The piece surveys commerce power limits, Abyssinian resistance to Mussolini, and the political risks for Haile Selassie and Europe. It notes the U.S. Chamber of Commerce objections to income and inheritance taxes and reflects on American government growth, Austrian affairs, anti-Semitic acts, and health whispers about President Roosevelt.
