The lean and bearded Lion of Judah stepped down from his golden throne to grant an amazing interview to the Associated Press as his primitive empire stirred with frenzied preparations for war. The war, he predicted in the solemn tones of a medieval prophet, not only would drench Italy and Ethiopia in blood, but might drag in the whole world. Unhappily, he cried, if such a conflict leads to a world struggle between the white and black races, the very existence of humanity itself will be threatened. We will be back in 1914!
