So It's TTTELL brethren, the fat is poker parlance Benito Mussolini has called the bluff and raised the ante. The next move France and the League of Nations. According to press reports, an Italian bombing squadron attacked Adowa, last night, causing wide spread destruction and inflicting heavy casualties 1700 are reported dead and wounded. Frnm Rome comes official denial that any such attack took place. The same old army game I One side claiming one thing, the other side claiming something entirely different, and no one at this distance knowing just what is going on. IT is a pretty safe wager, however, that the report from Adowa is substantially correct. For this was the scene of Italy's humiliating defeat at the hands of Ethiopia forty years ago. It was a foregone conclusion that Italy would strike first, at this historic point, to feed the flames of militant patriotism and sweet revenge back home. The cold blooded slaughter, but the and old won't be. They will see in it, only deserved "revanche" after all these years and the washing away in blood of that blot on the national escutcheon. Thus Italy's honor is redeemed !" FURTHER evidence that this ia fiirnidhnH hv AfnRRnlini 'a Thumbing the marble balustrade with his clenched fist, shooting out his underjaw and showing the whites of his eyes, like a stampeding cayuse, Benito defied England, France and the League of Nations, and figuratively speaking vfircd a load of buckshot into the dove of peace. Sanctions or no sanctions, declarations of war or no declara tions of war, Benito intends to have his way, Italy has been denied long enough "her place in the sun." If need be II Duce and his armed legions, will take on the world, rather than give up their "will to power," their determination to shoot down the dirty heathen, and take over those fertile and uncultivated acres on the Ethiopian plateau for their very own. What Will the YES this puts it up to the League in no unccrtniu tonus. The members are pledged to oprose militant and unprovoked aggression, well the militant aggression has started, now what will they dol Presumably they will impose economic sanctions against Italy, as the first step. What will this mean! Well it may mean a number of things, and here we nnme to the nub of the present situation, as far as Italy and the League are concerned. In that speech delivered yesterday Mussolini in regard to sanctions declared : "To sanctions of an economic character, we shsll respond with the spirit of discipline, with sobriety, and with sacrifice." In other words II Duce will as an unfriendly act a cause for war sanctions will be en dured, not resisted by force. In view of what economic sanctions may involve, rather an extraordinary statement, and perhaps the key to just what is going on in Europe at the present time. For there is no doubt that England and France could impose an economic blockade against Italy, which would render a successful invasion of Ethiopia practically impossible. Italy litis no coal, no oil. In Africa her army is over- a thousand miles from her base of supplies. She could not properly supply her troops with food and ammunition, in face of a GENUINE eco nomic boycott on the part of the members of the League of Natins. BUT perhaps this economic boycott will NOT be genuine. Tliera nil a onnairlernhla neriod nf consultation between the time of England's first challenge, and yesterday's defiance hy the Fascist dictator. Would it be so surprising if during 'his period, France, England and Italy had come to a secret under standing t Hardly in view of Mussolini's complacent acceptance of the threat of economic sanctions. Of course this is only a guess. It may or may not be true or even near the truth. But there is this solid foundation for its probability. The world war was supposed to end secret diplomacy and usher in an era of open covenants openly arrived at. But it did nothing of the sort. Since the world war secret diplomacy has flourished, just as it did before. At one time Italy and France had an understanding that Italy would join with France against Germany and Austria, in case of a European war, and in return Italy would be given a free hand in Ethiopia. Just what has become of that under standing is not known, but it would not bo surprising, if it had been superseded by an understanding between France, Italy and England, that Mussolini would still be given a free hand in east ern Africa, that England and France to save the League from extinction would go through the motions of imposing sanctions; that Italy on her part would sec to it that such sanctions, mild in character, would not be resisted and thus, the extension of ftie hostilities in Ethiopia to Europe would be impossible. Entirely speculative of course, but if true, it would not be the first time a weak and defenseless nation, has been sacrificed on the altar of imperialistic ambition and the maintenance of the European balance of power.

DO HAVE A UI Bom yean ago X 'received a series of report from readers who declared they had been cured of ohronlc vari cose ulcer by ta.lt- tnxm&J ""JM:"-, ing the iodin ra tion I recommend for everybody. I couldn't see the rationale of It, and so alluded to it skeptically. Then a medical colleague Inform ed me that there waa merit in the Idea and that in deed his father. a physician, had treated many caaea of chronic varicose ulcer by giving the patients minimal doses of lodin over a prolonged period. He suggested that thLs tended to restore normal thyroid function, and that stimulated the natural healing proc ess. Still I don't know. But sup pose we test It out on a hundred guinea pigs. Human guinea pigs who have chronic, that is, long standing varicose ulcer. Especially those who have tried this and that remedy, may be even medical treatment, end when the ulcer failed to heal, conclude It is incurable. If a hundred ur more readers who qualify will send stamp ed addressed envelope a three-cent stamp, the complete .address (not City or "Local," and en envelope with stlckum on the flap I'l give them full particulars of the Jodln ration, and also general instructions on the care and dressing of the ulcer. In return these human guinea pigs must promise to write me again after three months trial of the treatment, a brief report of the results. A pos tal will do. The report must mention the condition chronic varicose ul cer give the duration of the trouble up to the time the iodin ration is be gun, and state whether healing has been obtained. Otherwise it la Just fuel for the automatic chucker. A lady writes that she has found a cure for pyorrhea, and she has been trying to Induce various companies to market her cure. She declares that the lodln ration has cured her of py- i orrhea from which she had suffered ! for many years j Oh, well, I am confident the lodln ration will do no harm In such cases, i If some can line up another hundred or more guinea pigs who haw pyor rhea and start 'em all off on the lodin ration, together with some general hygienic advice about the teeth ! NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O. O. McJntyre NEW YORK, Oct. 3. Washington Square remains one of the untouched 1 shrines of an older aristocracy that la, architecturally. On the north side stand atone gate- postA wun carved roosters ana sheep heads. The little band stand for weekly con certs has the weather stained look of antiquity. The beginning of a "Rooms for Rent" invasion, however. be gun and many believe another five years will change It into a Boarding House Row. The home in front of which David Graham Phillips was slain by a mad man la Just aa It waa at the time of ! the traeedy Through tiny slits In curtains or upstairs windows are glimpses 01 those white-haired slttlng-and-bed- room ladles who seem to spend their entire day gently rocking. On their mantles are framed pictures of sol dierly gallants, men they refer to fondly ss "The Colonel" or "The Ms J or." Washington Square has a lost air. a vague something that speaks of better days, brighter hopes. Somehow the shouts of children at play are not so loud. The vegetable hawkers do not cry so noisily. The metier Is tip-toe as though waiting to carry the corpse away. I saw a satiny old hunting dog crated In front of an express office today. He had been up In the Maine woods and was on his way back to Texas. One ear was a three-piece bit of fringe, slit by the slashes of a bob cat. A pencil -U Ice welt ran from his chf.it up almost to one hip, another trophy of the fray. A card tacked to his container read: "This is Menlo. a fighting fool. He'll die for any man who treats him decent." The mid -town bus terminals, which have slit arcades through Jostling blocks, offer almost as much excit ing gaddyap aa the big railroad term inals. More than 300 buses leave from one terminal alone and probably a to tal of 700 depart every 34 hours. Bus travelers are solid looking, the sort seeking comfort without frills. Callers are constantly yowling such far-away points as Miami, Los Angeles, Seattle and Montreal. I am told there Is easy comradeship among the buwrs and before getting beyond the city fringes all art generally conversing amiably. Bsck In Mansfield.

And he was JuM a gansling curt Tht Cupola, Krnesl Uetrinswaj's TLF MORE IODIS which I'll send them, we ought to be able to find out whether the lodln ration Is, particularly holpful for this common and obstinate condition. I am just as skeptical of this as I was of the cure of varicose ulcer. But what I don't know about these things wll fill some large books In a few more years. Incidentally, I hope no den tor will scold me for using a more scientific and perhaps more specific term for it, these guinea pigs would not know what I mean. Warning to all guinea pigs who contemplate volunteering for the test; If you try to bootleg any symp toms or if you ask for a diagnosis of your trouble you can't Join the class, and that's final. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Castor Beans Please Inform your readers that castor "beans" or seeds are poisonous to domestic animals as well as repel lant to rats and gophers. Friend lost a valuable bulldog from poisoning the dog ate Just two of the seeds which dropped off a castor plant in his yard. (A. J. C.) Answer That Is correct. Taken in ternally castor seeds or "beans" are powerfully cathartic and often eme tic. Two will purge with great vio lence, and three have produced fatal gastro-en teritls In man. 60 don't scatter these seeds about the premises to eradicate rats or gophers If you have a dog or other pet or any animal that may eat the seeds. Sweet Tooth I am very fond of sweets, custards, puddings, etc., and I even want a lot of sugar on my fresh fruit. But I have high blood pressure and am quite stout and I am supposed to cat much sugar. Any reason why I should not use saccharin instead? (M. A. K.) Answer You may safely use up to 5 grains per day of saccharin as a sweetener in place of sugar. But this wilt scarcely solve the problem. If you have an adequate dally Intake of vitamins, your craving for carbohyd rate will be moderated. You will be , satisfied with a reasonable amount of food.

Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS ( B1 IO news and little news on the day this Is written. The biggest news In the world, of course, is the threatened war in Ethi opia, and as to that a dispatch from Addis Ababa says: "Emperor Halle Selassie was report ed tonight to call for a general mo bilization of approximately two mil lion fighting men. "All that remained In the way of such action waa to determine from his representatives In Geneva whether the league of nations would fall In efforts to prevent an Italian attack." 1TTILI the league atop Italy? " Probably not, unless It Is pre pared to say to Mussolini: "If you hit Ethiopia, we'll hit you HARDER. The prospects of that being said" don't at the present moment appear good. THIS writer, incidentally, ts glad the United States Isn't bound by solemn agreement to say to Iltaly: "If you go to war with Ethiopia, we'll go to war with you." This country has a disturbing habtt of KEEPING Its. agreemente. In Eu rope, nations keep their agreements only when it is profitable for them to do so. f- THE league of nations was a beau tiful dream that could have got this country Into a lot of trouble. The New Deal Is another beautiful dream that CAN get this country Into a lot of trouble. Dreams, if they are to do much good for humanity, must be PRAC TICAL as well as beautiful. THIS big head7inecatches the eye: "Two Portland Killers Sought." The two kilters shot down a deputy sheriff when he challenged them on a lonely road apparently, It appears as these words are written, because of the Illegal shooting of a pheasant. Thus another fs added to the long list, here on the Pacific Coast, of of ficers shot down In the 'performance of their duay. 1 "70U may have read, in this column few days ago, figures Indicat ing that for each four murders com mitted in this country only about one murderer Is CAUHT and that only about one murderer out of EIOHTY is executed. If we caught and punished more murderers, there would be fewer of these cold-blooded killings. AND It Is highly probable that If government devoted more at tention to catching criminals, which Is clearly and plainly the business of government, and less attention to a tot of things which are clearly NOT the business of government, we would all be better off and government would be more highly respected.

BATTLING STARTS AS (Continued from t-aga One) the Italian air bombs at Ad'grat. No Warning Olven Ethiopian sources expressed the be lief the Inhabitants of Aduwa and Adlgrat were not warned by the Ital ians that the air attack waa coming Some Ethiopians said they believed the attack waa intended to Invite re prisals on Italians who stilt are :n Ethiopia In order to establish Justifi cation for an Italian conquest. Early In the day. Emperor Halle Se lassie proclaimed the general mobili zation of his 10,000.000 subjects.. When Vlncl leaves the country he will go out on a special train guarded by Emperor's troops armed with ma chine guns and rifles to prevent any possibility of reprisals by the Ethio pians who appear to be enraged by the bom b raid news against the Italian diplomat. The three American mission hospi tals here unfurled enormous Red Cross flags today while the United States legation put up Its largest American flag as warnings to bomb ing planes. Prepare for Air Raids Anti-aircraft guns, set up around the capital limits, fired practice bursts, using real bullets for the first time. Troops patroled the city. Ethiopian aviators were testing anti-aircraft guns on the edge of the city In ex pectations of an air raid. Many foreigners sought refuge In their legations while a number of citizens started for the hills. Americans here may seek, protec tion in either the British or the Ger man legations, since both of them are equipped with bomb-proof shelters. The city was quiet, but apprehen sive. The Emperor held a meeting of the crown council to determine the em pire's course of action in th light of the alleged Aduwa bombing. The report of the air bombing raid reached the capital while the Em peror was at p ayer in the Imperial chapel at dawn. Fear More Raids The news created fears there would be a similar raid against Addis Ababa. All day the inhabitants were seen glancing toward the sklea as though they feared a sudden swarm of air planes across the mountains, carrying a rain of gas bombs and high ex plosives. Engagements In different sectors of the northern and southern fronts were reported constantly, but they were not officially confirmed. Most of the Italians In the capital stayed off the streets. Some of them said they feared they might be In jured. But the Associated Press corres pondent encountered the Italian mil itary attache cashing a oheck at the bank. He was informed of the Aduwa bombardment report and replied: "Is it possible? It was renlly a sur prise." The Italian minister was walking In the garden of the Italian legation shortly before noon when the Associ ated Press correspondent Informed him that fighting already was re ported. Vlncl appeared decidedly nervous. He said he lacked all news from bis government. May Seek Vengeance Commandant Dothee of the Bel gian military mission was present at the Interview and suggested that the Ethiopians might seek vengeance as the result of reports that women and children had been killed by bombing, planes at Aduwa. Vlncl said he hoped there would be no reprisals. Asked If measures had been taken to protect the legation, the diplomat replied: "I am at this moment taking precautions." Emperor Halle jSelassle himself dis patched 200 Ethiopian soldiers to guard the legation, forbidding even Italians to enter because of the'dan ger of espionage plots. Vlncl stated: "I have no Instruc tions from Premier Muavilinl on how to proceed. I know nothing of Aduwa. I must await the arrival of the con sul ir aaents from the Interior before I can think of leaving' Serious Clash Reported The Italian consular employes are expected to arrive tomorrow from Dessie and those from Debj-a Markos may get In Saturday.

His home and office were open forums for people who knew what was going on. When he entered the White House, he changed all that. The re sponsibilities of lmmedlnto diltles closed up the old avenues. These have been reopened. Today Mr. Hoover is again one of the best Informed men In the country. He knows what is going on nearly every where. And he has added politics to the subjects in which he Is Interested. There probably are more erroneous stories going around the country about Mr. Hoover than about Presi dent Roosevelt. The latest Is that he has set up a gigantic political organi zation, secretly, and. when the right time comes, he will emerge as the next republican standard bearer. Nothing could be sillier. Anyone traveling across the cotin try, talking with republican and dem ocratic leaders, will fail to find any evidence of a Hoover political organi zation. There Is none. Even Mr. Hoo ver's best friends are talking of other candidates. He has contacts, but not aggressive personal support. Furthermore. Mr. Hoover Is one of the worst politicians who ever sat in the White House. He never ran for a public office, except the presidency. Essentially, politics Is not his game. To get the background of the Palo AHoan, you have to get a glimpse of his study. It has wide windows like a showcase, looking out over the Stan ford campus and at the Brown main tain ridge beyond, the peak of which is Mt. Diablo (The Devil). Strangely enough, It bears no resemblance to Mr. Roosevelt. There is a large stone fireplace into which Mr. Hoover casts cigar stubs. His desk is clean. No let ters He around from day to day. The Incoming mall Is large. Farmers and other people who do not know him write of their experlencfs and troub les. Prominent business men and poli ticians communicate with him also and always look him up when on the coast. They are served oranee Juice and a cigar. They find him looking ten years younger than when he left the White House, warmer, more friendly, smiling, and, believe It or not. taking a humorous view of some situations. None of these visitors, and. In fact, no living person here or elsewhere hns been told what he Intends to do In the next campaign. But If he has anything In his sleeve. It certainly does not rattle.
