Powers of Congress Limited.

Senator Pomerene bases his entire
conclusion on the statement that Con
gress possesses only limited delegated
powers and that the Constitution cN-
pressly provides for the appointment
Of electors by states in such manner
as the legisiat cures thereof may direct
It does not allow Congress to give
these directions, the senator points out.
After introducing his argument by quo
tations from the Constitution Senator
Pomerene says that the only power
Congress has in the matter is to fix
the time of choosing electors and the
day on which the votes shall be given
in, and then goes on to say:
1T will be noted that under these
constitutional provisions each state APP
points the electors in such manner as
the legislature thereof may direct not
as Congress may direct. The only
power given to Congress is to fix the
time of choosing the electors. and the
day on which they shall give their
throughout the United States.
Congress possesses only limited
delegated powers. Any power it may
seek to exercise must find it's source
in the Constitution. The manifest pur-
pose OF the trainers of the Constitution
was to leave the selection of the cleo
tors wholly with the states. They dele
gated no power on this subject to
Congress save only to fix the time of
choosing the electors, and the day on
which they should cast their votes
Clearly. Congress is given no control
over presidential elections by express
words, except as above indicated nor
can it necessarily be implied from the
language quoted. And if such power is
not conferred upon Congress with re-
spect to the presidential elections it
