Surveying Crew Is
Nearing Plentywood

The road surveying crew which
has been mapping out a route from
the Daniels county line East is now
nearing the city limits of Plenty
wood.
The route follows along the
Great Northern right-of-way prac-
tically the entire distance. although
several railroad crossings will be
avoided by remaining on the north
side OF the track all the way from
Redstone.
Those who have been boosting
the north route have practically
conceded that the new road when
built will follow the survey which
is now nearing completion.

putting the disbursement above
$1,000 900.
In addition to some $4,000 employees
in the executive establishments, those

turnout in the shopping district was
in prospect this afternoon.
The local pay roll was calculated
on the basis of that nationally, which
in October-the last date available
amounted to nearly $102, 900 in
the old line and New DEAL groups.

to make their plans for the holidays

Aggression Charged, but No
Action by League Is
Requested.
By the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
GENEVA, December 15.-The gov
ernment's formal protest against Italy
was published today by the League Of
Nations. revealing charges of Italian
aggression" in Abyssinia and calling
the attention of the League Council
to the gravity Of the situation"
Documents attached to the protest
added detailed confirmation of all the
Ethiopian charges. 1t was thought
possible in League circles that Italy
would answer the charges from Adds
Ababa Immediately.
The Ethiopian protest said that on
November % an Anglo-Ethiopian
commission investigating pastoral
lands in the Province of Ogaden was
prevented by an Italian military force
from continuing work when it arrived
at Ualual. 100 kilometers inside the
frontier.
Deny Provocation.
"On December 5, Italian troops with
tanks and military airplanes suddenly
and without provocation attacked the
Etheopean escort of the commission" Z"
the report said
It continued that AbySsinia had
protested on December 6, "and despite
this protest Italian military airplanes
three days later bombarded Ado and
Gerlogibi in the same province
1t said that Abyssinia had requested
arbitration and that the Italian
charge daffairs, disregarding the pro-
test, demanded indemnity, moral
reparation and declared that he did
not see how an incident of this char
acter could be submitted to arbitral
decision"
No Action Requested.
The Abyssinian protest made no
appeal for action under any article of
the League covenant.
However, it was considered probable
the situation would come before the
League Council when it assemblies
January IL in preparation for the Saar
Basin territory plebiscite two days
later.
Two frontier clashes between Ital-
ian and Ethiopian forces have been
the subject of sharp Italian represen-
tations to Adds Ababa the past two
months.
Italy accused the African troops of
precipitating battle last week when
they attacked the Italian garrison at
Ualual in Italian Somaliland. The
Ethiopian version was that the en-
counter occurred after Italian forces
penetrated rs miles into Abyssinian
territory.

YOUTH CONVICTED
IN PATR|C|DE CASE
Rockville Jury, After Record
Trial, Finds Lowell Hash,
%, Guilty..
Special Dispatch TO The star.

CpctldA OlopdtSI w hG ClhLs
ROCKVILLE. Md, December IS
Lowell Hash, 22-year-old Ounce Or
chard resident, was convicted of man
slaughter in the death of his father,
Edgar ]. Hash. by jury in the Mont
gomery County Circuit Court today.
Sentence was deferred.
The jury, which was given the case
at 2:15 o'clock this morning after the
longest continuous court session in the
county's history deliberated for Z
hours and 10 minutes before returning
its verdict at 9:25 am The max
imum penalty for manslaughter is 10
years in the State penitentiary.
Cousin Testifies.
Testimony of Addison Phipps, a first
cousin of the defendant, who struck
and fatally injured his 44-year-old
father with an iron pipe during an
alteration in a barn on the Hash
dairy farm at Ounce Orchard last
June, is believed to have played an
important part in the jury's decision.
Shortly before the case was given to
the jury, Phipps, employed by the
elder Hash at the time of the alterca-
ton, told the court that young Hash
struck his father while the latter was
seated on a milking stool and that the
father made no attempt to attack his
son, as claimed in the self-defense plea.
Backed in Part.
The defendant, whose testimony was
corroborated in part by his two broth
ers, said that his father grabbed q
metal stool he was using in milking
cows at the time and rushed toward
the son with the stool upraised as II
to strike him. Carried back by the
onslaught, the witness said, Lowell
Hash grabbed pipe and struck his
father several times, telling him.
Young Hash said Phipps was in a
nearby dairy room at the time of the
alteration and could not have seen
what transpired. Several witnesses
who testified that Phipps had since
remarked to them he did not see what
had transpired in the barn. also were
| presented.
Testimony also was introduced in
an effort to show that Phipps. who
was discharged by young Hash and
his mother three months after the
death of the elder Hash, has testified
against the defendant to revenge"
his dismissal.
Claimed Father Drinking.
Hash said that his father was
drinking at the time of the alteration.
He testified that he asked his father
which pasture he should use to turn
out the cows for the night and was
told by the latter that he didn't give
a damn" where they were put.
His father, the witness said, then
grabbed up milking stool, rushed
toward him and struck at him several
| times. He said that he believed his
| father, who had threatened both his
life and that of his mother on several
occasions, intended to kill him and
he seized the pipe and struck him over
the head. The elder Hash died in
the Montgomery County General Hos
pital later that night.
| The case went to trial yesterday at
1920 am. and was given to the jury
this morning after a 16-hour session,
which was halted only for brief inter-
missions and recesses for meals.
