Eritroa, Dec. Italian fliri))anes bombed the Ethiopian city of Dessye and a nearby encampment today, but aviators brouiiht back word they believed Emperor Haile Selassie had escaped unscatched. The king was reported to have been making his headquarters in iormer lialian consulate in Dessye instead of at the encampment at Roriirnieda, nine miles the northeast, in which tens of thou- aands of men wpre said to be s(at ioned. The avialois declared they made a direct hit on the consulate. It was understood they were misled somewhat, however, by a large red tent in which the emperor usually stays, which was left in tlie middle of the military camp while he went to the consulate building.

Part of Dessye and some of the soldiers tents were set afire by the bombing, it was stated. Haile Selassie came to Dessye last week to direct operations on the northern front. Great conceii- rat ions of Ethiouian forces w'ere under.stood to be in and near the town, 175 miles northeast of Addis Ababa. Tile idanes dropped huge cargoes of bombs on the city and the en- canipment, each plane being loaded with i)ounds of powcrtul explosives. 'I'he troops replied to the bombardment with rifle and machine-gun fire, and anti-aircraft guns in action, but the Fascist machines were said not to have damaged seriously and all returned to their base safely.

Losses Believed Heavy Altlwmgh the Ethiopian losses could not be estimated, some Italian officers said they might run thousands, as the Italian attack came as a complete surprise and tlie bombers w'ell trained. The Italian aviators reported that In some cases their bombs apparently chused destruction of munitions stored in houses in De.ssye. Manv dwellings, they declared, had been evacuated by the civil population to give room for the troops, and some buildings had been made into storehouses. Despite the belief that the ein- escaped.

Stripped of liis several high offices President direction and his own resignation, Peek asserted that share of world commerce had fallen from 15.8 to 9.5 percent. He called for abandonment of the administration effort to promote trade by the reciprocal tariff concession method.

Thus the responsibility for any failure in negotiations would be shifted upon Premier Mussolini.

If congress fails to take a similar action, the League then might cancel the embargo as ineffective, it as added.

Whatever action was decided upon, if any, will not be announced until the court meets at noon Monday after a tw'o recess. Usually petitions for review are decided with a one-word statement, either or The statement is not read aloud in the courtroom, but is handed to the clerk by Chief Justice Hughes.

Recent developments in New Jersey in the celebrated case have no bearing on any action taken by the justices. They do not take judicial notice of anything that has happened in the case since the Bronx carpenter was convicted at Flemington and that verdict was affirmed by the court of errors and appeals, the highest state tribunal. Should the supreme court announce it would review the case, arguments would be held probably in February or March and a final decision given within a few weeks thereafter. The justices could either uphold the conviction or order a new trial. If the court should announce its refusal to pass on the case, that would mean it did not believe rights under the federal constitution had been denied by proceedings in New Jersey courts.

Such action would leave in effect the sentence of death the lectric chair. P. L. Jolly. E.
