CLAYTON BILL N1oUrTY.

The Bar. the ofhcial Journal of the
West Virginia Bar Association. con-
tains q legal view Of some OF the pro-
visions Of the Clayton antitrust bill.
which the President Is pushing to its
final passage this week Ii Is not the
Judgment OF partisan. but the conciu-
sions Of legal mind considering the
iilegality. the unconstitutionality of
the enactment that effects class legis-
lation- The Bar. without using any
softening phrases. says that the per-
sistent effort by ward politicians In
Congress TO secure to certain classes
of organized labor exemption from the
operation OF the Sherman act is the
most pernicious effort at class lesisla-
ton that has ever been made in the
open by the national legislature
This representative legal journal de-
clares further that the vice In the
movement is not in the pretended de-
sire to favor the farmer. toward
whom the whole public is Inclined to
be gracious. but II is the strike at
the fundamental principle that our
government owes no preference and
tolerates no prejudice in its admins
tration toward any class OF its citi-
gems. All must be equal before the
law" The whole case is succinctiy
stated in the following quotation from
an exchange:
Is evidently the purpose OF the
senate and House conferees on the Clay
ton bill TO create by statute a privileged
class among Americans whose Individual
and collective conduct shall be exempt
from the restraints that modify the
s sSu OF others, and whose members
which their fellow citizens are liable.
How dangerous to the public welfare
success IN the attempt TO accomplish
THIS object would be Is plain. The prin-
ciple OF favoritism on which IL fs based
Is directly subversive OF that equality
which Is n fundamental necessity OF
that must result from such a division OF
me population menace the whole struc-
ture OF society.
The Bar has been quoted at this
length because 1t supports the same
contentious advanced by The IntenI-
seneer when the matter was first
mooted in Congress. and when Presi-
dent Wilson. at the formative period
OF the Clayton bill. was vigorously
opposing the Incorporation OF the cx-
emption in the measure. Since then.
however. he has changed his mind.
owing TO the persistent threats OF the
ward politicians In Congress" to re-
volt IL 1t was not allowed 10 stand in
the bill. The Bar, as a final comment.
concludes that the proposition forces
upon the country the question "wheth-
er we have among the various labor
organizations any class or classes
which are above and beyond the law
and outside the obligations and liabili-
ties Of other groups Of citizens. All
productive labor is entitled to every
advantage that the law confers on any
citizen or group of citizens. but also
should be made amenable to every re.
striction that the law imposes for the
common good. Any other rule or
policy leads inevitably to anarchy"

Ious iAther who has asked the assist
ance OF Congressman Large Suth-
eriarro. In securing the release OF his
son from the German army. The
SOD John Stalk. Jr.. was to spend the
su amer in Germany, and the last
rvs heard from him was from Stuff
tEsrt, where he had been impressed
INTO the German army. Congressman
sutherland has taken the matter up
with the State Department as the
rather Is naturalized American citi-
zen. which exempts his son from the
call OF the Fatherland for military
duty. Mr.. Sutherland has been at
the state Department every day for
over week. without being able to
secure any definite information as TO
what was being done. and was Justly
indignant. when. on his last visit, he
discovered that the papers in the case
had been lost track Of. and, so far. as
ne could see. nothing had been done
toward the release OF the young man.
As young Stalk is said TO be at the
front, each day of delay caused
through the red tape Of diplomacy, in
creases the danger for him. and the
anxiety OF those of his family who
await news in West Virginia. Mr.
Stak has been assured that the case
