MISSING GIRL

Distracted parents of 15-year-old
Alva Carmen Thyrring, missing
from her home at AIT Oglethorpe
st. N. W., since yesterday morn
ing, appealed to police for aid TO-
day in locating their daughter.
Alya is a Second-year student
at Central High School. She left
home shortly after $50 a. m. yes
terday presumably on her way
to school. Viggo Thyrring, the
girls father, maintained an all
night vigil for Alva.
The father told The Times:

Is visiting q girl friend and just

Mr.. Thyrring is an accountant.

might have "got their man." Mr..

How the killers managed to pick

puzzled police for some time.

ITALIAN ENVOY
SPIRITED FROM
Adds ABABA
Count Vinci, Attache
Whisked Onto Train
Bound for Border
BY H. r. KNICKERBOCKER
Copyright. 1898, by International
News ServIcel

Adds ABABA, Oct. ga
comedy of diplomatic errors ended
today when the Italian minister,
Count Luigi Vinci-Gigliucci, and
his military attache, Captain Cal.
derini, were smuggled into a train
by Ethiopian authorities and
whisked out of Adds Ababa for
Djibouti so quickly that they were
unable to communicate with the
outside world.
Stay Gets Precedent
Count Vinci, whose strange
conduct in remaining here after
the Ethiopian government hand
ed him his passports and asked
him to leave created diplomatic
precedent, was taken early to-
day from the private home of
RaS DeSta Demtu where he had
been held virtual prisoner since
his refusal to get out of the
country.
He and his military attache
were taken swiftly to the sta
ton where they were kept under
heavy guard in the customs room
until the train was completely
beset by passengers.
A special coach with drawn
blinds, was stationed opposite the
customs room.
The train, made up further
down the station, was then backed
into the customs division, Count
Vinci and Calderini were rushed
aboard, and it steamed out so sud-
denly that those without tickets
who had been saying good-by
were forced to travel to the next
station.
Last Consul Out
On the train, but not with
Count Vinci, whose special coach
was guarded by IA soldiers and an
officer, were the German minister,
Hans Kirchholtes, and his wife,
bound on q weekend trip.
Count Vinci's departure, which
when heralded a fortnight ago,
created q worldwide sensation,
today awakened little local inter
est, nobody but journalists and
photographers possessing suffi-
cient interest to see him off.
The excuse for the long stay
by Count Vinci was that he de-
manded to await the arrival from
the interior Of the last Italian
consul.
The last one, from Megalo, ar
rived yesterday at Mojjo, where
Count Vinci's train will pick him
up today.

In accordance with this, finan-

George in a privy council meet
ing at buckingham Palace.
Orders Are Inclusive
The expectation to italy Of arms,
explosives, and other war ma
terialS as already listed by the
League is Immediately prohibited.
Other sections Of the orders deal
with the prohibition Of italian i'm
ports, with the exception of gold
and silver bullion, and the exporta-
ton Of raw materials such as
metals, rubber, horses, mules and
camels-all Of which can be used
in war.
The president Of the board OF
trade is given authority to enforce
these sanctions when the League
fixes the date.
In accordance with the fin
ancial sanctions, the Treasury is
given the power to prohibit
credit to italy.
The tone of the governments

Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin,
was far firmer towards Italy
than the conciliatory speeches

made in the House Of Commons.

Mr.. Baldwin openly referred
to the possibility of naval
