any attempts to accelerate the case
beyond its normal speed.
The argument over the trial date
followed Judge Morris decision on
the issues to be taken up in the
trial.
Counsel for the executors had at
tempted to have the issues include
the question of the validity of parts
of the will, as well as the whole
will.
Counsel for Countess Gizycka op-
posed mentioning parts of the will.
Judge Morris decided in facor of
the countess.
Case Limited to Attacks Made.
Judge Morris said it was not up
to the court to bring in attacks on
the will which were not made by
those 'contesting it and that it was
the duty of the executors to deal
with the attacks as made.
Mr.. Caldwell then asked Mr..
Kertz If he were taking the posi-
ton that the countess was raising
only the issue of the will as a whole
and not going into the question
that only part of the will was in
valid because of undue influence or
fraud.
Mr.. Kertz responded he did not
think this the proper time to an
swer that.
Judge Morris, in the light of that
answer, told Mr.. Kertz that if he
feels he has the right to attack any
part of the will, he should amend
his petition asking that the will be
set aside.
Mr.. Caldwell repeated fears he
expressed in court Tuesday that un-
less the issues are. broadly drawn
now, parts of the will may be at
tackled after this case is settled.
Judge Morris commented that Mr..
Caldwell appeared to be inviting a
lot of trouble" that the countess
attorneys have not tried to give him.
Meanwhile, the following attor-
neys filed formal notice they will

cent assessment of members wages
The union has contended that
wages were the strike issue. The
publishers maintain that the issue
is the unions refusal to sign a con-
tract In compliance with REQUIRE
ments Of the Taft-Hartley Law.
The printers, when the strike be-
gan, demanded SIS weekly wage
increase. This would have raised
the weekly wage of day workers to
500 for 36A hours, of night work
ers to $106 for 36A hours and of
early morning workers to $106 for
80 hours.
The publishers latest wage offer
was for 50 weekly increase.

sional 10-cents-an-hour wage in
crease offered by East Coast shipping
lines to AFL Longshoremen was

to reduce the basis of computing

Ryan, lila president.
Mr.. Ryan said the proposal would
be giving away one of our basic
rights"
A Supreme Court ruling last June

work performed in excess of 40
hours a week must be paid for at q
rate of one and a half times the
regular overtime rate of $2621a.
Shippers said the decision calls

management has asked President
Truman to investigate the problem
and recommend a solution.

been done to give effect to what she

Adds Ababa, ETHIOPIA - Sever
al thousand foreign technicians,
are mainstay of Emperor Halle
Selassie in holding his country to-
gether. Thousands of educated
Ethiop.ans were killed in the
war with Italy.
Ethiopia, instead of progressing,
has gone backward in recent
years as a result of the Italian
occupation of 1851
Hence the Empe @: depend
ence on a Swedish Air mission

sions, and scores of American ad-
visOrs in the fields of finance,

5000 Greeks, $500 Italians and

to the government as doctors, en-
gineers. lawyers, teachers and
bureacrats as well as business
men and builders.
Foreign visitors to Ethiopia
since it's liberation by the British
army are usually impressed by
all the highways, bridges, factor
les and public buildings that the
Italians left behind.
They are also impressed by the
dearth of educated Philippians -
a dearth that cannot be explained
by the meref act of this country's
chronic backwardness.
Those who are curious enough
to ask questions soon discover
that three-quarters of Ethiopa's
educated manhood persisted during
the Italian occupation.
Marshall Rodolfo GRAHAM, the
vicery of Ethiopia, was seriously
wounded by a hand grenade
thrown at him in February 1887
by an Ethiopian student. Grazi-
ami, in revenge, ordered his Fac
list police to shoot all the educat-
ed Philippians they could find.
1t is an established fact that
more than 5000 Philippians were
put to death in Adds Ababa in
a single week in response to
Graziani's order.
1t is officially estimated that
some 10000 Philippians - most of
them from the educated classes
= were executed on one pretext
or other during six years of Ital-
ian rule.
