(By The Associated PresS.)


A faint possibility Of d new peace
move was seen today in renewal of
discussions in the italian press of the
Franco-British plan for the settlement
of the Italo-Ethiopiah dispute.
Observers of the situation were in-
terested in this trend, for the press
of Italy largely reflects government
opinion, and they believed, therefore,
that this discussion might Indicate in-
terest in peace on the part of the gov
eminent.
AS for actual fighting, there ap-
peared to be little, other than bonn
ing of Magalo by Italian airplanes as
reported by the Ethiopian govern
ment.
The League of Nations committee
of Oil experts, gauging the possible
ties of enforcing an oil embargo a.
gainst Italy, apparently agreed that
such sanctions could he effective over
italian use of oil substitutes.
The question of practical enforce
ment of an oil embargo, however, APP
parently remained unsettled.
With statistics before the commit
tee indicating an increase in Ameri-
can oil sales to Italy, the experts also
faced the problem Of the United
States attitude toward an embargo.

Compact for Crow

Regulate Acreage
from Year to Year

Washington, Feb. 7.-(AP)-Repre~
sentative Virgil Chapman, Democrat,
Kentucky, moved today to bring
about hurley tobacco acreage control
through compact between the pro-
DUNG states in event the new admin
istration soil conservation measure,
pending as a substitute to the AAA,
should fail of enactment or he held
unconstitutional.
Chapman introduced bill to per-
NIT Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana,
Ohio, West Virginia, North Carolina
and Missouri to enter into compact
through legislative enactment to con-
troll acreage. A similar bill applying
to states producing bright flue-cured
tobacco has been introduced by Rep
resentative John H. Kerr, Democrat;
North Carolina.
The proposed compact, Chapman
said, would enable the tobacco pro-
ducers to continue to receive benefits
similar to those under the AAA.

PROBLEMS
BECOMING WORSE
Loeb's Staying and Burning
of 20 Negroes in South
Incite Comment
By LESLIE EICHEL

New York, Feb. 7-America's prison
problem is becoming steadily worse.
There are more prisoners now than
ever in the nations history-l935
having boosted the total by an alarm
ing figure.
Penologists say that Americans APP
proach the problem with the wrong
attitude. Instead of getting at the
causes of crime, Americans raise a
historical cry to convict people. AND
when the people are convicted there
is sadistic tendency to force dire
punishments on them. Thus, bitter
ness against society rises, and crime
increases.
Devils islands, such as Alcatraz in
San Francisco harbor, with their COM
plete isolation, simply enrage ana
craze men-as observe the recent up
rising. The federal government sup
pressed all the facts concerning that
strike" but enough leaked out Tor
one to envisage the futility that ex-
lists there, and the harsh measures
that are used to put down the pro-
tests. Perhaps it would be better 10
execute men at once rather than 10
submit them to horrible punlshments'

Loeb in Illinois Statesville prison TO

HUEY LONG PARSON

Rev. George L. K. Smith To
Launch "Share-Our-
Wealth" Campaign
Nv CHARLES p. STEWART


washington, Feb. 7-Political and
journalistic observers, who attended
the recent gathering of southern
constitutional Democrats, as they
call themselves, at Macon, (Ga.) are
saying that the country will make q
great mistake if it fails to reckon
with the Rev. Gerald L. K. Smith rs
q national campaign factor OF import
ance.
The Rev. Mr.. Smith will be recalled
as the Louisiana clergyman VINO ie1t
the pulpit to join in Senator Huey z.
Longs share-our-wealth crusade, who
preached the "Kingfish's" funeral SER
mon, and who now claims by inherit
ance, the leadership of the share-our
wealth movement.
Outside the Creole state, Americans
have not had much chance hitherto
to assess the southern cleric, but some
excellent Judges of an individuals pos
sibilities of success in public life had
an opportunity to see and hear him at
Macon, and all of those with whom
l talked, considerable number, speak
of him very respectfully.
BETTER THAN LONG?
When I say respectfully" l mean
that they are respectful of what they
conceive to be his potentialities as a
political influence.

the Macon delegation from Washing
