HAILE SELASSIE CONFIDENT

BACK FROM TOUR OF FRONT LINES

EYE-WITNESS TALE OF TANKS' AMBUSH

Addis Ababa, Nov. 21.

Emperor Haile Selassie brought back many reasona for reassurance as the result of his aerial tour to the front. He denies Italian reports of an enormous ad- vance on the Ogaden front and the desertion of chief- tains, saying the population is unimpressed by the Italian air raids.

Members of the Emperor's entourage retail ac counts by eye-witnesses of the capture of four Italian tanks, which were ambushed, six members of the crew being killed. A seventh escaped on a motor-cycle.

An eighth member of the crew took refuge in a tank and defended himself with a revolver.

An Ethiopian attacker who was shot in the eye by this Italian became enraged and plunged his arm through the spy-hole, seized the Italian's hair, drew his head through the opening and whisked it off with a single stroke of his sword..
