LONDON, Eng, Oct. 15.-Recog- nized by British military strategists here as the greatest weakness in any Italian effort to subjugate Ethiopia is the perilously thin and danger ous long line of Italian communica- i tions.
 Modernizing the old adage that an army moves on it's stomach, observ- CTS here point out the almost stag 1 gering problems of transport, com munications and supply involved in Mussolini's East African campaign.
 A single break in this long line of communications, which stretches hack from Eritrea nearly 5000 miles to Italian ports, might turn a vic- torious march of blackshirts into the stupendous debacle of a retreat Of 250,00O starving, thirsty men. Suez Canal Called Vital ! Up to Eritrea the line of supplies stretches through peaceful friendly waters and country, provided the vital Suez canal is not closed. Ob- servers believe such step would turn the East African campaign into a nightmare of rout.
 At Eritrea, however, Mussolini's real problem, of keeping his line of supplies open through enemy coun- try, begins. It is well beyond 500 miles from Asnara to Addis Ababa and the route lies through swamps and across deserts, high mountains and deep canyons. Use of wheeled vehicles through this country is impossible, and probably could be accomplished only after years of labor by Italian road and bridge builders.
 Afcot and upon mules, horses and camels, Mussolini must be prepared to move supplies along this perilous route toward the Ethiopian capital. Every foot of the ground is certain to be contested by savage fighters, challenging not alone the army van guards but the thousands of troops who must be left at periodic inter- vals to guard the line of supply.
 Lesson Found in Old War
 Military experts say that for every man an army has on the firing line, there must be ten behind the lines to keep supplies coming up. This ratio must automatically be in creased in Ethiopia by the staggering difficulties of nature and lack of modern transportation.
 An index to what the Italians may expect is encountered in survey of the campaign directed by General Sir Robert Napier who defeated Emperor Theodore in the Anglo Ethiopian war of 1867-1868.
 At that time armies needed few of the supplies necessary today and Napier moved away from the Red Sea with 42,000 soldiers, and about

10000 baggage carriers and men of all work
 He reached and stormed Magdala with only $500 men, less than 10 percent of his original strength. The rest were claimed by rigors of the campaign, enemy attacks, or strung back along the long line to the base.
 The history of this campaign leads English observers to believe that if Italy moves 250,000 men out of Fri Urea, less than 25,000 ever would reach Addis Ababa. There they would face a precarious fate, de- pendent upon the strength of their enemies in that sector and the abil- ity of the men they left behind to keep food, ammunition, medicine, clothing and even water coming forward.
 Staff Warns Mussolini
 A break ill this line for even a week might reduce the Italian army to starvation. Living off the coun- try would be impossible for such an army. With no ammunition factor ies or other industry in the empire, the troops would be wholly depen- dent upon what came forward from Italy.
 All of these factors are believed to have been detailed by the Italian general staff in report submitted to Mussolini months ago. Military sources here understand Il Duce ex- ploded when he read it's recommen- dations to forego the African ad- venture because of its almost in surmountable difficulties, and tore up the report, exclaiming:
 "Fascism will march straight to victory
 The general staff report, reliable sources here understand, said it would require half million men from 8 to 10 years completely to sub jugate the Philippians. The cost, they said, would be prohibitive.

PROGRAM OF DRAMA CLUB
 DECIDED ON
December Production Fix ed at Three One
 Act Plays

All evening Ol llucS OAiC-oSo plays, to replace the previously considered farcial comedy as the clubs dramatic presentation in De- cember, was almost unanimously voted at last nights meeting of the Juneau Drama Club.
 The change was considered ad- visable because of the short time available before the performance, which is scheduled for the first week in December and because of the difficulty in obtaining plays due to the slow movement of mail be- tween Juneau and the States.
 Following the decision, Airs. Dave Ramsay called for volunteer di- rectors, asking that any club mem bers interested in such service con- tact her before the next meeting, two weeks from tonight.
 It was decided also to make the February production a serious drama, and the late spring show a follies or burlesque.
 Meeting on Monday rather than the routine Tuesday evening-this to avoid conflict with the minstrel show, in which many members are appearing-the club had but scat tered attendance. The rehearsal of the show drew those who were in it, and the Masons and the Knights of Columbus claimed other mem bers, the latter being responsible for the absence of President J. F. Mullen.
 In the absence of both MT. Null len and Mrs. Wellman Holbrook, Mrs. Grover c. Vim presided.
 The club voted to hold a Hall lowe'en costume ball, the place and date to be decided upon by the Social Committee, of which Mrs. w. w. Council is Chairman.
 In a report on the proposed se- curing of the Uptown Theatre, Grover c. Vim was emphatic in his assertion that it could not be done. With the Territorial lease under which the theatre is held, and the many legal entanglements it possesses, our $50 would fade away faster than the winter snow before the summer sum-" he de- clared.
 The possibility that the stage of the Grade School Auditorium might be rented was suggested.
 It was decided to return the time of meeting to 7:30 o'clock and all members were asked to observe this hour with punctuality
 Membership cards were decided upon, and Mrs. Grover c. Winn appointed as a committee of one to find out what the printing costs would be.
 The following new members were added: Esther G. Lundsetter, Dor othy Jane Bourne, Mrs. Katherine Hautala, Myrtle Moe, Robert Ken- meth Ross, John L. Davidson, Louise Jeschien, Bobby Dalzell.
 The meeting was later turned over to Ed Heron, Program Chair man.
 Mrs. Ted Danielson sang two songs, Indian Dawn" and "Lassie O Mine" accompanied by Mrs. Trevor Davis at the piano.
 LoVerne Wilson read "The For saken Garden and The Garden of Proserpine."
 Mrs. Helen Webster presented a dramatic reading, The American ization of Andrew Francois"
 Everett R. Erickson was i'll with a cold and unable to present his view of Men in White,' which will therefore be feature of the next program.
