McNinch Interpretation.
Earlier Frank r. McNinch. chair
man OF the Federal Power Commls-
sion, sought to show Title 2 OF tns
Public Utility Holding Company Act
Of 1885, which his agency administers
is not affected by the Baltimore deci-
sion. In q statement he said this
title was left untouched by the ruling
Judge Coleman's summary" he
said, may lead to widespread misun-
derstanding as to the scope and
effect Of his decision. The court Spe'
cifically says that Title 2 Is not tn
yolved in the case. Yet in his sum-
mary and in the concluding part Of
his opinion he declares the Public
Utility Act to be void in its entirety.
"Manifestly, after having SPECIFIC.
ally exempted Title 2 from the opin.
ion, the general statement that the
entire Public Utility Act is unconsti-
tutionai can only have reference &C
Title !, which alone was the ISSUE
IN the case"
Title I, the chairman explained
deals With holding company systems
while Title 2 deals with interstate
operating companies and licensee com
panies both within and without thu
holding company systems.

ROME, November . GP.-The Sec
ond major advance Of 1talys northern
army into Ethiopia, just completed
with the capture Of Makale was esti-
mated by authorities today to have
cost the Italians 80 dead and 81
wounded.
These casualties included one Ital-

Meeting Makale with the Eritrean sea-
port Of Marsa Fatma, was understood

As was done after the capture OF
Aduwa in the first advance, engineer
ing parties were expected to be sent
forward to lay roads ahead while As
kari bands swept the country for sew
eral miles beyond Makale to make

The first serious Ethiopian opposi-

tary experts said, there must be an

point.
These authorities predicted that q
showdown fight might not come before

Ambs Alaji would give the Italians
thu entire Ethiopian Province Of Tigre
