Anti-Lynch Bill Given
Definite Place On
Senate Calendar

Washington, Dec. 17-With the
debate on the farm bill dragging
out daily and requiring night SEES
sions in order to dispose of more
than one hundred amendments of
fered to it, the sponsors of the anti
iynching bill in the Senate today
felt hat the best strategy in
the interest Of passage of the bill
was to agree to the anti-lynehing
bill being number one on the cal
endar at the opening of the regu-
lar session of Congress in January.
In a conference this week at
tended by Senator Robert F. Wag-
ner of New York, Senator Fred
erick Van Mugs of Indiana, and
Senator Alben w. Barley Of Ken
lucky, majority leader, ID was
pointed out that the farm bM de-
bate had proceeded far longer
than any of the leaders had anti
eipated. 1t was stated that in some
respects, the farm bill debate had
the appearance of a filibRstsP not
only against the anti-lynching bill,
but any concrete results for the
special session called by President
Roosevelt.
Everyone comedies that the anti
iynching bill cannot fail to pass,
but all observers agree that it
can not be passed in the remaining
days of the special session.
The sponsors of the measure,
therefore, were faced with a pro-
posal to step aside for the time
being and allow the Presidents
housing bill to go through. They
agreed to do o
The agreement, however, was
not reached until Senator Barley
stated that a special resolution
would be put through the Senate
calling for action upon the anti
lynching bill on a day certain in
the january Session. There will be
Incorporated in this resolution a
statement that no bill may be sub
situted for the anti-lynching bill

therefore, more economical to buy
the goods during peace-time from
anyone who would sell them than
to assume the cost of colonial i'm
perialism.
But nations II afraid that these
materials, if foreign owned, will not
always be available even during
times of peace. There is some basis
for this fear. Nations restrict the
output and sale of raw materials,
particularly when they hold a prac-
teal monopoly over those goods.
Production controls, international
cartel limitations, export taxes and
outright embargoes have been APP
piled.
Tariffs Inhibit Trade
Protective tariffs stimulate the
demand for political possession Of
raw materials by inhibiting the
free flow of goods in international
trade. Nations cannot buy unless
they sell. World wide tariff walls
have so seriously limited the ability
of states to sell goods abroad that
they cannot acquire sufficient for
eign funds ("foreign exchange") to
buy the raw materials they want
and need. But, Of even greater
significance, perhaps, is the fear
held by these states that they will
be unable to meet future needs.
Since this fear is based upon 8
justifiable fact, is colonial expar-
sion the best solution? By no
means. 1t costs too much, it does
not assure supplies in wartime, it
aggravates international rivalres
and becomes a cause of war.
The only satisfactory solution lies
in the universal adoption of collect
i've security, the gradual elimina-
ton of trade barriers, and the es-
Establishment of an international
code of fair practices. This Is the
only solution that can offer genuine
domestic and international stability
Ia primary condition requisite for
world peace.

jurisdiction. 1t is possible to con-
slider only one of these now-the
raw material argument.
Nature did not distribute raw
materials in the earth according to
existing political boundaries.
Therefore, some few countries are
abundantly supplied with strate-
gically important raw materials,
whereas others are impoverished.
1t is as an effort to redress the bal
ance that nations seek colonies
which can supply their home def
ciencies. But why are they so
deeply concerned about these ma
terials? Because they are neces-
sary for "a the continued oper-
alton of their domestic industrial
economy and (2) the waging of
war.
Essential For War
If we grant, as We must, that
certain raw materials-coal, iron
ore, manganese and petroleum
are essential for the conduct of
war, how will the colonial posses
sion of those materials improve the
home c~ountry's position? They
must be transported to the wal
area.
The strategically significant fac
tor is not the political possession Of
the goods but the maintenance OF
