    An Earthquake hits STAMPEX: Quetta 1935 Building an Exhibit from a Tragedy Contributed by Neil Donen Neil with his ‘salt of the earth’ philatelic wife Nancy Number 3.2 October 2018 A Rare Opportunity - not to be Missed Sometimes we are presented with an opportunity which just we cannot pass up. It is a foolish man who will turn this down. So when Neil Donen agreed that we could share his Exhibit on the Quetta Earthquake, displayed at the Autumn 2018 STAMPEX with us, it was one of those moments. I was more than delighted to welcome an authoritative and insightful addition to our third set of Occasional Papers Neil’s display fitted the agenda set for our Occasional Publications perfectly: • It tells a story which is compellingly interesting; • It introduces what is for many, a new angle on Indian Philately; • It puts humanity at the centre where we can find examples of bravery, resourcefulness, empathy, organizational capacity, kindness and essential optimism; • It is a self-contained fragment from history; • It is a study which can be limited to just 14 days or be extended into the days and years preceding the earthquake and into the aftermath of its consequences; • It poses many unanswered questions which will require further research and thought to reach a conclusion. Many members of the ISC will already have read some of the research work already undertaken by Neil Donen in India Post 52/2 (2018) No. 207. He makes a compelling case for research in these misty areas to be undertaken on a collaborative basis.

  • 1935 Sanctions Against Italy: Would Coal and Crude Oil Have Made a Difference?
    1935 SANCTIONS AGAINST ITALY: WOULD COAL AND CRUDE OIL HAVE MADE 1 A DIFFERENCE? CRISTIANO ANDREA RISTUCCIA LINACRE COLLEGE OXFORD OX1 3JA GREAT BRITAIN Telephone 44 1865 721981 [email protected] 1 Thanks to (in alphabetical order): Dr. Leonardo Becchetti, Sergio Cardarelli (and staff of the ASBI), Criana Connal, John Fawcett, Prof. Charles Feinstein, Dr. James Foreman-Peck, Paola Geretto (and staff of the ISTAT library and archive), Gwyneira Isaac, Clare Pettitt, Prof. Maria Teresa Salvemini, Prof. Giuseppe Tattara, Leigh Shaw-Taylor, Prof. Gianni Toniolo, Dr. Marco Trombetta, and two anonymous referees who made useful comments on a previous version of this paper. The responsibility for the contents of the article is, of course, mine alone. ABSTRACT This article assesses the hypothesis that in 1935 - 1936 the implementation of sanctions on the export of coal and oil products to Italy by the League of Nations would have forced Italy to abandon her imperialistic war against Ethiopia. In particular, the article focuses on the claim that Britain and France, the League’s leaders, could have halted the Italian invasion of Ethiopia by means of coal and oil sanctions, and without the help of the United States, or recourse to stronger means such as a military blockade. An analysis of the data on coal consumption in the industrial census of 1937 - 1938 shows that the Italian industry would have survived a League embargo on coal, provided that Germany continued her supply to Italy. The counterfactual proves that the effect of an oil embargo was entirely dependent on the attitude of the United States towards the League’s action.

  • The Use of Chemical Weapons in the 1935–36 Italo-Ethiopian War
    SIPRI Arms Control and Non-proliferation Programmme, October 2009 The use of chemical weapons in the 1935–36 Italo-Ethiopian War Lina Grip and John Hart* I. Introduction On 3 October 1935 the Second Italo-Abyssinian War (also referred to as the Second Italo-Ethiopian War) began when Italian forces crossed into the territory of present-day Ethiopia (also referred to as the Ethiopian Empire or Abyssinia). Tensions between the countries dated to at least 1887, when Italy first invaded Ethiopia.1 The second war was expected and tensions had been growing since the December 1934 Wal Wal incident in which Ethiopian and Italian soldiers clashed at a fort constructed by Italy at an oasis at Wal Wal. The fort was on Ethiopian territory and Italy, in constructing it, meant to provoke a border demarcation dispute between Ethiopia and Italian Somaliland.2 The main thrust by the Italian forces was through the central high plateau of Ethiopia, a region that was attractive for operations because it enjoyed a temperate climate and Ethiopia’s agriculture was concentrated there. The region was also farthest removed from British and French colonial possessions, and large-scale Italian operations were therefore less likely to trigger a reaction from those powers. General Emilio De Bono was the commander of Italian forces in East Africa, including the Eritrean, Libyan and Somali colonial units. Italian forces had more modern military equipment than the Ethiopian forces generally, and Italy also possessed tanks and a larger, more sophisticated air force.3 Ultimately, about 110 000 Italian soldiers were pitted against approximately 800 000 Ethiopians.

  • The Dutch NSB and Nazi Germany, 1933–1940
    Articles 29/3 7/6/99 12:58 pm Page 349 Dietrich Orlow A Difficult Relationship of Unequal Relatives: The Dutch NSB and Nazi Germany, 1933–1940 Until its recent reappearance in the guise of neo-fascism, European fascism had appeared to many as a transitory political phenomenon that was limited to a brief, albeit fateful, appear- ance on the modern historical scene. This conclusion contrasted strikingly with the attitude of fascism’s contemporaries in the 1920s and 1930s. For them — whether militants, sympathizers, or opponents — fascism was a serious challenge to liberal demo- cracy and Marxist socialism. The fascists themselves, of course, fully endorsed the idea that they represented an international, revolutionary vanguard, which would save European civilization from the forces of decadent bourgeois liberalism and the hordes of Marxist Bolshevism.1 As self-styled components of an international and revolution- ary phenomenon, individual fascist movements deliberately attempted to use the experiences of their ‘sister’ parties to advance their own cause. This was particularly true if the neighbouring movement had already succeeded in establishing a national fascist regime. The following analysis of the relations between the Dutch Nationaal Socialistische Beweging (NSB) and the German Nazis in the 1930s is a case study that demonstrates vividly the illusionary promises and inherent contradictions of fascist internationalism. From its beginnings the NSB looked upon itself as an integral part of the coming fascist revolution in Europe. Although like all fascist movements, the NSB was fiercely nationalistic, the party presented no original ideology of its own; all of its programme was adapted, or better copied, from the Italian fascists and the German Nazis.

BIOGRAPHY From the family of a long line of governors (William Blount, Willie Blount, and Aaron Brown), McAlister was born in Nashville in 1875. He was a Vanderbilt law school graduate and served as city attorney in Nashville. After service in the state senate he served eight years as state treasurer. Losing the race for governor twice, he finally won the nomination in 1932, becoming Tennessee’s depression governor. He cut government expenses to the bone and was re-elected in 1934. He was a strong supporter of TVA, friendly to labor concerns, and supported unemployment compensation. He did not seek re-election in 1936, having come into conflict with Memphis mayor Edward H. Crump’s giant political machine. McAlister died in 1959. *From Tennessee Blue Book, 1999-2000, Millennium Edition. CONTAINER LIST Box 1—Correspondence—General 1. Aare? Ail, 1933-1934 2. Abe?
