From all the facts and information
available, there seems no justification
for war Of aggression on the part
Of Italy and for the invasion of Eth
iopian territory"
Labor outside of America has
spoken equally as emphatically. A
joint resolution of the international
Federation Of Trade Unions and the
Labor and Socialist international
calls on the world to join in protest
against Italy's move, saying in part:
"The International Federation Of
Trade Unions and the Labor and
Socialist International note with the
greatest anxiety and aarming increase
greatest anxiety and alarming increase
of war in Abyssinia to be feared at
any moment, and that the efforts
made to find peaceful solution Of the
dispute between Italy and Abyssinia
have as yet produced no result.
@The two internationals would
therefore utter a very urgent warn
ing, laying particular emphasis on the
consequences which would be bound
to follow on such a war. The peace
Of the world and particularly Of Eur
ope is an indiyisible whole!
1T would be intolerable if the
League of Nations having appointed
a commission to inquire into the meth
DDS Of applying sanctions against uni
lateral breaches of treaties, would not
Immediately enforce upon Itlay, the
aggressor, the prescriptions of its
covenant
*#
If the aggressor knows with GER
tainty that all the sanctions which
the covenant provides will be applied,
this is the best peace guarantee.
"The two internationals therefore
declare with emphasis that all those
must be branded as accomplice in the
war who have not done everything
in their power to prevent it.
TO give Fascist Italy everything
she needs for war, and to prevent any
delivery Of arms or war-material to
menaced Abyssinia making it impos-
sible for this country to defend its
own territory, means on the part of
states adhering to the League Of Ma
tions an open support to the aggres-
sor.
''The two inte1nationals appeal to
the whole world to join with one
voice in the protest against Fascist
Italy, which is on the point of break
ing the peace, and they call on the

THE GROWTH OF GIANT
CORPORATIONS

Robert H. Jackson, counsel to the
Bureau Of Internal Revenue, gave
some facts about corporations to the
senate finance committee which
doubtless were new and startling to
many members of that committee, and
still more 50 to the average we'll
informed citizen.
He told the senators that there is
no evidence that corporations will
not grow in size even beyond their
present dimensions, and much evidence
that they will-if allowed to do so.
BY comparison between 1926 and
1882, " he said, I'VE find that there was
an increase in the concentration Of
corporate income.
IN 1926, II per cent of the total
number Of corporations reporting net
income accounted for 69.8 per cent
of all net income Of all corporations.
In 1882, it took only IL per cent Of
the corporations reporting net income
to account for 72.6 per cent Of the
aggregate net income reported that
year
Turning from income to property,
Mr.. Jackson showed that So per cent
Of all the assets owned BY corpora
tions are held BY 2 Of / per cent
two-tenths Of one per cent-of all the
corporation-owned property in Amer
lea. Six hundred and eighteen com
painless, out of all the tens of thou
sands IN the country, own more than
half the total corporate wealth.
If one wants to sense what this
means, suppose 618 men cast ma
jority Of all the votes in the United
States. Suppose the number of vot-
ers was shrinking from year to year.
Would the American people tolerate
such situation any longer than it
took them to devise some means Of
ending such colossal piling up of
economic power?

WHAT NEXT?

A switch engine run by butane gas,
said to be first Of its kind, has been
built for the Acme Steel Company
by the Plymouth Locomotive Works,
and is reported to have demonstrated
its ability to perform in eight hours
the work which it previously took two
steam locomotives Ia hours to do. The
butane gas engine costs more to op-
crate than Diesel unit, but is ex-
pected to prove economical at the
steel company's works, where butane
gas is widely used in plant operations.

Bank and known in 1929 as a high
flying stock promoter, has been held
guilty Of income tax frauds by the
Y. S. Board Of Tax Appeals. Here
are some Of his misdemeanors:
He sold" 18,3oo bank shares to
his wife to establish loss though
he still got dividends on them.
He failed to report these dividends
for 1880 as taxable income.
He drew $668,666.e7 from the Ma
tional City Bank management fund.-
in 1925, and did not report it.
The Board Of Tax Appeals says
that each and all Of these doings are
fraudulent; and that though Mitchell
was acquitted on a criminal charge.
the board has the right to assess the
penalty prescribed BY law.
There are two reasons why he will
get very little sympathy.
For one, when stocks were kiting
50 that even the more nearly sober
heads in Wall street wanted to put
brakes on the speculation, Mitchell
offered to lend millions on the market
to enable the gamblers to continue
their game.
For another, under MitchelIs man
agement, stocks in which the bank was
interested were sold to employees Of
the bank at boom prices. The install
ments were still taken out of their
paycheeks when the stocks had drop
ped to fraction Of the former price,
and the wages Of the employees had
been cut.

On the other hand, much legislation
fails because there is no such force
to urge it on.
There are plenty of times, of course,
when all the genius in the world can
not prevail against the odds built
up by enemies and big interests.
Some legislation has failed in this
congress because the odds simply were
too great. Some congressman will have
to answer for that.
Justice can stand up on her ped
estal, with bandage over her eyes
and weep until the bandage is soaked
and dripping, for all some congress
men care.
For those, the axe of voter deter
mination should fall, so that their
political heads come off neatly but
completely.
Congress is what the people per-
nit it to be. At times the people have
seemed stupefed enough to permit
anything but then comes an awak-
ening.
1t is time to wakeup about some of
these congressional stupidities.

The Cherry
T Where with eur
roo Little Hatchet
we tell the truth
about many things, sometimes pro-
foundly, sometimes aippantIy,
sometimes recklessIy.

Congress will adjourn soon. Mem
bers will go home. Some will wish
they didn't have to.
Some are going to face some mean
questions when they get among the
home folks.
Trouble is, the home folks won't be
we'll enough informed about the tricks
Of congressman to ask the questions
that would really get at the roots of
the trouble.
There are, also, too many plausible,
nice-sounding explanations.
However, a great deal Of work has
been done, and there will be some
praise coming to most members.
Much of the trouble has been more
because Of petty and mean personal
spites than for reasons such as should
actuate statesmen.
! Perhaps Carter Glass will be able
to get by with the home folks, but he
has lot of questions coming to him,
or should have.
Maybe the postal clerks will put
some posers to Senator Mcclellan.
They'll have plenty of reason.
Along the line there are a dozen
who should be stood in the market
place and compelled to answer for
their conduct.
Not about such things as the pif-
fling cigar box incident, which was
hooey, but about the real stoppage
of legislation for no better reasons
than animate ward politicians.
/ Some congressman are only gradu-
] ate ward politicians anyway, taking
their old habits and frame of mind
with them.
It's all matter of getting the
votes and lot of the success in that
good old game lies in the shortness of
| public memory.
| An A. F. Of L. convention could
give congress cards, spades and little
casino for getting business done-and
on high plane.
But here's trick. Good organi-
zation of forces by good organizers
can hurry bills along when otherwise
they would wither up and die. An ex-
ample is the 40-hour week for postal
employees.
Back of the steering of that bill
was Gilbert E. Hyatt, legislative man
for the Post Office Clerks, and one of
the shrewdest men that ever fixed a
fishy eye on piec of phoney business.
| Engineer, postal clerk, newspaper
man, as much a star at one thing as
at another, Hyatt is a horn genius
for knowing what men can be induced
to do.
His work is steering the 4o-hour
bill through, over the plans of power
| full foes, is a piece of work fit to
stand as a classic job.
A good deal of successful legisla-
tion is made SO by some persistent
genius who pleads and educates and
sees to it that nobody ever is allowed

to have done
