BRISBANE} THIS WEEK Maybe Peace, After All Building in a Big Way A Level-Headed King One Strike Method The real war news from Europe— It sounds like peace news—ls that Eng- _ land has refused raDce ' B request tor immediate asslstsure in forcing GerU&Mflj||||fl many’s armies from ■ the Rhineland. EngHKLfI land even hints ’ that France may be M t° hl a me. H France appeals to all members of the League of Nations I “ ln H fi - ht for peace.” But, with I ■ — England holding back, other signers ArtM " r Brt«b««e ttie Locant pa C t are not inclined. In the language of the day, to “stick their necks out." The United States is doing and spending in a big way. The Public Works administration says more than 11,000,000,(XX) worth of projects have been completed, with $2,200,000,000 of other work still under construction. Twelve hundred millions have been spent for materials, all Involving labor; $039,000,000 for wage payrolls, by PWA. Organised labor presents a building program of $500,000,000 to occupy the idle building trades. If money bolds out, and the inflation bonds keep tbeir value, this will be remembered as the building age. A level-headed young man Is the new English king. After seeing the new giant Cunarder named for his mother, walking seven miles up and down In It, he visited the slums of Glasgow, called the worst and “reddest" in England. Some ultra “left wing” elty councilors refused to be presented to him. “That’s perfectly all right,” said the king. “Tell them I’ll come and have tea with them Instead." This he did. Two thousand ship workers cheered and called him “Good Old Teddy." The king, who visited Individual tenements, knocking at the doors, patting babies on the head, keeps up with the times. No English king did that before. There are different ways of handling strikes, depending on public officials. At Akron, Ohio, a strike of milk drivers disturbs consuming families and producing farmers. Herman E. Werner, public prosecutor, says coldly: “Anyone who Interferes with milk deliveries will face guns, and the order will be ’Shoot to kill.”* > Akron has 16.000 men out of work; place, and the city Is tired of It. T How many millions would be killed, gassed, bombed, ripped to pieces by shrapnel and machine-gun fire before Hitler or the nation back of him could be persuaded that he Is not a reincarnation of Frederick the Great, or Napoleon? This time a murderous war would be deliberate. No grand duke heir to an Imperial throne has been murdered to supply the spark. The Department of Commerce cannot explain the Arkansas air crash, on January 14. that killed 17. It says some passenger "may have incapacitated the pilot or interfered with controls.” The local sheriff says somebody inside the plane fired a kind of pistol Bullet marks were found. Let air passengers before embarking pan before the electrical device that reveals Instantly a pistol or any other metal object No decent passenger would object. Guns and knives might well be “parked” on entering a plane. Japan Is the question mark tn the war situation, but wise Japan would not deliberately antagonise all her cus tomers and friends In western Europe by striking at Russia, in a war Inter eating to all of them. It Is probable that Japan this time, ns In the last war, would send “observers," thoughtful and silent, to watch the white races cutting each others’ throats. Mrs. Akeley, who used to help her husband bunt lions and gorillas before he died, has been to Africa on her own account and reports that In south East Africa natives cling to their old ways and methods; nothing win change them. The chief who Is sick wants a witch doctor to come, bowl, dance and tell him that he has been bewitched Into •wallowing a small crocodile, which to biting his Insides. Next summer, Chicago entomologists will watch 50,000,000 mosquitoes, after they have been dyed red. green, yellow, blue and brown, and learn how far mosquitoes can fly.

News Review of Current Events the World Over France Forming Solid Front Against Germany in New Crisis—Paraguay Made Totalitarian State — Chester Davis Is Sent to Europe. By EDWARD W. PICKARD e Western Newspaper Union.
SIXTY thousand German troops in' the Rhineland ’ that was supposed to be demilitarised. Practically the entire French army in and behind the vast system of fortifications along France’s f_. eastern frontier. The French government, - .... ■ backed by the other signers of the violated MfepptoOm Locarno treaty and WiMßn ■ by the little entente, |BWfl®fl Poland and Russia, dejfl manded that Germany withdraw her troops from the Rhineland or 1 that sanctions, ecoM. Flandin nom i c and possibly military, be imposed by the League of Nations. Great Britain trying hard to keep the peace, reproving Germany, supporting the French demands In great measure, but urging that Hitler's proposal of new non-aggresslon pacts be given consideration. Reichsfuehrer Hitler reviewing his forces in the reoccupied territory and receiving the loud plaudits of the Inhabitants for restoring their military sovereignty. That In a nutshell was the perilous situation in Europe as the representatives of the Locarno nations and the council of the league assembled in London to consider what to do next Foreign Minister Pierre-Etienne Flandin of France was there with the full support of Premier Sarraut for his demands that Immediate action be taken to bring Hitler to time. He was represented as ‘“almost convinced" that a “preventive war” now would be preferable to “carnage two years hence," and in Paris it was disclosed that France counted on having at her disposal, from her own forces and those of Russia, Poland and the little entente, a .potential array of about 40,000,000 nfcn. It was said 8.000.000 could be mobilized in 48 hours and 81.000,000 w eretrffined reserves; and that 8.000 airplanes and a million tons of warships were ready. The Franco Russlan treaty came up In the French senate and was ratified by a huge majority. It is this pact that Hitler gave as his excuse for remilitarizing the Rhineland, asserting that it was a violation of the Locarno treaty, being aimed at Germany. It to the final link in the “Iron ring" around the relch which France has been forging. . At first the British government’s response to France's demands for full ■ •■in*-- - '"'t 1 out and not'j&ttFiMvJv., arrant and Flandin. After conferences with Prime Minister Baldwin and other ministers, CapL Anthony Eden, the young foreign secretary, appeared before the house of commons and declared any attack on France or Belgium in violation of the Locarno pact would compel Britain to go to their assistance. He added, however, that there was no reason to suppose “the present German action Implies a threat of* hostilities.” Then he indicated Britain was willing to consider Hitler’s proposals for new peace covenants. The British statesmen seemed so calm in the crisis that there was reason to believe they knew in advance what Hitler Intended to do. When Flandin and the other Locarno signatory representatives arrived in London, the attitude of the British cabinet changed and grew decidedly stiffer. HITLER was not represented at either the Locarno conference or the session of the league council in London. He himself, having precipl Rated the crisis, made his triumphal apr>earance in t lie I Rhineland and then fl -awaited events. His dramatic and sudden ’ denunciation of the iWfl Locarno treaty was accomplished I n a speech before the IKwH reichstag and in for-' mal announcements to |L gj the ambassadors in Berlin of the nations Adolf Hitler concerned. He asserted that the troops he sent into the Rhineland comprised a “symbolic” army only, and that the relch. while ready to defend itself, was wholly desirous of peace. To prove this he offered a plan which includes: A demilitarised strip of German. French and Belgian land; a 25y<str non-aggression treaty among Germany, France and Belgium, with Great Britain and Italy as guarantors; inclusion of the Netherlands In the system of pacta; an air pact with the western powers; a non-aggression pact with Germany’s eastern neighbors, including Lithuania; and return of Germany to the League of Nations after her equality to established and her sovereignty restored. France’s reply to this was that, having just violated one treaty. Hitler could not be trusted to observe another; and anyway. France would not even listen to the relebsfuehrer’s new proposals until he had withdrawn Ills troops from the Rhineland. The French army was moved toward the frontier and the “Maginot line” of fortifications and underground passages was fully manned. This system of defenses has been criticized because it requires so many troops that the army is rendered virtually stationary—what has been called in Paris “the concrete army. ’ Remaining forces would "be Insufficient for offensive movement But this fault might be disregarded If France gets the expected millions of soldiers from her allies. r»HIEF JUSTICE ALFRED A.

The judge said the subpoena served on the telegraph company by the committee, calling for copies of telegrams “goes way beyond" the committee’s powers. Next day William Randolph Hearst, newspaper publisher, began a fight in court to keep an original confidential telegram out of the hands of the Black committee; and the American Newspaper Publishers’ association denounced the reported seizure of that telegram, which was to one of Mr. Hearst’s editors.

President Roosevelt announced that Mr. Davis would leave soon on a trip to Europe make a special study for the government of economic conditions bearing on the agricultural plans for this Country. Critics of the administration Immediately assumed that Mr. ana Wallace had disagreed and that the former was being gently edged out of the picture. This Mr. Wallace warinly denied, asserting there had been no friction and that he bad deep affection for Mr. Davis and the sincerest respect for his ability and Integrity. In announcing the assignment, Mr. Roosevelt said: “In requesting him to make this study for our government. Secretary Wallace and I have had In mind the distinguished service Mr. Davis has given American agriculture, especially during the last two and onehalf years. As administrator he has been directing governmental efforts which, to a considerable degree, were made necessary by changes in the European outlets for American farm products. “Information to be gathered by him at close hand as to the precise nature and extent of these economic changes abroad to expected to assist greatly In developing American farm programa."

POWERS of the federal trade commission to investigate unfair trade practices will be greatly broadened by the Wheeler biR approved by the senate interstate commerce committee. It is vigorously opposed by the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, the National Association of Manufacturers and the American Newspaper Publishers’ association. The measure would: Make “deceptive acts and practices in commerce” unlawful in addition to “unfair methods of competition” specified in existing law. Expressly give the commission authority to proceed “upon its own initiative," as well as that of the President, or either house of congress as now* provided. Include persons and partnerships as well as corporations within the scope of the commission’s authority to investigate business practices and conditions In interstate and foreign commerce. Redefine “documentary evidence” to Include “books of account financial and corporate records." and make such records subject to commission subpoena. COMMUNISTS and radicals who appeared as representatives of the Workers’ Alliance of America went before WPA Administrator Hopkins and made a series of demandsthat were all coldly turned down by that gentleman. These included the dismissal of Victor F. Ridder, New York WPA director; no cut hi the 3.500.000 persons on works relief, and full union pay and union hours for persons on relief and pay for sick leaye. They also demanded that all employed, whether or not on relief rolls, be given WPA work. IN RECENT financing.operations the government sold $1355.643.550 in bonds and notes, according to Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau. The offerings, largest since the Victory bond issue of 1919. were heavily oversubscribed by banks. This borrowing brings the public debt up to the record figure of $31,413,000,000. The treasury’s cash balance is increased to $2,675,000,000. The funds will finance New Deal spending in the near future, partially defray bonus costs and retire $450,000,000 worth of treasury bills falling due March 16.

Also in the District Supreme court, 66 producers of soft coal attacked the Guffey coal control act as unconstitutional In its entirety on the ground that it Invades the rights of the states and deprives producers of their property without due- process of law. The producers argued that much of the coal mined in each individual state is sold directly within that state and does not move In Interstate Channels.

National Topics Interpreted /O by William Brvckart ffillMig National Press Building Washington, D. C.
Washington. — President Roosevelt has very neatly called the bluff of his critics that he to Hot Potato wasting billions from for Congresa the treasury and doing nothing to replace it With much less ballyhoo than ordinarily- precedes the presentation of- - legislation to congress, the President sent a message to the Capitol calling for new tax levies approximating a billion dollars in yield and tn so doing dropped into the laps of the bouse and senale critics one of the hottest potatoes they have ever been called upon to handle. If one were to characterize the play Ln the. language of baseball, since spring is here, I believe one could say that congress either must play ball or let the runners score. It was the greatest tax bill ever submitted in peace time. Whether the proposals the President has made are economically sound or whether the levies he thinks advisable will do the job he expects of them, of course, remains to be seen. But the fact cannot be dodged that Mr. Roosevelt has figuratively settled down around the ears of those who have constantly challenged the waste Inherent in his vast reform and recovery program with a stralght-from-the-shoulder demand upon congress that it vote new taxes. It is a most Interesting situation, politically. In nearly a score of years of Washington reportorial experience, I cannot recall having seen so much squirming and wriggling as well as fretting and mumbling among representatives and senators. It to only natural that they do not wish to go into a campaign for re-election when there Is the certainty that here, there and everywhere they will be confronted with heckling as to their vote for new taxes —assuming they will vote terrifically heavy levies as the President has suggested, and as present indications seem to assure. They have no heart for a tax Increase at this time. But, to repeat, they are faced with a situation in which they must either vote for new and heavier taxes or else they will be forced to swallow many long winded speeches In condemnation of the President’s course. • • • Whatever the merits of the Roosevelt proposals may be, there Is no course open for his Force Hands opponents except to ©/ Opponents support him In the general move to pay as you go. Unless they support these new tax levies, all of the howling and the shooting and tumult about a reduction In the treasury deficit becomes just so much belly-wash. Opponents may differ trith the President as to the details of his tax plan but the situation he has created for them compels that they stand with him. To do otherwise would be not only Inconsistent but rather dumb. Frank Kent, the able news commentator, summarized one phase of this situation the other day by saying: “It makes no difference that the situation which compels the imposition of new and heavy taxes is largely Mr. Roosevelt’s fault And it makes no difference that the move Is forced by the exigencies of his campaign for reelection and is designed to spike the most damaging charge against him—that he has piled the debt mountain high anl by terrific expenditures menaced the national solvency. All that and more may be perfectly true; but for the Republicans and his non-polttl-ca! critics, who have been assailing Mr. Roosevelt for months because of his failure to balance the budget to either obstruct or hold back now that the President urges congress to provide by taxation the money to pay for the vast gifts It has voted would be beyond the limit In political Insincerity and hypocrisy.” In other words, there nearly to no alternative for opponents of the President’s policies. They must show their sincerity by going through with him In the toying of new taxes. I do not mean by that statement that It to necessary for them to accept without argument the exact levies w,hlch he has proposed. If they were not in accord with the taxes he proposes, they would not be serving their constituencies unless they so stated, but if they object to the levies he has offered, let them bring forward substitute proposals that will produce a revenue yield in a like amount They cannot afford to criticize and then refuse to offer constructive propositions tn turn. • • • On the other hand. It seems to be the consensus among Washington observers that Nr. RooseBlamos " «it ought not to be High Court «Howed to get away with one declaration which he made In submitting hto tax proposals to congress. He said that the necessity for these new taxes a rose from the Supreme court decision Invalidating the processing taxes upon which the Agricultural Adjustment administration and Its subsidies to agriculture was predicated. Os course, that may be true at the moment, but, as one frequently hears pointed out In Washington conversation, the President used the bounties to farmers and the AAA itself as one of hto keystone policies. The fact that it was unconstitutional surely cannot be said to be the fault of the Supreme court and yet that was the implication In the President's message. Likewise, the President hinted that a part of the taxes was due to congressional action in passing the bonus, which be vetoed and congress made operative over that veto. Again, I hear it questioned that congress is actually to blame. It to being said with great frequency that had Mr. Roosevelt made the fight against payment of the bonus this year that be did a year ago, it to almost inconcievable that congress would have passed It over hto veto. It to being said to this connection that if Mr. Roosevelt really had de--1
sired to kill the cash payment of the bonus, his stalwart leaders in the house and senate could hardly have afforded to refuse bls request to vote against ft Instead of that situation, the record shows that such recognized spokesmen as Senator Robinson of Arkansas, the Democratic leader in the senate. Senator Harrison of Mississippi, Senator Byrnes of South Carolina and Senator Radcliffe of Maryland, a personal friend, all voted to pass the bonus over the President’s veto. I may not be thoroughly acquainted with the maneuvers of politicians but I cannot believe these men would have turned their backs on the President in the bonus fight unless they entertained a feeling that he did not seriously object • • • So ft simmers down that the men who a year ago and two years ago voted the President Taxpayers almost limitless powthe Goat ® r » n <i limitless funds to deal with an emergency are now compelled, If they Intend ever to be statesmen, to stick by, vote the taxes and take It on the chin if that Is to be the reaction 'from the voters. After all. It is merely the taxpayers who are the goats and as usual the taxpayers have not a great voice in their own defense. As to the President’s tax proposals themselves. congress is asked to levy an unprecedented type of tax on undistributed corporation profits. New processing taxes to replace those outlawed by the Supreme court, being designed to be constitutional, are proposed and a tax which the President described as a “windfall” tax to reprover a considerable part of the old processing taxes returned to taxpayers was suggested. He asked also that levies be laid on dividends which are now exempt from normal tax on Individual Incomes. The “windfall” tax Is designed to offset the action of the Supreme court which ordered the return of the processing taxes as having been illegally collected. In other words, the administration Is attempting to get by one method what the Supreme court said it could not get in the manner it employed. The tax on undistributed profits of corporations is the center of all kinds of controversy already. Opponents of thlsjevy maintain that If the government forces corporations to, pay taxes o/ resenve funds they have ? laid aside for-JJtorproverbtal rainy day, such as we ifavX experienced for the last six years, nohe of them can stand the gaff of another depression. Mr. Roosevelt contendedXthat bis tax proposal in this direction, wtjich would take away approximately one-third of such reserves, was designed only to prevent the piling up of cash by corporations instead of distribution of those funds to stockholders. . There will be much hauling and filling, many charges and countercharges, much maneuvering and manipulation as congress mulls over the new tqx MIL It will pass some kind of new taxes and citizens will begin early next year to take out of-their pockets money to pay off the deficits of the reform and recovery program. • * * Some 75 years ago, the government organized mal) service to inland points without railroad faStar Route cilitles, calling this Mail Service new service the Star route. This service has been continuously in operation In scores of communities and It is continuing to operate exactly on the same basis as it did three-quarters of a century ago. So. this is a plea in behalf of those who carry the mail on the Star routes and for better service for Stkr route patrons. There is a bill in congress now which proposes to provide better service for those carriers and for patrons of those routes. When one recalls that the boasted phrase of the Post Office department—“the mails must go through” —had its origin with the Star route i carriers, it seems that the time Is long since gone by to consider justice for I these faithful servants. It seems, further. that if there are real “forgotten men” In this country, they truly are the carriers on the Star routes and the patrons of those routes. Even In the face of all of the hullabaloo that Senator Black. Alabama Democrat, to making about lobbying, those who desire to see justice done for the Star route service, those who believe that the entire postal service should be considered, and not just a part of it, should do their utmost to have congress act on this legislation. • W««t«rn New»i»per Unloa.
