Marshal Emilio de Bono, the Italian commander at {he beginning of the Ethiopian war, confirms in his book that the Italians were the aggressors, some- thing that was apparent to all from the very beginning. Mussolini did everything to goad the Ethiopians to Haile Selassie was too shrewd and _al- lowed Il Duce to start activities in the hope the League of Nations would then inter- vene in his behalf. The rest is history. is Within a short time there will be an insistent demand for real estate in Key West and that has a tendency to enhance the value and the price. It is advisable if you have property for sale to set a definite price and then stick to it; don’t raise the! price as soon as you have a prospect. The most specious argument that is often ad- vanced is: If it is worth that much to him, it is worth that much to me. On that basis no sale would ever be made, it is self evi- dent. So do not raise the price with your blood pressure every time you have a pros- pect intow.

ADMITS AGGRESSION The publication of the memoirs of Marshal Emilio de Bono, the Italian com- mander at the beginning of the Ethiopian war, has caused some interest because in his book he frankly shows that Italian ag- gression wag responsible for the conflict. De Bono reveals that he and Mussolini agreed on the war in the early part of 1933 and began making preparations for it. He gives the telegram he sent to Mussolini saying that Emperor Haile Selassi would not attack and that the Italians must begin the warfare. This telegram shows that the Italians had hoped that their threats would lead the Ethiopian Emperor to some aggressive action against the threatening armies, which would give Italy an opportunity to claim that the Ethiopians started the war. When this plan failed the Italians then proceeded to put the war into operation themselves. Hy Some speculation has resulted as to| why the Italians allowed Marshal de Bono } to reveal these damaging facts. | answer so far apparent is that Mussolini wanted to have the credit for conquering Ethiopia for his Fascist regime and not al- low the world to believe the Italian reg- ular army should have the credit. WHERE HAS THE “BONUS” GONE? About seventy per cent of the sol- dier’s bonus bonds had been presented for | redemption as September began, meaning that about a billion and a quarter dollars had passed into the hands of the men who served the country during the World War. | What part has this. sum of money played in keeping business moving cating | the summer? Nobody knows, because no- body can tell how the veterans spent the money, or even if they spent it at all. Some may have gone into savings, some on past indebtedness and some, as many as- sert, into new automobiles. Without accurate-information every- body is entitled to a private theory as to where the “bonus” money went. FIGHTING “BANDITS” When Japan sent “her armies into Manchukuo, the fighting was officially de- scribed as a drive ‘to elean up the “ban- dits.” Of course, the bandits were natives attempting to defend their country. _ Recent news from’ Addis Ababa reveal that six months after the Italians occupied Hailie Selassie’s capital, Italian troops are moving to complete the conquest of Ethiopia. About one-fourth of the country remains unoccupied and numerous Ethio- pians are fighting the invaders bitterly. It is interesting to observe that Italian accounts of these battles invariably list the natives as “bandits.” aaa aaeaeeeDe Dae ewA Ni } that The only i Captain and Mrs. R. W.
