January 23, 1929 issue

add to cart   close window

This article presents information about political developments in the U.S. as of January 23, 1929. Through the generosity of a reader the journal "The Nation" is able to offer a prize of $150 for the best essay, 3,600 words in length, on the general subject of "What Is Making for War with England?" The Kellog Peace Pact, which was ratified by the Senate on January 15 was a feeble enough instrument to begin with and it was made still feebler by the report of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that the treaty does not prejudice our freedom of action in maintaining the Monroe Doctrine and in protecting citizens abroad.
