Adds ABABA, Oct. 90. (UP)
Soldiers from the Ogaden front
brought to the capital today an
unconfirmed report that three
Ethiopian machine gun crews had
killed 400 Italians in a roadside
ambush near Ualual on the south
eastern front.
The soldiers said the machine
guns were placed in pits under
camoufage, invisible in a waste of
scrub and rocks on the present
loosely drawn battle front. The
machine gunners withheld their
fire until an advancing Italian col
umn was directly under crossfire,
the soldiers said, and then opened
up from both sides, demoralizing
the marchers and spraying them
from behind as they fed wildly.
The capital also rejoiced, while
increasingly preparing for expect
ed great battles on both north and
south fronts, over official rep 'rts
from Ogaden province that an en-
tire Italian advance unit had been
killed by mines it prepared for
Philippians.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Oct. %
-UP)-Citizens of six north
Florida counties voted overwhelm-
ingly yesterday to authorize a
81, 100000 bond issue to purchase
rlght-Of-way for the cross-state
canal.
Nearly complete returns last
night from, the six counties in
volved showed 1857 in favor of
the issue to only 487 against.
Duval county and Jacksonville,
heaviest population centers of the
counties involved, returned a re-
sounding majority. Complete re-
turns from the county's 81 wards
showed 1908 for the issue, $50
against. The Duval vote would
have swung the election alone.
Heavy balloting throughout
the day easily met the Florida
legal requirement which necessi-
tates at least so per cent of quail
flied electors casting ballots be-
fore bond issue can be author
lied.
Returns last night were unoffi-
cial. They will be validated prob
ably Friday moring by the Flori-
da Cross-State Canal commission.
The returns were for 121 pre-
clncts out of the 157 precicts in
the six counties. The counties are
Duval, Marion, Clay, Levy, Put
nam and Citrus.
In Citrus, IA out of 16 precicts
gave All for; 35 against. Clay
county gave 459 for; SO against.
Only two small precincts with
about 80 votes were missing in

LAKE CHARLES. La, Oct. %,
(UP) .-Desultory firing between
striking union longshoremen and
imported dock guards was re-
sumed in darkness along the six
mile waterfront last night.
Two guards lay dead and eight
wounded from the days battles.
Reports were circulated that IL
more men lay dead on the docks,
beyond the battle line. There was
no way to confirm it. Union pick
cts blocked all roads to the water
front, which is outside the city
limits, and there was no means of
communication with the docks.
Earlier reports that the strike
breakers were removed safely
through picket lines after their
days work were denied by W. A.
Mayo spokesman for the strikers.
He said both strike-breakers and
their guards were still on the
docks.
Occasional shots were heard in
the city.
The city was in confusion.
Peace officers made no attempt to
interfere in the fighting, City po-
lice had no jurisdiction on the wa

Saints preserve us!" she ex- claimed under her breath, while crossing herself devoutly.
 The water whistled it's way to a full, bubbling boil. Maggie did not seem to notice 1t. There was a strange look of determination on her set face.
 "Take that fool kettle off the fire. Its boiling is enough to drive nervous and agitated. He was toy- ing with the cup that stood in the center of the table.
 Maggie advanced toward the stove with slow footsteps. The ket- tie in her hand, she stood for moment and watched the broad back of her husband. Her hand shook as she took the top off the teapot.
 Somehow 1t seemed that her shriek sounded an instant before the thing happened. \ A flood of agonized oaths poured from Toms lips. She steaad down at him aghast, as he franticaly tore at his sodden pantlegs, still steam ing from the boiling water that had poured down them. The empty kettle lay overturned on the l floor. It was several days before Tom was able to get around again. The neighbors were most solicitous. Strangely enough, their Irish pride permitted the Flynns to accept the offerings of soup, cakes, medicines and even a small load of wood which Dooley, the coal man, sent over.
 A week passed and Tom took his first tentative step out of doors. It l was two weeks before he ventured as far as O'Houlihan's, and then Young Tom had to accompany him. Tn short time the two returned. Maggie" Tom said, solemnly. when they were alone, Providence stepped in when you dropped that kettle"
 Maggie quaked inwardly. Was her scheme discovered? What do you mean, Tom?" she asked.
 "Well, was going out that night-God forgive mel was go- ing out with some of the boys to do JOU.V lHeIc was ilO ICCu OL IliS explaining the nature of the "job." Maggie understood. When I didn't show up, the boys went off with out me. They're all in jail. Every last one of them" he finished im- pressively.
 Maggie was silent. Of course Providence had stepped in. What if 1t had been her own hand that performed the actual deed? Hadn't she prayed for an idea? And hadn't such a good one come?
 "That isn't all," he continued. T met Clarity. my old boss, while we were out. Things have opened up again and I'm going back to work tomorrow"
 Thanks be to God!" Maggie ex- claimed fervently, as she donned her coat and hat and started out for Murphy's grocery to sec if she couldn't get some things on "tick" in view of the restored job.

By Er.oIsE LERNARD

The little house was hardly any warmer than the night outside. The wind howled around the windows and crept in beneath the door. Thomas Flynn and his wife Mar garet were huddled together before the big kitchen range. Though no fire burned. within 1t, one felt warmer sitting there.
 Suddenly Tom sprange to his feet and began pacing the floor. This can't go on, Maggie. I've got to get some money somewhere. The poor little ones in there, so cold and hungry!"
 His wife's eyes followed him anx- iously. "Pray, Tom, pray" she pleaded.
 Sure, and I've prayed myself out. I've asked every saint I ever heard of and I've got the angels working overtime"
 Don't speak so lightly of the holy ones!" she rebuked him in a shocked voice. "You haven't prayed hard enough or they would an- swer."
 'The holy ones have their hands full, right now, Maggie, what with all the millions out of work. And he added-'God helps those who help themselves.' So it's helping myself I'm going to be this very night" ,s
 Toms words disturbed Maggie, vaguely. What did he mean by helping himself? There was something in the tone of his voice or the look in his eye that started, all unbidden, her old mothers words. ringing in her ears: "The devil finds work for idle hands,"
 Back across the water fin O'Loughlin Thomas had had a wild streak in him. But when they had married here in the states he had settled down and led 8 steady enough life. Yet since his good job had given out he had been finding solace in O'Houlihan's new tavern. Tom was in his cups entirely too often, although how he got that way was more than Maggie could imagine. The good saints knew he didn't have the money. She decid- ed some one must be settin' him up: bad cess to him.. whoever he was. Now, all these thoughts bur- dened her.
 "What is in your mind, Thomas Flynn? Is it a job?
 Sure, and it's job all right"
 But Maggie was not treasured. She had a feel that all was not well.
 I'm going to break up one of these chairs" he told her, "and start a fire. Then you make me a nice hot cup of tea and I'll be off,"
 Be off. will you? And where might you be going this time O. night?" Maggie asked as she filled the water kettle.

 Maggie murmured to herself. "The devils abroad this night sure. How am I going to keep that gpa1- peen from going out?"

TACOMA, June 25, National Guardsmen threw more tear gas bombs last night, dispersing pickets eering guardsmen, state patrolmen and workers who were enroute home over the 11th Street bridge, after the resumption of lumber mill oper- ations.
 The governor of Oregon was to- day reported to have assured Port land workers desiring to return to work tomorrow, of protection if it was needed.
