DIRECT LEGISLATION By THE PEOPLE, 10y
Nathan Cree. 16mo, PIP 1914 chicago: a. u '''
Clurg 81 Co. $500 III. .s,r
The subject Of this little political ueause naiui'
s.ems 10 possess anything more than spec"a'iNo !"
t.r.s+ II relates to the advantage OF combining oirec
nopular legislation with representative insttuuohs ny
OF the Swiss Initiative and referendum III
the little republic certain number OF voters can ""
4, demanding the enactment sanctoning OF popu
lar measure and the whole country can be required 10
vote upon It, While the law IS passed by the egiSia
TORS the voters have the privilege OF an aye OF Hay
which is decisive The author contends that there are
precedents for similar system In the thltcH HU'cS
since the laws In many OF the states enable voters al
their own option 10 initiate action concerning local
matters and to pass Judgment ut specified times con-
corning constitutional conventions or amendments lie
argues that direct popular legislation under proper
modes and forms is at once Democratic ana con
..rvatve tends 10 remedy serious impsrfectons OF the
present system Of law-makng, abatcS the rlgor OF
marty systems and gives play 10 the opinions ana
feelings of the people. The operation OF the SWISS
system is clearly described, and the practicabhty
OF its application to the conditions OF state and Federal
government in the United states is urged With certain
degree Of pausibty. But sufficient allowance Is not
made for differences iD race characteristics which
render popular initiative and a popular veto a
natural procedure in switzerland aud wholly i'm
practicable In Angles Saxon communities. The treatise
Is a scholarly upon which welldirected thought
and reading have been bestowed; but 1t lies wholly
outside the practical domain OF American politics.
