IIru la's '5,00:4,000 bales have been found too short in "staple; but 'bhe "Sakel" cotton of the Sudan is of first-rate quality. Therefore, govern,• neent loans, new railways, roads and' canals, a4 well as giant schemes like the. Makwar Dam and •Gebel Antis on the 'Blue (or Abyssinian) Nile— here are •tfokens of Britain's ,new bid for "Empire" eaten and economic self-.s'tl'iciency: . Above all comes the impending oons'ervati'on of water at Lake Tana in the Gojam highlands of Ethiopia proper.. There the !Blue Nile --which is the true life blood bf Egypt and the Sudan—pours out of an old vol- canic crater at 6,000 feet. And con- trol of this source in a sem•ibar'bar- •sus land has for the . past- 40 years been a grave anxiety to Downing Street and the •subject of many treat- ies'—notably with the Emperor Mene- lik. Then the slave system in his loose realm has long been an added prob- lem. Ethiopia's feudal' lords have a1= ways dealt in.' s)ave•s. Their local troops had special hunting grounds which were rounded u'p for hapless men, wo-men and children.. Federal taxes were paid in these slaves in- stead of cash. Some of the provin- cial rases owned 10,000:. serfs on their lands, in their fortress. palaces and. local. armies. The native church al-. so fau'ored the ..share trade. Accept- able 'gifts to the great—,even to the present Emperor—might' be in this "currency"! • This- was the social 'order of 1,000 years. •It caused the social 'order of Nations to hesitate before admitting Ethiopia as a member state in 1923. At times armed bands will set" out for fresh "recruits," muttih as white sportsmen go on safari for big game. Lord Noel Buxton tells the method of it: "These gentry shb•of up the villages at night, when short shrift is given to: the older folks and the young of both sexes are carried off. Caravans are , made up, and the cap- ttives taken north, travelling in' the dark to be sold in Abyssinia, or else embarked foe Arabian markets." On the cb'a.st a girl may be worth 3200; she will fetch twice as much in Mecca er Medina. But an the Red Sea, j3ritain's• Admiralty blocks "the trade," It maintains there small War sloops like the E'enzance and Hastings, of 1,000 tones With four - inch guns. These vessels carry ,sec- ret "slaw' -trade" instructions." They lie in wait for the Arab . sailing -dhows full of captives; and, .once on board the warships, these 'helpless creatures become .free and pass into t'se Sudan. When Ethiopia's Own hot' lowland "coverts'. have grewn thin, the slave' chasers cross over into British' terri- tory in , quest of prey—with camels, cattle and ivory also seized as useful side lines of a 'sudden settoop. It costs •Kenya alone $.200,000 a year to keep these .raiders at bay, and many a fierce ;battle have the Zin'g's Afri- can Rifles had with 'them. On the whble, Ethiopia's domestic serfs are fairly well treated; housed, fed and clothed: and not overworked. But in remoter parts, 40 or 50 days' travel from. Ads•• Ababa, slaves em- ployed oe the land oe, as castle re- tainers are often flogged, branded or chained for misconduct at a despotic mas'ter's will. .In all ca,s•es they are held as "pro- perty" so long as they live; an own- er should no sooner think of paying a slave . for his or her labor than he. would' pay a mule for plowing or a cow for giving her milk. As a re- sult, the "bondsman" mentality is a blank where "mine -nor -thine'.' is con- cerned. Slaves freed by the' present Em'peror's edicts and courts leave tak- en to robbery in an "innocent" way! 'Saki His Majesty to Lord Noe1 Buxton in 1932: "If I liberated them ail with a stroke of my pen --as Pres- id'en't Lincoln did in America-wtat could these ,feeble folk do, bereft of the masters who feed them? They would take to the caravan trails as shiftas (highway robbers). So we must go •slowly with this reform." 'But the tumult of preparation a- STAFFA On Wednesday evening, Sept. 11 the Junior Ins'tit'ute entertained the Junior Farmers at a weinex' and Marshmallow roast held in Mr. Ken Drake's 'bush. Over 50 of the young people were in attendance and a most enjby able time was spent by all. gtainet itneasede war has duddlcened the trace, and& that in untooked for. ways. These slaves neer decamp wholesale! No tonne of country can inspire such' human "chattels." Then .oaut' of the West,' "where their own Nile bends hi a 300: -mile gorge to the Sudan, conies mewls of at allizn'ing Utopia. There (it is whispered), un- der Britain's flag, they win be free men aid women'!, It is not easy for them to` grasp the full , mteaning of this. But they do hear 'of Money be- ing .giivn for work in the •Sudan's cotton fields. Over there they may come and go as they please without fear of chains or the lash, of neck yokels and hot branding irons.. So adventure begins to stir. Long since, the bolder among them have sped away into the unknown at all hazards. At first these strays were restored to their owners. Thus at Moyale the British officer , in charge —Captain Caehrane—found on his hands a large horde of runaway "stock." What was he to do with them? tin's own resources in food and shelter were limited bol his staff. So he appealed to ,'Aron~ Galan, an Ethiopian ruler over the border, who was reipuuted, to be a kindly man. To him Captain Oochrane returned • all the fugitives. "They have," he wrote to the chieftain,. "fled to us on 'acooumt of ill-treatment. Asyou are aware, my Government would never nand them/over if it meant a renewal of the ,hell from which they have es- caped." Ato Gabru was also. warned 'that "oast property" thus 'given back must be well treated. Nothing miore'than a just punishment for bolting 'off. No miurtilaltion or, undue harshness. 0th erwise—,"I can assure you that my Gby'ernment will not in future con- sider the return of' your refugees." The officer aisked for a written, prom- ise on this score. But Sir Sidney Barton, the British Minister at Ad. his Ababa, did not 'approve of - Cap- tain 'Cochrane% action. Writing to his Foreign. Office' chief, he feared: "that the assurances given by Ato Gaibru are worthless: And I am dis- tressed to think of ,the •treatmefit to which these unfortunate people have doubtless been subjected on falling again 'inch the power of their old op- pressors . . You will not :that some of the women have. abandoned their families• and fled • again, into British territory rather than face what they know. most be their fate!" It is no ei'onder, then, that the cotton -growing 'Sudan has beeome what Lady Simon calls "the Land of Refuge." The westward flight grew in vdlume while Sir Austen .Chember- laiTn' was Foreign Minister. "Refugees from Abyssinia," he says in an unof- ficial letter, '"som'eitiimes appear in the Rosieres, and Kurmu lc districts of the Fung Province.' As a rule, they come in twos and threes, Or else Sing- ly. . But, there have been recent cas- es when, 'larger 'groups of 100,.•or ev- en 150, have crossed over into this provint'e out of Aby.'sinia." • Sir Austen goes on to tell of an- other .sieve :stam•pede into the Kae- sale- region. Isere new -transport fa- ciliti'e's with plant breeding and cul- ture .on the largest scale have result- ed in buniper cotton crops ,of the "sakel" type, which Lancashire's 'spindles can use without changing machinery., , So the Foreign Minister could report that: "173 slaves have •escaped to Gedaref, a district head- quarters 75 miles from the frontier. These are `registered' cases' only; it .is probable that other slaves have reached the Sudan of whom no re- cords 'exists." But 'what of their wrathful own- ers? .The polyglot archives of Down- ing Street have no mofe curious mis- sives than the 'pleas of Ethiopian masters that their human ."goods" be given back to them. Here is one: 'Let this reach the Officer at Ged- etretf,' . :May God open his eyes to justices, • I's not your Government a Protec- tor of the Poor and their Properties? I inform you that all the slaves of this Qualbtia region have run away,' toSea'rds Gedaref. Soy we who have libtle are left to mourn a heavy loss; we cannot carry on without' our toil- ers. Therefore, my soh goes to you with this in order that you may help bin, u And ten times ten shall be the thanks of your ,servant. It was rtpproaching midnight and the young man still hovered around the doe. The stillness was suddenly shattered by a loud crash upstairs. "Gracious," said the timid swain, "what was, that?"
