By PRESTON GROvER)

WASHINGTON, Oct. Tiff a general war engulfs Europe, the i'm portant historical question of its exact opening date may never be answered.
 Will history say it began with Mussolinis invasion of Ethiopia or Hitler's occupation of the Rhine land in 1886? Francos challenge to Loyalist Spain in that same year? Hitler's occupation of Austria in 1888? Or some memorable date like Chamberlain's visit to Hitler?
 The historians problem arises from that strange practice :. shoot first, and declare war when it suits, if at all.
 Civil wars within a nation long have started without any declara- tions, including the Spanish revo- lution, and our own war between the states.
 Until the turn of the century, a declaration of war was patriotic thrill. In ancient Rome they gave themselves over to a complete en- joyment of histrionics before the opposing armies fell on each other

THEN CAME THE MAINE


 In our own nish-American war in 1898 Congress was caught off base by the sinking of the Maine, and was forced to content itself with recognizing on August 25 that a state of war had existed for four days. In this country, Congress has to make it legal.
 The next big conflagration was the Russo-Japanese war of 1905. A strategic naval battle had been fought and won by Japan,s heroic Admiral Togo two days before war was declared.
 The World War was little differ ent. True, Austria declared war on Serbia. But the great powers were hiding their strategy and declara- tions would have given tn m away. The German army invaded Luxemburg two days before a declaration of war against France. France and Great Britain likewise were moving into battle forma- tions before they got around to formal statements. Continued on Page Five)

had the effect of outmoding the practice of declaring war The na- tion taking the offensive found it almost necessary to surprise the enemy.
 Probably the last great war which was formally declared all along the line before hostilities began was the Franco Prussian war of 1870. Both armies waited for declaration of war. Even so, the German general staff had gone so far as to map out it's mobiliza- tions and army movements in ad- vance. Germany won, by and large, because of advance preparation.
