And he Is the man | who collects and pays, t The Scottish major who was for| warding guns and bullets for the | Ethiopian army assured me that Ethiopia will have all the arms she will need. "It looks like war, and Mussolini will not be happy until he starts It " he commented. "II Duce was never more than a private soldier, and for all I know, perhaps he was only an orderly to an Italiau officer," he said, as he balanced a portion of Egyptian sweets 011 his fork. 1 do not think Mussolini is consulting the high command of the Italian regular army. If he did, he would not talk so big. He is feeding his Italians with plenty of big talk, but the poor Italian who is cheering the dictator's bombast realizes very little what he will be up against when he goes to Ethiopia. No European power ever attempted to conquer an Asiatic or African backward country in the way M*usbolini is intending to do it. Britain conquered India, but India was made up of a score of fighting native princes. Britain first backed one prince, then another, finally Inducing them all to come under her benevolent rule. The Indians of today may not consider the British rule benevolent, but Britain did not enter India with sword in hand. \\ hen Africa was being despoiled by Britain, France, Belgium, Germany, Spain and Portugal," my Scotch friend went on, "it wasn't by accident that these nations kept clear of Ethiopia. In the past, Britain cast covetous eyes on Ethiopia, but the nut was too hard to crack. France clung to the Red Sea. Italy once tried it, and had her lesson. The Moslems swept clear to Central Africa-,- but skirted Ethiopia." "But my dear major, what about the 300 aeroplanes, tanks, modern machine guns and high velocity cannons?" I asked. "Aeroplanes, poison gas and high velocity Cannons are all right if your adversary has a Berlin, London or Paris to bomb;?You. mu?t not? frxT-a-atthat Ethiopia's biggest city has a population of 110 more than 6,000. Addis Ababa, the capital, is only 40 years old. It will take more Italian aeroplanes and bombs to destroy Addis Ababa than the city is worth in pounds and shillings," he lfeughed. "And I pity the poor Italian pilot who will lose his way in the uncharted Ethiopian skies and drop in a hutland when the men have gone to war and the women are attending to the fields. I would not like to be at the mercy of these women." "But, major, in the last analysis,] don t you think a well-organized western army can eventually wear down the Ethiopian defenses?" I put In. | "Ninety-eight per cent of the Ethiopian defenses have been bestowed by nature," he said gravely. "Mussolini's greatest, unsoldlerly, unmilitary. blunder will be to put 300,000 men In Africa, as he eventually threatens will be done. The Ethiopian war will not be ? stand-up' out}. The Ethiopians w!!l retreat 300 miles, Inula# the Italians mtob-'ui masse over the desolate country. Italian uewapapers will print searoheadu." The nation at bom? will celebrate the victory, liut that will be all, Mubbolini'b troopb will bo advancing to thy moat terrifying task any uulion hua ever attempted, "There are throe ways to attack Ethiopia. One, from thy oabt, through Duanuakilland. Anothur uci'ohm Bomalllund. And the third, by the northeastern corner. "We are convinced that the major Velocity of the llallau forces will be undertaken from tile northeast oorner. 'I hey will reach Adowa, where 40 years ago, the Italian army under Colonel Huratieri was massacred by the late Emperor Menelik." "Hut, according to Mussolini, Menelik had 100,000 men against Haratlorl's 4,000," I said. "That is one of the Italian lies. Menelik had in all 60,000 men under arms in those days. He engaged Haratieri'H 13,000 trained men with 8,000 bayonets. Every year the Italians are increasing the number of Mcnclik's soldiers and decreasing the Italian numbers. "Over uplands the ltulians will reach Adowa in slow moving masses. Today Adowa is made up of a few huts. From Adowa to Addis Ababa is another long march. If the Italian armies keep moving in lurge masses, they will encounter insurmountable difficulties in keeping their men fed. Water will have to be brought front behind the Italian lines. From then on nature will do Its work. Tropical fevers, malaria and dysentery will decimate the ranks of the unwieldly masses. "An official attached to the French railway at Jibuti told me that by the first of August over 40,000 Italian soldiers bad been attacked by dysentery." ?"A heavy casualty even before the war has started!" I commented. '"I he Ethiopians are not suvagos," my friend went on, "but they are cruel. They are cruel to their slaves, j Their laws are cruel. Their cruelty becomes ferocious and beastly when dealing with strangers. The western mentality cannot comprehend the depths to which the Ethiopians can sink In dealing with an enemy. They would not hesitate an hour to turn Addis Ababa into a Babylonia as soon as they saw the enemy approaching. Capitals and cities mean nothing to them. In the past they had other capitals, such as Dere Dawah, (iondar, Debra Tabor and Addis Salem. Just as soon as a town gets old the Ethiopians leave it and start another one." My supper companion spread a twofoot map of Abyssinia on the table. "See Harrar marked here. It is one of the principal cities in Ethiopia, you might say, one of the metropolises. But Harrar has scarcely a population of 5,000. and since the mobilization started. I wager you will not find 1,000 inhabitants there. "Since joining the Ethiopian army, I have been training myself day and night to forget the war tactics of the western front. During the great war. when the commander felt repeatedly that from the tactical point of view ho should evacuate or even retreat for miles, he had to act against his judgment for two reasons. One, the morale of the troops would be weakened; two, the morale of the folks back home would be weakened. "The Ethiopian tactics do not have to take morale into consideration. When the enemy approaches, the commander dissolves his army. It is just like letting the classes in a school out. They know where to meet again within a short time, a few miles away. "Your western aeroplanes will have to fly over Ethiopia in locust swarms. The Italians will have to spray?I am quoting a French mathematician soldier attached to the Ethiopian legation?20 billion tons of poison to make a chemical war effective. Machine guns are destructive If you have a mass target. But in Ethiopia, 1,000,000 men and as many women will be conducting a guerilla warfare against the low-moving, unwieldly Italian masses. "The Italians made another moral tactical blunder In conscripting native women for the army. The blunfler was especially telling when they made their levies on the women of Moslem tribes In their own Eritrea. A repercussion of the moral revolt rang throughout the whole of Central Africa. The Italian commander untied the Moslem native with the Abyssinian Christian. "You see, every great war must have a slogan, Britain Introduced, 'Save Belgium.' That slogan soon wore out. The British soldier who fought in Belgium, after a while, began to realize that to save Belgium was not worth tho lives of millions. A slogan effective must have a moral btftflf&round," my supper-friend philosophized. "Then came Wilson with his 'Save the world for democracy.' That defeated Germany. "The Ethiopian emperor's priest emissaries have ben going through the length and breadth of the land, which Is nearly as large as Prance ~r; ?. * - rr. und Simiu together, chanting the slogun, 'Die fret'.' ilut since tlie tynlematlc raping of Moslem women by tin* Italian troops, the slogan bus been 'Die in defense of the honor of your women.' That slogan has united us one nation the entire Central African natives "When some day the truth la told, and facta can be revealed through the strict Italian censorship, the world will learn that thouaanda of native levioa in Italian Africa have mutinied. slaughtered their Italian of* ttcera and inarched en muaau into Ethiopia. Tiie natives?Moslems and tribes with no religion?have been {muring out of Italian Africa into Sudun and Ethiopia. "Ethiopia la, even now, an uuchurtcd land. There are thousand of square mllea of vulleya that are pestlleutial holes which the native avolda and which have been the graves of many innocent explorers. "'In 1807, General Napier took Magdula with about 30,000 men. That la the maximum a European army of invasion should march. Hut Napier moved slowly, and he had to encounter only a few- isolated tribea. "A European army, operating lti a tropical, unexplored, unchurted country, must observe certain aauitury conditions very strictly, or within u week the whole force will bo Imperiled by the sanitary carelessness of Juat 0110 soldier. "The Ethiopian sun rises to 160 degrees, and while a native can march bare-headed, no westerner can stand It for five minutes. "I have been wondering what Mussolini and his military command are thinking when they talk about tanka. They would have to build at least 25,000 miles of roads through Ethiopia to make the tanks effective. A few of these "armored cars" came to a shameful end at Wal-Wal early In January. The Ethiopians observed the Italian tanks progressive across what they called their own country. They retired, collected their cattle, drove them across the path of the tanks and caused a stampede. The dust raised by the stampeding cattle rose havoc. At the height of the commotion thus raised, the Ethiopians marched to the tanks, stuck their rifles right into the peep-holes and captured two of the Italian tanks. "So far Mussolini has . been fighting his war by hot air and in Rome. He should summon 40 of the tank brigade who managed to escape and COUNT THEM FOR YOUR8ELF How Many Grain* in a Bushel of Corn, and on Other Small Grain? You need not believe'this, told by Eugene Ashecfuft, columnist of the Monroe, N. 0., Enquirer, and you can easily prove him right or wrong, by performing the sumo experiment for yourself. Ho says: Several weeks ago I had occasion to count the number of amall seed in a pound. There were slightly more than 40,000. Then 1 wondered how many grains there were in a bushel of corn. A good way to find out wns to count one ounce, multiply by 16, and again by 56, the number of pounds in a bushel of corn. There were ninety corn grains to an ounce, 1,440 to u pound and 80,640 in a bushel. There were 85 wheat grains to an once, 18,040 in a pound, and 780,240 In a bushel. If you doubt the foregoing as being exact-; count 'em yourself sometime. ask their advice as to how to light the Ethiopians," my friend laughed. "In penetrating into these regions, a European army must absolutely depend on native guides. Kitchener conquered Sudan, not with llritlsh soldiers, but with the aid of many friendly Egyptians who wanted to destroy the power of the mad Mullah in lower Egypt. . - "Have the Italian high command enough native guides? Even when they are friendly, native guides, Britisli colonial officers will tell you, are not always trustworthy. Forty years ago native guides led Colonel Haratieri to Adowa to exactly the place where Menelik wanted to meet him. "You can't invade Ethiopia successfully unless you have half the Ethio-. plans friendly ?o your cause." - "TYPE HIGH" "Type high" is an expression used in every printing; office. When a letter or an illustration in not "typo high" it does not print clearly. It is necessary for the printer to build up the low parts with a layer of paper or cardboard until they are brought up to the standard height of type. When this 1h done a clear print is secured. Sometimes the letter or the illustration is only a little below standard height, a few hundredths of an inch, so little that the eye cannot detect it, but no matter how little it is, a perfect print cannot be secured until the low spots are brought up to standard heigh.t. Wo often see men like that. To all intents and purposes they are good citizens, observing the law und living uprightly, but when a test comes, when the prussure is put on them, they back down or yield to wrong Influence und wrong d,osiro. They are not "type high." We find them in all walks of life, in high or low, among the officers of the law and among the . musses. As long as things roll along smoothly their low spots nevor reveal themselves but when temptation comes, with its easy money and the lure of fame und recognition, they break down. Their cheapness and shallowness und selfishness and shoddiness reveal thetpaelves. They do not register true, .'fhey are not "type high."?Lewlsvllle, Texas, Enterprise.
