HE SLAUGHTER HOUSE CASES.

The effect Of these amendments
was first dealt with by this Court in
the Slaughter House Cases, 16 Wal
lace 36. The reasons for the adoD-
|tion OF the amendments were clab,
|orately considered by a court ia
|miliar with the times in which the
necessity for the amendments arose,
and with the circumstances, which
|impclled their adoption. In that
ease, Mr. Justice Miller, who spoke
for the majority. pointed out that
The colored race, having been freed
from slavery by the Thirteenth
Amendment. was raised to the dig
nifty Of citizenship and equality Of
civil rights by the Fourteenth
amendment, and the States were
prohibited from abridging the priv
Iilcges and immunities of such citi-
Izens, or depriving any person of
fife, liberty or property without due
process Of law. While principle
purpose of the latter Amendment
Twas to protect persons Of color, the
broad language used was deemed
Sufficient to protect all persons,
white or black, against discrmina-
tory legislation by the States This
lis now the settled law. In many
lof the cases since arising the dues
ltion Of color has not been involved
land the cases have been decided
upon alleged violations Of civil or
property rights, irrespective OF the
race or color of the complainant.
In the Slaughter House cases it was
recognized that the chief induce
|mcnt to the passage Of the Amend
imcnt was the desire to extend Fed
lcraI projections to the recently
Icmancipated race from unfricndly
and discriminating legislation by the
States.

THE WAR AMENDMENTS

| FOLLOWING the Civil War, certain
amendments to the Federal Consti-
Itntion were adopted. which have be-
come an integral part Of that instru-
Iment, equally binding upon all the
Estates and fixing certain funda-
mental rights which all are bound to
respect. The Thirteenth Amend
lment abolished slavery in the United
States and in all places subject to
their jurisdiction. and gave Con-
lgrcss power to enforce the Amend
Iment by appropriate legislation. The
Fourteenth Amendment made all
persons born or naturalizod in the
united States, citizens of the United
States and OF the States in which
)thcy reside, and provided that no
lState shall make or enforce any law
(which shall abridge the privileges
Tor immunitics of citizens OF the
united States, and that no State
shall deprive any person Of life, lib
lerty or property without due pro-
lccss or law, nor deny to any person
the equal protection of the laws.

November first the United State.
government one of the few
arguments of some housewives against
home food conservation by making
food conservation compulsory or
manufacturers, wholesalers, jobbers
and many retailers of the country's
basic food products.
The plan becomes effective under
presidential order.
Coming at the height of the food
pledge week campaign, it is consid-
cred by the food administration a
conclusive answer to the housewives
who have said:
"Why should I sign the food pledge
to conserve food in my home when
the manufacturers are wasting it,
spectators r boosting it's prices and
anti-Americans are boarding it in
enormous quantities 2"
There will be no more of that. All
the great manufacturers and whole
salers who have been accused of con-
trolling the market are today forbid
den to do business except under gov
eminent license.
This includes those engaged in the
"import, manufacture, storage and
distribution" of the fundamental food

wheat flour, rye or rye flour, barley
or barley flour oats, oatmeal OF
| rolled oats; corn, corn grits, cornmeal

ton; poultry or eggs; fresh or frozen
fish; fresh fruits or vegetables; can
ned peas, tomatoes, corn, salmon OF
sardines; dried prunes, apples, peach
es or %raisins, sugar, syrup or mo-
lasses.
This, the food pledge week cam
paigners pointed out, put the house
wife, the packer and the dealer in
food on a par in the saving campaign.
With this distinction; the housewives
are being asked to conserve voluntar-
lily the needed war foods, meat, wheat,
fats and sugar. The packers and deal
ers have accepted restrictions aimed
to adjust e%xorbitant prices at the
source.
Replying to the further criticism
that leaving retailers doing less than
500, 900 worth of business a year un-
licensed doesn't help the high retail
situation much, a food administration
official said:
eve were not authorized by con-
gress to license retailers doing less
than 100000 a year business. How
ever, the control of retail prices is
really in the hands of the housewives.
We now control the basic products up
to the small retailers door. We will
tell the public what price the retailer
pays for those products. Then it will
be up to the buying housewives to
see that no retailer sells to them for
more than a fair margin of profit"
"But," added the official, 1--WE feel
sure that no housewife will use any
retailers unpatriotic attempt at pro-
fiteering as a reason for not doing her
bit toward war food conservation"

stuffs named. 1t embraces meat
packers, cold storage, warehousemen,
millers, Gamers, elevators, grain deal
ers and retailers doing a business of
more than 100000 a year.
These dealers have been warned
that any one of them who has been
found manipulating or specializing in
these foods, who boards them, who
EFFORTS unreasonable profits, or who
INDUCES in discriminatory practices in
handling them, will be subject to a
fine of $4,000 or two years in prison
or both. Hoarded food will be seized
by the government.
Conspiracy on the part of dealers
to defeat the purposes of the food
law is punishable by $4,000 fine or
two years. imprisonment.
The government. will watch these
dealers and consider them as patri-
otically living up to the provisions of
the license until by their own acts
they prove that the confidence is mis-
placed. Such cases will be dealt with
summarily. H.
No firm in the list can do business
without a government license after
November l. And under the license,
each firm or person licensed must re-
port what has been going on his
business since the last report. A
special legal department has been or
gained in the food administration to
enforce these regulations.
Dealers affected are those packing
or handling in a large way wheat.
