1 The Work By LESLIE EICHEL Central Pres* Staff Writer NEW YORK. Nov 4 — It looks as If the United States may have more of an economic concern in Ethiopia than was at first intimated. There are few investments. In vestments do not enter into the matter. But exports do. The real battle in Ethiopia is over Lake Tsana, the headwaters of the Blue Nile. The British desire Lake Tsana to remain under Ethiopian Jurisdiction, which means the Brit ish may do what they please. The Italians could use Lake Tsana to ir rigate a large region in Ethiopia, and grow an excellent grade of cot ton. * If Italy should divert the waters cd Lake Tsana to any great extent, British cotton in Egypt might per ish from lack of irrigation. That is the view of the situation brought back to the United States from Ethiopia and Italy by a keen observer The American factor lies in this— increased cotton growing in Africa will interfere still more with Ameri can cotton exports. • • • It is now improbable that jieace terms could be agreed upon in Ethi opia if the British had sufficient as surance the Lake Tsana region would fall to no one except themselves. The Italians, however, know that most of the remainder of Ethiopia Is desert, and is not suitable for colo nizing by whites • * w "Hie observer who relumed from Ethiopia is not hopeful for the Ethi opians. They live as they lived 7, 000 years ago. when they traded with King Solomon. They have the oldest nation in existence, and very nearly the most backward It is a land ruled by feudal chiefs, who tolerate Emperor Haile Selas sie so long as he makes no real ef fort to free the people from the sup erstition and ignorance that keeps them enslaved. A penetration into Ethiopia by a large power was certain. Mussolini’s method may be crude compared to the manner in which England would have gone about it. but Mussolini : has doomed the isolation of this backward land. The big powers now j will divide it. if not actually, then | ! economically. » • • The Ethiopians may be fighters— I in the sense of a thousand years ago —but they are no match for Mus solini's modern army, the returned observer asserts. Ethiopian guns «there aren’t many) are 50 years old The major ity are from Prance. And the ma jority were used in the Franco Prussian war U870>. New rifles are coming from Eng land now. But Ethiopians are un trained.
