get to the northern front.
The government spokesman for
mally announced last night that
correspondents could leave with
their mule caravans early next
week, probably Tuesday.
Correspondents with motor
trucks will follow after eight days,
so as to arrive at Dessye at the
same time as the mule trains.
Emperor To Go With Writers
Emperor Halle Selassie may or
may not be with the truck cara
van, but in any case, whether ne
goes by automobile or airplane, ne
is expected to time his arrival at
Dessye to coincide with that Of the
correspondents.
The writer's are taking every
necessity of life for two months
stay.
The government promises radio
service from Dessye to Adds
Ababa, but each reporter PROBABLY
will be limited to 80 or 40 words
a day.
Far better Is the governments s
promise to run an airplane courier
service to the capital every day.
Thirty or 40 newspaper men
and photographers have filed
their names to join the expedl-
ton.
Each will have at least 10
mules and eight native boys, so
the newspaper caravan Will
have more than 300 animals and
more than 200 men.
About 20 Have Trucks
Twenty or more correSpon-
dents have trucks, but they must
have mule caravans also to carry
gasoline to Dessye, where abSo-
lutely nothing can be purchased
Great hopes have been aroused
among the correspondents, who
have vainly waited for months
for permission to visit the in
terror.
While their colleagues on the
Italian side paraded to the front,
and were taken on air rides over
the lines, the men covering the
Ethiopian side have been penned
up in Adds Ababa.
The mule market shot UP as q
last-minute rush to organize
caravans took place.
Many correspondents who had
shifted skeptically at all plans
to get to the front. and laughed
at neWSpapermen who made
early arrangements, are gnashing
their teeth today.

ITALY OFF

for conclusion of a reciprocal
trade agreement with italy.
After laborious work, the
State Department worked out a
plan which was to serve as a
basis for diplomatic negotiation.
This plan was wrecked by the
trade restriction scheme adopted
by II Duce shortly before he
launched his armed legionS
against Ethiopia.
Nevertheless, the State Depart
ment went ahead in the hope
of finding another basis for nego-
tiation. However, these efforts
now have been dropped.
Discrimination by Italy
In view of the Governments
decision to discourage all trade
with italy as long as it is at
war, no initiative will be taken
by the State Department to re-
sumo the efforts to find a basis
for negotiation. Nor will this
Government be favorably dis
posed to consider any initiative
on Italy's part while it remains
at war.
Italy now is held guilty of
discrimination against American
trade. However, the benefits OF
trade concessions were extended
her under sufferance until De
cember 81. They were extended
tmporarily, pending the outcome
of the trade discussions.
If Italy is still at war at the
end of December and the trade
discussions have not been re-
sumed, it is likely the benefits
will be withdrawn. These benefits
represent the concessions which
this government has granted and
will grant other countries in re,
ciprocal trade agreements.

Alaska Game Commission wardens,
recently completed a tour of the
west coast of Prince OF aWles is
land which resulted in ten arrests
for violation of the Alaska game
laws The violations included trap
ping without licenses, trapping
during closed seaaons, possession of
illegal fur, aliens trapping without
proper licenses. exceeding bag linn
its on beaver and pit lamping
mink.
Mr.. Goddard found that trapping
in the west coast areas reached no
great proportions this season. This
is chiefly due to the low price of
fur this year. No more than 200
beaver were taken in those areas
and the most of these anne from
sections Immediately adjacent to
villages. The more inaccessible dis
tricts remained untouched.
