of the United States navy, refused
to comment today on charges of a
former Consolidated Aircraft COM

Today it depends on Mussolinl
whether there is war with Ethiopia.
Mussolini is at the peak of his
career, forceful, fearless, in the
perfection of physical and mental
efficiency. He came to power as

Then he suffered from digestive
troubles. BY constant exercise, by
attention to diet, he has made him.
self an all-round athlete.
Mussolini today does not smoke
or drink spirits. He takes wine
seldom and sparingly. His frugal
oiet is made up largely of fish,
fruits and vegetables. Before i'm
portant work he takes almost no
food. He rides horseback daily,
fences regularly to coordinate
muscles and mind, drives racing
automobiles, otorcycles and
notorboats, pilots airplanes, yachts,
swimS and skis.
He has done more than any man
to make all Italians athletes.
He lives at the rambling Villa
Torlinio, in the most fashionable
residential district. At all times he
| is under guard. Outside the high
walls detectives and carabineirs
patrol.
His last year has been his biggest,
except for the year when he seized
power. He is the center of the
Ethiopian crisis, he has taken TIE
lead in European diplomacy he
has initiated the Fascist cooperative
state, and he has intensified the
country's military power.

surface.
MATTITUCK, N. Y, July 29 UH
Rescue workers dug frantically
today to reach Richard Hojnocki,
55, who was buried Saturday night
in an avalanche of sand in a 22-foot
we'll he had dug near his summer
cottage.
The treacherous sand gave way
repeatedly throughout yesterday as
rescuers neared the level where
Hojnocki would be found. A
mechanical shovel, digging a wide
hole beside the pit, brought new
perils as Hojnocki's small cottage
tottered precepitously on the edge.
Gables were strung about the house
and tied to trees on the opposite
side.
Mrs. Hojnocki, near hysteria, was
guarded closely in a neighbor'S
house to prevent her from throwing
herself into the pit.
Hojnocki began the we'll several
weeks ago and continued although
neighbors had warned of the danger
of digging in loose sand. He hao
braced the wells crudely.
Saturday night he reached the
22-foot level and stopped. Although
he had not struck water he planned
to force a pipe the remaining 30
feet.
His son, Frank, 18, handed down
bricks and Hojonocki began yelling
in the pit. When the wall was up
six feet the crude snoring gave way
and Hojnocki was caught beneath
the tons of sand that poured in.
