Il Ethiopia.
His smart Gen. De Bono Is sending
out glamorous tales of victories 20
keep the Rome fires burning, but these
cannot conceal his dangerous predica-
ment from the wary eyes of those in
the know here
The kind of victories De Bono has
been winning against thin air may be
all right for the crowds at the bulletin
boards In Rome. but the plain inside
fact of the matter IS that his unop-
posed advance will soon cost Musso-
lini far more than the whole OF Etfi-
opla is worth.
The wise ones believe also that the
advance to Adds Ababa will require
weeks, if not months, and that the
war will not really start until Musso-
lini gets there. Then his lines of COM
munication for food will be stretched
out more than 500 miles in two direc-
tons and Halle Selassies raiding guer-
illas will really go to work on them.
In fact, the uhole campaign
sounds like such a toolhardy ad-
venture that the sraartest here
suspect it is only a little stage
prologue to get things going tor q
bigger drama to come tn Europe.
One thing which strengthens this
suspicion is the fact that Mussolini
has left all his good troops at home.
Those in Ethiopia are second string
men with little training.

Bolivian Reference to Chaco
-~Stirs Paraguayan Re-
; quest for Oeletion.

A fiare-up which threatened to de-
velop into an international incident
between Bolivia and Paraguay was
Temporarily allayed today in heated
exchange of views between the min
listers of the two countries at the Pan
American Institute of History and
Geography.
The controversy had begun Wednes-
day with the presentation Of a paper,
BOLIVAR, Man of Peace" in which the
Minister of Bolivia. Enrique Finot, had
planned to deal with the historic back
ground leading up to the Gran Chaco
War between the two countries. For
lack Of time, however, he did not COM
plete the document. In the uncom-
pleted portion of the paper was a
paragraph which the Paraguayan
Minister, Enrique Bordenave, inter-
preted to mean an accusation that
Paraguay was the aggressor in the
war
a This paragraph in the paper has not
been read and will not be read during
the sessions.
"a DetetiOn ncqucSt ncpcdtcu.
While men of science today were de-
livering learned theses on history and
geography Of American republics. the
two ministers sat near each other,
evidently awaiting an opportunity to
take the floor.
j The Paraguayan minister was the
first to speak. He protested the Ian
guage Of the paper and said he wished
TO clear the good name of my coun-
try" He repeated his request of We'd
nesday that the disputed paragraph
be deleted from the document.
AS soon as Bordenave took his seat
Minister Finot jumped to his feet and
made lengthy statement, IN which
he said that he had merely quoted his
torical facts and had no intention OF
placing blame in this scientific session
He said he would be willing to with
draw the paragraph If it were not for
the fact that mimeographed copies
had been distributed and that news
papers had published the fact that
the paragraph is in the paper.
He insisted that it remain there as
record in the institute. He also
protested that the Paraguayan diplo-
matte corps had been holding secret
meetings for discussion of the paper
since it was presented
Harmony Is Urged.
Maj. william Bowie, honorary presi-
dent of the institute, then made a
plea for harmony and for withdrawal
Of the disputed paragraph.
DR.. Wallace W. Atwood suggested
that both statements be filed with the
institute as a part of the record. He
told the disputants that under the
advice of Secretary Hull we cannot
debate this question here"
Minister Ffnot then seconded a mo-
ton to have all statements made a
cart Of the record. Minister Borde-
nave of Paraguay also agreed that
the matter should be dropped from
discussion and that the statements
relative to it should be made a part
Of the institutes records.

morrow. 1t was believed they went to
Philadelphia, home of several of the
suspects under arrest.
Wilson was killed last October
apparently the victim of bullet in
tended for Edward Mickey Nc
Donald, local gambler, who is reported
TO have incurred the enmity of the
gambler now under investigation.
Investigators believe the suspect
hired assassins and sent them to kill
Mcdonald at his home in Takoma
Park. Mcdonald, however, returned
to his home early on the night set for
the murder. and when Wilson drove
UP to deliver newspaper. the gun
men, hiding in clump of trees across
the road, shot him down by mistake.
Police believe John (Slim) Dunn,
now serving time in Alcatraz; Will
liam j. Cleary, Dewey Jenkins and
Albert S. Sutton know something
about the murder. Sutton is in the
District Jail, while Cleary and Jen-
kins are being held incommunicado
in police precincts.
Dead Man Named.
Another man. Claude Bailey, who
was killed recently in an attempted
Jail break at Lorton. also has been
named by police in connection with
the case.
Department of Justice officials de-
MED any arrangements have been
made to bring Dunn here from Alca-
traz, or that they have been asked
to move him. 1t was said, however,
that officials of the department have
conferred with United States Attorney
Leslie C. Garrett on the procedure to
be followed If they should decide later
to transfer the notorious Tri-State
gangster. Dunn Is serving a 15-yesr
sentence in Alcatraz for participation
in the hold-up here of the Heurich
Brewery.
Another angle of the investigation
was disclosed today with the an
nouncement that police will question
Cleary concerning the robbery here
last year Of a well-known racketeer
The racketeer was held up and rob-
bed in Washington about the time
two Capital Transit Co. employees were
murdered last January during the
robbery of the Chevy Chase Lake car
barn. Cleary, it was said, has been
connected with TONY the Singer

MINNEAPOLIS, october Icy
means of an artificial heart the udder
of q dead COW has been made to give
milk, DR.. w. e. Petersen, University
of Minnesota scientist, disclosed today.
DR.. Petersen devised the artificial
heart to aid him in studying the fat
content of milk.
He said it led to a new and better
test for butterfat. The new test Is
known as the Minnesota Babcock out
terfat test, a refinement of the Bab-
cock method, the scientist asserted.
It enables creamery testers to obtain
more accurate results.
DR.. Petersen said that on one occa-
sion he kept an udder "alive" for IS
hours and MIXED it five times during
that period. This was accomplished by
prolonging circulation Of blood through
the gland by means of the mechanical
heart and utilizing the animals lung.
The lung also was kept active for
the same length Of time as the udder,
he said. Both were affixed to the me-
chanical heart.
The mechanical heart Is . revolving
disc with IN iron arm on each side.

NEW YORK, October l0.-The Ma

in 1887.
The date and place will be deter

of infantile paralysis in the area.

1t may seem strange to contend
any one here could have worthwhile
knowledge of what is going on in

make it their private business to know
They do not know everything, but
their studied deductions are about as
good as anything you can get on the
subject anywhere. You may accept
them as well grounded and authentic
Must Build Roads.
They see. for instance, the inside
problem of De Bono. He first moved
into Ethiopia 20 miles and sat down,
although there was no real opposition
in his front. He had to sit down in
order to build roads behind him. He
has built plenty of them, three dis
tinct routes, each about 100 miles,
back to his seaport base at Massaua
His further advance can progress
no faster than his engineers can con-
struct roads in his rear. Each mile
he progresses means that he must
drop off troops to cover these COM
munications.
Thus, the more territory he alb
serbs. the more vulnerable he be-
comes.
De Bono's line was about 60 miles
long at Aduwa. He had about 100000
men on it, with his colonial troops In
the center, so they could be watched
His two best divisions were on the
TANKS. About $4,000 more covered his
rear, back of the combat area.
His immediate strategy uas
thought to be conueTgence on
Makale, Which mould shorten his
line to IS miles. There his real
Stretch-out troubles will begin.
These are so real and so obutous
that he may decide to 90 no
farther.
The Ethiopians are also being
smartly handled. No one knows for
sure how many troops they have, and
it does not make much difference.
Their force at De Bono's front Is SUP
posed to number about 100000. with
Halle Selassie holding $4,000 in the
rear around Adds Ababa.
