Can Check Advance.
The reorganization of Ethiopian
forces, so cruelty shattered by the
mechanical arts of the Italians, must
now proceed along lines Of trivial
groups and raiding patrols expressly
commanded to attack small points and
isolated posts. Such tactics will force
the Italians to remain in compact
groups, near the most paSsable of
communicating roads. These tactics
on the part OF the EthiOpians will
effectually check further advances
and keep the ball of sympathy roll
ing in European capitals until such
time as the household of Europe can
settle its inter family squabbles as
to the spoilS of the last of free Africa.
That many advisers have been
against the mass forces of Ras Desta,
Ras Nasibu, Ras Seyoum and Ras
KaSsa is not, think, common knowl-
edge. However, I can testify that
Wehib Pasha, Turkish generalissimo
of the southern Ethiopian front, had
from the outset recommended the in
dependent striking force as the surest
means of checking Italian aims. AS
early as last August, when I first met
the old gentleman. he was arguing
that force of $500 picked men. scat
tered along the approaches to the
highlands, would strike more terror
into the Italian Army than $4,000
savages brandishing rifles in the face
Of machine guns and airplanes.
Saw Danger Of Raiders.
That the Emperor deliberately re-
fused such a request became common
knowledge around the PaSha's head
quarters.
What no observer grasped, however,
was the significance of this refusal.
The Emperor dared not organize such
forces within his borders unless as a
last desperate remedy; for it Is quite
conceivable that such groups would
not be content with striking only at
Italians. Such a group of Somali
camel corpsmen. if they were so
minded, would strike with equal zest
at Gallas or Amharras in that coun-
try where all men bear arms and
fight as their sole occupation. The
Emperor refused all such advice, and
herded his forces under the four Kings
whose loyalty was beyond all queS-
tion. He simply massed them. it has
turned out. for Italian slaughter.
But Halle SelaSsie, being the most
astute of savage rulers, will not make
the same mistake twice. I should not
be surprised to hear soon, from our
camera man at Harrar, that the
Southern forces are turning back into
the bush to fight in their own way, in
small groups and sudden chickering's
answerable to none but their local
leaders. And surely they have a text
book for such matters, ably written
and demonstrated by the late Col
Lawrence, who with such f1y-by might
methods broke the Turkish Empire in
Arabia.

understood to result not only from
desire to shorten the congresSion ses-
sion, but also from a reluctance to
engage in any needless controversies
with the election campaign approach
ing.
Pittman pointed to domestic issues
pressing for congressional attention,
and said differences of opinion on the
neutrality legislation might lead to
long debate and possibly block all
action at this session.
Pittman Outlines Plans.
Outlining his plans in detail, Pitt
man said:
There is a desire on the part of
the administration and almost a uni
versal determination , in Congress to
extend for one year the temporary
provision of the existing neutrality law,
which provides:
'An embargo on shipments Of arms,
ammunition and implements to belh-
gerants. (This is the provision which
expires February 29.
Prohibition against the carrying
of embargoed materials by American
vessels to belligerants.
Provisions relative to the travel on
beliggerent vessels by citizens Of the
United States.
Provisions relative to the use Of
our ports by belligerent vessels or in
aid Of transportation Of embargoed ma
terials by belligerent vessels.
Regulations on the use of our ports
by belligerent submarines.
Features for the licensing OF mur
nitions manufacturers.
Early Report Had Been Sought.
"For some time there has been great
uneasiness on the part of proponents
for extension of this legislation be-
cause of the nearness of its expiration
on February 80.
"It was the hope of the commit
tees in the House and Senate in
charge of the proposed additional leg
islation that an earlier report could
be obtained on the new proposals.
"But a great and sincere divergence
of opinion has developed with regard
to the construction and effect Of two
provisions of the proposed legislation,
those permitting the President In his
discretion to limit the export to bel
ligerents of certain articles and ma
teriaIs to normal peace-time levels
and authorizing the President in his
discretion to require that even such
authorized shipments should be at
the risk of the shippers.

HITS TESTIMONY
Governor Says Others In
voIved if Witnesses
Told Truth.
BY the Associated Press.

cS t1c ASSUCldtCu ElcSSs
TRENTON, N. j., February S.-Gov.
Harold G. Hoffman, who reprieved
Bruno Richard Hauptmann to permit
q police search for possible accom-
plices, questioned again today the evi-
dence used to convict Hauptmann.
In a formal statement before leaV-
ing for a hospital, where he under
went an operation for removal OF
nasal obstruction, the Governor said
New Jersey had assumed full re-
sponsibility" for prosecution OF the
Lindbergh kidnap-murder case to its
conclusion and that every effort would
be made to bring all persons involved
in this horrible crime to the bar OF
justice"
"Any unprejudiced person reading
the statements and testimony of New
Jerseys chief witnesses for the prose-
cution must be convinced if they were
telling the truth" he said, that there
are other persons involved in this
crime and must agree that no enforce
ment agency is justified in folding
up while there is still SO much to be
solved IN tnlS case.
Fears Injustice.
"If the statements and the teSti-
mony of these witnesses is unreliable
and it must be if there are no other
persons involved in this crime-it then
seems to me that 1t will be a great
miscarriage of justice to send human
being to the electric chair upon evil
dence that was largely supplied by
these people"
Once before-on January II, the day
following the 30-day reprieve-the
Governor, listing reasons for repriev-
ing Hauptmann, questioned "the
truthfulness and. mental competency
of some of the chief witnesses for the
State"
Asked if the new statement preSaged
a further reprieve when the present
one expires next Saturday, the Gov
ernors Office said it did not. The
Governor was represented as un-
moved from his previous announce
ment that no further reprieve would
be granted unless he and Attorney
General David T. WilentZ agreed one
was necessary.
Attorneys Hasten Probe.
Meantime, the defense, fighting
against time, carried on its investi'
CATION in the hope of saving Haupt-
mann.
c. Lloyd Fisher of the defense staff
visited Hauptmann at State prison
today, and said later the defense ha;
lone or two pieces of new e<denct
that look good" He would not dis
close what they were.
Asked whether the defense woulc
urge the Governor to grant another
reprieve, Fisher said he did not know
