THE WINIFRED TIMES News Review of Current Events the World Over President's Program Driven Through Congress Before Adjournment—Mussolini Refuses to Abandon His Projected Conquest of Ethiopia. By EDWARD W. PICKARD eD Western Newspaper Union. L ROISLATIVE action in both house and senate was fast and furious during the closing days of the session. White House pressure was freely used: filibusters were start- ed and stopped; sen- ators and representa- tives, hot and both- ered, were inclined to be quarrelsome. But congress had Its or- ders and it wanted to go borne, so the ad ministration program in general was pushed through. One of the most Controversial measures on that program, the Guffey coal bill, bad been driven through the house by orders from above and threats of a strike, and when It was taken up by the senate every effort to kill it, by eliminating the tax feature, was defeated. Dur- ing the debate Senator Walter F. George of Georgia, Democrat, created a sensation by denouncing the bill in these words: \Outside of political circles, it Is questionable whether there are live reputable lawyers In the United States who would declare this measure . con- stRutional. However, that Is not the worst feature of the bill. The worst feature is the defect and infirmity in the legislative program that we are developing. This nation cannot re- main free and happy, If we are to legislate for groups, and beyond all of that, if groups are to legislate for themselves the end of things is not very far distant. \That Is the situation we have con- fronting us. And to this kind of pro- gram the Democratic party is willing' to commit itself!\ Senator George was assailing the proposal to set up district boards in the coal industry, which would make their own laws as to trade practices and regulate wages and hours, allo- cate tonnages and fix prices, with re- gard only for their own interests. \This Is the type of absolutism from which we relmited to establish this Re- public,\ he declared. The house gave up the fight against the \death sentence\ in the utilities bill and instructed conferees to accept a \compromise\ that was prettY much one-sided. This means that all holding companies beyond the second degree are to be sentenced to death by the SEC promptly after January 1, 1938. Even a holding company In the second degree would not escape unless its operations were confined to a single integrated system within a state or within contiguous states. Both senate and house adopted a resolution making mandatory the em- bargo on munitions shipments to both belligerents In case of war. This was what the administration did not want, claiming It would tie the hands of the executive so that he could exert no Influence toward averting war. Senate and house accepted the con- ferees' report on the bill Increasing the powers of TVA and legalizing that body's past actions and it was sent to the White House. The senate passed without a record vote the railway bankruptcy amendments recommended by Co-ordinator Joseph B. Eastman, which are designed to prohibit minori- ties from blocking reorganization plank Senator . ()unto AUSSOLIN1 Is determined to COB- IVA quer Ethiopia, and all Europe Is trembling. II duce evidently feels that his personal prestige Is at stake, and to him that means the continuation of the Fascist regime. An thony Eden and Pierre .a vat offered Italy what would amount to a mandate over Halle Selassie's realm, but that was not enough, so the tri- lower conference in (arls was declared ad- journed. The friend - Premier ship between France Mussolini and Italy must be ruptured. Great Britain will in- sist on action by the League of Na- tions council when It meets Septem- ber 4. There is no reason to believe that the council will do more than it did in the case of Japan's seizure of Manchuria, but It seemingly will be forced to denounce Italy's action, and that would be enough to Induce Mus- solini to withdraw his country from the league. If and when Italy defies the league, that pretentious body, previously defied successfully by Japan and Germany, will amount to little. After Baron Pompel Aloisl had sub- mitted the Anglo-French proposition to Mussolini and had received the duce's reply, he told Eden and [AVM that his master would he satisfied with nothing less than \annexation of Ethiopia In whole or In part.\ Leval was furious and directly accused Mussolini of breaking a personni premise made to him when he visited Rome. Eden abruptly brought the conference to a close. Hurrying hack to London, Captain Eden took part in conferences held by PrAme Minister Stanley Baldwin and the members of his cabinet, together with various former ministers, opposi- tion _leaders and public men not In office. The situation was admittedly tense and the advice of such men as Lloyd George, Lord Cecil and Winston Churchill was sought by the govern- ment. Sir Samuel Hoare, foreign sec- retary, also called in representatives of all the self-governing dominions. It was understood the British govern- ment would be prepared fully to honor Its obligations under the League of Nations covenant, these including the denouncing of a nation that attacks another member of the league. Of course the air In London was full of rumors of war, but officials gave as. Surance that Great Britain would move with the greatest caution, Paris heard unconfirmed reports that Mussolini was trying to negotiate a secret military alliance with Hitler. If such a pact is signed it will greatly in- crease the chances of another general European war. CAMUEL B. PETTENGILL, Demo - k•• 7 crane representative from Indiana, aroused the house to wild cheering by a downright attack on Tom Corcoran. the White House lob- byist who has been charged with trying to Intimidate congress- men. Pettengill ienged the house lobby committee to summon Corcoran again and question him about his reported dealing in utility issues on the New York Stock ex- change market at the same time he labored for legislation against utilities at Wash- ington. The Indiana representative thus brought out into the open the rumors, whispered about the Capitol, that ad- ministration lobbyists were profiting secretly by stock market deals In se- curities affected by legislation for which they were exerting tremendous efforts. Corcoran once admitted to a com- mittee that he had been a stock mar- ket plunger and had made and lost a small fortune. \In view of this admission,\ Petten- gill told the house, \the rules com- mittee, Investigating lobbying, should summon Corcoran and question him as to whether he is now in the market with reference to utility stock.\ G RADUALLY the President Is bring- ing all the alphabetical units of the New Deal directly under his con- trol by bringing them under the budget and accounting act. Thirteen of them already have been treated thus by ex- ecutive order, and more will follow soon. They are required to submit to the budget bureau estimates covering expenditures and to go on a month to month spending basis. At first the .heads of these various administrations resented this and blamed Secretary Mocgenthau, but when they learned that the President was strong for the plan they quietly gave in. M ORE than 80,000 troops of all branches of the armed service got well started in the great war maneu- vers In northern New York which were organized and direct- ed by Maj. Gen. Den- nis E. Nolan. The reg- ular army men of the first area and the Na- tional Guardsmen of New England, New York and New Jersey I participated, and in mil muddy fields, tangled pine forests, back- woods roads, they had rvi,, j 6e, Nolan a series of \engage- ments,\ troops oppos- ing troops under conditions closely si- mulating reel warfare. An interest- ing feature was the use of a big fleet of taxicabs from New York city. Pine camp, just south of the Thousand Is- lands region, was the center of oper- ations. Ranking high officers of the army and military attaches of foreign nations observed the maneuvers. During the opening days the Twen- ty-seventh New York division com- manded by Mn). Gen. William N. Has- kell was pitted In the eastern portion of the 100 square mile maneuver area against the Forty-third New England division, commanded by Maj. Gen. Mor- ris B. Payne. In the western portion of the changing terrain the Forty- fourth New Jersey and New York di- vision, commanded by Maj. Gen. John 3. Torrey, opposed the Twenty-sixth Massachustitts division. A PAN has been offended by our navy on various occasions, especially by the staging of fleet maneuvers at Ha- waii and the Alaskan coast. Now the sensitive islanders should be pleased, for Aseletant Secretary of the Navy Henry I. Roosevelt has announced that the fleet maneuvers of 1936 will he held at the Panama canal and on the western coast of Central America. Mr. Itoosevelt and the navy high command asserted, not very convincingly, that the shift was not made in response to unofficial Japanese criticism. TN ONE of those sudden gowernmental I upsets frequent in Latin America, President Jose M. Velasco ibarra of Ecuador was thrown out of officer and Antonio P0118. former premier, was put in his place. It all came about because lbarra tried to make himself a dictator and imprisoned the leaders of the opposition. The senate objected and lbarra closed congress. Then the army got into action. lbarre was ar- rested by Col Nicanor Soils, inspector general; the political prisoners were released. and Pons was installed as president. W WILL ROGERS and Wiley Post v crushed to death In Alaska -whet, their plane fell not tar from Point Barrow, were brought back to the states for burial by Joe Crosson, their Intimate friend, In an airplane. And all their countrymen stood figuratively with bared and bowed heads as the broken bodies were laid to rest. None was too great and none too lowly to pay tribute in words and action to those two fine Americabs, one a be- loved comedian, humorist and philos- opher; the other a leader among the world's aviators. They died as they had lived, adventuring gallantly, an.1 the world is the poorer for their pass- ing. DRESIDENT ROOSEVELT'S cotton I textile committee submitted to him certain recommendations to better the industry, and he passed them on to congress for future ac- tion. Secretary of Com- merce Daniel Roper heads the committee and the other mem- bers are Secretary of Labor Perkins, Secre- tary of Agriculture Wallace and Secretary of State Hull The re- port proposed that a friendly agreement be sought with Japan to limit the export of textiles to this coun- try. The committee found tbat A al- though the Japanese imports have been small, the American market has been disturbed, with a resultant depression in the Industry here. A continuance of the labor standards provided under the NRA code was stig- gested. To this end It was recommend- ed that the overnment supplement such voluntar efforts as are being made by admini1ative and legislative measures which may be feasible to aid workers. The committee recommended against discontinuance of the cotton processing tax \during the existing economic emergency as reflected by existing price disparities.\ It held that the tax in- creases the purchasing power of farm- ers and thus benefits worker, in. the cotton textile industry. The government's cotton loan policy was found to be primarily important to the textile industry through its possible stabilizing effect. Various technical recommendations were made by the report, but the prop- osition of representatives of the in- dustry that the government virtually subsidize cotton textile exports by an allowance of 7 cents per pound was disapproved. M INORITY members of the senate Iv/ and house committees that are Investigating the doing of lobbyists started out the week with the deter- mination to find out why Marvin tl. &teeth - tyre, secretary to the President; Lawrence W. Robert, Jr., as- sistant secretary of the treasury, and Amon U. Carter of Fort Worth, publisher and friend of the Roosevelt family, were all found in the apart- ment at the Shoreham hotel of Bernard B. Robinson of Chicago, chief lobbyist of the Associated Gas and Electric com- pany. Mr. Robinson himself also was there, and it was said when the door was opened at the knock of the ser- geant at arms of the senate a \scene of revelry\ was disclosed. For a day or two the news of this affair was not sent out from Washington by the news assoclatione, reportedly because of the efforts of Mr. Carter to have it sup- pressed entirely. This, too, some of the investigators want explained. Republican members of the house committee also said they would insist on the interrogation of Undersecretary of the Interior Charles West and Emil Hurja, executive director of the Demo- cratic national committee. West Is re- putedly the President's lobbyist and Hurja acts in a similar capacity for Post master General Farley, and both of them were involved with Tom Cor- coran In the utilities \death sentence\ lobbying that started the whole in- quiry. B. El. Robinscn Seeretti, Roper WHEN Charles S. Risk, the Rhode V V Island lawyer who defeated the New Deal candidate for congress re- cently. entered the house on the arm of Representative Bertrand ii. Snell, Republican leader, and was escorted to the speaker's rostrum to take the oath, he was vociferously greeted by the Republicans as a hero whose vic- tory they thought presaged great things for the party next year. Mr. Risk took his seat on his thirty-eighth birthday. F LOYD B. OLSON, governor of IV Minnesota, OD 11111 Way t o Wash- ington. stopped In Chicago long enough to tell reporters that he Intended to be a candidate for the United States senate -in 1936. This was interpreted RP meaning that he would contest the re-election of Thomas D. s c hnii, the blind Repiffilican. Governor Olson Is a Farmer Laborite.

Arthur HrI.ban. Thus run the headlines: \ITALY BARS ALL PEACE TALK.\ \BRITAIN WEIGHS SANCTIONS. WANTS TO KNOW OUR POLICY.\ If she wants to know the policy of 90 out of a 100 ordinary Americans, and 100 per cent of all common sense Americans, it would be this: To mind our own business; let Eu- ropean nations, alternately murdering each other and robbing inferior na- tions, attend to their business, in their way. Our policy now, with Italy swallow- ing Ethiopia, should be exactly what it was when our British friends were busy swallowing the lands of the Boers, absoebing that country with its valu- able gold and diamond mines. We did nothing then, Why should we invent a sPeclal policy for Mussolini now? France and England \fear Mussolini may involve three continents In the Ethiopian war.\ Has Europe heard of the New England farmer who said: \I'm on my way to town to get drunk, and Lord, how I dread it!\ He need not have gone to town. European na- tions need not he dragged Into a tri- continental war If they don't want to be dragged. A very old poker player of the New York Press club, when he \raised the pot,\ remarked usually: \The only way to discourage vice is to make it expensive.\ That idea seems to be working In Germany. Doctor Schacht, bead of the great German bank, lead- ing financier of the Reich, warns Ger- many that Nazi Individuals indulging themselves In the pleasure of treating defenseless Jews brutally, are endan- gering German's prosperity. Such wan- ton brutality constitutes a great menace to German trade everywhere, according to Doctor Schacht, who knows. Republicans report greatly Increased demand for the nomination of Senator Borah, since the announcement that, if nominated, he will run. This will be mournful news for some itepub lican corporation -best minds, for whether they have to be \lashed with scorpions,\ or with something else, would make little difference to some of them who consider Senator Borah dis- tinctly in the \scorpion\ class. ' An old gentleman of eighty-one strolled into a New York police sta- tion, remarking: \I have just walked from Kansas City and shall walk back again tonight.\ He was removed to a psychopathic ward. If he had substi- tuted the verb \fly\ for \walk.\ the police would not have disturbed him, for he could have flown In from Kan- sas City during the day very easily and flown back again at night. If 25 years ago he had said, \I just flew In from Kansas City.\ he would have been sent to the dangerous ward. So there is progress. At Sverdlovsk, Russian government engineers, digging sewers under the city, find gold ore that Indicates a rich gold field underlying the town. The government owns practically all the city, and can easily take the rest, and a further increase In Russia's gold production, already more than three times as great as that of the United States, may be expected. Those that believe In the wicked- ness of Russia may ask: \Why does Providence allow such wicked people to find so much gold?\ One answer is, \The quickest way to make them stop their wickedness I. to make them rich, and gold would do that.\ Gold might not change the existing government of Russia. But another generation will see another kind of government, and ownership of such a lump of gold, as we possess, might make that next Russian govern- ment consider Lenin and Stalin \old fashioned.\ Providence works mysterloasly. Physicians at Sr. Vincent's hospital in New York report the extraordinary rase of a balmy, that lived for 27 days, appearing almost normal but pos- sessing no brain.

DYES IMPORTANT AGENTS IN WAR AGAINST DISEASE The same dye that gives vivid col- or to a woolen, silk or cotton yarn may, In the hands of a physician, protect the life and health of human beings, Dr. Cary P. McCord points oqt in his article, \Chemists Dyes and Doctors,\ appearing In Hygela Magazine. Among the several dyes used daily In medical practice are phenol red, to test the degree of efficiency of the kidneys; eosin, for the blood count; scarlet red, for indolent ulcers, and methylene blue for the treatment of carbon monoxide poisoning. An assignment to make synthetic quinine from the then worthless product known as coal tar unexpect- edly made the youthful William Henry Perkin the discoverer of the first coal tar dye. A wholly new field of chemistry was introduced into England in 1857. Out of Per - kin's beakers have come thousands of dyes which find their origin in the coal tar hydrocarbons, such as ben zene, toluene and xylene, and are obtained by distillation. There are approximately 3,000 dif- ferent synthetic dyes known today, providing a range of colors of the rainbow and surpassing In beauty, brilliance and stability those colors provided by nature. Perkin's discovery started the chemical world to deriving other dyes and chemicals from the lowly coal tar. A synthetic indigo was the goal. To Adolph Baeyer goes the credit for establishing the struc- ture of the indigo molecule and the completion of the processes neces- sary for its production from coal. Heumann, another German chem- ist, discovered by accident the magic that changed liaeyer's \near indigo\ Into the commercial indigo of today. Mercury was the necessary catalyst. Don't Be a Sucker! Modern Mining Is Job for Experts Gold is tricky stuff. Its very name does things to the sanest mind. The sands of Nevada, the gullies of Cali- fornia are dotted with the bones of people who thought they could out- smart hard rock. Don't be one of them!
