Laws Of Different States
Should Be Uniform
BY CHARLES THADDEUS TERRY,
President Commission ON
Uniform State Laws

IT is not more law, but uniform
law, that our country needs.
The movement rests upon the
proposition that if we are really a
nation there is no reason why imag-
mary lines should cut off in matters
of law one section of the country
from another. The theory is that
if any citizen of this nation is af-
fected in his life, liberty, property
or pursuit of happiness by the laws
of the various states those laws
should be uniform.
EITHER THE STATES MUST
BRING ABOUT SUCH UNIFORMITY
OR THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
MUST DO 1T. FOR THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT TO DO 1T MEANS

EXTENSION OF THE POWERS OF
THE CENTRAL GOVERNMENT BE-
