Events the World Over
Senate Passes Farm Bill With the Inflation Amendment—
Roosevelt to Ask Authority to Deal With War
Debts—Herriot Enters Conversations. ,
By EDWARD W. PICKARD
HACKED by the administration, by
D nig big Democratic majority in the
senate and apparently by the favor of
the
Sen,
perate but hopeless fight, arguing that
while “controlled” inflation, as prom¬
ised by the amendment's sponsors,
might temporarily restore a measure
of prosperity to the nation, previous
experience here and abroad showed
that control could Dot be maintained
and that the ultimate results would
be disastrous. Reed. Tydings of Mary¬
land, a Democrat, and others seemed
terribly dismayed by the prospects for
the future and their sincerity could
not be doubied.
Senator Thomas of Oklahoma him¬
self !ed the debate for the affirmative,
opening with the startling statement
that the amendment, If It prevailed,
should transfer value to the extent of
almost $200,000,000.000 from the cred¬
itor class to the debtor class. Of course,
the effect of this assertion is greatly
weakened when one realizes that our
people cannot really be divided into
such classes. There is scarcely a cred¬
itor in the land who is not also a
debtor, and vice versa. But this point
and many another were ignored by the
proponents of inflation. Senator Pat
Harrison of Mississippi, for instance,
on the second day of the debate, con¬
fined his efforts mainly to taunting the
“Mellon-Mills-Reed" group for its al¬
leged failures during the Hoover ad¬
ministration.
The Wheeler-King silver coinage
amendment was accepted by the sen¬
ate. It would enable the President to
fix the ratio between gold and silver
and to provide for unlimited coin¬
age of both metals at the ratio so
fixed.
TEST what Inflation, even if “con
trolled,” will do to the nation and
Its business is a question on which
economists and financiers are as far
apart as the poles. For the present
the prospect of its adoption and the
abandonment of the gold standard
have served to create almost a boom
in certain lines of business, and the
prices of commodities have begun to
rise. But how this will in the long
run benefit the ordinary citizen has not
been shown to the satisfaction of most
of us.
An especially dangerous clause In
the Thomas amendment is the one giv¬
ing the President pow r er to devalue
the gold dollar to the extent of 50 per
cent Senator Borah, an inflationist
argued that this would be declared un¬
constitutional. It may be this power
will never be exercised by the Presi¬
dent, but if it is it will be followed
by steps to abrogate the gold clause
in bonds, mortgages and other con¬
tracts. Provision for such action is
wade in the pending Goldsborough bill
which provides that existing contracts
shall be satisfied by payment of their
face amount in legal tender, that after
its enactment, gold clause contracts
cannot be made legally and that any
profit made from exchanging gold for
legal tender would be subject to a UK)
per cent tax.
Some experts are of the opinion that
the inflation bill may never be used;
that it is “a mere bluff intended to
have the very effect it is now having
arresting and reversing the downward
course of prices.” and giving the Presi¬
dent a better position in the economic
conversations with foreign statesmen,
as did the abandonment of the gold
standard, which aiso was inflationary.
XI 7\AR debts and reduction of arm
’V aments carne to the fore in the
"White House conversations as Prime
Minister MacDonald concluded his part
prepared to depart for
home, and former
Premier Edouard Her¬
riot of France began
his sessions with the
President. These three
gentlemen met togeth¬
er, and after an in-,
formal dinner. Mr.
Roosevelt took up the
disarmament question
with them, his evi¬
bring France into line at the Geneva
conference French demands for
guarantees of security against attack,
which have blocked all agreement
hitherto, were discussed by the Presi¬
dent, and it was said he indicated that
he was “searching sincerely for means
of associating the United States” with
international efforts to check aggres¬
sor nations. Such association might
take the form of consultation with
signatories of the Kellogg peace pact
in the event of its violation. And in
country, the Thomas
inflation amendment
to the farm relief
bill won an easy vic¬
tory in the senate.
With this most por¬
tentous addition the
farm bill was passed
and sent back to the
house for concurrence.
The anti-inflationists,
led by Senator David
A. Reed of Pennsyl¬
made a des¬
j*.-:,: ■ i
M. Herriot
there is the administration
bill authorizing the President to join
other nations in declaring embargoes
od arms and munitions.
As for the war debts, they were first
brought up by Mr. MacDonald, who
let Mr Roosevelt know that Great
Britain would like a downward re¬
vision: and their communique said
that the basis was laid of a clearer
understanding of the situation affect¬
ing the two nations, though no plan
or settlement was under way yet. This
encouraged M. Herriot and bis expert
associates to press the arguments of
France for cancellation.
Then Mr Roosevelt let the corre¬
spondents know that he was planning
to ask congress for authority to re¬
open the war debt settlements and
negotiate a reduction of the II bil¬
lions which European nations owe the
United States. If he were vested with
this power the United States would
enter the London conference prepared
to bargain for stabilization of curren¬
cies on a modified gold basis, re¬
monetization of silver, lowering of
tariffs and other trade harriers and
adoption of measures to raise com¬
modity prices and restore purchasing
power.
Members of the French delegation
said the President bad promised Mac¬
Donald and Herriot that he would ask
congress for authority to postpone the
debt installments due June 15. and
that in return Herriot would ask the
French parliament to pay the default¬
ed December 15 payment of S19.000,
000 .
As Mr. MacDonald said good-by to
the White House, he and Mr. Roosevelt
announced that they had agreed on
the following:
An increase in the general level of
commodity prices.
Re-orientation of commercial policies.
Reduction of tariffs, quotas and ex¬
change restrictions.
World expansion of credit
Capita) expenditures by governments
to stimulate business.
Re-establishment of an international
monetary standard.
Improvement of the status of silver.

States, and said the Ottawa agree¬
ments do not affect these trading pos¬
sibilities. In a prepared statement he
used these emphatic phrases:
“We have reached a point where it
is certain that nothing but united ac¬
tion can avert world disaster."
“Immediate action is imperative.”
“The world is in tragic trouble and
distress."
“If we do not soon defeat the forces
of disruption and discord, they will
defeat us."
“We must act boldly and unselfishly,
otherwise we shall be certain wit¬
nesses of the wreck of our civiliza¬
tion."
Asked whether Canada really had
gone off the gold standard, as had been
asserted by Finance Minister Rhodes,
the prime min’ster replied: “Canada
is as much off the gold standard and
as much on the gold standard as the
United States.”
n REUSING to accept the Norris
In. senate bill as a substitute, the
house passed the McSwain bill for the
operation of the Muscle Shoals devel¬
opment, the vote being 30G to 91. Sev¬
enteen Republicans and five Farraer
I.ahorites voted with the majority.
The house version is regarded as a
less drastic measure than the Norris
bill. The principal point of difference
between the two is that the house hill
provides an appropriation of $10,000.
000 and a bond issue of $50,000,000 for
starting the development program,
while the Norris bill simply authorizes
“all appropriation necessary.” The
Nebraskan's measure is likewise more
rigid with regard to government con¬
struction of power transmission lines.
VX7HEN the world disarmament con
’ V ference resumed its sessions in
Geneva the French plan for an anti¬
war pact of consultation was present¬
ed by Rene Massigli. It excluded
the American continent on the ground
that it was impossible at present to
make the pact universal. Massigli sug¬
gested the creation in the capital of
each signatory power of a commission
which would determine violations of
the Briand-Kellogg pact and the right 3
of a victim to assistance.
Concrete measures to prevent mis¬
use of civil airplanes for military pur¬
poses were presented by the United
States. Canada, Argentina and Japan.

that Viscount Kikujiro
Ishii would arrive

told the newspaper
men that Canada

cuss any proposals
that look toward clos¬
er commercial rela¬
USSOLINT'S four-power peace
±*•1 plan is causing a lot of excited
discussion in various European coun¬
tries. Great Britain and Germany
might gladly agree to this, but France
still asserts the sanctity of treaties
must be respected, and In this she is
of course supported by all the nations
of the little entente, and by Poland.
In Czechoslovakia especially sentiment
was aroused, and Foreign Minister
Edouard Benes told the parliament in
Prague that whoever desires to change
the boundaries o( that country must
bring an army along with him. He
criticized the Mussolini plan as a
“great backward step." and added:
“History shows that surrender of ter¬
ritory always is connected with the
bloodiest wars."
OOVIET Russia was on the verge of
^ a quarrel with Japan over the
equipment of the Chinese Eastern rail¬
way, and in that connection it was
interesting to note that a new align¬
ment was bringing Russia aud France
together, the former drifting away
from Germany and the latter begin¬
ning to take sides against Japan. Al¬
ready the French and Russians have
arranged for exchange of military in¬
formation and military instructors.
Before long the situation on the Euro¬
pean continent may be pan-German¬
ism against pan-Slavism, with France
on the side of the latter and Italy
with the former.
/CONTINUED Chinese resistance near
A-* Kupeikow pass on the road to
Peiping so enraged the Japanese mili¬
tary command that it announced the
early occupation of all strategic points
In the North China area. With this
in view, the Japanese launched a gen¬
eral attack south of the Great Wall
designed to open the way to the old
Chinese capital. As usual. Japan
finds a ready excuse for offensive
movements already planned.
The Manchukuoan government has
announced that only nations recogniz¬
ing that state will benefit by its prom¬
ise of an open door trade policy.
'T'HE Nazi campaign against the
-l Jews in Germany continnes with
vigor. Dr. Joseph Goebbels, minister
of propaganda, speaking at Cologne,
said: “We consider the Jews our
enemies, but hitherto have exercised
a clemency which the Jews do not de¬
serve. If they believe that this clem¬
ency is weakness we will quickly
teach them differently."
Goebbels proclaimed May 1 as the
“festal day of national labor.” to the
disgust of the Communists, who have
long considered that day sacred to
their cause.
Students of Kiel university asked
the rector to compel 28 Jewish pro¬
fessors to resign.
The anti-Jewish movement also was
manifested in Rumania, where a ten
day boycott of all Jewish shops in the
province of Bukovina was ordered by
a Fascist organization.
PORMER " of Wyoming Gov. finally Nellie has Tayloe been placed Ross
in a federal position. The President
appointed her director of the mint.

those Republicans who supported
Roosevelt last year.

JESUS FACES THE CROSS
LESSON TEXT—Mark 10:32-52.
GOLDEN TEXT—And It came to
pass, when the time was come that he
should be received up, he steadfastly
set his face to go to Jerusalem. Luke
1:51. Hard
PRIMARY TOPIC — Doing
Things.
JUNIOR TOPIC—Doing Hard Things.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP¬
IC—The Cost of True Greatness.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP¬
IC—Greatness Through Sacrificial Serv¬
ice.
I. Jesus Foretells His Deal and
Resurrection (w. 32-34).
This is the third time he makes this
prediction. This time it was while on
his way to Jerusalem.
1. Jesus going before the disciples
(▼. 32). Jesus was going with the full
consciousness of the awful tragedy of
the cross before him. the treachery of
Judas, the fiery persecutions of the
priests and scribes, the unjust judg¬
ment, the delivery to Pontius Pilate,
the mocking, the scourging, the crown
of thorns, the cross between male¬
factors, the nails, the spear—all were
spread before him. The notion that
the death of Christ was incidental to
his career is most fallacious. The very
purpose of the incarnation was the
vicarious death (Heb. 2:14).
2. The amazed disciples (v, 32). His
utterances and demeanor filled their
minds with perplexity and their
hearts with awe.
3. The crowd followed In fear (v.
32, R. V.). The strange atmosphere
and happenings struck them with awe
and fear,
4. Jesus Instructed the twelve (w.
33, 34). In this state of confusion
Jesus called them to himself and pa¬
tiently Instructed them as to “what
things should happen unto him.”
a. “Delivered unto the chief priests
and scribes.”
b. “They shall condemn him to
death and deliver him to the Gen*
tilj«.”
<L ‘They shall mock, scourge, spit
upon, and kill him.”
d. “The third day he shall rise
again.”
II. The Ambitious Request of James
and John (vv. 35-45).
1. What it was (vv. 35-37). It was
for a place of pre-eminence in the
Kingdom. According to Matthew, their
mother was the intercessor (Matt.
20:20). Christ had told them of the
awful agony of the cross and also of
the glory which should follow. It was
not entirely for their glory that they
made this request, but because of their
personal desire to be with their Lord.
2. Jesus’ reply (vv. 38-45).
a. To James and John (vv. 38-40).
(1) Their misconception rebuked.
"Ye know not what ye ask.”
(2) Positions of glory in Christ's
Kingdom are earned, not obtained
through favor or arbitrary assignment.
The way to honor is through suffer¬
ing. The cup which they were to drink
was all that they were to suffer be¬
cause of his crucifixion.
b. To the ten disciples (vv. 41-45).
(1) Their displeasure (v. 41). They
were displeased with the request of
James and John, because they were
not free from selfish ambition.
(2) True greatness declared (vr.
42-45). To minister to others is great¬
er than to be ministered unto (v. 43).
Among the Gentile nations greatness
was conceded to those who exercised
authority over others. The highest
standard of Christ's Kingdom is to for¬
get self in devoted service to others,
even to the giving of one’s life.
III. Jesus Cures Blind Bartimaeus
(vv. 46-52).
Though already bearing the weight
of his cross, be had time for gracious
deeds. Blind Bartimaeus received his
sight.
1. Eartimaeus’ request (vv. 4o, 47).
As soon as he heard that Jesus was
passing by he cried to him for help.
The fact that he addressed him as the
Son of David showed that he recog¬
nized his Messiahship.
2. Rebuked by the multitude (v. 48).
i This rebuke provoked even a more
earnest cry from Bartimaeus.
3. The blessing granted (vv. 49-52).
Though Jesus knew his desire, he
| wished him definitely to commit him¬
self. Note the progress in the experi¬
ence of Bartimaeus.
a. A blind beggar (v. 46). b. His
cry for mercy (v. 47). c. The per¬
sistence in his cry (v. 48). d. His re¬
sponse to the call of Jesus (vv. 49,
i 50). e. His specific request (v. 51).
I f. He immediately received his sight
(v. 52).
How quickly an earnest soul may
pass from sore need to jubilant dis
cipleship.
Hypocruy
I saw about a peck of counterfeit
dollars once. Did I go to the window
and throw away all my good dollars?
No. Yet you reject Christianity be¬
cause there are hypocrites, or counter¬
feit Christians.—W. E. Biederwolf.

1 Let every preacher show the peo¬
ple a Crucified Savior and may It nev¬
er be said by any who sit under your
ministry, “Where are the prints of the
nails?"
BANKERS IN HISTORY
We get the name “bank” from the
German “bank" (French, banque;
Italian, banca), a bench, a table for
changing money. I suppose the
“money changers” you read about in
the Bible ran that kind of a bank.
The encyclopedia says, “The mod¬
ern banker Is a dealer in credit,
while in ancient times the so-called
banker was a mere custodian of the
funds of others and a buyer and
seller of foreign moneys."—St. Louis
Globe-Democrat.
POISON
in Your bowels!
Poisons absorbed into the system
from souring waste in the bowels,
cause that dull, headachy, sluggish,
bilious condition; coat the tongue;
foul the breath; sap energy, strength
and nerve-force. A little of Dr.
Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin -will clear
up trouble like that, gently, harm¬
lessly, in a hurry. The difference it
will make in your feelings over night
will prove its merit to you.
Dr. Caldwell studied constipation
for over forty-seven years. This long
experience enabled him to make his
prescription just what men, women,
old people and children need to make
their bowels help themselves. Its
natural, mild, thorough action and
its pleasant taste commend it to
everyone. That’s why “Dr. Caldwell’s
Syrup Pepsin,” as it is called, is the
most popular laxative drugstores sell.
