following seven months Of warfare in
the East African kingdom.
Austria and Hungary. through their
economic and political alliance under
the Rome pact, have virtually recog-
nized Italian territorial expansion
though only in semi-onlcial manner.
Reach Accord in Berlin.
The German recognition Of Musso-
lini's conquest Of the African kingdom
of Emperor Halle Selassie followed a
concrete and definite" Italo-German
accord reached in Berlin yesterday by
Mussolinis son-in-law, Foreign Min
lister, Count Galeazzo Ciano, and the
German foreign minister, Baron Kon-
statin Won Neurath.
Germany's action, which was FORE
shadowed by the establishment of a
German Legation at Adds Ababa sew
eral months ago, was viewed in some
quarters as another blow at the pres
tige OF the League of Nations.
Germanyis recognition, sealing the
new rapprochement between the die
tator nations, was seen in these quar-
tiers as definitely signaling the begin
ming of a powerful double-barreled
Fascist influence on European affairs.
The official communique announc-
ing the recognition stated:
"The Fuehrer and chancellor COM
municated to the representative Of the
Fascist government, Count Galeazzo
Ciano. that the government Of the
Reich formally recognizes the Italo-
Ethiopian empire.
The Italian minister Of foreign af-
fairs noted this declaration and ex-
pressed the satisfaction and apprecia-
ton Of the Fascist government"

China Clipper Quits Hawaii

ON BOARD CHINA CLIPPER, EN-
ROUTE TO SAN FRANCISCO, Octo-
ber "a Cby wireless) After an over.
night stop on Waikiki Beach we took
OF from Pearl Harbor at 12:l7 pm.
today, leaving Hawaii basking IN the
sunlight, and began the longest over
water airplane jump in the world.
Our ship, laden with fuel, eight
passengers and crew of seven, is ex-
pected to strike landfan at California
in about 20 hours. Then will take q
United Airlines plane for New York,
arriving there Sunday morning. and
completing world tour in which only
scheduled transportation. open to any
traveller, was used. expect to be only
three days late on my original sched-
ule which called for three weeks. The
only delay on my trip was caused by
typhoons between Guam and Manila
while I was waiting in Manila for the
China Clipper to arrive.
The start of the final leg Of my
Pacific flight followed a rousing vel
come in Honolulu where we passed the
Hawaii Clipper on the first paying
passenger service westward across the
Pacific. The Hawaii Clipper took of
for Midway Island early this morning
The entire Hawaiian Islands. cele-
brated the initial flight on the theory
that only one day now separates them
from the United States.
Capt. Dahlstrom Of the China
Clipper lifted the ships 251a tons
from the water after q run of So
seconds, pointed her nose toward
