REVIVE PLAN
TO PIPE GAS
TO MINNESOTA

A public demand for low
cost fuel for industrial use in
the Iron Range of Minnesota
is this week taking form, with
civic organizations of the var
ious north Minnesota cities
preparing a formal application
with the Public Works Ad-
rninstration at Washington
for funds for the construction
of a natural gas pipeline from
Montana to the Twin Cities.
A leading figure in the renewed
effort is John w. Schmidt Of
Anoka, who has been prominent in
Montana oil and gas development
for several years. Some time ago
a group of Independent natural gas
operators of the Twin Cities met
and raised a fund to investigate the
possibilities of securing Government
aid to build a pipeline from Montana
to points in Minnesota. They raised
a fund and sent delegates to Wash
ington, and were told that II they
had q sufficient supply in Montana
and could show the PWA officials
. demand for this gaa in Minnes0ta
that they would consider It fursaaer.
Accordingly, the matter was pre-
sented to the various municipalities
with the result that nearly every
city commission and commercial
club on the Range has taken action,
asking the government to grant a
loan. A new process OF treating
iron ores with natural gas heat has
recently been evolved and gas at
IS or 90 cents, it is reported, would
revolutionize the mining industry
in the Iron range, conserving mil
lions OF tons Of low grade ores
which will otherwise go to waste.
According to Mr. Schmidt there |
is in the Iron Range territory iron |
ore reserves as follows
100000 tons. direct shipping |
ore.
100, 100000 tons concentrated ore
$1,000, 1000, 900 tons (approxi-
mately) low grade ore, or approx
mately 36 years supply of high
grade ore; 500 years supply OF low
grade ore.

 APPROVAL NEEDED
Connecticut Manufactur. CTS Await Sanction for LiquidatiOn of Claims

Washington, D. O.. Oct. 23.-- Manufacturers in Connecticut who haze dollar accounts outstanding against consumers In Brazil must await approval of the commercial trade treaty with the United States by both houses of parliament be- fore their claims can be liquidated. according to information furnished today to Senator Lonergan by the state department. '
 Senator Lonergan explained that during recent negotiations for the Brazilian trade treaty under the reciprocal treaty program, liquida- ton of dolla. accounts In Brazil were blocked. An agreement for the liquidation of these accounts was subsequently negotiated directly with the Brazilian government by interested American firms acting through the nation foreign trade council. It was understood, Senator Lonergan was informed. that the council agreed to an agreement by whicn liquidation of blocked funds should become effective simultane- ously with ratification Of the trade agreement. The Brazilian constitu- tio.l require" that both houses 0i parliament must pass upon com inercisl treaties. ana they have mol yet taken action upon the trade pac.s.

ETHIOpIANS ARE
 EAGER. TO SCRAP
Warriors Are Begging Their Emperor to Let
 Them at Italians
BY EDWARD W. BEATTIE

(Copyright, 1885, by United Prcss)
 Adds Ababa, Oct. .23.-(UP)- Warriors of the northern Ethiopian armies estimated by Ethiopian sources at perhaps 100000 men, pleaded with their commanders to- day to let them storm the Adigret- Aduwa-Aksu line, held by 18o,0o0 invading Italians.
 Emperor Halle Selassie was re- ported to be reserving decision on whether to give the order for his troops to take the offensive in battle which might determine the fate of the entire northern half of his empire.
 He realized an attempt to drive the Italians back into Eritrea would be a stupendous military gamble, perhaps the decisive gamble of the war with his country's future as the stake.
 Clamor to Take Risk
 But his fighting men clamored for him to take the risk and some of the more hot-headed chieftains added their pleas.
 AS these pleas were weighed in the royal palace, the betting was that the final decision would be to join battle with Mussolini's legions when they reach Makale. 50 miles sovsth of their front lines.
 The capital rejoiced over reports brought in by native runners that IS members of the advance Italian unit were killed on the south- eastern Ogaden front by the ex- plosion of mines which they had planted themselves, intending to lure Ethiopian troops, led by Tabte Mikael. into the trap. An Italian soldier. acting as a decoy, tripped over the mine trigger, exploding 1t.
 Even more joyful demonstrations greeted another report that three Ethiopian machine-gun crews. op- erating from a roadside ambuscade near Ualual moved down 400 Ital- ians advancing under command ot Genefal Rodolfo Graziani.
 The commanders of the northern troops concentrating around Makale and eager to start big push against
