the letter and spirit of the constitution.
Such proposition, l believe, would not
survive the test of constitutionality in the
supreme court. But the result of even an
attempt on the part of congress to seize
the power of the states and deprive them
of so large measure of control would be
most unfortunate.
Merits of Claims
1T is not my purpose to discuss the
merits of the various claims for an in
crease of the federal power at the ex-
pense of the states In the end such of
them as are favorably acted upon by con-
gress will have to pass the test of con-
stitutionality before that greatest of all
courts the supreme court of the United
States and such statutes will stand or
fall as they show or fail to show, fidelity
to the spirit and purpose of the constitu
tion.
''The attempts however. on the part
of ,le federal government to despoil
the states of the powers and functions
belonging to them, will not tend to
smoothness i'm the working of our dual
scheme of government. Already it has
had it's effects. The indignation of the
governing forces of many of the states
is already aroused. 1t is shown in the
legislation of the year. 1t had not
little to do. in my Judgment, with the
recent conflict of judicial authority in
North Carolina"

winter: Rain is badly needed in

Remember what | say,
That if l told you everything

Just take the products of the earth,
From every land and cline,
And Texas soil will equal
IL The best grown, every time.
"Why, SIR" said he, "If walls were
built.
Around US ten miles high,
We'd have the best Of everything
and. wouldn't halfway try.
We have our mines, our countless
herds,
And industries galore;
And hands that work and hearts
