charges of direct official British
interference on behalf of Ethio-

tanned in the official Italian press

Using identical words, the news.
papers said that food and fuel
had been furnished daily to Ras
Demtu's army by the British con.
sui at Megz, northwest of the
front where the Italians are claim
ing a tremendous victory.
The charge is upheld. according
to the papers, by documents dis
covered in the positions aban.
doned by Ras Desta.
Popolo Di Roma added the al
legation that two British air
planes flew over the Italians
columns in the south and sig
nailed their movements to Ras
DeSta's generals during the ETH

The Italians now claim to
have penetrated nearly ESQ miles
northwest of Dolo, almost to the
rich lake district of the south

army Of Ras Desta.

N EUT RAL|TY
POLICY HIT
international News Service


The Administrations neutrality
policy was vigorously criticized to-
day by former Republican Solicitor
General James M. Beck.
ParaphraSing the favorable COM
parsons of President Roosevelt
and Andrew Jackson that were
made by Democratic orators at
Jackson Day dinners, Beck de-
clared:
ANDREW Jackson won the cuI-
minating victory in the war of
1912 which this nation fought to
vindicate the freedom of the
seas. President Roosevelt, by
his rigid neutrality policy, has
abandoned this time hOnOred
tradition, which, be it noted, our
soldiers and sailors fought for
during the World War.
"Andrew Jackson raised the
American flag in territory hith-
ertO unOccupied; President
Roosevelt has pulled down the
American flag in the Philip
pines, thus handing to Japan
the control of the Pacific and
Asia.
