 ' Papers Talk of War
 Italian newspapers for days past have talked more and more of the danger = almost the certainty - of war in Europe. News that Ba- doglio had left AddiS Ababa less than two weeks after his official appointment as viceroy came un- expectedly and laconically in au- thoritative messages from the capi. tal. These dispatches said that Marshal Rodolfo dra2iani, com" mander in chief in eastern Ethiopia, arrived at Adds Ababa from Harar ct 10 Q. m. yesterday. Badoglio at once handed over authority to Ora" ziani, his second in command m Ethiopia, to rule the country aS regent.
 Quietly Loft for Home
 Then Badoglio quietly left the capital, the dispatches said -"- in an airplane piloted by his own son, Lieutenant Mario Badoglio, who has been at his side with the plane ct each headquarters. Badoglio has had in Ethiopia, 1t s reported. Hadoglio and his son, the diSs patches said, left direct for Askara, capital of Eritrea: there, he was to join his wife and daughter, aad' with them and, presumably, his son, sail for Italy today in the hospital ship, Arborea. Well informed per. sons said here that Badoglio would not return to Africa and that Ora" zlani soon would be named formally to succeed the l2-day viceroy.
 To Arrive May 20
 Badoglio is due to arrive in Italy May 27, and the word iS that King Victor Emmanuel, upon Mussolinis advice, will name 0raziani viceroy soon AfterWard. Events pending, and after, the arrival of the hero of the war were waited with interest. It has been 16> days since Adds Ababa was taken and Mussolini announced to excited thousarlds from 0 balcony of his Venice palace here that the Fascist desire was to turn from war to peace. Despite this declaration, and others to the same effect, the attitude not only in the press but in official quarters con- vinces observers that Italy at present is intensifying its military vigilance rather than thinking seriously and definitely of substituting the pick axe for the hatchet.
 Militia Increased
 The decision of the directorate of the Fascist party to increase the militia by requiring the enrolment of all Fascists between the ages of 2l and 55 - 1,50O,000 in all = is commented on in newspapers in manner which seems to confirm the belief that so long as league penal ties remain in force and Great Bri- tain continues to hold what is called an anti Fascist attitude, there IS grave dange to peace.
 What Britain Thinks

 IA sign that Italy anticipates a prolonged ordeal in Subjecting the whole of Ethiopia.
