UTAH Review of the Year 1930 $ at Home and in Other Lands Unemployment and Economic Depression Generally Prevalent Prev-alent Steps Toward World Peace Democrats Win in United States Elections South American Revolutions. " By EDWARD PROSPERITY, which was "Just around the corner" tt the beginning begin-ning of 1030, gave the world no more than an occasional glimpse of her lace during the year. Business depression, depres-sion, Increasing unemployment, continuing con-tinuing low prices for agricultural products and declining markets for securities prevailed generally. Skilled observers professed to see war clouds again gathering over the Balkans, but notable steps were taken In the direction of world peace and disarmament. The United States, Great Britain and Japan signed tli London naval limitation treaty, and toward the close of the year there were Indications that France and Italy, settling their parity dispute, would make It a five-power pact. Borne progress was achieved by the preparatory disarmament commission f tbe League of Nations. The revision revi-sion of German reparations, known as tbe Young plan, was adopted by all nations concerned and put Into effect, although Germany waa not hopeful of Its ultimate success. The evacuation f the Khlneland by the allied forces was completed. China's long, bloody and confused civil war ended In victory for the Nationalist Na-tionalist government Popular and military mil-itary revolutions upset the governments govern-ments of Ave Latin-American republics. repub-lics. Though governmental and other agencies in the United States strove throughout the year to relieve the unfortunate un-fortunate economic conditions, results of these efforts were slow In appearing. appear-ing. Consequently the voters went to the polls In November and expressed their dissatisfaction in the customary manner. There was a Democratic landslide .that covered most of the country and the Republican party virtually vir-tually lost its control of both houses of the congress that convenes in March, 1931. However, the national leaders of the victorious Democrats pledged their party to co-operation with tbe Republican administration In all measures designed to bring prosperity pros-perity around that corner, and business busi-ness was reassured by the promise that there would be no attempt for some time to revise the tariff act passed in Jpne. Industrial and financial distress In the United States was greatly Increased In-creased by drought that prevailed all ummer In the Mississippi and Ohio river states and extended as far east as the Virginias. National and state governments afforded speedy relief to the sufferers. As winter neared numerous numer-ous organizations throughout the country coun-try went Into action to alleviate the unemployment situation, their aim being be-ing to supply those out of work with Jobs rather than charity doles. Public building and hlghwny projects were started and speeded up, and great Industrial In-dustrial and transportation concerns sought means to increase the number of their employees. All In all, 1030 was not a happy year for the world. INTERNATIONAL THREE months of Intensive debute, diplomatic negotiation, study of ex-perte ex-perte figures and mutual concessions brought forth the London naval treaty, which was signed on April 22 by the delegates of the United States, Great Britain, Japan. France and Italy. Hy this pact the first three powers agreed to the extension of the Washington treaty so that the reduction and limitation limi-tation of their navies Bhould apply to cruisers and lesser vessels. France and Italy failed utterly to reach an accord as to what their relative naval strength should be. Consequently they subscribed to only those parts of the London treaty that provided for a battleship building 'holiday'' and prescribed various rules designed to humanize submarine warfare. France and Italy held Intermittent conversations during the rest of the year, but could not settle their differences. differ-ences. The one Insurmountable obstacle obsta-cle was Italy's demand that her right to naval parity with France be admitted, ad-mitted, and France's fiat refusal to yield this point. League Rtctivat Brland's Scheme. In September the assembly of the League of Nations listened politely while M. Briand, French foreign minister, min-ister, expounded his pet scheme for a federation of European states. Other statesmen cautiously praised the plan and it was accepted In principle by the assembly and referred to a special committee which will report to the 1031 meeting. Twenty-eight of the nations represented repre-sented at Geneva signed on Octoter 2 a treaty guaranteeing financial aid to any signatory state that is the victim of warlike aggression. Late to August nine of the smaller notions of central Ejrope held a conference con-ference In Warsaw and agreed on a concerted program of action mainly In furtherance of their agrarian Interests. Inter-ests. The pact was signed by Bulgaria, Chechoslovakia. Estonia. Finland. Hud gary, Latvia, Poland. Rumania and Jugoslavia. Lithuania was absent because be-cause of her political differences with Poland, franc was quick to strengta- W. PICKARD en her friendship with these states by offering credits. During the year there were many Indications that Italy was drawing Into In-to close co-operation with Germany and Russia. After being ratified by all the nations na-tions concerned, the Young plan for reparations was put Into effect on May 9. Cates W. McGarrah of New York already had been elected president presi-dent of the bank for international settlements set-tlements created by the plan. On May 10 the lost of the French troops In the Rhlneland began moving out. the evacuation evac-uation being completed June 30. A separate reparations settlement was signed In April, by Hungary, Austria and the states In the little entente, Frank B. Kellogg, former secretary of state of the United States, was elected a member of the World Court in September to fill out the term of Charles Evans Hughes. The mandate commission of the League of Nations made In August Its long awaited report on the Palestine conflicts between Jews and Arabs, placing the blame on Great Britain, In the fall the British government announced an-nounced a new policy concerning Palestine Pales-tine which would stop for the present any further Immigration of Jews Into the Holy Land. Zionists everywhere protested vigorously and President Chains Wolzmann and other ehlef officers offi-cers of the World Zionists organization organiza-tion resigned. Russia's Great Conspiracy Story. Early In November the government of Russia Lnnounced that It had uncovered un-covered a gigantic plot against the Soviet regime. In which a number of "capitalistic states were suld to be Involved. Among many individuals who were alleged to have a part In the conspiracy were Former Premier Poincare and Foreign Minister Briand of France and Sir Henri Deterding. British oil magnate. Eight Russian engineers were put on trial, confessed and were sentenced to terms in prison. Paris and London looked on the whole thing as a "frame-up." Late In January Mexico severed diplomatic dip-lomatic relations with Russia because of alleged Communist Insults. In the Uulted States the advocates of a policy of, resumption of relations with the Soviet government Were Jolted by revelations that the latter had been selling wheat short on the American grain exchanges, aiding In the demoralization demoral-ization of prices. At the same time 1: became evident that the Moscow government gov-ernment was dumping grain In the European markets at prices far below the cost of produ tlon. The whole affair created a great stir here and abroad but nothing much could be done about It FOREIGN GREAT BRITAIN'S Labor govern-ment govern-ment struggled manfully throughout through-out the year to solve the nation's economic eco-nomic problems, but found that this could not be done In a short time. Unemployment Un-employment continued to Increase, passing the two million mark in June, and industrial depression was little lightened if at all. However, no one seemed to have a better solution to offer than Prime Minister MucDonnld and his ministers, so they held on to their power. They had the aid of a national advisory council. Chancellor Snowden devised a satisfactory budget that was by no means socialistic, and parliament passed some of the legislation legisla-tion asked by the government Two matters of vast Import demanded de-manded 'tuch attention from the British Brit-ish empire's rulers,. One was the effort ef-fort to develop the empire as an economic unit and the Imperial confer ence which was held In tandon undertook under-took this task. The various dominion were represented by some of their best minds and the discussions continued con-tinued until well Into Novemher. Bui the results were extremely disappoint ing. The main Issue was economic cooperation, co-operation, and In ttits nothing was accomplished ac-complished because the dominions and the British government could not agree concerning free trade, protection and preferential rates within the empire. Problem ef India. The InrrPusing Independence of the dominions was marited by the tacit understanding that henceforth they shall have the right to accredit their own diplomats to torelgn countries, and may communicate with one another an-other and with Great Britain, not through governors general, but directly. It was decided to create a tribunal for the settlement of tntruJmperlal disputes. The future status of India within the empire was a question that troubled u.e British throughout the year, and It was complicated by the non-resistance rebellion conducted by Mahatma Gandhi and his numerous followers. As Is their custom, the Communists took advantage of the situation sit-uation to convert the peaceful revolt f the Indian Nationalists Into riotous demonstrations, and the police and military forces bad to handle not only these but also attacks on the northwestern north-western frontier by tribesmen. Gandhi and many of bis lieutenants were put In prison but their civil disobedience campaign never slackened. One of Its frequent manifestations was the making mak-ing of suit contrary to the laws. The All-India congress, consisting largely of Gandhi's adherents, decided to boycott boy-cott the roundtalile conference arranged ar-ranged for late In the year, because their demand was for the absolute independence in-dependence of India. The roundtalile conference opened In London November 12 with much pomp and ceremony, the native prlim-s, the Hindus, the Moslems and even the "untouchables" being represented by their ablest hien and by two' brilliant women. The Indians made It clear they would accept nothing less than dominion status, and some of tiiein bitterly attacked the British methods of rule In India. ' The problem helore the conference- and the government was so complex thai there was no chance for Its solution for many months. One definite decision reached was that Burma should be made a separate dominion. In the Canadian national election on July 28 the Conservatives completely upset the Liberal government headed by Prime Minister W. U Miickeu.le King and secured a comfortable majority ma-jority In .he dominion parliament, and Richard B. Bennett their lender, be came prime minister. The new government govern-ment took steps at once to relieve the unemployment situation and to help the farmers, one-being the utmost com plete discontinuance of Immigration from Europe. . German Fascists Win. As In most other countries, political events In Germany reflected the prevailing discontent of the people, and there It was aggravated by the feeling that they were oppressed by the reparations. Chancellor . Mueller and his cublnet resigned In March because of dissatisfaction with the ratification of the Young plan and with the budget and financial reforms proposed. Dr. Heinrich Bruenlng, Centrist Cen-trist leader, became chancellor and formed a ministry of members of the five middle parties. The National So cialists and the Communists kept up continual agitation and President Hin denburg dissolved the reicbstag on July 18. In the elections which were held September 14 the National Socialists, So-cialists, commonly called the Fascists, won a most surprising and tremendous victory. They Increased the number of their seats In the relchstag from 12 to. 107, and their popular vote from 800,000 to more than 6,000,000. Theic titular leader Is Adolf Hitler who. being be-ing an Austrian, could not be elected to the reiehstag. France, Spain and Italy. One small provision In the finance bill brought a vote of luck of confidence in the French chamber of deputies In February and the Tardieu ministry was forced to resign. It was succeeded by a Radical-Socialist cab inet, formed by Cliuutemps which was defeated on its first appearance, Tardieu Tar-dieu then wus recalled, and held on through a stormy summer and fall, but early In December the senate. forced him and his cabinet to resign, and Theodore Steeg undertook to form a new ministry. min-istry. France maintained her position as one of the most prosperous countries coun-tries of Europe, and gathered an immense im-mense store of gold. She was largely preoccupied with national defense and went ahead with her plan for a powerful pow-erful chain of fortifications on her eastern frontier. Gen. Prlmo de Rivera, who had been dictator of Spain for more than six years, resigned on January 28. partly part-ly under compulsion, when faced with the threat of a military revolt. He was succeeded hy Gen. D'amnso Ber-enguer. Ber-enguer. Throughout the year there were repeated strikes, food riots and violent demonstrations hy students and In the middle of December a serious rebellion broke out In the northern part of the country. Economy was the continual cry of the Italian government. Premier Mussolini Mus-solini being Its spokesman, and his measures toward that end were put through with thoroughness and dis patch. They extended to the reduction reduc-tion of salaries of all governmental employees, who are remarkably numerous num-erous there, and all employers were urged to follow suit In compensation, the cost of living was brought down by the lowering of prices of food and other necessities. At the same time the Duce continued his program of extensive public works, like drainage and restoration of waste lands, giving giv-ing employment to many men. Carol on Rumanian Throne. Carol, former crown prince of Rumania, Ru-mania, with the aid of prominent Rumanians, Ru-manians, executed a startling coup d'etat In June, From his exile in France he flew to bis native country coun-try In an airplane and two days inter the parliament declared him king and his little son. who had held the title, heir to the throne. Carol soon began planning for bis coronation, but his estranged wife declined to be reconciled recon-ciled and the statesmen said the ceremony cere-mony could not be held unless she were present .r the marriage were dissolved. As a result of this dispute Premier Maniu resigned in October and Carol went ahead with his plans An Interesting if not lniMrtant event was the marriage on October 25 f King Boris of Bulgaria and Primes Giovanna, daughter of the king and queen of Italy. Latin-Amtrican Revolutions. Revolt flamed In four South American Amer-ican republics. Four men who bad beet virtual dictators were ousted. Four new governments ere established. As a preliminary to these events there was a revolution In the Dominican republic la February, the Immediate cause being the announced Intention of President Uoraclo Vasquez to stand for reflection. After a few skirmishes YaMues waa forced out of office, be ing succeeded tempororily by General Gen-eral Urena. Elections were held on I , 10 and Gen. Rafael TruJUlo was chosen president and Inaugurated three months later. Bolivia wus uext on the list. There r Hernando Slles tried, like Vasuuez, t, 'perpetuate his rule and was driven from otllce In May by the Insurgents. He was permitted to take refuge in Chile, and bis much hated right hand ,un. Gen. Hans Kundl of Prussia, fled back to bis German home. A military mili-tary Junta took over the government. Its chief being Gen. Carlos Blanco Galllndo. Peru followed suit In August. The olihers of the. army led a movement against President Augusto B. Legula wiio hud held the olilce for more than ten years and considered himself al most Irremovable. He was forced to resign, turning over bis powers to a military junta, and later Lieut Col. I.uls M. Sanchez Cerro was made provisional pro-visional president. Legula bad been recognized as an efficient business president and Peru made great material ma-terial strides during bis regime, but the revolutionists accused him of "denial "de-nial of civil liberties" and also of nepotism and the sale of concessions, lie was Imprisoned to awalf trial. Late In August President Hipollto Irigoyen of Atgentina was warned by his minister of JmUlce that a revolution revolu-tion might break out Immediately. A few days later the prediction was ful filled, the high army and navy officers leading their commands In a revolt I hat speedily ousted the aged chief executive, who was seriously 111. Only In Buenos Aires waa there any popular opposition to the revolution, and this was soon quelled with some bloodshed. blood-shed. Gen. Jose Francisco Uriburu, chief of the- insurgents, became the provisional president on September 6. Irigoyen for years had enjoyed great personal popularity In Argentina, was president from 1916 to 1922 and was elected again In 192a But he had be come senile and sick and lost bis hold on the people. Vargas Rules Brazil. Brazil's revolution broke out early in October and was In a way a war between the states, the leader of each striving to seize the central govern ment. The term of President Washing ton Luis was soon to expire but tiis favored candidate. Dr. Julio Prestes, president of the state of Sao Paulo, had been elected, allegedly by fraud. The defeated liberal candidate, Dr. Getulio Vargas, former president of the state of Rio Grande do Sul, start ed a revolt to prevent the Inauguration Inaugura-tion of Prestes, and ' the movement spread to state after state, all the insurgent armies converging on Rio de Juneiro, the national capital. The government resisted stubbornly, but considerable parts of the army and navy deserted it and after a few weeks of bloody fighting Luis was ousted The members of the Junta that took over the government at once began quarreling and scheming, but Vargas promptly came up from the south with a large force of gaucho soldiers and his authority wus recognized. He was installed as provisional president on Novemher 3. Pascuul Ortiz Rubio was Inaugurated Inaugurat-ed as president of Mexico on February 5 and selected a strong cabinet under whose rule the country promises to prosper. Especial attention is being paid to reorganization of agriculture and to education. DOMESTIC WITH less cause for complaint V tnan tbe peoples of most other countries, the inhabitants of the United Unit-ed States were nevertheless dissatisfied dissatis-fied and pessimistic. Overproduction by farmers and manufacturers and timidity of consumers resulted in business- depression and unemployment that lasted throughout the year, despite de-spite all efforts to restore prosperity. The great drought played its evil part affecting conditions in the entire coun try. President Hoover's administration had another exceedingly difficult year. In the senate the Democrats were reinforced re-inforced by the radical Republicans and the coalition fought many of the Chief Executive's policies. After more than six months of debate the senate passed the Snioot tariff bill, embracing embrac-ing two features that were obnoxious to the President. These were the export ex-port debenture provision, carried over from the old farm relief legislation, and a clause transferring the flexible tariff power from the President to congress. The .iouse of representatives representa-tives eliminated these features, the senate was forced to yield, and on June 14 the uwalled llawley-Smoot tariff measure was finally enacted. It reached the highest protective level of any tariff law ever passed, with an average rate aln.ut 20 per cent above that of the Fordney -MH 'umber bill of U22. In Its entirety it was mls-fying mls-fying to nolHMly. bul President Hoover signed It lt-Muse he saw in its flexible provision Hie means of righting its Injustices. Protests agnin, the higher duties were received from many fr elgn governments. Veterans' Pension Act There waa another long and bitter wi angle over the veterans' pension bill As first passed by congress It was wholly ol.jectioiml.le to the admiuis-tration admiuis-tration and was promptly vetoed, pirt- V bra!1 ' ?raB,eJ '"I'ensation for disabilities not Incurred in active service and partly because , ,ra -beyond the financial necessities of th situation."

Uines as ClSome of the recommendations of the Wickershum law enforcement coram slon were adopted by congress, the most Important being the transfer of the prohibition bureau from the treasury treas-ury to the Department of Justice. Tle change was made on July L Col. Amos W W Woodcock took command or the new bureau and former Commissioner Commis-sioner James M. Doran was .node head of a new industrial alcohol bureau bu-reau under the Treasury department. When William Howard Taft resigned re-signed as chief Justice of the Supreme court on February 3. only five days before his death, President Hoover Immediately named Charles Evans Hughes to succeed him. The appointment appoint-ment wns confirnieu by the senate with 26 votes In opposition. Then Associate Associ-ate Justice Edward Terry Sanford passed away and Mr. Hoover picked Federal Judge John J. Purker of North Carolina to fill the vacancy. Ihor and negro organizations rose In opposition and the senate rejected the nomination nomina-tion by a vote of 41 to 39. The President Presi-dent then named Owen J. Roberts for the place and he was accepted. Prohibition and the Election. Prohibition as a political Issue Increased In-creased in Importance as the months passed. A poll conducted by the Literary Lit-erary Digest indicated that the country coun-try was largely In favor of repeal of the Eighteenth amendment or at least of modification of the enforcement law. The liquor question was a great factor In the pre-election campaign In many states and had a decided effect on the results when the people went to the polls on November 4. The voters of Illinois, Rhode Island and Massa chusetts in a referendum were against prohibition by large majorities. The election turned out to be very much of a landslide for the Deimv cratic party. The Republican major! ties In both senate and house were almost wiped out for the next congress, con-gress, and many states and cities elected Democratic officials to replace Republicans. Naturally the more rabid opponents of the administration saw In all this a severe rebuke for Presi dent Hoover and his policies; bul sane opinion was that it was the natural nat-ural result of unfortunate economic conditions. With large appropriations available the farm board worked for the relief of agriculture by promoting and fi nancing various co-operatives; and later in the year undertook, with some, success, to stabilize the price of wheat which had fnllen rapidly , in all world markets. In this latter operiltion the hoard was forced to accumulate some tiling like 100,000.(100 bushels of wheat, the future disposal ot which flas an unsolved problem. Chairman Legge ol the board campaigned unceasingly for reduction of wheat acreage. Among the diplomatic appointments by the President were: Ralph II Booth, minister to Denmark; Fred M. Hearing, ambassador to Peru; John N Willys, ambassador to Poland; Hun ford W. MacNider, minister to Canada ; W. Cameron Forbes, ambassador to Japan ; W. M. Jardine, minister to Egypt; Herman Bernstein, minister to Albania ; Nicholas Roosevelt minister to Hungary, and J. Reuben Clark, Jr., ambassador to Mexico. Taking of the fifteenth decennial census began on April 2. The final figures, announced In November, gave the population of the United States as 122,775,04. The increase for the decade was about 10.1 per cent. On November 28, President Hoover appointed William N. Doak of Virginia Vir-ginia secretary of labor to succeed James J. Davis, who bad been elected senator from Pennsylvania. The short session of congress opened December 2, and the President's message mes-sage wns largely concerned with measures meas-ures of relief. Following to a great extent bis recommendations, congress appropriated more than one hundred millions for an emergency construction construc-tion program designed to aid the unemployment un-employment situation, and also set aside a large fund for loans to farmers who had suffered from the drought Mr. Hoover transmitted to the senate the revised protocols of the World court and asked early action on them.
