ETHIOPIANS RESIST ITALY, SAYS ENVOY

NEW YORK, May 5 (U. | John F, Shaw, who still is recognized | by Washington as the Consul Gen- | eral of Ethiopia, said today on the third anniversary of the conquest by

Italy that armed resistance in that African country centinues. “Very much so,” he added. “According to reports I have received recently the Italians are not holding the territory that they did when they first captured Addis Ababa. “The resistance is organized under several of the Rases (Princes). There are tens of thousands of men in| forces. One concentration is| only a few miles from Addis Ababa.” Mr. Shaw was named to his post in 1935 and although he cannot even visa a passport—the Italians would not honor it—he is nominally | the Ethiopian representative here because Washington has not recog-! nized the Italian annexation. He said deposed Emperor Haile Selassie is in dire financial straits.
