opia is going to occur somewhere near Makale, 1t was indicated today
 There is every sign that the Ethi- opians are getting ready to make a stubborn stand when the Italians next advance or even to launch CT, attack in force.
 Natives have told the Italians that e strong Ethiopian column is march, ing toward Sceliot, about 10 miles south of Makale, peak of the new front line, preparatory to attacking the Italians between Makale and Dolo, @ little to the east.
 Twenty bombing planes have rec turned here riddled with bullets after attacking an Ethiopian concentra- ton estimated to number between l5,000 and 10000 in the afnba Alagi region 25 miles south of Makale.
 Ras Siyourn, Ethiopian comrnaf1- der on this front, is reported to have gathered 30000 regular and irregu- lar troops in the Tembien region to the west of the present Italian front.
 Armed enemy groups of night raiders and pillagers are attempting to harass the Italians behind their own lines in the Cheralta region half way between Makale and Adi- grat.
 This puts Ethlopians to the west and south of the Italian front and the stories of the native infornlers will mean, if true, an attack ct the eastern end of the front.
 Askaris from Eritrea are on the way to seek fight with Ras Si- youm's men who are in the Tembien region.
 In yesterdays bombing raid the players attacked a camp which if- cluded over 100 tents, of which sev- eral were red or green, an indica- ton that high officers were there. (Most of the warriors do not have tents).
 The Ethiopians fired briskly ct the raiding planes.
 Result of Bombing Raid
 The plane of Count Galeazzo Ciano, son. -inlaw of Premier Benito Mussolini, was struck 30 times in the Ethiopian response to the Italian attack. The planes of Mussolinis z sons Bruno and Vittorio were hit nearly Q dozen times. Every plane was hit somewhere.
 Machine Gunner Dalmazzo Birago was wounded in the right knee.
 Mechanic Cippolini for two hours blocked with his thumb e hole in the gasoline tank of c plane. It was the biggest bombing raid

up to the present in the campaign in Ethiopia.
 It was also one of the largest aerial operations since the World War.
 The Italians planes swept as low as 50 to 100 metres (164 to 328 feet) to rake the Ethiopian encampfnent with bomb and machine gun. Authorities believed the Ethio- plans were massing for on attack on the Italian lines which would have ben the first big fight of the war.
 The Italian attack, 1t was an- nounced, caused great confusion among the Ethiopians and 1t was believed their casualties were heavy.
 Wounded Gunner Fired On
 Machine Gunner Birago, despite the serious wound In his knee, con. tinued to fire his gun. He scrubbed out e message to the pilots telling Of his plight. Count Cia1o showed us the blood stained message, scrubbed in pencil, and the blood from Bira- go's wound which dripped down into the fuselage from his post on top Of 0 wing. Ciano had to land ct Ma kale to repair 0 leaking oil pipe, but managed to continue on to Asn1ara'

 He will not get c medal and his name will not be in 0 newspaper. But he is c representative of the class which has the hardest job iTl the campaign-the truck drivers.
 This was c tall, fair, handsome young chap whose truck, loaded with gasoline, had just plunged l6o feet over 0 precipice on Q hairpin turn. When our car halted, he was lying beside the road in the blister- ing sun, his arms and legs broken and with horrible gashes in his head. He was dying fast.

 Rome, November 10 - (UP) -- Ethiopians under Ras siyoum have crossed the Takkage river - the new Italian front in the north-at points which the Italians have not yet occupied, dispatches from the front said today.
 siyoum was said to have ordered the war drums to proclaim general mobilization in villages in his area.
 A few days ago Ras KasSa, com manding Q big army ct Quoram near Lake Ashangi south of Makale, sent siyoum c message urging him to res tire to that front, the dispatches said. Kassa was said to have told eiyoum that he could not dislodge the Italians on the Takkaze front because they were too strong; hence that he would do better to 90 to the Ashangi region.
 eiyoum was said to have respond- cd that 1t was his duty to remain ct his present position.
 Italian columns are proceeding now from Makale and Hauzien to contact siyoum and diSlodge him.

 This north country likes Col Frank Knox or Gov. Ali Landon of Kansas for president after next November.
 That, however, is community preference. The farmers farther up country are thinking of Senator Borah although they suspect he is a trifie wild on money questions. There is some resentment against former President Hoover but he has friends here and they are smart and hopeful.
 President Roosevelt is condemned for too free spending. They say he has broken most of his cam paign promises. George Paul, who taxied me around Aroostook county, said, too, that lot of republicans had got federal and state jobs in Maine.

1 It will mean a supreme test for the Ethiopian warriors, fighting with little modern equipment of any sort; without airplanes, without tanks, without artillery; almost without machine guns; with Q few old anti-aircraft guns: with an as- sortment of rifles dating back to the civil war when they have rifles ct all.
 But they never have been con- quered in their long history and the Romans of 2,000 years ago were turned back ignominiously, defeat- ed by the climate and terrain be- fore they every fought e major battle.
 To make believe that the emperor is on his way to the front more certain, war correspondents were permitted at last to start for Dessye to-day.

 Britain No Benefit
 Britain has never benefited Us mot the slightest - only herself, Madame Zaghloul said with fire "What she gave with one hand, sine took away with the other. She suf- located us, made us mere servants. ?
 Madame zaghloul, white haired and nearing 70, spoke with almost fanatic fervor, her eyes flashing She declared that hitherto there had been little sympathy among Egyptians for Italy, but she added "There's no telling what may de- velop with people in their present mood.

 Although Madame zaghloul speaks English sine insisted on the interview being conducted in French, explaining, T am boycott ting everything British, even the language, which is hateful to me. We are not fighting for women'S rights. We have not even Q parlia- Tnent yet. When we achieve that 1t will Dc time enough to think of cnfranchising women."
 Devoted Life to Fight
 The late Zaghloul Pasha devoted the greater part of his life to fight- ing for Egyptian Independence. He was founder in 10i0 of the WATD (Independence) party, leaders in the present anti-British agitation.
 Twice in the course of his Strug- gle ZGghloul PaSha was sent into political exile.
 His greatest triumphS came after his return. From January to No. vember, 1024, he was premier.
 In 1919 he headed the Egyptian delegation which went to Ferris to lay before the Versailles conference Egypt's claim to complete indepen- dence. The delegation was not seat- ed ct the conference. The WAFD party takes its name from this inci- dent, WAFD being the Arabic word for delegation.
 Cairo, Egypt, Nov. ie = (UP)- Five thousand students held Q sil- ent demonstration ct the govern- r. cnt hospital today for the funeral of Mohammed Abdel Hoakem, ifi- structor on the faculty of arts, who was killed in the anti-British defii- onstrations last week.
 The cortege was headed by girl pupils and nurses of the hospital. Nahag Pasha, extremist Wafdist (natlonalist) leader, attended.
 The cortege was orderly. The stsi- dents wore their native red head gear, the tarboosh, stripes of crepe for mourning and strips of red to signify the spilling of blood.
 The cortege was accompanied py drums and the wall of MuzE1aT pipes, while mourners knelt on roofs, praying. The police were lit- tie in evidence except for Q few native patrols. The students them- selves kept order among the spec tators.

 Heavy Damages Claimed
 The damages claimed in this ace ton are believed to be the heaviest ever sought in Q civil action in the local courts. Mrs. Denny charged she was living happily with her hus- band, John Denny, at southbury for eight years prior to July of 1884, when Mrs. White, through her arts and bandishments stole the love and affection of her husband.
 The evidence fin the case is re- ported to have been obtained in Q sensational raid on the palatial res- idence of Mrs. White at Greenwich. Both Mrs. White and Mrs. Denny are known to move in fashionable circles in New York.

 There was Q crowd of from 600 to 1000 civilians, soldiers and officers outside Mussolini's Venice palace last night for the Fascist meeting.
 Crowd Waited in Vain
 The crowd stood uncomfortably on the wet cobble stones and police- men frequently showed them back to permit official automobiles to pass.
 A group of 20 students whistled the fascist hymn and sought to rouse the crowd by clapping hands.
 When the meeting ended the crowd had grown to 2,000. They acclaimed councillors who left the palace and shouted for Mussolini. But he did not appear.
 Marshal Badoglio sailed from Naples late last night to take his post as commander in chief in East Africa. A few hours earlier, ct Adigrat, Ethiopia, Marshal Emilio De Bono, whom Badoglio succeeds, bade farewell to members of the general staff, reviewed troops and left by motor car with an escort of Carabinieri for As- mara, on his way back to Italy.
