while smaller auto companies suffer-
ed sharp reduction in profits. He
notes a similar situation in the steel
industry. He calls attention to the
fact that the securities of the lead
ing corporations continued to advance
through 1926 reaching a level 31h
times as high as in 1921 while shares
OF smaller companies are lower than
at the beginning of 1926. He con-
cludes:
The. larger company possesses
superior capital resources, usually
has control over sources of suppIv
of materials and is frequently able
to produce more economically if
1t can operate continuously at near
ly full volume of output. A period
of sustained general prosperity ac-
cOmpanied by a declining trend of
commodity prices like the present
period produces the conditions that
favor the large companies"
This banker review of the indus
trial situation should be carefully
scrutinized by labor. In spite of its
affirmation of continuing prosperity
is suggests that the period of ex-

THE FARCE OF REFERRING
DISPUTES TO LEAGUE
OF NATIONS

Albania, the vassal of Italian fascism and
British Imperialism, has applied to the league Of
nations for review of its dispute with Jugoslavia
Italy consents to review of the specific incident
of the arrest by the Albanian government to a
member of the Jugoslavia diplomatic staff, but
sets the limits of the investigation. Mussolini re-
fuses to permit the league to take up the basic
question of the Triana treaty which delivered AL
bania to Italy as a base for operations against
Jugoslavia.
Thus again the inability of the league to defend
the interests of small nations is manifest. In all
the leagues history there is not single instance
of decision involving an imperiast power be-
ing settled any other way than in favor of the
dominant mperialist groups in the league council.
1t is an instrument for legalzing the pilaging of
small nations by the great powers and its pretense
to impartially review the grievances of these
countries is farccal in the extreme.
