ELOQUENT TRIBUTE
ITALO-ABYSSINIAN CONCERN (Received noon.) LONDON, January 20. The “Giornale d’ltalia” (Rome) in a front page article, says that Italy was following the King’s illness with sincere concern. “No matter what hostility there is in certain British parties against Italy, we cannot forget that King George was our ally in the World War. He is a King with great virtues and a deep sense of responsibility and devotion to public affairs. We therefore hope he will soon be able to resume his high mission in British national life.” A message from Addis Ababa stated that Abyssinians were most concerned for the King's health, and inquiries poured in from all parts of the country. The Emperor ordered every bulletin to be immediately transmitted to his headquarters on the field of battle at Bessie.
