ITALIANS INFLICT
HEAVY LOSSES ON
(Continued from tsge One)
munitions of war, the president
warned Americans they traveled the
ocean on Italian or Ethiopian ships
at their own risk.
With these 'proclamations,' the
president fulfilled his obligations
under the recent congressional neu
trality legislation. But he went
further. He declared Americans who
engaged in "transactions of any
character" with either Ethiopia or
Italy "do so at their own risk.
This Is a distinct reversal of
American policy. In the past, the
United States has always maintained
the right of neutral citizens to
"freedom of the seas' for commerce
with belligerents.
The presidential declarations the
first in which any official quarter
directly stated a state of war exists
between Italy and Ethiopia were
happily received by League of Na
tions protagonists In Oeneva.
Effects Italy Only
They looked upon the American
stand as a form of sanctions.
Inasmuch as Ethiopia has no mer
chant marine, the effect of the
American policy falls on Italian
ships.
In Ethiopia, the first major bat
tle of the war a war without the
benefit of a declaration of war on
either side was In the making.
Aduwa has fallen. The main Ital
ian army of 75,000 on the northern
front occupied this northern met
ropolis yesterday.
It was here that, 40 years ago,
the Ethiopian warriors slaughtered
the Italians in Rome's first con
quest of Ethiopia.
The first Italian columns occu
pying Aduwa brought along a mon
ument, erected It In the center ot
the town. -On It were the words,
engraved weeks ago in anticipation
of the capture: "To the fallen
heroes of Aduwa."
Prepare For Big Battle
While consolidating their position
about Aduwa on the plateau along
the rim of vast mountainous area
the Italians were prepared to meet
the main column of Halle Selassie's
warriors.
The Ethiopians were some twenty
miles away. The battle may come
at Makale, 30 miles to the soutb
and east of Aduwa.
The Italian army In the north
was divided. The right column was
entrenched about Aduwa. The left
held Adlgrat, to the east, which
also fell to the Mussolini legions.
An Italian communique, distrib
uted in leaflets dropped from air
planes, declared the northern Tlgre
province, of which Aduwa is the
metropolis, had been lost to the
Ethiopians.
"I assure , you the Italians have
no hatred against the Tigre people,"
the leaflets said. "Their enmity is
only against the government of Ad
dis Ababa."
Leaflets were dropped on monas
teries and churches, declaring Halle
Selassie had abandoned the Christ
ian churches. The Italians reported
results from such phychologlcal
maneuvers.
Priests Submissive
As the armies passed through
tribal towns, civilians with priests
at their head carrying crosses greet
ed the troops and dipped the crosses
to the ground as the sign of sub
mission. Tigre province, to the north, lies
against the Red Sea Italian province
of Eritrea.
From all indications, Mussolini's
plan Is to join Eritrea with Italian
Somaltland. Between the two, on
the coast, are French and British
Somallland. To unite them, the
Italians would have to take a strip
of Ethiopia from the south to the
north along the eastern border.

The Italian column In the south
(In the desert province of Ogaden).
was approaching from Italian Som
allland today and was ncarlng Oer
logubl, about 60 miles from Walwat,
scene of last winter's border dis
pute which precipitated the current
crisis.
Ethiopians Mass
The Ethiopian warriors were also
massing In the desert province.
In the eastern area, the Italians
have a force near Mt. Mussa AH,
Just across the Eritrea border and
up against the boundary of French
Somallland.
The advance of the Italians from
the south, north and east was look
ed upon In Addis Ababa as In ac
cord with Ethiopian strategy.
The plan of Halle Selassie was '
to fall back In the center, let the I
Italians take their revenge for their
defeat of 40 years ago, let them ad-1
vance through the southern desert
and then engulf them with hun-1
dreds of thousands of black warriors, j
The departure of Halle Selassie I
to the front, probably the northern '
front at the first, appeared lmmln-1
ent. It was said the emperor woulo j
personally lead a force of 120.000 i
Into the northern area within two j
weeks. j
"It took the Italians three days !
to take little Aduwa," one of the!
emperor's aides declared. "It would
take them 30 years to take Ethto-1
pla."
Peace Rumor Heard
In the midst of these prepara
tions, the rumor of an offer ot
peace terms by Italy created a short
lived flurry of excitement. The ru
mor arose In Addis Ababa.
An aide of the emperor, asked it
the report was true, aald "Almost."
In Rome, however, government of
ficials said peace terms were farth
est from their thoughts.
One official declared: "Our cam
paign has Just started."
Italy celebrated the victory of 11
Duce's Roman legion In the north
ern Tlgre province.
Thousands of the fasclstl paraded
with banners: "Aduwa Italian again
. . , Aduwa Italian forever . . .
Aduwa today, Addis Ababa tomor
row." Feelings of gloom, fears of Euro
pean war, prevailed In other capi
tals of Europe, particularly London.
British Melancholy
The British press forecast the arms
embargo against Ethiopia would be
lifted when the cabinet meets Wed
nesday. British circles were taking
a melancholy attitude toward the
proceedings at Geneva, especially
with the action of Premier Laval
in soft-pedaling the question of se
vere sanctions. London felt the
league would adopt only Innocuous
financial sanctions.
The principal French development
was the ordering of colonial -troops
from Somallland to leave for Derl
dawa, 100 miles In the Ethiopian
Interior. The troops will guard the
Franco-Ethiopian railroad center
there. The road runs from Djibouti,
French Somallland, to Addis Ababa.
It Is Ethiopia's only railroad to the
outside world.
In Paris, the directors of the Suez
Canal company convened to con
sider a report of International law
yers. This report, it was authori
tatively understood, concluded that
the canal would not be closed to
Italians In the event the League ot
Nations Imposed sanctions against
Italy.
The canal is a commercial ven
ture. Britain owns 44 per cent of
the stock. The bulk of the rest Is
held by French nationals.
. An attitude for quick peace In
Ethiopia prevailed In Paris. The In
fluential newspaper, Pelt Parlslen.
appealed to the league to continue
negotiations, .
For some time, the view has pre
vailed among foreign observers Mus
solini would be ready to talk terms
if and when he occupied sufficient
of the border territory In Ethiopia
to appease the colonization senti
ment at home.
