Mrs. Calvin Coolidge |4. Charles Curtis Hitler’s withdrawal from the League of Nations reverberates around the troubled and fearful globe, and each nation’s reaction is an augury of something to come whose shape is as yet nebulous. The first serious wave of revolt against the NRA is springing np in the western plains as farmers of five states rebel against the economic trap in which they are now fioun-, 'dering. Strikes and riots infest in- dusty, and the power at Washing ton are facing the first grim test of the New Deal. The Rockefeller Commission makes sane suggestions about handling the liquor trafnc, while various states debate their own programs. It ap pears that Massachusetts will have taverns where a man can buy a drink. Dry agents no longer break seized contraband; they save it for the moister times to come. Maryland has a lynching party; five Cambridge gangsters shoot an old man for a thousand dollars; Aimee leaves ns. and wild tales are bruited about of 90-foot eels, and seas full of snakes National [{__Wide interest by farmers causes by low prices of they sell and higher prices of eminent permission, unless he buys one of the existing plants, and no present operator may enlarge his mill without government sanction. In line with rigid production control and price-firing in oil industry. Plan to limit salaries of business leaders announced soon after Pecora expose of Wiggin salary before Senate banking committee. Albert H. Wiggin. head of the Chase National Bank, was shown through Pecora’s questions to have received $1,500,000 from the bank in five years, and to have been awarded $100,000 a year for life when he retired last year. This while the bank was losing money. Other questions brought out the fact that Wiggin sold huge blocks of the bank stock in a pool th’-m’.-rh a privately owned corporation. Following Wiggin expose and Presi dent Roosevelt's inquiry into high movie salaries last week, the action of the federal trade commission in asking 2000 leading American firms to furnish data on the salaries of their executives and directors is taken to indicate definite action to reduce six-figure salaries. Much speculation as to what will be done if firms consider their payrolls private business, since government use of income tax figures will not tell the whole story. Output of refined oil limited by Sec retary Ickes. Repeal Embargo on imported medicinal liquors ordered by President Roosevelt on evidence that recent, .importations have increased sharply’ President rejected proposal to permit importation of beverage liquors in bond pending date when they may be sold legally. Date' expected to be 1 Dec. 5. Rockefeller survey advises whiskey at $1 per qhart. saying low cost is only way to defeat bootlegger. Dollar to be .split as follows:. Production and sale. 45 cents; profit of 50 cents; 5 cents gov ernment tax. Thus system of corrup tion of police officials and politicians would disappear for lack of funds. Sur vey plans total national profit of S700,- 000,000 a year. Report says most of the total taxes should be levied upon the manufacturer and the retailer in such a manner that it cannot be shitted to the. consumer. State licensing sug gested, with powers vested in a single board. Traditional “drink on the house” disapproved.

This loan is a violation, at least m spirit, of the League of Nations stand on the Japanese acquisition of Man- chukuo, which, was derived from the Stimson doctrine of non-recognition of territorial gains acquired contrary to treaty stipmatoins. The French capital, although it comes as an indirect loan, is the first foreign money that has come to the state that is under the league's stigma. Austria rejoices that Dollfuss has kept her free from ties with Germany, since such a tie might have drawn her into an equivocal position. League of Nations says Germany can not quit since the covenant of the league is a part of the treaty of Ver sailles. Ex-Kaiser says it was a matter of honor for Germany to withdraw irom the league, that it was the logical result or allied treatment. Four-Power Pact—is now’ dead.
