Reports reaching the headquarters from the Northern Ethiopian Army advance posts state that guerilla attacks by the black troops are inflicting heavy casualties upon the Italian outposts. During the past two nights the Italians have been, harassed con- stantly.

Meanwhile, in Ogaden the fighting continues un- abated. There have been hand-to-hand skirmishes.

A Red Cross unit has opened a hospital at Jijiga and is caring for the victims of gas attacks and shell-shock. Meanwhile, brigades of Mohammedans, armed with new Mauser rifles, have marched to the front to join the Christian Ethiopians. In marked contrast to the half naked Christians, the Moslems are clad in flowing white garments and lace skull caps.

The guerillas are attempting to prevent the Italiaus from possess- "ing the Water-holes, in accordance The with headquarters' orders. most effective way to defend the plateau is to drive the Italians mad with thirst, they claim,

LEAGUE COMMITTEE SETS TO WORK

ITALY FEELS BRITAIN PRESSING SANCTIONS

It is understood that the first work of the League's Co-ordinating Committee, dealing with the application of penalties against Italy and the Italo-Ethiopian crisis generally, will be to consider lifting the arms embargo at present in force against Ethiopia.

There is virtual unanimity in the League with res- pect to sanctions, and only Austria and Hungary failed to register an affirmative vote for the Co-ordinating Committee's institution.

Italy feels that the League is rushing sanctions against her, and that Great Britain is responsible for the speed at which the Geneva machinery has been working. The Italian resentment against Britain is consequently increasing.
