Though Ethiopian exports have in- creased this year, monetary returns have been le: Several internal credit restrictiens are in effect and trading on a cash basis is becoming general. The Emperor has said that a vast treasure accumulated by earlier sovereigns is available for Ethiopia’s defense, but details regarding it have not been made public. It was pointed out here, however, that even though it might be a large individual holding, it would hardly be sufficient for any sustained arma- ment purchases. Ten, 15 or even 50 million dollars, for example, would be a mere drop in the bucket toward financing acquisition of modern war machinery. Lacking a centralized governmental system as it is known in most other countries, Selassie also would be likely to encounter difficulties if he | undertook any emergency measures for raising funds. The loosely-knit tribes might easily oppose the levying of war taxes or the confiscation of property for army use, it was said. Reports to the department set out that weak demand and low prices continue for the country's leading exports—coffee, hides, cereals and grains. The value of the country’s natural resources has never been fixed even approximately. As to mining, reports to the department say that there has been little exploitation. Potash, gold and platinum, however, have been produced irregularly in small quan- tities Among Ethiopia's principal assets are its lumber tracts.

BREMERTON, Wash., October 30.— A new type destroyer is nearing,com- pletion here after the seventy-first anniversary of the heroic exploit in which her namesake, Lieut. William Barker Cushing, joined the United States Navy's immortals. It was the night of October 27, 1864, that Lieut. Cushing destroyed the Confederate ram Albemarle and won fame. The destroyer, Cushing’s third namesake warship, will be christened here December 31 by his daughter, Miss Katherine Cushing of Fredonia, N. Y. It will be a double launching, the biggest ever performed here, with a sister ship, honoring another Civil ‘War hero, being floated in the build- ing dock at the same time. The sis- ter destroyer will be christened for Commodore George Hamilton Perkins and sponsored by the commodore's daughter, Mrs. Charles P. Greenough, Santa Barbara, Calif. The 1500-ton U. S. S. Cushing, like the Perkins, will be & powerful torpedo carrier. Bremerton Navy Yard officers said it is fitting that she, like her predecessors, should be a tor- pedo boat, for Lieut. Cushing used a torpedo to sink the Albemarle. 7~ world of hats so new as suedes HIREAT ® Tyroleans * Halos "'fl i o Off-the-face ® Turbans * Brims iy / @\@ s * High Crowns Children’s \\“\‘“\\\\\\M‘ —in black, navy and new Perfect blue, green, brown and rust— Quality i all the rich Autumn tones, so attractive when worn with fur HOSiel'y ! collared coats. 3 pairs for S 37 Half socks and % lsmgshfi”:*[; "!Wy hes 7 —and at this price they're il Ml 4 certainly extraordinary values!
