COURT UPHOLDS SEAMEN'S ACT

Mobile, Ala.-rhc seamen'S law was
declared constitutional by Federal Judge
Erwin in decision which, so far as
known, is the first constituting the legal
ity of this act The court ruled that
certain men of the Russian vessel I'm
bcrhorne were entitled to full pay and
discharge at this port, as they asked,
without deductions, as is prescribed by
law. The contention OF the Russian CON
sui that the law was contrary to the old
treaty between this country and Russia
was denied.
Before the scamcn'S law was passed
these sailors would be arrested by
United States authorities, on complaint
of the Russian consul, and placed back
on the ship.

Columbus, Ohio.-Matt Nef, trade
union official, has been found not guilty
Of "lotering' by Judge Kinkead, who
rules that speaking of any kind can
not be considered as "loitering."
This decision is the outcome of an
attempt last summer to stop trade
union agitation, Neff was arrested for
talking from an automobile in front of
the Jeffrey Manufacturing Company
plant. Organizer Morris of the Ma
chinsts' Union was arrested on similar
charges, but was acquitted During the

Oklahoma City, Okla.-"I have de-
manded that Congress should exercise
its plain, conceded constitutional right
and withdraw from the federal court
the power to declare the acts of Con-
gress unconstitutional" said United
States Senator Owen, in a public de-
fense of his joint resolution which
would prohibit federal judges invalidat-
ing acts of Congress.
The people are overwhelmingly op-
posed to the usurpation of power by the
federal judiciary. The constitution
speaks for itself 1t puts the sovereign
power in Congress, the power to control
the appellate jurisdiction and this to
prevent the exercise of the judicial veto,
if it is attempted. 1t has been attempt
ed. 1t has been exercised 1t is proven
highly mischevous. 1t has become I'M
endurable.
when the United States supreme
Court declared the Missouri compromise
act, passed by Congress, unconstitu.
tional and slavery constitutional right,
it took war to settle the frightful err
ror of this judicial usurpaton.
When the supreme court declared
the legal tender act void, it took from
the government one of the strongest in
strumentalities for the protection of this
great republic. This gross error was
corrected by putting additional judges
on this bench, who corrected the pre-
vious decision by reversing it. 1t was
an undignificd remedy, but better than
none.
Congress has this remedy, of course,
of expanding the sl1Dreme court and
