Indeed, there Is every reason to believe that the Kellogg y pact Is about to become, If It has Z t t not already become, just another , ' y ' f scrap of paper. In frequent conversations, one hears the question asked: Why Is the United States taking such interest In the controversy between Italy and Ethiopia? Those nations j.4 are thousands of miles away.

T V a SWEET AS HONEY ITS THE MONEY League of Nations of Beauty Meets in Paris President Roosevelt has taken some notice of the plaint of members of house and Mast List senate who have been feelirg the Revises effects of WashHe has parIntense heat ingtons tially redefined the list of must legislation that he wants passed before congress adjourns. Heading this list, of course, Is tne tax legislation and It' Is more than intimated that he will not agree to an adjournment until a new tax law has been passed and signed. Mr. Roosevelt also Is Inclined to Insist that congress enact the bill which will deny corporations or citizens the right to sue the federal government on account of losses sustained through the allegedly governments gold policy. This legislation, from the administrations standpoint. Is Imperative because unless courts are denied Jurisdiction In such suits It is an undoubted fact that there will be many of them filed before congress reconvenes next January. Thus, If tlie administration desires to avoid sori-ou- s court bnttles In the face of thw Supreme courts decision In the famous gold cases, it must prevent the filing of those suits. Once they are filed, an act of congress cannot prevent the rendering of a final decision and the adjudication of damages If any are found. Another measure which the President wants enacted is the banking act of 1035. It has undergone considerable revision at tlie hands of the senate sub committee, presided over by Senator Glass of Virginia, but tlie latest word from the Wli.te House Is that the administration will not Insist upon tlie radical provisions originally written Into the bill bv Governor Fccles, of the Federal Reserve hoard. Tlie Eccles plan. It will he recalled, was regal fied by many ns certain to result In plating control of the hanking structure In a politically minded Federal Reserve hoard. The Glass revision Is considered to have eliminated tint dangi r. The President 1ms encountered a serious obstacle In ttie banking bill, hm ever, that Is related to political questions. As tlie bill now stands, tHinks would be peimitted to underwrite issues of corporate .securities, that is, to act as agent for tlie Sale of those securities Mr. Roosevelt is seeking to find some way by which the underwriting bank can be iicvented from Invesiing Its own funds In those securities, a danger lie regards as grave.
