LIFEOF PEACE
RETURNING TO
ALL ETHIOPIA
New Philosophy Of Natives
Is "Why Get Killed for
Nothing"
BY JAMES BOHRBAUGH
United Press Staff Correspondent


Adds ABABA, Jan. 8. Cup.
Ethiopian resistance rapidly is APP
preaching the vanishing point as
the new year starts.
Long columns of Italian troops
are swinging southwark along the
lakes, others are cutting through
to the borders of the Sudan, still
others are going toward Jimma to
occupy the rich coffee lands in
|cluding the province of kaffa from
which coffee got its name, while
two other columns are proceeding
slowly toward Cancer in the east
and ali in the southeast.
Squadrons of bombers are daily
flying over the regions which have
not yet submitted, demonstrating
the power of Italy to any one who
may be in doubt.
Not one organized Ethiopian
force now opposes these troops.
The few remaining groups have
been smashed and their leaders
killed. Now the scattering bands
of brigands are retreating and re-
turning to more peaceable occu-
pations.
NATIVES ABANDON
OPPOSITION
Natives say guerilla bands have
stopped killing and do little steal
ing. All shrug their shoulders and
grumble:
"The emperor deserted us. Why
should we fight for him and get
killed for nothing"
Impartial observers believe the
Italians will find they have a
peaceful empire much sooner than
they expected. The Ethiopian is
utterly incapable of sustained ef-
fort. That fact has been demon
strated time after time in the his
tory of the country. 1t was re-
peated during the war and it is
probable that it will be seen again.
Their volatile temperament might
cause them to ris cup in rebellion
occasionally if hey had little re-
spect for the government. But the
fear of Marshal GRAHAM is we'll

pie. 49,

BOULDER CITY, New, Jan. s.
(UP).-Lakc Mead, worlds larg-

where it stretches for 100 miles
behind Boulder dam. And it never

Lake Mead was not expected
to influence the weather Of the

Page, acting rcclama commission

Investigation was started last
summer when unauthorized state
mcnts circulated that pcrceptible
changes in the weather and eli
mate were noticeable as Lake
Mead grew behind the dam bar
ricr across the Colorado river.
The reclamation bureau calcu-
lated in advance the rate Of evapo-
ration from Lake Mead which
could be expected when the lake
formed in the desert. These cal
culations indicated insufficient
moisture would be taken into the
air to alter weather conditions
noticably.
EVAPORATION CHECKED
DAILY
Tests are underway at the lake
to check precisely the actual
evaporation daily and records SO
far indicate the advance calcula.
tions are correct.

Seventeen pilots and co-pilots Of

News Behind the News
- The Rebel Yell

WASHINGTON - Echoes of the rebel yell
which rang out in the House as the dilapidated
wage-hour bill was showed into its tomb will
reverberate for long time to come.
This issue has all the earmarks OF one of
those tormenting problems which continue to
plague Congress until the "reformers' agitating
it finally get some legislation on the books.
Furthermore, it has shaped up as sectional
economic struggle, with northern and southern
groups bitterly arrayed against each other
Whether any bill will come out OF the forth
coming session is doubtful, but the fact that the
issue is no dead duck is also attested by the
narrow margin in the House vote to recommit
the labor committee bill. switch of 10 votes
could have saved it.
1t is important to note that nothing has been
done about wages and hours and child labor, and
that nearly everyone not TO mention the Demo-
cratic and Republican platforms, processes to
agree that something must be done. Communi-
ties in certain areas are still able TO invite sweat
shop operators with the lure Of cheap labor
Official figures have shown: 43 per cent of
women in Florida factories to be earning less
than 20 cents an hour; 10 per cent of Tennessee
factory workers making less than 20 cents an
hour and less than S5 week; wages OF 81
week, or less than IA cents an hour common
in industries of Texas where half the women
workers engaged in pecan-shelling make less than
10 cents an hour.
But in Connecticut, 81 per cent of workers in
the trousers-knickers factories less than Is
cents an hour in the dull season. Nearly half
receive less than 80 cents in the busy season.
Ten to Is per cent of Delaware factory work
ers earn less than SIS week, and about half
less than $40 a week Here in Washington
per cent of women in factories earn less than
SIS a week. In nine states surveyed 10 per cent
of men in underwear factories made less than $40
a week.
About 65 per cent of steel mill workers last
year were on ii to 48-hour work-weeks, about
70 per cent in machine tool plants so per cent
in paper and pulp, and 40 per cent in furniture.
Some 43 per cent of Rhode Island factory women
work 48 hours more, and 20 per cent of North
Carolina cotton mills were found 55-hour
schedules.
Work-weeks of so to 60 hours, and wages of
less than S4 a week have been found common"
among child laborers. A SiX-state survey showed
nearly fourth of employed children under Is
on a 60-hour or longer week, and nearly a fifth
of them earning less than 81 for weeks work.
Child labor appeared to increase about $50 per
cent in 1886 over 1885.
When business was much better earlier this
year, the Bureau of Labor Statistics estimated
that about one-third of fuli-time wage and sal
ary workers were not getting enough money to
buy the bare minimum necessities of life
That's why another federal survey found
about 18 per cent of relief cases to be those of
fulltme workers whose pay checks had to be
supplemented, the effect being to subsidze low
wage manufacturers In Pennsylvania the grants
in-aid-of-wageS relief cases were 29 per cent of

How About Some
Collective Baroainino2

Industry declares the New Deal is out
TO throttle business. The New Deal de-
elares industry, advocating an "aristo-
crate anarchy" is fostering a general
strike of capital in America to coerce
political action. Like two wolves. they
are at one another's throats.
Meanwhile, those who suffer are the
poor devils who are neither Industry
nor New Deal" Unfortunately for Am
erica, that includes most of us.
There never was a better place for
application of one particular New Deal
innovation, collective bargaining. Some
where there is a middle ground between
the two extremes where industry and
the New Deal can get together-if they
will-without particular harm to the
working man or anybody else. Unless
they do, and that pretty soon, most of
US are going to join President Roosevelt
IN quoting Shakespeare: "a plague o.
both your housesi'
Unfortunately for the United States,
this fight cannot be confined to the two
principals, because industry affects ev-
cry one of US, and the New Deal-our
current government-also affects every
one of US. Sooner or later each of US
is going to have to line up on one side
or the other, or else we're going to have
to choose our own side and force peace
on the warning pair by very strength of
numbers
No one who is fair can say, ''The New
Deal is altogether to blame' Neither
can anyone say, and be entirely fair
about it, that Industry is entirely to
blame"
1t is not impossible although it may
be improbable, that industry and the
New Deal will get together some day,
sheath their knives, do little collective
bargaining, and each agree to clean its
own house. Each one spends too much
time blaming the other fellow, and nei-
ther spends enough time correcting its
own faults. And there are plenty of
faults in EACH

Tomlinson believes. He should know
what he is talking about, for he is close
ly connected with the work which makes
such development possible.
Why is such news important?
First and greatest reason is that it
demonstrates how the worlds progress
has not stopped, but goes on in spite of
war alarms and political maneuvering.
There are other reasons, too, all wrap
