: PAGE TWELVE THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1930 AFRICAN EMPEROR WILL BE CROWNED WITH GREAT POMP Abyssinian King Is Only Ab- solute Monarch in Africa Addis Abbaba, Abyssinia.--This ancient capital city is dressing it- self for another of its colorful cor- onations. On November 2, His Majesty Haile Sellassie I is to be crowned Emporer of the Ethiopians with all pomp original to his long established race. Abyssinia is the only absolute monarchy in Africa. H. M. Haile Sellassie I has been the center of one coronation. In 1928, he was named co-ruler of the country with the title of Negus (king), by the Empress Zaoditou who died on April 3.. Mtich of his time and that of the government of late has been spent in preparing for the big coronation. The new Emperor will receive his crown from the principal archbishop of the Ethiopian church in the presence of representatives of the various governments of the world. Before being named Negus, Hai- le, Sellassie I was governor of the province of Harar, His father, who was a cousin of the Emperor Mene- lik 1I, who died in 1913, held the same distinction before him. The coming to the throne of Haile Sel- lassie is being watched closely by the three European countries which have coloniees adjoining Abyssinia --England, 'France and Italy. Since his trip through Europe in 1924, the emperor has adopted more modern ways of doing things. France and Italy are now jock- eying for predominant influence in the country. Commercial traffic for the northern part of Abyssinia has been handled through the port of Jibuti in French Somaliland. Recently, a lreaty was signed hetween Italy and. Abyssinia ecall- tng for construction of.a new road from the coast city of Assab in Eritrea, which is controlled by Italy, to Magdala, a strategic city in Abyssinia. This, it is believed, will divert some of the traffic from the French port. Great Britain is interested in the country because head waters of the Blue Nile, which is the life of the Sudan, are in its mountains. An American construction company was recently awarded a contract for canalization in this section of the Sudan." RACE AGAINST TIME TO IMPORT BUTTER FROM NEW ZEALAND Ce Wellington, New Zealand.
