r\owNRIGHT war between the Chinese armies of Dictator Chiang Kai-shek and the Japanese appeared almost certain when the autonomy

movement in north China was revived In eastern Hopei > and Chahar provinces by Yin Ju-keng, the administrative commissioner and friend of Japan. Leaders of the rest of the region were undecided on their course, but Japanese troops 'began to pour in by the trainload. Three thousand of them with full war

Colonel Takasashl, military attache. asserting this was necessary because the rolling stock was being moved south, threatening the Isolation of the Japanese forces. In Nanking official* said the National government was determined to meet with force any attempt to force autonomy On the territory south of Hopei and Chahar provinces, and the executive Yuan proclaimed five sweeping reforms designed to stop the spread of the movement. Chiang was hurrying large bodies of troops to the northward. He also sought to hold the support of the Shantung war lord. Han Fu-chu. by entrusting him with the defense of the northern Honan and Shantung frontiers and promising him money and supplies. If needed, to stem Invasion. Han Fu-chu of late has been wooed assiduously by the Japanese. Wang Chlng-wel, premier and foreign minister of the Nationalist government. resigned as president of the cabinet He has not fully recovered from the recent attempt to assassinate him. Gen. Shang Chen, governor of Hopei province, also resigned, accepting the responsibility for failure to check the autonomy plot BRAZIL was experiencing another revolt. In the northern part of the country. Latest advice* said the rebels had control of the city of Natal and that a hot fight was on for possession Sit Feraambuco. The uprising was laid to th* Communists and was believed to be led by Luis Carlo* I Teste,. fw *t£ of- South “’’SWem*. It was said he planned to spread the movement all over Brazil, Argentina. Paraguay and Chile. Under command of Gen. Manuel Rabelo, the federal troops, army and navy airplane* and two cruiser* were hurriedly sent northward to combat the rebellion. Several day* later a revolt broke out In Rio de Janeiro, the capital, despite extraordinary precaution*. The principal part!cli>ants there were the aviation forces. They seized the aviation field but government troops recaptured it and It was announced this outbreak hsd been suppressed. Finally the Brazilian government announced that the revolt In the North also had been crushed and that 188 persons had been killed In the four days of fighting. The revolt started when non-com missioned officer* of the Twenty-first battalion, at Natal, began • march on the palace of th* provincial governments. trying to seize Gov. Rafael Fernandez, who took refuge In the police barrack*. THERE was terror throughout Germany when Hitler started what apparently was to be another “purge." Hundred* of persons were arrested and taken to prison or concentration camps, those taken Including some minor officials of the Nazi party tn Berlin. Many others were known as Socialists. The Association of Nationalistic Jews, composed of war veterans, was suppressed and it* leader jailed. NOVEMBER 29 bad been set a* the date for a meeting of the League of Nation* sanction* committee to consider the Impositon of an oil embargo

against Italy, but Pre mier Laval and Brit ish Ambassador George Russell Clerk, after a conference in Paris, recommended that the session be Indefinitely postponed, and this action was taken. The statesmen feared e*rly oil sanctions would seriously aggravate the political situation, and Ural thought If be

were given more time he might bring about the conciliation of the Halo-Ethi-opian quarrel. There were good reason* for the on easiness of the French and British governments. Benito Mussolini had blunt ly told the world that the Imposition of an oil embargo would mean war in Europe, the warning being . given through bis ambassador to France, Vittorio Cerruti. Furthermore, there was doubt In London and Paris concerning the abtlty of the United States government to prevent the shipment of oil to Italian port*. In Washington it was reported that Ambassador Augusto Rosso had discussed the matter with Secretary nt State Hull suggest Ing that attempts to choke off export* of oil. copper, cotton and other commercial articles did not constitute “orthodox” neutrality. Bugnw Halle Selassie made two airplane flights to the fighting fronts tn Ethiopia and cheered up bls forces so that their resistance to the Invasion wga measurably stiffened, especially in the South. The government at Addis Ababa announced that Its armies bad driven the Italian troops back

from Gorahal. recapturing the town of Gerlogubl by encircling movements. In the northern sector, according to the official communique, a thousand Italians occupying Makale retreated fit) miles to Adlgrat. Losses on both sides were Increasing. PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT was 1 mighty busy at Warm Springs studying the departmental estimates for the budget of 1936-37. Representative James P. Buchanan of Texas, chairman of the house appropriations committee. took part In the first conferences and told the correspondents that he would carry a budget of not more than $500,000,009 in excess of estimated revenues through the house by “a devil of a fight." Then Mr. Buchanan, who didn't appear to have White House support for this stand, left suddenly for Washington, refusing to ex-> plain his departure; and the conferences continued with Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau. Acting Budget Director Bell and Mark Shields, clerk of the appropriations committee. The President told the press they were making distinct progress in arranging the federal finances, having already cut the departmental estimates by $400,000,000. He contradicted reports that he was contemplating division of the Ickes PWA and the Hopkins WPA to ease the friction between the two New Deal officials. He asserted a good many similar rumors will be circulated, but no one will know anything about the budget until it Is sent to congress. Mr*. Roosevelt and James, the President’s eldest son. joined him at Warm Springs for Thanksgiving day dinner.

SOME interesting views on current problems: Raymond Moley, former member of the “brain trust,” told the Association of Buying Officers in New York; “I have said many times that, the whole problem of government relldf and work relief is a necessary temporary expedient; but It is also a shaky and dangerous one. Every one is willing to recognize that work relief In itself is no curative. It is narcotic in its effect" Harry W. Nice, Republican governor of Maryland, declared in Chicago that America’s constitution is no more in need of change than are the Ten Commandments. The Issue in the coming election, he held. Is that of free institutions versus dictatorship. Gen. Hugh S. Johnson, former NRA administrator, told Milwaukee Rotarians that the administration is proceeding to the “left," that 97 per cent of the business men of the United States are against it because of the New Dealers’ attitude toward the profit system. A* prime exponents of the government’s present philosophy, Johnson cited Rexford Tugwell.

After one or two more flight* to Manila the clipper will continue to China and operate on through schedules thereafter. The Philippine Clipper, second of Pan-American Airways’ transpacific air fleet, arrived at Alameda from the Atlantic coast and her crew began preparations for a flight to Manila beginning December 6. The plane flew 500 miles from San Diego in three hours 50 minutes. Previously she had flown from Miami, Fla., to Acapulco, Mexico, 1,590 miles, and Acapulco to San Diego, 1,600 miles.

Washington.—Through some months past. Cordell Hull, secretary of state, has been proceeding Canadian cautiously and quietTrade Pact in the negotiation of trade agreements with foreign nations. His work has at- ; traded comparatively little public atI tention although throughout the nego- ' tiations individual economic interests > who stood to gain or lose depending > upon their lines of business have made known their feelings quite emphatic*!-’ ly. Six of these trade agreements, now called trade treaties, had been consummated In this manner. When the seventh agreement came along, however, ' the story was different. That was the treaty with our northern neighbor, Canada. It is impossible here so set forth the list of commercial products encompassed in the new trade agreement with Canada. I doubt if most of the people of this country ever will know details of that treaty. By the nature of things, few persons can be interested in all of the items. But, 1 do not believe that it is the question of individual interest in the entire list that ought to concern, us. Aside from the policy involved in the negotiation and agreement on tariff concessions, the Importance of the Canadian treaty to the average individual lies in the one or two, or half a dozen at most, items that affect each one personally. I do not mean to say that the policy involved Is unimportant. The contrary is decidedly true. From a political standpoint, of course, it is general policy that will be debated; from an individual standpoint it will be the direct effect that execution of that policy has on each of us that will determine our ultimate views and to that extent determine whether we will be for or against the general policy of reducing tariffs enacted against certain kinds of imports. • • • The new agreement with Canada takes effect January I—-provided the Canadian parliament Had ratifies it. No such Free Hand ratification Is necessary in this country. The treaty was negotiated by Mr. Hull and President Roosevelt, under the authority granted by congress in legislation passed a year ago which gave to the President the privilege of working out trade treaties without further congressional sanction. That law restricted the President in only one way, namely, the requirement that an increase or .reduction of tariff rates Included tn those trade treaties may not exceed 50 per cent of the rate fixed in the present tariff laws. So it is seen that Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Hull had virtually complete authority. It will operate for three years and, as tar as I have been able to discover, it will be effective after Canadian ratification and there will be nothing anybody can do about it. be it good or bad. In making public the agreement negotiated by Mr. Hull with Prime Minister MacKenzie King, the President asserted his belief that,the agreement will initiate or revive a flow of'commerce back and forth across our northern frontier in a manner that will be most helpful. He considered that the agreement would mean additional markets for some of our products and therefore additional work for some of our unemployed. The Canadian prime minister was of the opinion that in this agreement a long step had been taken toward healing a breach that has existed between the two countries for 69 years. He was hopeful, like President Roosevelt, that the channels of trade again will be filled, perhaps not to the levels of the boom days of 1928 and 1929, but would again carry satisfactory volume. It will be recalled that our shipments to Canada In 1939 amounted to about $900,000,000. The depression cut those shipments to approximately $300,000,000 last year. So, If the predictions of the ITesldent and Mr. MacKenzie King are in any way fulfilled, a considerable traffic Is due to begin upon the operation of this new treaty. Any discussion of the treaty, however. that failed to call attention to basic conditions, in my opinion, would be short of its goal. So. it seem* to the that while the President and the Canadian prime minister hold such high hope for trade revival, one ought not forget that trade will not flow If no market, no demand, exist* for the goods. It may well be that by reducing the tariff duties that must be paid st the frontier on goods enumerated In the treaty that a reduction in prices will follow. It may then follow that the consequent reduction In prices will stir up a demand for the product*. But that is not certain. It resolves itself, therefore, Into this question: Will there be a sufficient demand among our 139,000,006 people tor goods from Canada and will there be a sufficient demand among Canada's 10,500,000 people at this time to make the provisions of the treaty do the job Its sponsors believe R should do? That 1* the question and that question cannot he answered except through the passage of time. • • • Now from the politic*! standpoint, examination of the treaty must take Into consideration InPolittcal dividual Items. And Standnamt bow those Individual items affect commonitles and economic interests in this country. Already, we here In Washington have been deluged with the complaint* of certain communities against provision* of the treaty. Likewise, we have heard those provisions praised from other sections Thus, from the political standpoint we see developing a fine old fight over the tariff. Tariff questions are and always have been sectional questions. Industrial communities want to be protected

John L. Lewi*

against inroads of foreign competition where labor Is cheaper. Agriculture wants to be protected against Imports from bountiful producing lands in those countries where vast open spaces and high productivity exist at the minimum of cost. Importers and consumers of Imported products always have fought and always will fight to have low tariff rates so that the things they buy may enter this country at. the lowest possible price. With reference to the Canadian treaty, these same conditions exist. Early outbursts Indicate that cattle raising communities and dairy producing sections are up in arms because the treaty reduced a tariff protection accorded against imports of cattle and cattle products and the products of the dairy. It also is evident that much of New England believes the treaty will be destructive of the products which mean their livelihood. In fact, the entire northern tier of states — those along the frontier—are alarmed over the possibililies of heavy importations from Canada to compete in the market that these frontier states had served. Lumber interests are upset. It isjrue that the lumber market in the United States has been in the doldrums for several years and naturally the lumber people do not want to have Canadian shipments absorb what little market they have." These are just a few of the complaints. They are offset, partially at least by the praise and the hopes of some other phases of agriculture such as fruit and vegetable growers who feel that they can now market their products in Canada. Without even a careful analysis of the more than seven Jiundred items involved in the treaty, it is to be seen that there will be possible markets available after January 1 to a number of agricultural lines and to some industrial interests. Yet It remains, as I said earlier, for the passage of time to disclose exactly whether the net result will be favorable to us commercially or whether the Canadians have put over a fine bargain from their standpoint. • • • All of the discussion about the Canadian treaty, however, brings back memory. As a result Political of these recollecDynamite I ,lu « back the other day into the congressional debates of 1911 when a Canadian reciprocity agreement was under consideration, backed by the late William Howard Taft. After reading those debates, particularly the observations of the late and disKngulshed Champ Clark of Missouri and Representative George Norris, now a senator from Nebraska, I could not fail to realize the political dynamite embodied in the new course of international trade relations adopted by President Roosevelt. It was the Canadian reciprocity proposal that defeated Mr. Taft for re election to the Presidency. It was, indeed, that controversy that caused the organization of the Bull Moose party and that sent Mr. Taft into political oblivion I am not predicting here that the same consequences are in store for President R<>»sevelt but it is fair- to recall, it seems to me. that the reciprocity proposal of 1911 burned the Angers of every political leader who pouched it. The cases are not exactly comparable nor analogous. Mr. Roosevelt has retained a number of tariff duties which were swept aside in the proposed Taft recoproclty arrangement. He Is therefore fortified to that extent But you may be sure that those who sponsor the present Canadian agreement are going to meet the same sort of fight that was made against the Taft proposal. Then there is In the current treaty circumstance another factor to be considered. It links back to the Champ Clark observations which were made on February 14, 1911. At that time, Mr. Clark was expressing the view that the reciprocity agreement constituted a step at least in the direction of universal peace. In the debate just mentioned. Mr. Norris asked Mr. Clark to elaborate on his view concerning the value of the agreement as an instrument of peace. “I wanted to ask the gentleman a question along the line of universal peace," said Mr. Norris. “As I understand it, the gentleman favors the bill for at least one reason —that it will have a tendency to bring Canada into the Union ”

“Ye*,” Mr. Clark replied. “I have no doubt about that. I do not have any doubt whatever that day is not far distant when Great Britain will joyfully see all of her North American possessions become a part of this republic. That is the way things are now tending.” So, If the controversy over the present Canadian tariff agreement becomes violent. I think it Is fair to expect that again we will hear the question discussed whether the United States is seeking to annex Canada—to make Canada part and parcel of the United State*. Os course, as tar a* anyone can see today, annexation of Canada is inconceivable but the incident I* related here simply to show bow farreachlDg such controversies may become. • WMtarn N«w»p»p*r Vnloa.
