Joe Emerson, well-known to Newark

of the Present Generation.

AS the entering wedge to change
the Constitution of the United
States, because it is obsolete and
antiquated," Representative Victor
l.. Berger, of Wisconsin, only So
ciaiist member of Congress, intro
duced a resolution yesterday in the
House which, if adopted, will give
Congress power to call constitu-
tional conventions. He claims he
has the sympathy of both Demo
Gratis and Republicans with whom
he has conferred.
BEHIND OUR TIMES.
Representative Berger says the Con-
| stitution is not in conformity with the
present conditions. The resolution was
referred to the Judiciary Committee. and
it is doubtful if it will be taken up for
debate during the extra session of Con-
gress. The resolution follows:
Resolved by the Senate and House
Of Representatives of the United States
of America in Congress assembled Uwo-
thirds of each House concurring therein),
That the following article is proposed
as an amendment to the Constitution of
the United States. which, when ratified
by the legislatures of three-fourths of
the several States, shall be valid to all
intents and purposes as a part of the
Constitution:
Article XVII. The Congress shall
have power, by majority vote of both
houses, to call a convention for the pur-
pose of revising or amending the Con-
stitution.' "
In support of his proposed amendment
to the Constitution. Mr.. Berger said:
Our Constitution is antiquated, OBJ
solete. and really a hindrance to any
reasonable growth in our public life. and
therefore 1t should be changed.
Our present Constitution was framed
az a time when this nation was born
and when the country had about three
million inhabitants. At that time the
people were in the main hunters and
farmers in arms, with a small merchant
class in New York, Philadelphia, and
Boston, and cotton planters in the South.
Corporation Meant City.
There were few or no manufacturers.
Manufacturing had been held down by
England, and this fact was one Of the
causes of the Revolution. There were
no railroads, no telegraphs. and no tele-
phones. A corporation in those days
