiming the Nuazi swastika the sole emblem of the nation. In a speech to the assembled youths Hitler drew deafening cheers with these statements: “We won't do anybody any harm, neither will we stand for harm from anybody. We will not cross anybody’'s path. but let others leave usalone. * * * “Never forget: Friendship will be accorded only to the strong, and the ‘slrong alone deserve friendship.” HEIRESS WEDS ATHLETE Miss thselmnn and Gordon Dunn Are Married.
