GIRL IS INJURED Invasion by Italy |WHEN THROWN BY HORSE - SILENT WORSHPP HELD IN RICHMOND Pantomime Sermon and Prayers Observed for Deaf by Missionary. By the Associated Press. RICHMOND, November 11.—There was a church service in Richmond today at which not a single word was spoken. pcwnh sweeping arm gestures, deft| movements of his fingers and swift/ changes of facial expression, the min-| {ster preached a completely silent O hen) Bo jcame to) the Tords prayer, his congregation joined with him in a symphony of soundless ges- tures. It was the Rev. H. Lorraine Tracy, Episcopal missionary from Washing- ton, holding services for the deaf in the Chapel of St. Andrew's Episcopal Church. Group Keenly Attentive. The congregation was not large— about 15 persons—but it was keenly attentive, following with rapt eye every motion the minister made. From the main church nearby came the| sound of singing. the intoning of pray- ers. But in the little chapel was a profound silence. Only the breathing of the minister. coming occasionally in pants as he exerted himself in strenu- ous gestures, broke the stillness. Facial Expressions Given. One moment his face drooped with| sorrow as he sadly pointed to mouth| and ears to indicate the affliction of | his hearers; a few seconds later it brightened to af expression of glowing | happiness as he preached his doctrine; of faith, courage and salvation, despite physical handicaps. | THE WEATHER l District of Columbia—Occasional rain with mild temperature tonight and tomorrow, followed by colder late tomorrow afternoon or night; much | colder Wednesday: gentle southerly | winds, becoming moderate northwest | by tomorrow night.

By the Associated Press., ADUWA, Ethiopia, October 25 (by mail to Paris).—The commerce of two generations was the reason why the people of Tigre Province gave the | Italian armies so little resistance and | submitted to the latter’s rule so read- ily, authorities pointed out today. This commerce has been carried on with the Tigre people as sellers and Italian-owned Eritrea as the buyer. Their commercial capital is Asmara, Eritrea, not Addis Ababa. Tigre exports 20,000 tons of grain to Eritrea every year. Cotton from the fields of Northwest Tigre is sold in the Eritrean cotton center of Tes- senes. Live stock has crossed the border by the thousands of heads to feed the Ialian colony. Incense has gone to Asmara, thence to Italy, and gold and ivory were sold to Italian colonists in small quan- tities until Emperor Haile Selassie published a law requiring all gold to be sent to his capital. These trade relations began almost immediately after the Italian occupa- tion of Eritrea in 1685. Even in their | present penetration into Ethiopia the Italians pay cash as they go. War (Continued From First Page.) more than 100,000 warriors of his own. The troops were concentrated behind the Kindonemiret Range of moun- | tains south of Makale. In the moun- tain fastnesses, which the Italians have to penetrate in their south- ward drive, cliffs rise precipitously as high as 11,000 feet. 7,000 in Defense Force. Italian scouts confirmed the re- | ports from Addis Ababa. Land and | airplane scouts reported the concen- | tration under Seyoum was near Amba | Alaji, some 30 miles south of Makale, the caravan center of Northern Ethi- opia, now held by the Fascist in- vaders. In this defense force are 7,000 of | the Emperor's imperial guard, sent | from Addis Ababa. | The concentration of troops, the ! warfare, the tenseness created by the Afro-European crisis—all gave a touch of irony to the observance of Arm- istice day in most European nations. In Italy—which observes its Arm- istice day November 4, the day of the | separate armistice and peace with Austria in 1918—the day was given over to celebrating the birthday an- niversary of King Victor Emanuel. Except for two appearances by Mussolini, it was Victor Emanuel's day —an unusual thing in the regime of | 4he Fascist dictator. Suffers Cuts and Bruises in Acci- dent in East Potomac Park. Miss Margaret Masters, 21, of 1209 Clifton street, suffered cuts and bruises and possibly a hip fracture yesterday when thrown from her horse | in East Potomac Park when the an- imal shied at a bicycle lying on the ground. She was taken to Emergency Hos- pital by Park Policeman M. K. Rasp- berry. X-rays were to be taken to determine the extent of her injuries. Another young woman, Miss Ger- trude Merimer, 24. of 1406 Twenty- first street, a member of the White House clerical force, suffered an ankle injury late yesterday when she caught her toe in the sprocket wheel of a bicycle while riding around the Tidal | Basin. X-rays were to be taken to, determine whether the ankle was broken. E — Chinese (Continued From First Page.) includes virtually all Japanese resi- dents of Shanghai. ° | Repeated assurances by Japanese officials that no military measures were contemplated to force settlement of| the issue served, however, to quiet somewhat the nervousness in the ad- ! jacent Chinese district of Chapei. Japan'’s consular spokesman asserted investigations indicated ‘strongly that Nakayama was slain in the demilitar- ized native quarter Saturday as & Chinese demonstration against the presence of Japanese bluejackets. | Chinese officials insisted, however, | that the assailant had not been provi | to be Chinese, and asserted evidence indicated that the slayer was garbed similarly to the slain marine, who was not in uniform and wore foreign clothes. Ultimatum Is Denied. i Japanese and Chinese sources alike denied reports that a formal Japanese | ultimatum would arise fro mthe inci- dent. | A Japanese naval spokesman ex- pressed gratification at the “sponta- neous co-operation of Chinese au- thorities,” pledged -on four separate occasions immediately after the shoot- ing, but asserted nevertheless: “We are concerned lest the incident seriously affect Sino-Japanese rela- tions.” The Japanese Marines reduced the scope of thelr operations, but con- tinued to guard the district about the scene of the slaying.
