ETHIOPIANS IN
 WINNING FIGHT

Rome, Feb. l4-(UP)--A strong Ethiopian force attacked an Italian observation post at Curati, north- west of Gerlogubi on the southern Ethiopian front, and "overpowered" the garrison of 60 dubat native troops after strongest resistance, an official communique said today.
 The engagement previously had been reported from Addis Ababa.
 No mention was made of casual ties in the communique, No. i23 of the Ethiopian war, which read:
 Marshal Badoglio telegraphs that on the Somaliland (southern) front, near Ballet on the Gestro river, an Italian detachment surprised and destroyed an Ethiopian detachment which had withdrawn from Lama Scillinli, capturing arrns mostly of British make.
 "On the Dawa river our motor ized column attacked and disjersed an enemy detachment near Bulbul and Dibdib wells.
 "On February 10 considerable Ethiopian forces attacked our ob- servatiton post ct Curati, northwest of Gerlogubi, overpowering the gar- rison of 60 dubats after strongest resistance.
 "On the Eritrean (northern) front there Is nothing noteworthy to re- port"

YOUNG DOUG NOT
 TO JOIN FATHER

Hollywood, Feb. i4-(UP)--Doug- las Fairbanks, ST., could not be sep- arated today from Douglas Fair banks, Jr., who arrived here from England last night after an absence of two years. Doug ST., promptly offered his son the lead in his forth coming production, "Marco Polo" but the son declared he probably would be unable to accept the offer as he was too busy with his new production company, Criterion Films. The younger Fairbanks is here to complete Q deal with United Artists studio, in which his father is partner, for distribution of Cri- terion pictures. He also will attempt to borrow several American actors for roles in his pictures which are produced in London.
 Young Doug, formerly married to Joan Crawford, laughed of reports that he was romantically interested in either Elissa Landi or Gertrude Lawrence. He said he considered both charming women and his friends but that he was too busy to even think of marriage.

pany of Boston, wholesale station CTS, In the capacity Of clerk.
 The firm suspended business after a few years and MT. Cullen joined his family, which had moved to Wa terbury, his father having accom- panied, as private secretary, the late Rev. Lawrence Walsh, then treas- urer Of the Irish Land league.
 Newspaperman in 1888
 His entry into the newspaper field came In 1888 when he joined the stan of The Republican as a reporter. He advanced through all the stages of reporting and finally became city editor of The Republican and cor- respondent of the Associated Press. He remained in newspaper work for many years.
 MT. Cullen for several years was connected with the old Hellman Brewing company and from this con- cern he went into the employ of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company as land agent. He joined the New Haven road stan in 1906 and remained as land agent until about Q year ago when he rec tired. While in tho newspaper field MT. Cullen also covered several ses- sions of the general assembly.

 During his railroad service, MT. Cullen conducted, alone, the exten- sive property purchases connected with grade crossing eliminations at Fall River, Mass, New Bedford, Mass, Lowell, Mass, and Lynn, Mass. Tn connection with the Lynn grade crossing elimination program, MT. Cullen was loaned to the Boston and Maine Railroad company by the New Haven road. He was also chief land appraiser for three years in the federal valuation of the New Ha- ven road.
 Always a newspaperman, despite his departure from the profession many years ago, MT. Cullen had a keen sense of news value. And as \ newspaperman he wrote a sketch of his life outlining the dates and va- rious other facts included in this notice of his death.
 In his earlier years Mir. Cullen was an active member of the then well known Young Mems Catholic Literary association. He was a charter member of the Elks and first secretary and later exalted ruler of the Waterbury lodge.

This marks thu first time in some weeks, how- ever, that there have been any re- presentatives from the upper Bald win street school. During the past few weeks, with the exception of an occasional high school entry, the battles for spelling honors have been fought by pupils from St. Mar garet's or Merriman.

 The cold wave which advanced southward over the Rocky Moun- tain region was expected to reach most of the midwest by Friday night, Moderate weather yesterday with rain in southern areas again crippled trafiic. Motorists were warned of Wisconsin, Illinois and Indiana roads.
 Helena Earth Tremors
 The freakish weather included earth tremors at Helena and Butte, Mont, but no damage was reported. Many persons believe the tremors foreshadowed another damaging earth quake.
 Iowas coal shortage remained acute. A Rock Island train loaded with coal for Audubon, Ia., was stuck in q snowdrift one mile south of Hamlin.
 The Marshalltown, Ia., city coun- cil assumed charge of distribution of coal. Guards were stationed at the city scales to prevent "hoard- ing" Public buildings were permit ted to stock coal but individuals were limited to q half ton.
 The Ohio river ice gorge broke at Carrsville, Ky, p miles below the houseboat in which eight govern ment workers are marooned. Colder weather would regorge the ice, bringing a sudden rise of water which would crush the houseboat under huge cakes of ice.
 Rainst0rms Abated
 Rainstorms abated in southern California after flooding several communities. Homes of prominent movie stars in the Malibu canyon area were menaced by the floods.
 Although the three day downpour caused property damage estimated at $i00,000, the benefit to crops far outweighed the destruction.

NCOnJlnueQ 1COIu SHBe 4I of troops patrolled the streets and guarded the home of Coy. Galavis.
 When the crowd in the Plaza Bolivar surged towards the palace, shouting protests, the order to fire was given. Many fell and the mob scattered.
 Editor Never Knew
 Under the Gomez regime. there was no board of censors and no rules by which an editor could de- eide what he could or could not print. An editor never knew when the government might descend on him for something which had ap- peared in his paper. As conse- quence, editors feared to print poli- tical news or even local police news. After the death of Gomez, a board was set up and editors could ascertain in advance what could be printed. With the issuance of the Galavis order, however, the cen- sorship board resigned, feeling that matters had been thrown back to what they were under Gomez.
 People Were Wild
 After the shooting in the central square, the people milled through the central streets, shouting against Galavis and displaying placards de- manding punishment of those rec sponsible for shooting into a de- fenseless crowd. The governors automobile was burned. Tn the hope of quieting the public, the govern ment displaced Galavis and named Gen. Elbano Mivelli governor of thte federal district.
 After forcing Gov. Galavis to rec sign, the crowd wrote down with Galavis" on the walls of the gov- ernment house with the blood of the victims of this mornings shooting.
 Liquidation Begins
 The Poet Andres Eloy, harangu- ing the crowd from the palace said:
 "The liquidation of an old ac- count has begun. If 1t is neces- sary to go to Rotunda or Castillo (referring to the famous prisons where political offenders are kept) we will go, before permitting new tyranny to rule Venezuela.
 "But I promise that Gen. Lopez Contreras will punish whoever is responsible for tho assassination of the people of Carcas this morning"
