Lawyer Frank Billings Kellogg of St. Paul, Minn. thought he had erected his everlasting monument when, as U. S. Secretary of State (1925-1929), he fathered the anti-war pact which bore his name with that of France's late great Aristide Briand, and which was duly signed in Paris by 15 leading nations, including Japan, Italy and Germany. Ever since Mr. Kellogg's successor Henry Lewis Stimson made his abortive attempt to invoke the Pact against Japan in 1931, Mr. Kellogg's monument has seemed increasingly hollow. Last week, not as a Government official...
...date, however, acceptances have been received from Adolph A. Berle '13, lawyer, professor, business executive and present Chamberlain of New York City; James W. Hook, president of the Geometrical Tool Company of New Haven and a member of President Hoover's National Organization of Unemployment Relief, and Charles W. Kellogg, chairman of the Board of The Engineers Public Service Corporation. Beside these three, a large number of men are still unheard from; more business men have been queried with regard to this table than any two others...
...Then, on Dec. 15. a Western Air Express Boeing vanished in Utah with seven aboard. On Dec. 18 a Northwest Air Lines Lockheed vanished with two pilots, but no passengers, aboard.

On Dec. 23, a Braniff Air Lines Lockheed plumped to earth at Dallas on a test flight, killed six. Total...
...wreckage just behind us and still with us are millions of un-employed, to leave aside the larger number of millions who are habitually existing in stark poverty. Out of the poverty of capitalism there is fast growing a new armaments race to make us poorer. Despite Leagues and Kellogg pacts, imperialism is still a strong, if disintegrating, reality in all its older centres and is blossoming out in new slaughter and exploitation in Manchuria and in Ethiopio. Palme Dutt ably reviews these matters and events, and does well it call attention to the centrality of Germany...
Another important negative at Buenos Aires was the omission of the U. S. last week to join in otherwise unanimous approval by the Americas of linking up the principal American and other peace treaties (such as the Kellogg-Briand Pact) with the League of Nations. Chilean Delegate Felix Nieto Del Rio put Messrs. Hull & Welles on a spot by declaring the U. S. had "abstained." They got off by insisting the U. S. had "withheld." In any case the U. S. is not having any League of Nations in its Good Neighborhood this week, and Geneva can smoke that...
