"NO! YES! ROOF!"
ROME, Italy — In such democratic European strongholds in London and Paris, there has been talk lately of making "concessions" (restoration of war-lost colonies) to Germany to induce her to return to the League of Nations; and if Italy were also out of the league, she might secure "concessions" (recognition of her conquest of Ethiopia) for rejoining. But, although Benito Mussolini has often been on the point of quitting the league in form as he has in spirit, Italy was still a member last week when Fascists in Rome were suddenly summoned to their local clubs. Marching 100,000 strong in pouring rain to the square in front of Il Duce's Venizia palace, they heard Orator Mussolini declaim from his balcony:
"We have not forgotten and we will not forget the opprobrious attempt to throttle the Italian people by sanctions during the war in Ethiopia) that was perpetrated at Geneva." Then, having given his audience an adequate cue, the dictator asked whether Italy should remain in the league: "Shall it be inside?"
"No!" shouted his 100,000 listeners.
"Shall it be outside?"
"Yes!"
"Now," bellowed Benito Mussolini zone in Taiwan Strait, the Dollar Line's 21,936-ton "President Hovever" grounded a few hundred yards off Japan's Hushoto Island 500 miles north of Munich. There with 1,000 passengers and crew safely ashore and on other ships the $2,000,000 inner war room being battered to pieces.
MEETINGS—
NASHVILLE, Tennessee—Dudley Leigh Aman Baron Marley, deputy speaker of Britain's house of lords, last week watched his first United States football game in Nashville. Commented her: "The game is considerably slower than our rugby game because of the frequent committee meetings in which the players indulge."
EYE FOR AN EYE—
NEW ORLEANS, Louisiana—In New Orleans' Charity Hospital last week were two destitute farmer - patients — John Wesley Amos, 68, and Frank Chabina, 19, both suffering blindness in their left eyes. Quick-lime had scared the youth's a cataract bleached the oldster's. Said John Wesley Amos to Charity Hospital eye surgeons: "Frank's been very good to me. Not many young fellows would botter to cheer up an old man like the way Frank's done. If you figure one of my eyes can help Frank see, I want you to take my eye and give it to him."
Ophthalmologists therefore cucled the old man's left eye, stripped it of part of its transparent cornea which they at once money invesied "a two years, nearness even ten in advance of any hope of peace And business could probably the money if given "a reasonable degree of certainty" on things as labor, taxes, legislation experimentation. needs positive, reliable assuance that the complicated terms conditions under which it function are finally deterred.
The manufacturers drew a labor platform, asked that civil and state restrictions on use of labor injunctions be ceased. They asked that the Byrnes amended to ban interstate portion of "strike-makers" well as strike breakers. asked that a long list of strikes declared illegal, including down strikes, general strike strikes for a closed shop or check-off, strikes where grievance strikes accompanied continuous and systematic violence and intimidation, stop to prevent the use of motor equipment or services.

will not forget the opportunities to tempt to throttle the Italian people (by sanctions during the war in Ethiopia) that was perpetrated at Geneva.” Then, having given his audience an adequate cue, the dictator asked whether Italy should remain in the league: “Shall it be inside?”
“Not!” shouted his 100,000 listeners:
“Shall it be outside?”
“Yes!”
“Now,” bellowed Benito Mussolini, “we draw away from the tottering temple where they are not working for peace but paying the way for war! . . . The herds of the great democracies leave us profoundly indifferent.” As usual, the moment Il Duce uttered the word “democracies,” the whole 100,000 cried “Bool!”
It requires two years for any member state’s notice of withdrawal from the League of Nations to become legally effective.
ACCIDENTS—
CASTLECARY, Scotland — As darkness settled down on the little hamlet of Castlecary late one afternoon last week, the local train from Dundee pulled into the London & North Eastern Railway station. Around it swirled a December blizzard that bletted out the lights of the village, stalled the train. Without a second’s warning the mile-a-minute Edinburgh-Glasgow express following the local crashed into it. Working by the light provided by the burning debris of shattered wooden coaches, rescuers removed 91 injured, 35 dead. It was Britain’s worst railroad disaster in two decades.
Meanwhile, enroute from Kobe to Manila and steaming down the rock-strewn coast of Formosa to avoid the Japanese-controlled war

General Hugh Johnson, who
me: "Its heart was right but
the draftsmanship was terrible.
This is a pity because in my talks with important individuals I could plainly see the most astonishing change in thinking. Some of the worst old hardshells have softened up."
N. A. M. made a peace gesture at the wind-up banquet, when Chairman Colby Mitchell Chester proposed a three-way conference between business, government and labor. No official acknowledgment from Washington was expected and none was forthcoming; but from Joseph Patrick Kennedy, the man whom it considers its best friend in the New Deal, business received a sharp reproof. Said he: "How on earth can business people hope for any improvement if they go on crying bloody murder at every remedy the president proposes? The president has a splendid program to meet this business recession... a program... that business people in this country have want- ed.
But most of them just go on howling, instead of accepting the program at its face value..."
As an example of the kind of "nonsense" he meant, Kennedy related a recent conversation with a "pretty powerful man," who thought President Roosevelt should make a reassuring statement. Said Kennedy acidly: "He'd told me only a few months before that he wouldn't believe a word the president said if he swore to it on a pile of Hebles."
CAPTAIN SANDERS' BOYS—COLUMBIA, South Carolina—From the window of his office in the state penitentiary at Columbia, Prison Guard Captain Olin Sanders last week shouted to Corporal Charles L. Christmus on duty in the yard below:
"Charlie, these boys have got me tied up in here... They've got a gun in my ribs and want a car to get out.

who had trapped unarmed Captain Sanders in his office. Since Captain Sanders had given instructions to disregard any order he might give under the circumstances, Corporal Christmas called Prison Superintendent J. S. Wilson. Colonel Wilson called South Carolina's 41-year-old Governor Olin Dewitt Johnston, who hurried to the prison. Toward the window of Captain Sander's office marched the governor with his hands keep in his overcoat pockets.
"Take your hands out of your pocket!" ordered a convict. The governor obeyed, then argued, pleaded, urged that the convicts come out and surrender.
"Get us a car. Open the gates. Otherwise it will be too bad for Sanders," came back the answer. The governor made one more plea to the convicts:
"If you boys will walk out of there and let Captain Sanders walk out first, I'll see that noth-

A growl was the only answer. Said Governor Johnston to the guardsmen: "Go ahead boys, let them have it."
Half-a-dozen gas grenades arched through the window. A moment later six licked convicts stumbled out, but Sanders was not with them. Guardsmen found him on the floor of his office in a pool of blood, covered with fresh stob wounds. A few minutes later in the prison hospital, Captain Sanders died.
