Calvin (Only column in the Negro Press listed by Editor and Publisher) Ethiopia Lost The vote of the League Council at Geneva last Thursday legally and officially If iadecl the doom of the ancient kingdom of Ethio pia. It is now Italian East Africa, or whatever Italy chooses to call it. There is not much use in mourn ing the fate of Ethiopia. There is nothing the Negro people can do about its betrayal by England and France. However, there is an im portant lesson in this tragedy, alike for individuals and govern ments. It is, self-reliance. Ethio pia counted too heavily on others coming to her aid. In the years when she wwas affluent, as when Haile Selassie was being crowned King of Kings and Herbert Hoover was sending his autographed pho tograph as a present and the American Negro was being very largely ignored,—that was the time for Ethiopia to be taking precautions against Italy. We who live in America can still be thankful that Uncle Sam is able to protect his own shores from invasion, thus giving us a measure of security—at least against new enemies or new op pressors.

Dr. Haynes says: “The evangelical denominations, Negro and white, cannot single handed and separately successfully grapple with this hydra-headed monster of race hatred, bigotry and prejudice. We must move for ward with united forces. Negro masses are being told that the road of violence and revolution is the only highway to manhood rights and opportunity. This somes to them in no uncertain terms by leaders of radical groups. If we are to hold their loyalty and con vince them that the wav of good will and understanding is the way toward democratic equality and in justice, we must close the gaps in our own ranks. "Our churches today lack unity and vision; many of our church methods are outworn and do not meet the requirements of these terrible times. The church must strengthen its able leadership. That leadership must be an inform ed leadership; a leadership of knowledge. It must be a leader ship of courage. The times demand men and women who will stand for the rights of the' people, the right of liberty of movement, the right to equality before the law, equal pay for equal work, equal treatment on the job, the right of privilege to share in all agencies that control the forces that make their lives. Leaders should put the good of the people they serve be fore their own person al profit. In stead of fighting each other in a mad cramble for honor ar.d for of fice. real leaders should vie with each o*-her in seeing how much of themselves they can devvote to the advancement of all the people. This is not only good religion); it is plain common self-interest of the highest kind. If the masses of the people do not share largely in the wealth of America our churches cannot grow and flourish. The challenge, then, is for unity of or ganization in the church, uity of the Negro church." New Editors We are pleased to note the new trend in the selection of editors of fratrnity publications.

Next November every 1 member of the House and about a third of the members of the Sen-1 ate must go again before the vo- 1 ters for re-election. As a result, I the lawmakers are keeping their ears to the ground and seeking to mend their political fences—some of which are badly broken down.. That is a hard job in an ordinary election year. Today, with a major depression confronting them, with | a large number of great, unsettled issues raging about their heads,, with the cleavage between the fri ends and opponents of the Roose cvelt Administration growing shar er it is much harder than usual And that goes a long way toward explaining some of Congress re cent remarkable actions. The Wage and Hours bill is a case in point. Administration leaders frankly gave up all hope for passage of this measure some time ago—it was strongly opposed by the influential Southern bloc of the Democratic party, which wish es to keep the existing wage dif ferential between Northern and Southern labor. The White House pressed on behalf of the bill, but its chances of success seemed slight. Then came the Florida sen atorial primary—long awaited as a test of New Deal strength. Tin issues in this primary were fairly clear-cut—Senator Pepper, an ar dent Roosevelt backer, who has voted for practically even’ White House sponsored measure, was op posed by ex-Representative Wil cox, an anti-New Deal Democrat who had opposed the Supreme Court and government reorganiza tion measures. Senator Pepper won an overwhelming victory. And a dav or two later when) a Wage and Hours bill petition was offer ed in the House, there was almost a riot as members fought to get their names signed to it. Then the House Rules Committee voted to give the bill precedence. Whether the Wage n"d Hours law will go through is still a mat ter of question—chances are now in its favor, however, and lately it has received some unlooked-for hacking from conservative sources, such as the New England shoe in dustry. The main point is that the President’s strength in Congress has been measurably increased by the Pepper win. Talk is even beintg heard of reviving the once-defeat ed Reorganization bill. And it is almoso a certainty that the Ad ministration's new spending pro gram will go through practically in its original form. In brief, the President Isn’t as influential in Congress as he was in the honeymoon days of 1932 and 1933—but he seems stronger than he was a few months ago. This doesn’t mean that White House “must” orders will be obeyed with out question—tit does mean that a large number of congressmen! who kicked over the traces, have re turned to the t eservatf on. and the current outlook indicates that the President will issue fewer “musts” in the future—he and his aides are dealing rather gingerly with Congress, are using persua sion rather than hard mandates. No President wants any more pol itical turmoil than is necessary in an election year. Coming primaries will provide more evidence as to the status of the New Deal in public esteem. The Pepper victory, while it was significant, is not regarded by most observers as being final— other issues than Federal policy played a part, and the Senator is a campaigner of unusual ability. Not until tests have been made in other states. will the burning question of just how strong the President is with the rank and file of voters, be settled. Most forecasters think he has lost some support, but that he still commands p good majority in his favor. Fur thermore. the New Deal faces lit tle opposition outside of its own ranks—the Republicans have so far made what even their backers regard as an ineffectual assault against the New Deal citadel. All the authorities tihnk that the GOP will make some gains in the House his fall—but that they will be . small. Prospects for world recovery are moderately good. Governmental ef- i forts to “prime the pump” are | largely futile. That is the gist of the speech made recently at the annual general meeting of the Bank for International Settlements at Basle, Switzerland, by J. W. Boren its president. Beven gave considerable atten tion to the “experiments” under taken in this country during the depression,. While he condemned po sepcifi action, he took the at titude that they had failed. He ex pressly deplored currency devalu ation. Of more tangible importance, the IS’ president’s reports observed that 19:17 expei-ienve proved that abundant gold reser | and cheap money do not necessarily keep i prices from falling, and that ec onomic nationalism, with its chao tic monetary policies has contri buted to world disorder. And he observed that the “main incentive to recovery is still the expectation of a sufficient margin of profit over a sufficiently long time,” ac cording tto the Wall Street Jour nal’s Paris correspondent.
