MTJSSOLINI FORTIFIES ALBANIA,
PLOTS COOQUEST ASIA MINOR

derfoot in Mussolini's next at
tempt at highway robbery.
Kemal said the other day in the
parliament at Ankhara, referring
to the threat by the Fascist I'M
perialism of Rome: "I will scratch
out the eyes of anyone who dares
look at Asia Minor. l will cnop
off the claw of any imperlaIst
gangster who dares to stretch out
a hand towards Turkish territory.
We covet not an inch of other
peoples land, but woe the state
that forces a war upon us"
1t might be said in passing that
the Turks are not Ethioplans
armed with nothing better than
sticks and old flint-locks. The
Turks are admittedly the best sol
diers in Europe.
Not only have Turkey, Greece
and Jogoclavia entered a pact to-
gether, the so-called Balkan En-
tente, but the governments OF
these countries have decided to let
their general SCd1IS OC14NCACtCO AA4A
mediately on what measures to
take to meet MussOlini's aggres-
Give designs.
Great Britain in the meantime is
renovating the Greek navy and re
stocking the Greek naval arsenals
with the design of strengthening
the government of Athens and
making Greece a sort of counter
balance to Mussolini's position Of
dominance in the eastern Medi-
terranean.
What is disquieting Europe most
is the conviction that MussolinIs
conquest of Ethiopia was not the
end but the beginning of a cam
paign of military pressure and in
timidation that must ultimately
lead to war. His successful bluff
in Ethiopia has made the Fascist
leader believe he is invincible.
But Europe ought also to have
learned a lesson from Ethiopia
that peace talk is not enough when
Fascist imperialisms go on the
rampage. Peace must be defended
if not ever greater disasters are
to result.

GROWING LESS,
IMPORTING MORE
AAA Reduced Grain Acre
age While Imports Jump;
Tariff no Solution

In scoring the contradiction of
growing less and importing more,
Farm Research, Inc, points out
in it's June issue of Facts for
Farmers that the AAA reduced
wheat seedlings in 1885 by 10 per
cent below the 1930-32 average,
while wheat imports jumped to 80
million bushels as compared with
10 million in 1892. Corn acreage
in 1885 was cut by % per cent or
IL million acres, and corn imports
rose from 344 thousand bushels in
1882 to 43 million bushels in 1885.
The administration has blamed
the increase in farm imports upon
the drought, but Farm Research
points out that the AAA welcomed
the drought as partner in it's re-
duction campaign instead of ac-
lively fighting against it.
On the other hand, high tariffs
barring farm imports could not in
crease farm income significantly
since competitive farm imports
amounted to only A per cent of the
farmers cash income even In 1885,
Higher tariff barriers would have
the effect of cutting farm exports,
which are more important than i'm
ports to the farmers income. Farm
exports in 1885 had a value treble
that of competitive farm imports,
and usually the ratio is even
higher. In 1929, for example,
1924 worth Of farm produce was
sent out of the country for every
dollars worth that came in.
The cry for restriction comes
chiefly from business interests
seeking to rally the farmers be-
hind a higher tariff movement so
that business may boost it's own
tariffs still higher. By taking one
import item, such as corn, high
tariff partisans have recently made
practice of computing the per-
centage increase and get results
showing alarming increases-1361
per cent in case of corn, for cX-
ample. Since our previous imports
of corn were negligible, the use Of
percentages gives weird and mis-
leading results. Actually corn i'm
ports in 1886 amounted to 2 per
cent of domestic production; wheat
to 6 per cent; buttere 1 per cent;
and cheese 8 per cent.
Farm Credit Administration
Withholding Crop Loans
In the same issue, Facts for
Farmers points out that the Farm
Credit Administration had paid out
less than 9 million dollars on seed
and feed loans by the end of April
though Roosevelt had promised
that Al million dollars would be
available for such loans. In other
words 81 per cent of the funds
have not yet been made available
to the farmers despite their ur-
gent need for such loans.

Wings
OVER
washingtn

Edgar Allen Poe, an early Amer
lean poet and author who wrote
Americas finest horror stories,
once wrote a poem entitled "The
Raven"
Poe's raven, a fearsome beast,
perched on windowsills and. among
other things, croaked "Nevermore."
AS far as the Department Of La
bOr is concerned the American
Federation of Labor is it's raven,
perched on it's windowsill croaking,
in dolorous fashion, "Nevermore. "
The latest croak of the A. +. of l..
to get under the skin of the sta
tisticians of the Department OF
Labor was the last monthly sur
vev of business published by the
federation.
That survey pointed out that in
dustry is rapidly recOuping its
gains, lost in the debacle of 1929,
but over 100000 men are un-
employed. Assuming the present
ratio of industrial recovery and
unemployment continues the sur
vey said, industry will bounce back
to its 1929 position and still leave
over 100000 jobless.
Those figures grated harShly OH
tender administration ears. They
called council of their very best
statisticians in an effort to choke
the croaks. The best they have
produced so far has been feeble
announcement that 225,00O work
ers have gone back to work be-
tween March and April of this
year in the 90 manufacturing and
16 non-manufacturing industries
surveyed hopefully each month by
the Department.
Of course the Department of La
Dor does not admit officially that
the prospect of doom forecast by
the A. F. of L. business analysis
has them worried. With her bright
and cherry smile, Secretary of La
Dor Perkins points to every silver
lining no matter how large the
cloud. But behind the scene the
Department of Labor is not at all
pleased. The croaks Of doom in
trude an unwelcome note in the
CHEEKY pollyanna cry of "Recov-
cry is here" that issues periodical
ly from the big marble palace of
Labor.
Il
The prospect presented by the
cold, hard figures of the A. F. cf
L. is not pleasant to contemplate.
Recent census estimates, based on
the census made in 1880, place the
population of the country at 127,-
100000 odd persons. Of these 127,-
000,O00 more than 100000 per-
sons will be without work when
factories are booming and ma
chimes are presumably manufac-
turing all that the 127, 100000 can
use.
Factory owners, that is, will say
to 100000 applicants for Jobs,

are making everything that every
body wants and can use. You

GENEVA-Drunk with his poi
son-gas victory over Ethiopia and
his mass executions Of harmless
civilians, Duce Mussolini swaggers
back into the European arena, rat
Ting his saber, banging the ta6l9
for more loot and dreaming OF the
conquest of Asia Minor. AS the
first step, Italy has begun to con
struct a line of forts and ar
dromes in Albania on the frontiers
of Greece and JugOslavia.
The forts are so obviously in
tended as jumping off places for
attacks that the government OF
Belgrade and Athens have submit
ted a secret memorandum to Ge-
neva asking what action the
League of Nations intends to take
against this new act of provoca-
ton bv the Duce of Fascisnn.
Airdromes and mobilization cen
ters are being constructed at a
point where the Balkan peninsula
is at it's narrowest and within one
hours flight from SalOnica on the
Aegean sea. In the opinion OF
military experts, Mussclini is lay
ing the foundations for an aggres"
sive military action in the days to
come when he intends to link AL
bania, which is virtually an Italian
colony, with Bulgaria, another
vassal-state Of Rome.
His main objective is Asia Mi
nor. A successful drive for Sa-
lonica would put Italy face to face
with Turkey. Asia Minor was
promised to Italy as a reward for
its participation in the Great War
on the side of the Allies. That
promise was not kept. Mussolini
who frankly puts the outbreak of
the next conflict for the redivislOn
of the worlds markets in 1889 or
1910, does not intend to let his
prey escape him next time. He is
taking first steps now.
In international circles here in
Geneva it is believed that Bull
garia and Italy have concluded a
secret treaty of aggression where
by Bulgaria is to get Macedonia
and some of the Turkish provinces
in Europe but MussOlini reserves
for himself ConstantinOple and the
coastal regions of Asia Minot with
Smyrna as capital. It is not ex-
pected that the terms of this treaty
will be carried into effect imme-
diately, but that the two partners
will await a favorable opportunity
for instance taking advantage Of
the confusion occasioned by a
world war.
Realizing the grave danger, Tur-
key has moved five infantry di-
visions to the Thracian frontier
and Kemal Ataturk has decided tc
fortify the Dardanelles. Turkey

might as we'll go jump in the
river" But those 100000 Job
less serve a very real purpose in
the present industrial system.
They constitute a reserve of en-
ployment which hangs over the
head of every worker. For with
100000 clamoring for work at
any price, the employer is at lib
erty to tell his employees, eff you
don't like the wages l pay you,
even though they don't provide
enough for you and your family to
1--we on, you can get out. I'll hire
somebody else." That threat of
the 100000 unemployed who will
be looking for work when factories
are going full constitutes greater
intimidation of workers trying to
organize than the biggest army of
private detectives and Bergoff
links ever gotten together.
So that is why employers COM
posing the owning class are willing
to foot the bill for relief, at the
same time trying to keep the bill
as low as possible. That is why
employers fight organization of
the unemployed and relief workers
with as great vigor as they
light organization of the employed
workers.
And SO the Department of La
bor is concerned. The propaganda
mills are starting to grind. Their
music, sweet to the ears of the in
dustrialist is a song Of returning
profits and booming industry.
Recovery is here" is to be the
song and the effort is being made

ployed now, how in the name of

BAD CROSSING
PASS STUDIED

Tentative decision has been
reached by the District Commis-
sioners to use a proposed 100000
grant Of the U. S. Bureau Of Pub
lie Roads to eliminate the last
main line grade crossing in the
District. The proposal involves
construction of an overpass at the
crossing on Bates Road Northeast,
between Varnum Street and
Brookland Avenue.
In addition to this construction
work, the Commissioners also pro-
pose to use portion Of the anti
cipated grant to widen the dan
gerouS underpaSs at Bladensburg
Road and Queens Chapel Road
Northeast.
A number of serious traffic mis-
haps, one Of which resulted in the
death of Motorcycle Policeman
Raymond v. Sinclair several years
ago, have occurred at the under
pass.
The money which the city
heads expect to receive for the
proposed projects is part of the
Federal fund authorized for the
elimination Of grade crossings.
