LONDON, Feb.

It has s. great advan- tage over a long one in that it can sustain a mood ‘without tech- nical creaking and. overpaddlng. And if I con-do a little towards re- instating it in its rightful pride, I sbsu have achieved one of my more sentimental ambitions." _~ As far as the public goes, Coward hessucceedsd.

A committee of League of Na- tions sanctlons experts at Geneva recommended a stiffening of the “buy nothing from Italy" fiboycott and representatives of the world's or” ' ‘ i1 , countries prepared to meet today to discuss a possible oil embargo against Italy.

In Dessye an Ethiopian com- munique claimed an Italian brigade from. the famous Oct. Z8 blackshirt division had been "wiped out" in an 11-day battle near Makale. (In Rome this was termed "fantasticfli More than 8,000 Italians were re- ported killed or wounded.

In Addis Ababa it I was semi- officlally reported General Baitcha, veteran of the Italian defeat of ‘.896, would replace General Desta Demtu as Ethiopian leader in the south, where General Grazianfs troops have penetrated deep into the country. Three other generals were ordered into that sector to stern the Italian advance.

WITH THE SOUTTIERN ITAL- IAN FORCES AT NEGHELLI, Jan. 30——(Dels.yed)—’1‘he swift motorized Italian columns 0f General Rudol- fo Grazianl have driven back the forces of Ras Desta Demtu 80 miles further along the Ganale Doria to- ward Alatta, halfway between Colo and Addis Ababa.

The Ethiopians met the Italian advance with a fierce counter-at- tack at Alatta. but were overcome.

The Ethiopians were reported to in releating in panic but fighting desperately.

They are mostly afoot, and with only camels tocarry them, are un- able to retreat faster than the Ital- ian trucks can pursue.

A second Italian division contin- ued pushlng along theDawa Pal-ma general front near the border of the Kenya British Colony. This ad- vance has already captured Sadei, Malca Ghersi and Malca Murri where terrific battles amid dark African Jungle settings reportedly resulted in heavy Ethiopian and scattered Italian casualties.

Since Graziani ordered the Ital- ian advance from Dolo, the Fas- cists have advanced about 400 miles along the Dawa Parma, capturing approximately 10000 square miles otnew territory.

Men in camps should be per- mitted to purchase their own clothes

Generally speaking the commit- tee found meals, recreation facilit- ies and medical services satisfac- tory. Mcals were described as clean and wholesome, ‘and no discrimin- ation was shown‘ between those on relief and administration staffs. Kitchens and dining halls were found to be “spotiessly clean."

Facilities for washing clothes were ample. There was adequate water‘ supply for bathing.

The committee stated it was "unfair" to brand the camps as military establishments. It com- mended the organization set up by the Department of National

efencc as being fair to the men

and efficient in management. ., The committee‘ which conducted the investigation was made up of R. A.

As it was merely a departmental com- mittee reporting to the Minister of Labor. its findings need not have been made public. The minister however decided they should be klven out.

Make Statement

When issuing the report he made the following brief statement:

"The members of thecommlttec were selected for the task because of their special knowledge in re- ksrd to the several aspects or the relief camp problem. They ap- preached their investigation with a sympathetic understanding of the human factors in the problem and with a. knowledge as well or the practical considerations which must also have their bearing on Bovernmerit policy.
