(Editor's note: James A. Mills,
vet era n A ssocl at el Ire f orrl r n
staff writer, was the first AmtT
Irao newspaperman to fly over the
southern front In the Italo-Kthi-oplan
war. In the following dis
patch he describes the dramatic
trip.)
By James A. Mills

Press)
ADDIS ABABA. Nov. 22.--1 have
jiist completed a 700-mile flight over
the southern front, penetrating two
thirds of the way Into Ogaden prov
ince right to the battle lines and
south to Daggah Bur.
During the outgoing and return
flights, my plane paralleled Emperor
Halle Selassie's giant, single -motored
ship for parts of the Journey, while
he was making his first visit to the
war zone.
Ras'Nasthu, Ethiopian commander,
ln-chirf on the southern front, and
his aide, Wehib Pasha, former general
of the Turkish imperial army and
Dardanelles hero, warned me of the
danger of being shot down by Ital
ians. I flew over Gorrahei, which the
Italians occupy, flying sufficiently
high to outdistance Italian anti-aircraft
fire.
(iorralu'l Bnmhed Oall.v
From there, I flew to Daggah Bur,
150 miles northeast of Gorrahei.
which is bombed daily by the Ital-
i ..j i..po n .11 Kern inn mill
farther to the northeast and general , 1
Vifiorfniiartor for th tftrilonlan SOUth- P
em armies.
The population of Daggah Bur,
mistaking my plane for an Italian
craft, fled the city.
"Your flight Is a highly hazardous
one," said Bas Naslbu. "because the
unlettered natives know only Italian j
planes. They will undoubtedly mis- j
take your machine for an enemy piano j
and may attempt to shoot you down. 1
"I advise you to fly at the maxi
mum speed of 200 ml!s sn hour,
maintaining the utmost height In or
der to avoid anti-aircraft guns and
rifle fire."
Within a half hour I was flying ,
over Daggah Bur. where Dr. Robert
W. Hockman has the only American
field hospital In Ethiopia.
The stars and stripes fly proudly
from Dr. Hockman's tents, warning
the Italians that they must refrain
from bombing this remote refuge.
Impossible Tft Land
Owing to the lack of an airfield
nd the presence of anti-aircraft
equipment, it was Impossible to land,
but I could plainly discern stretcher
carriers carrying wounded to Doctor
Hockman's hospital, which Is now the
southermost outpost of the Ethiopian
army.
Plying thence toward Gorrahei. I
cotild discern no large bodies of either 1
Ethiopian or Italian troops. This ap
parently proved most of the Italian
activities thus far have been confined
to air bombing and tank attacks.
Indeed, 90 per cent of the wounded
In Jijiga and Daggah Bur hospitals
consist of air bomb cases, most of
them civilians, many of them women. !
I found no gas cases whatever,
which Indicated the allegation thai
MuFsolint was using chlorine or mus
tard gaa was a pure myth
South of Daggah Bur 1 was. shown
fragments of several Italian tanks
which the Ethiopians captured and
vrecked. The Ethiopians claimed they
beheaded all occupants as an example
of the fate they said awaited other
Italians attempting to rob Ethiopia
of Ita independence.
Inhospitable Land
The whole vast Ogadcn war zone
Is a barren, desolate forbidding waste
with only scattering human habita
tions. For thousands of square miles, the
Inhospitable and unproductive Af
rican plain Is covered with cactus,
brush and brambtes reminding one of
the wildest parts of the western
United States.
Everywhere I landed in the eight
hour flight through the war zone. I
found unbounded enthusiasm for the
emperor.
"Now that we have seen him en the
actual battlerront, we know he will
be as great In war as in peace and we
are sure he will lead us to victory
like Menelck." was one expression.
The name of Halle Selassie was on
everyone's lips. It was clear that the
emperor's visit stimulated the morale
of his troops.
All seemed Impatient to face the
blnrkrhlrt. j
One hardy warrior said:
"We are tired of the silly air bomb
ings by Italians, which are not a real
man s way of fighting.' We want to
fight the Italians hand-to-hand a
ral soldiers. That's why we tackled,
half a dozen Mnks armed with ma
chine guns while wo-had only rifles
and swords."
WTiea production control contracts
in Jackson county, under tho four
year term starting next year, will be
"considerable leas" than undiT the
one-year term, according to Couiuy
A-Jent Robert G. Fowler.
Today la the final date for filing of
new contracts, and unless there ts a
last hour spurt, the number will be
less for the 1936-1939 period. In 1935,
there were 84 wheat control contracts
In the county.
Any decline is attributed by the
county agent to the fact that Jack
son county wheat growers need their
(rops for feed, and not to dlssatls
fatcoln with AAA provisions.
Establishment of a pctato cod 3 ron
rrol committee, in accordance wt-.h
the potato control code, effective De
cember 1, la the next federal activity
to claim the attention of tne county
agent's office. Preliminary papers
covering the potato plan nave been
leceived from Washington, D. C.
The potato law provides that any
lerson raising more than five bushels
of pottaes Is subject to the law.
Most of the potato groxors of the
county come under this ruling. There
ire a numbe ro f ex tensive grower
in the Central Point dUtrt.'t. and
many small growers throughout the
county.
It Is expected that the machinery
for the observance and enforcement
of potato code will be set up in a few
waaks.

The best international authorities
here would not be surprised if the
whole Anglo-American far eastern
policy were reopened and perhaps re
organized suddenly one of these days.
The latest north China develop
ments are considered of far more im
portance than the European situa
tion. The passive aloofness policy
does not seem to be satisfactory to
many officials here. At the same time,
they do not seem to favor any par
ticular new policy. ,
It may or not be significant that
the decision to send Phillips was
