LAW AND CONSTITUTION

Mr.. Storey said there was widespread
tendency to evade the law on the part OF
all classes, from the humblest striker up
TO the president adding: You will lind
this so II you ask by what law automo-
bilists speed through the streets at n
dangerous pace; by what law European
travellers returning 10 this country. some
OF them strong advocates of protection,
evade the custom laws; II you ask by
what law we are in Cuba, and by what
law we have Just authorized the issue of
$780, 10000 In per cents and SO,Wo,oOo

II only the Federal government had ex-
ercised the authority and not the states.
THE tendency TO take domestic affairs
from the control OF the states Is shown
by the agitation I'm favor OF a national In
corporation law. IL IN assumed that the
power TO regulate commerce includes the
right TO regulate the corporation which
is engaged in commerce
"It may be very seriously questioned
whether the mere fact that corporation
or a partnership is engaged in interstate
commerce affords any sound legal rea-
son for assuming that congress has the
right to exercise an exclusive Jurisdiction
over every such corporation and partner
ship.
IF all corporations engaged in inter-
state commerce are to be compelled 10
incorporate under national incorpora-
tion law. why may not congress pro-
ations or the properties which they own!
Congress has already assumed that un-
der its power To regulate commerce IL
can pass an employers liability act and
apply II to all employees of common car
riers engaged in interstate commerce,
even though such employees render no SER
vice in the transportation of interstate
commerce.
"The supreme court will soon pass upon
the constitutionality OF the act and when
that court has spoken we shall know
better than we do now the limits or the
power which congress- can exercise un-
der the commerce clause OF the consutu-
ton"
Mr. Williams OF Philadelphia expressed
himself as a disbelever In changing the

Hon. Garrett Droppers said that the
art of effective administration I'm this
