WOUNDED IN ACTION

as loud as he could: well, boys,

PRESIDENTS NOTE
ASSURES DEATH OF
RANDALL DRY RIDER

President Wilson's firm stand
against the Randall prohibition
amendment to the food stimulation
bill, expressed in a letter to Senator
Sheppard, leaves little doubt but that
the amendment will be killed, 1T was
believed today.
In the light OF the Presidents let
ter. the Agricultural Committee will
meet shortly to consider the Randall
amendment
Frankly, I Vas very much dis
tressed by the action Of the House"
the President wrote. Il do not think
that II is wise or fair to attempt to
put such compuision on the Executive
in matter in which he has already
acted TO the limit OF his authority.
What Is almost entirely overlooked
Is that there are, am informed, very
large stocks Of whiskey in this coun-
try. and IL seems to me quite certain
that, IL the brewing OF beer were
prevented entirely along with the
other drinks, many Of them harm
less, which are derived from food or
foodstuffs, the consumption OF whis-
key would be stimulated and increas-
ed to a very considerable extent.
''Myown judgment is that it Is wise
and statesmanlike to let the situation
stand as 1t Is for the present, until at
any rate shall be appraised, by the
Food Administration that Il Is neces-
sary In the way suggested still fur
Their to conserve the supply OF food
and foodstuffs The Food Administra-
ton has not thought IT necessary to
60 any further than we have in that
matter already gone.
Il thank you most cordially, Sena-
tor, for your kindness in consulting
me in this matter, which is Of very
considerable Importance and has a
very direct bearing upon many col
lateral questions"

The House" passed the bird bill"
236 to 40, after debating it all day
and amending it so that searches
must be made by the Agricultural De-
partment only with court warrant.
Mr.. Bland OF Indiana said that il
some check were not put on the men
OF one idea" we might as well as have
government by commission altogeth-
er. with "whippersnappers" from the
Department Of Agriculture dominating
the country. All OF which might cas-
lily have been avoided by common
sense in keeping unnecessary compul-
sion out of the bill. II the Senate
passes the bill, migratory birds. at
least. will be properly protected in
"life. liberty, and the pursuit Of hap
piness."

The Ways and Means Committee OF
the House held an executive session
yesterday on bills OF minor impor-
lance. The open hearings" on the
revenue bill. postponed until today
are expected to begin with George {.
March. OF New York. representing the
National Tax Association. The entire
absence of anything like a rush to
advise the Ways and Means Com
mittee is something OF a mystery.
The new billion-dollar arithmetic may
have partly paralyzed many Of the
thousands who once felt able to run a
better government than there has yet

This is a mere variation OF the is
sue we had in the Senate yesterday
as the most important Of the day.
1t came on Senator Owens argument
that the courts have no right TO pass
on OF "nullify" acts representing the
will Of both Houses OF Congress and
of the President He proposed that
in a given case in point. Congress
should forbid the Supreme Court to
pass on an act of Congress after its
approval by the President. The
case in point was the recent decision
OF the Supreme Court against the
Child Labor laY-the merits OF which
are not here to be considered. Rein
Producing the original act, Senator
owen had attached a new section
prohibiting the courts from deClar-
ing II void, or unconstitutional, TAX
ing away jurisdiction over it. from
the Supreme Court. and vacating the
offices OF all executive and Judicial
officers contesting it. He spoke IN
support Of this with great earnest
ness and sincerity. denying that the
judiciary is a coordinate branch OF
the Government, and treating as
usurpation of power from the time
OF Chief Justice Marshall to date, all
court decisions. declaring the nullity
of act OF Congress on the ground that
they violate the supreme law OF the
land"

Unless Il is to win the war when
the Constitution does not count, we
can never have a National Establish
ed Church in the United States be-
cause the Constitution will not per
nit it. II such an act were passed
the use OF having a Supreme Court
is to have it declared null because
unconstitutional, and to vindicate all
American citizens, who being intel
ligent enough TO know the Constitu-
ton Of their country-knowledge OF
which is the first and final test OF
American patriotism-had shown the
courage to stand up for it and sup

rules resulted in no conclusion.
Senator Lewis. Of Illinois expressed
the opinion that though the Senate
has orators. oratory is a lost art, be-
cause II Clay. Webster. and Calhoun
were alive now. speaking as once
they spoke, they would soon empty
the Senate. In his own greatest ef-
forts, Senator Lewis has not demon
strated this fully. If the roll has to
be called frequently when great ora
tors now turn the first hour to get
some one into the seats for the sec
ond, it is not a novelty. Edmund
Burke still keeps his reputation as
the greatest orator OF modern times"
That rank Is conceded him even in
Chicago. Yet It is said that no one in
could empty the benches
more quickly than Edmund Burke.

Senator Galiinger yesterday forced
Senator shafroth TO admit once more
that the Susan B. Anthony Suffrage
Amendment" was being postponed be-
cause the Democratic managers were
still three votes short The discus
sion showed a good deal OF concealed
dissatisfaction among Senators who.
if they leave Washington, are afraid
they will get a telegram at a "tank
station" somewhere, calling on them
to return At once and vote. As they
were manifestly afraid to speak for
themselves, finally Senator. Knute
Nelson, the great viking leader Of
the Northwest. spoke out like a man
that is, "juSt like a man.. He said
In effect that the Senate was being
managed completely by the woman's

from women all over the country be-
cause Of the delay. He was extreme
