QP4 EUIlJRE**
a/ agee' iuulace-—
E. D. W—Will the dream that my
mother dreamed about me ever come
true ?
Ans.—It seems to me that your
mother-dreamed that you would some
day become the wife of an under
taker, but I th'nk that you will find
tliat the dream has no relation to
your future life. I don’t see you re
lated to an undertaker in any manner
whatsoever.
N. A. R.—What do you see for me
this year?
Ans.—rl think you will find yourself
working regularly, beginning in a
very short tims. But you have al
lowed yourself to fall Into some very
careless habits recently, drink'ng too
much and sleeping too little. You
will have to snap out of it if you wish
to get back on your feet quickly and
hold your job after you get it.
L. I. NJ W—Will you please tell
me what became of my money.
Ans.—I believe that the money was
taken from your small pocket book
several days before Christmas, and
it has been spent long before now.
You can't get the money back, so you
night just as well stop worry'ng
about it.
A. E, F.—Is my husband planning
to hurt me?
Ans.—Your husband has suspected
that you were cheating on him for a
long time, so I would advise you to
watch your step. He hasn’t made
any definite plans to hurt you, but
il he ever catches you with one of
your boy friends he is liable to make
it very uncomfortable for both of you.
D. L. G.—Do you th'nk this man is
making me a fair offer?
Ans-—The man is undoubtedly try
ing to beat you out of some money.1
He doesn’t own a farm, and if he did
he wouldn’t be trying to sell it so
cheaply. Just tell him that you have
to see the farm and also his title pa
pers before you would be interested in
putting any money up.
C. W. F.—Will you tell me why my
news hasn’t been panted?
Ana.—The paper has a definite
make-up plan to follow, and unless
you can get your contribution in a
little earlier each week it will be left
out. The space allowed in your pa
per for local news is scant, and your
| copy must be well wrtten as well as
prompt if you expect it to be printed.
C. E. M.—Do you thnk I will be
successful in this work?
Ans.—S.nce you are so very inter
ested in the study and practice of
Home Economics, I would advise you
to continue in that line of study. The
money to be made in that field is not
attractive, but you will be happier in
the work that you l‘ke than you would
be if you attempted something that
you were not interested in.
L. J. S.—Please tell me wrhat my
husband’s trouble?
Ans.—I believe that the pains in
your husband’s side aue caused by
chronic appendicts or a very similar
condition. I suggest that you have
the doctor examine your husband
thoroughly and recorpmend the steps
to be followred *n the treatment of his
case.
__
C. H. J.—Can you tell me who took
my ring?
Ans.—The ring was too large for
your finger, and it seems to me that
you lost the ring in your garden. The
ring wasn’t stolen, and a careful
search of your garden might possi
bly reveal it, but I think it will be
' pretty hard to find.
_
P. L. F.-—Does this man go w'th the
one I am thinking of?
Ans.—I believe that N. A. C. and
E. 0. P. are very good friends, but
you shouldn’t allow yourself to be
jealous, you can’t get him back or
ever expect to marry him if you let
him know that you are trying to
check up on him and run his business.
L. E.—Have I any living relat'ves ?
Ans: It seems to me that you have
two nephews living, whose ‘initials
I believe to be J. R. and H. L. They
both appear to be living ip a large
city in MISSISSIPPI—You will hear
from them sometime th's year.

FACTS and FIGURES
—on War and Fascism—
FASCIST LEGISLATION IN
THE UNITED STATES
The Tydings-MacCormack ‘Dis
affection’ Bill which provides
two years imprisonment or a fine
of $1,000 or both for saying or
publishing anything which “ad
any sailor or soldier to disobedi
an vsailor or soldier to disobedi
ence ,has been condemned by
Representative Maverick of
Texas and Kvale of Minnesota as
an “assault on the freedom of the
press and of speech” and “an in
tended suppression of organized
labor.”
The Kramer ‘Sedition Bill’
which sets a fine of $5,000 or five
years imprisonment or both for
“advocating the overthrow of the
government” is broad enough, ac
cording to the American Civil
Liberties Union, “to threaten
«
every type of militant labor pro
test against underpay, insecurity,
and unemployment.” In urging
protests against both bills, the
Civil Liberties Union warns that
if passed, “the bills would go far
towards making America safe for
fascism.”
Representative Vito Marcan
tonio of New York issued a state
ment attacking the bills as “a
clear sign that the strike-breakers
and the exploiters of labor have
commenced their first advance
toward the settin gup of an anti
labor dictatorship in America
This type of repressive legisla
tion lays the ground work for £
wholesale effort to break up
unions, destroy workers’ defense
organizations ,and snuff out pro
test on the part of the unem
ployed.” Among the organiza
tions actively opposed to the pas
sage of these bills are: The
American League Against TVai
and Fascism. The American Civi
Liberties Union, The League foi
Industrial Democracy, The Na
tional Committee for the Defense
of Political Prisoners, and the
National Association for the Ad
vancement of Colored People.
Wide spread opposition to
alien and sedition legislation
from labor ,liberal and radical
sources has succeeded in defeat
ing such legislation in a number
of states. The Governors of
Alabama and Georgia have re
cently vetoed such laws; they
nave ben defeated in the legisla
tures of Arkansas, Florida, and
Texas.
AMERICAN INVESTMENTS
IN ITALY
Just as loans to the Allies gave
American capitalists an economic
interest in who won the World
War, American investments and
loans to Italy—give them an ac
tive financial interest in the war
which Italy plans against Ethio
pia. The Labor Research As
sociation gives the total of pri
vate longterm- investments of
American capital in Italy as
$401,100,000. This would be
jeopardized if Italy were defeat
ed in war or if the fascist dicta
torship were overthrown

A. F. OF L. ASSAILS ITALIAN
WAR PLANS
—
The Executive Council of t h e
American Federation of Labor at
its quarterly meeting resolved to
appeal to the Unied States Gov
ernment “to utilize all influence
at its command to prevent the
threatened war between Italy and
Ethiopia." The Council urged
workers everywhere to protest
against Italian war preparations
land isued a statement which said:
‘From all the facts and informa
tion available, there seems no
justification for a war of aggres
sion on the part of Italy and for
the invasion of Ethiopian terri
tory.'
TRADE IN WAR MATERIALS
INCREASES
_____________
The Associated Press reports
that “world-wide gains in the
international movement of arms,
munitions, and the raw materials
i #
of war were disclosed in a sur
vey of the statistics of the
United States and other nations.”
The United States has reached a
record high in its shipment of cot
ton linters, used in the making of
explosives, to France, Germany,
the United Kinkdom, Japan and
Italy. It has also reached a new
high in the shipment of scrap iron
and steel to Japan and Italy.
France imported in 1934, 25,494
metric tons of the benzols, useful
in explosives, as compared with
9,284 metric tons in 1933. Italy
and other nations also increased
their import of the benzols.
The United States exported
151,117,000 cartridges in 1934 as
compared with 110,260,000 in
1933, increased its rifle exports
from 18,145 to 36,852, and more
than doubled its shipment of ex
plosives- “Italian Africa, sel
dom listed among notable mark
ets for American trucks was the
leading purchaser of trucks in
June. Japan also was a leader.”

WAGES IN GERMANY
Johannes Steel, foreign editor
of the New York Post, gives fig
on wages in Germany during the
first half of 1935. Tlie Nazi’s
claim that the wage level has
been kept intact is true, “if one
takes the wage per hour instead
of the amount that the workers
receive at the end of the working
week.” The weekly wage of the
better-paid worker, ia small min
ority, is 23.31 marks of which
3.06 is deducted for social insur
ance and about 3 more for “vol
untary air defense,” for the
factory representative of th, e
Nazi party, and other ‘contribu
tions.’ The worker is left with
17.25 marks, about $6. In the
first half of 1935, 26.4 per cent
or 3,300,000 workers who contri
buted for social insurance earned
less than 12 marks weekly. “Only
workers employed in the arma
ment industry received adequate
wages, amounting on the average
to 36 marke per week ”

GOVERNMENT AIDS SHIP
BUILDING CORPORATION
AGAINST CAMDEN
STRIKERS
Another step in the direction of
ascismis seen by leaders of the
Industrial Union of Marine and
Shipbuilding Workers, in the ac
tion of tJie government in adopt
ng the proposals of the New
York Shipbuilding Corporation
for the settlement of the strike of
its Camden, N. J. employees and
forcing compulsory arbitration
upon them. The strike has con
tinued for months while the
company refused to settle. The
union agreed on July 19 to pro
posals of Secretary of Labor
Perkins, which were quite differ
ent from the present proposals,
but the company refused to agree
to those terms, and held up work
on $50,000,000 worth of naval j
contracts. The Navy Depart
ment refused to cancel these j
contracts, until the House Labor
Committee decided to investigate.!
Then Miss Perkins accepted the
company’s proposals as the gov
ernment ’s.
Members of t h e House Labor
Committee, as well as labor lead
ers, protested against Miss Perk
ins’ action as a complete surrend
er to the company. Representa
tive Vito Marcantonio (Rep.
N. Y ) and Representative George
J. Schneider (Progressive, Wis.) j
characterized the proposals as .
! one-sided and unfair to the union.;
The United Mine Workers, the
International Ladies Garment
!
Workers Union, the Amalga
mated Clothing Workers and
other A. F. of L. unions have
extended financial and moral
support to the Camden strikers.
WHAT IS NEUTRALITY?
The decision of the Belgian
Government to stop the ship
ment of munitions toEthiopia has
aroused vigorous protests from
Socialists, trade unionists, liberal
Catholics, and others who declare
I that an arms embargo against
Ethiopia is not neutrality but
actually aids Italy, since Ethi

UNPUBLISHED WILSON-LAN
SING CORESPONDENCE
REVEALS ECONOMIC
REASONS FOR WAR
»
In support of legislation “to
keep the United States neutral”
in the next war, Senators Nye
and Clark cited hitherto unpub
lished correspondence between
President Wilson and Secretary
of State Lansing in 1915. The
correspondence proved that the
United States entered the war
for financial reasons- The Allies
had made great purchases of war
materials. The loaning of money
to belligerents had been con
sidered inconsistent with the pol
icy of neutrality, but neutrality
was not permitted to stand in the
way of economic interests tlu
Senators pointed out. Wi son
finally acquiesced in “the neces
sity of floating government loans
for the bel'igerent nations, which
are purchasing such great quanti
ties of goods in this country, in
order to avoid a serious financ’al
situation which will not only af
fect them but this country as
well.”

four suicides and several at
tempts at suicide among the en

Rounseve'l charged that the sui
cides were the result of “slave
driving” on the part of General
Fisko and Colonel Geidt. His
trial will take place on August
23rd.
NAZI TERROR AGAINST ITAL
IAN FASCIST
Me* A (loo, Lansing and Wilson
agreed with the big bankers in
f aring that if loans were not.
made to the Allies, not on'y
would Americans lose business
but there would be a depression.
The first Morgan loan of $500,
000,000 followed in one month.
As Andre Tardieu commented
after these loans had been floated
‘‘From that time on the victory I
of he Allites had become essential
to the United States.” Wherupon |
the President who had “kept us
out of war,” found good MORAL
reasons for getting us into it.

AMERICAS WAR BUDGET:
RELIEF MDNEY USED FOR
WAR PREPARATIONS
War preparations are consum
ing the lion’s share of the huge
unparra’loled expenditures of
the government—which are mort
gaging the future and adding j
enormously to the tax burden.
The outright appropriation this j
year for the Army and Navy De
partments, total nearly a billion
dollars. In addition to this rec
ord war budget ,almost $757,000,- j
000 has been spent for direct and
indirect war preparations out of
PWA appropriations from June,
1933 to April, 1935, reports the |
Federated Press. At the same
time, a U. S. Labor Department
survey explodes the story of
“loafers on relief rolls.” The
jobless, according to this report,
will accept practically any work.
FACTS ON PROFITS, WAGES,
CONCENTRATION OF
WEALTH, AND UNEM
PLOYMENT
“Even informed observers
were startled at the tendency to
concentration (of wealth) and
the rate of concentration indi
cated b ythe 1935 income tax re
turns,” declared Robert Jack
son ,counsel for the Bureau of In
ternal Revenue, on August 6th.
He stated that for years the taxa
tion of great wealth has become
lighter and the burden borne by
the 'working' population with
small incomes heavier. In 1930,
the well-to-do contributed 68.2%
of the receipts of the National
Treasury; in 1933 they contri
buted only 41.7% and in 1935
only. 38.7%. There has been a
corresponding increase in the tax
es on consumption which hit the
poorer section of the population
hardest. There is a steady trend
he says toward shifting the tax
burden “from those more able to
pay to those less able to pay.”
“The number of people having in
comes above a generally accepted
subsistence level is seriously
small”, and is declining. The
number reporting taxable in
comes decreased from 5,518,310 in
1930 to 1,747,000 in 1935. But the
number receiving ‘an income of
over a million yearly increased
from 20 in 1932 to 58 in 1935
And 70 percent of these indivi
duals are in 14 families, Jackson
said.
On the same day that Jackson
made public those startling, fi
gures, headlines in New York
papers read: “PROFITS UP
WAGES LOWER . . . “UNEM
PLOYMENT UP 552,000 OVER
1934“ . . . “BANKS SET RE
CORD FOR EXCESS FUNDS “ . .
That National City Bank re
ports that the 260 largest corpora
tions made profits in het first
half of 1935 that were 17.9 per
cent higher than in the same per
iod last year The A. F. of L.
Monthly Survey of Business re
ported that “production and pro
fits are going up, but work hours
are longer and real taxes are
down”. The latest report of the
Federal Reserve shows that capi
tal is “on strike”. Reserves in
the banks increased to an all-time
record of $5,100,000,000 of hoard
ed wealth in vaults. The National
Industrial Conference Board gives
these figures as to what has hap
pened since June 1929; Reduction
in employment—20.4 percent; re
duction in payrolls—40.3 percent ;
increase in cost of living—16.6
percent.
Senator Bilbo
Says Huey Long Is
Enemy No. One
Jackson, Miss., Aug. 31—(By
ANF)—Senator Huey Long, the
Kingfish of Louisiana is “Public
Enemy No. 1” according to Sen
ator Theodore Bilbo, in a series
of addresses he has delivered dur
ing the past few days in behalf
of Hugh White, his chosen guber
natorial candidate. Senator Long,
although not a Mississippian is
alleged to be supporting the can
didacy of Paul E. Johnson, hence
the opprobium of Senator Bilbo
Reasons why Senator Long is
“Public Enemy No. 1” the place
formerly held by A1 Capone, are
listed in part as follows in a
speech delivered here last week:
Huey Long is seeking to elect
Paul Johnson, just as he did Con
ner, so that he can build up his
“Share the Wealth Clubs” and
ultimately his soverignty.
Huey Long advocated permit
ting the Negroes to vote in Demo
cratic primaries. “Let Huey Long
get a foothold in Mississippi and
it won’t be long before he is urg
ing Negroes to vote in Mississippi
as he is doing in Louisiana.”
Huey Long, in his interest to
influence Negroes in his “Share
the Wealth Program” addresses
them as “Mr.” He wrote a letter
to a “coal black Negro, Read, j
and addressed him as Mr. Read.”
Huey Long voted for the pass
age of the Costigan-Wagner anti
lynching bill, not because his con- ;
science dictated it, but because he
could not afford to let down liis
friend “Read” whom he address
ed as “Mr.” and declared him- ,
self to be “Yours faithfully.”
Mrs, Bilbo with Johnson
According to the Memphis
Commercial Appeal, however,
Mrs. Bilbo does not share the
views of her husband, who be
came famous by his avowal that
he would keep silent in the Unit
ed States Senate during the first
term. If this powerful Southern
Daily lie correct, Mrs. Bilbo has
taken up the cudgel for Paul E
Johnson, the man according to all
allegations is being supported by
Senator Huey Long. Mrs. Bilbo,
according to press dispatches,
however, has not defended the
“Kingfish”.
Those who have followed the
Kingfish of Louisiana, recall that
Kingfish Levinsky, Chicago prize
fighter ,at one time exchanged
friendly greetings. Levinsky, the
“Kingfish of Maxwell street”
was knocked from his throne by
Joe Louis, the “Brown Bomber”
so perhaps in seeking the aid of
the colored brother in Louisiana
and Mississippi, the Kingfish of
Louisiana is protecting his dyn
asty from any such occurrence.
