SEVEN ITALIAN PLANES
CRASH-UP IN LANDING
Count Ciano in Making Report
Gives Cause of Rarefied At
mosphere Near Equator.

BY the Associated Press.
ASMARA, Eritrea, Tuesday, October
IS Delayed) Count Galeazzo Ciano.
aviation son-in-law of Premier Musso-
hni, said today seven Italian planes
have cracked up in landing.
This was caused, he said. by the fact
that in the rarefied atmosphere of
2,400 meters (about 1912 feet) near
the Equator the planes are obliged to
come down at higher speed than in
lower altitude, where the heavier air
supports the machines.
An air field will soon be established
in the occupied territory, he said,
which will permit flights farther into
the interior of Ethiopia.

tween the old and the new.
The people have been assured there
is no chance of any one finding new
gas against which they cannot be pro-
tected. Against the known bases they
will be given instruction in emergency
methods. which is to hold their breath
and walk into the wind away from
the drifting substance.
The train will go from Rome
throughout Southern Italy summoning
crowds with two great sirens to illus
trate how the air raid alarm should

Selasse Prohibits
Plunder by Troops
On Way to Battle
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Adds ABABA, October 19.-
Emperor Halle Selassie wiped out
today the 2,000-year-old tradi-
ton that soldiers have the right
to plunder villages while en- route
to the front or to seize animals,
foodstuffs and other commodi-
ties from farmers.
With q swift stroke of his
American fountain pen he signed
a new law under which all his
armies must pay for everything
taken except fodder, which still
must be furnished for war needs.
The Emperor also established
a fiat rate of 8 thalers for the
hire of each mule to be taken
to the front, regardless Of the
distance.
The DEGREES caused widespread
rejoicing among the peasants.

Laval Faces Test Today.

PARIS. October 10 R.-Premier
Pierre Laval hoped tonight he would
strengthen his hand in the Italo-
Ethiopian dispute by receiving a popu-
lar expression of confidence in tomor-
rows senatorial elections.
The new Left-wing popular front,
in its first test of voting strength. is
out to beat him and has a complete
list of candidates for the Seine de-
partment's 10 seats, including Marcel
Cachin, leader of the Communist
party, and two other Communists.
Lavals note to Great Britain, gen.
orally considered a favorable reply to
the British request for assurances of
naval aid If the British fleet is at
tackled by Italy while carrying out
sanctions against Italy, was expected,
however, to satisfy both Left and Right
groups in general.
A development following the note
was the report in high French circles
that there seemed little possibility
France would send any Of its war
ships to replace British units in the
Mediterranean.
Although the premier feared the
possibility of domestic trouble because
Of Frances position in the Italo-
Ethiopian conflict, he himself seemed
sure of keeping his seat in the Senate,
regardless of the outcome Of tomor-
rows voting in the Paris region. where
he Is a candidate from Aubervilliers.
British Fleet to Stay.
LONDON, October 10 @.-Al-
though European tension has greatly
lessened as a result of conversations
between Great Britain, France and
Italy, authoritative London sources
said today Britain will keep her huge
feet in the Mediterranean.
This, it was said, is because no
progress has been made toward So
luton of the main issue-the war in
Africa. 1t is possible, however, that
a few ships may later be removed
from Gibraltar as a conciliatory ges-
ture.
Premier Stanley Baldwin, in po-
itical speech, made direct appeal to
Rome to understand Britain's motives
in the present crisis.
The European atmosphere was
made clearer when Britain gave ia
vorable reception to a note from
Premier Laval, which was said to re-
move any previous misunderstanding
between the two countries. Contents
of the note were not announced, but
1t was assumed Laval assured Britain
that France felt bound under the
covenant to support the League and
thus support Britain.
A joint Anglo Italian communique
was issued on conversations in Rome
whereby an attempt was made to
clear up dangerous misunderstand-
ings.
The statement said Britain's atti-
tude was Gin no way determined by
its own interests" Informed sources
said it was hoped that tension "arti-
ficially created outside Geneva" would
therefore be relaxed.
Despite these developments, the
government here felt there had been
no progress toward peace between
Italy and Ethiopia.

Inside Stuff

Eddie Guest can't let the time
 slip away while he is on the air with the Household Hour of Mu- sical Memories. They've put a
 bold-faced clock at the poets right
 arm so that he knows exactly
 where he is during the thirty-min-
 ute broadcast each Tuesday night.
 Guest formerly kept time with an ordinary pocket watch which | wasn't very legible and now he, can
 still keep his eye on the script and
 know how the seconds are ticking. Roland Young will make hls
 radio debut in Claire Runners
 "Her Masters Voice" on the Lux
 Radio Theater on. Sunday, March 17 when he comes to an NBC-
 WIZ microphone in New York at l2:30 p. m., EST.
 Gus Haenschen, the orchestra director, could have been com poser and starved in a Greenwich
 Village garret. Instead he went to work as a dance band director in New York until he got to the place where he had the means and the time to write music. Now he writes tunes for fun and directs important programs on the air.
 The worlds champions at bridge the Four Aces-only have tu play for five minutes during their CBS program three tim es a week
 from New York, but they start
 enough verbal fireworks among the listeners on their 52-station hook up to fill set of the Encyclopedia Brittanica every night they are on
 the kilocycles. Frank Mum hasn't ridden 8 bi- cycle for twenty years, but he's an interested spectator at the annual
 bike races in Madison Square Gar den between broadcasts.. He still
 belongs to a Bronx cycling club
 which he joined at the age ot IT. Fora Layman's success with Roxy's' Revue is a story of perse- Iverance. The versatile-voiced sing

 fame she achieved in a single nights performance. Roxy's Gang
 has been Zora's goal in four years of heartbreaking effort. She's to
 be fixture on the Saturday night broadcast.
 She danced and was wooed to the strains of Whiteman's music and the singing of Jack Fulton. Now. as Long Island housewife,
 a listener has written the tenor
