Triumphal Tour
LONDON, February 14.
News of the advance of the Abyssinians into their own country is contained in today's communique from Cairo.
The Emperor Haile Selassie has just completed a triumphal tour of the highlands in Abyssinia. A Reuter message says that the Emperor was greeted everywhere with enthusiasm. He insisted, during his tour, on marching and living under the same conditions as his soldiers. Whenever he passed through a village the population rushed out to greet him and offered all the hospitality in their power.
