RIFT IN ETHIOPIA
HELD DUE TO OIL
Zeal for Acquisition of VAL

Notes to Geneva.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
GENEVA, December 27.-Oil-
esteemed as a lubricant for everything
except international relationship
peared likely last night to increase the
friction between Italy and Ethiopia.
Zeal for acquisition of valuable oil
fields was seen here as one of the fac
tors likely to complicate the dispute as
Rome and Adds Ababa added two
more notes to the League of Nations
growing file of documents relating to
the disagreement.
The two latest communications gave
directly contradictory versions Of the
events along the Ethiopian Italian
Somaliland border which have embit-
tered the relations between the two
countries.
Situation Serious.
A message from the Ethiopian gov
ernment termed the situation in
creasingly serious and charged Italian
troops with occupying Ethiopian towns
Romes statement bluntly denied the
accusations and in turn asserted that
Ethiopia had committed 'an act of
flagrant aggression"
Meanwhile, reports received here
told of the discovery of oil districts in
the controverted area, which the
Ethiopian press was said to be de-
scribing as partly responsible for the
dispute.
League circles expressed concern
that conflicting claims for the much
coveted natural resource might aggra-
vate the situation A similar clash is
regarded by some observers as the
cause for prolongation of the Chaco
war between Paraguay and Bolivia.
Constructing Highways.
Ethiopia's renewed protest to the
League today charged Italian troops
with constructing motor highways
simultaneously with their alleged in
vasion of Ethiopian territory. The
Italian advance, the complaint said,
was moving from Wardair toward Ado
and Gerlogubi in Ethiopia.
Although Ethiopia refrained from
appealing 10 UIS League ullutT d utll-
mite article OF the covenant, officials
expected that such an appeal ulti-
mately would be made.
Italy, in It's message. emphatically
denied ANY intention on our part Of
taking the initiative in military opera
tions in Ethiopia
Paraguay May Accept Terms.
Pessimism generally was expressed
over the possibility that Paraguay
would accept the Leagues plan for
termination of the hostilities in the
Chaco boreal Paraguayan victories,
it was pointed out, have placed its
forces in an extremely advantageous
position, which the Bolivians assert
will give them possession Of the oil
regions.
Meanwhile, the League received a
formal protest from Persia against
Iraq allegations that Persian forces
had swept across the frontier.
Iraq mad appealed to the League,
saying the situation threatened to
disturb peace.
Persia's repiy said she would at
tend the session of the League Coun-
Gil next month to present her views
on the Iraq protest.

Drunken Driving
Is Increasing In
State AS Whole

R~aleigh.-Drunken driving is
steadily increasing over the state'
as is reckless and careless driving,
despite the efforts of the highway
patrol to bring about a decrease in
these offenses, according to Cap
tain Charles D. Farmer, command
er of the patrol During Septem-
Der the highway patrol made SO
arrests for drunken driving, which
represents only a very small per-
centage Of the total, since these SO
were only the ones out of 100000
drivers that came under observa-
ton of the Sc highway patrolmen.
In addition to these SO drunken
drivers arrested, there were IS
automobile accidents ascribed dir
ectly to drunken driving.
No arrests have been made by
patrolmen for drunken driving
either preceding Or following re-
cent football games, however, Cap
tain Farmer pointed out, although
The agrees that there has been as
much if not more drinking at foot
ball games this year than W be-
lfore. The reason for this, Captain
Farmer believes, is that those who
go to the football games know the
highway patrolmen r on duty
and that they will be arrested il
they attempt to drive while drunk
AS a result, they either get one ii
the party who does not drink tt
drive or employ a chauffeur Il
drive for them.
I'VE have been noticing an in
creasing number of cars going t;
and from the football games ii
which the driver is apparently thu
only sober person in the party, Oh
with colored chauffeurs to do thu
driving" Captain Farmer said.
The increase in the amount Of
reckless, fast and careless driving
lis attributed to the large number
of new and faster cars on the road
during the past few months anc
the desire of the owners or driver,
to "step on the gas and see wha,
they will do, Captain Farmer said

Pooling OF All Rail
Box Cars Proposed

by the pool to meet fixed costs of
ownerships and the cost Of repairs
and operating expense of the pool
would be ]pro-rated among parti-
cipating railroads on the basis Of
car mileage.
The pool would operate through
"a central office which probably
would be in Washington with dis
tribution districts having division
headquarters at:
New England at Boston; east
ern, Cleveland; southeastern, At
[lanta; western, Chicago, and south
western, St. Louis.
1t was estimated that there were
100000 box cars meeting the
pool requirements. The proposal
iby the co-ordinator suggested that
the railroads voluntarily agree to
the arrangement. However, it was
added that, should it become nee
essary for the co-ordinator to issue
an order or for congress to pass a
law requiring such a pool, some
minor changes might be necessary
i'm the plan.
Cars received or sent to Cana
dian or Mexican lines would be
handled on a per diem basis, and
those sent to non-pool lines, short
lines, and switching lines would be
charged for at the rate of 81 a day
Each railroad would arrange for
maintenance of its cars, although
such maintenance would be the OBJ,
legation of the pool management.
Running repairs would be made
by the holding railroad at its most
convenient and economical repair
point.

Whether it will become sufficient
lily serious to merit. a radical change
in AAA cotton policy was not dis
'cussed although one official sug-
gested that if worse came to worse
the United States might eventually
remove all restrictions and subsi-
die exports.
1.-The government would loose
as much as if it had to carry on
relief rolls all the families who
would be deprived of their liveli-
hood if a large part Of the export
market were lost" he said.
The discomforting prospect re-
lates to possible conditions two or
three years hence and apparently
leaves Secretary of Agriculture
Henry A. Wallace unrufled.
Confronted with figures showing
that exports of cotton during
August and September declined AZ
per cent from the corresponding
months last year and were 2S per
cent under the average for that
period during the 10. years ended
1892, Wallace indicated a prefer
'ence to attribute the loss to tenn
porary Embellishments rather than
to domestic control policy or to
conditions threatening permanence.
He minimized the possibility of
the United States losing its DOM
mating position.
A number of officials said there
was room for concern in the fact
that the new cotton areas apparent
ily were being developed abroad.
This is particularly true of Brazil.
Wallace observed however that in
creased Brazilian production pro-
badly was due to low coffee prices.
When coffee brings better returns
cotton planting will become cores
pondingly less popular there, he
believes.

task of providing cars for all rail-

Not only cars owned by the rail
roads, but. also those owned BY

would be to acquire ownership Of
