"CoNSTITUTIONALITY."
Can Constitutional Amendment Be
Unconstitutional?


Our weekly contemporary, the Re-
view, whose opinions are generally in
telligent and often striking, asks in a
headline, but does not attempt to an
swer, this interesting question: Can
constitutional amendment be uncon-
stitutional?"
As to the question whether there can
be such thing as an unconstitutional
constitutional amendment; whether,
for example, the 18th amendment it
self as ratified is subject TO review and
to arrest in any particular, precisely as
legislation attempted by the Volstead
act. passed under the authority OF the
18th amendment, may be reviewed
by the court and declared void be
cause of unconstitutionaity, there is
an answer. which seems to us clear
and conclusive.
Suppose that the following amend
ment should by some chance be rati-
fed by three-fourths of the states, and
having been regularly proclaimed,
should 90 to the supreme court, in the
shape OF some law enacted under its
authority, for the final test of legali-
ty and validity, one-fourth or even less
OF the states protesting against its en-
forcement:
After one year from the ratification
Of this article the representation OF
any state in the Senate of the United
States shall be prUportionate toi the
population of that state.
"The Congress and the several states
shall have concurrent power 70 enforce.
this article by appropriate legislation
and to determine the basis OF repre-
sentation and the process of apportion-
ment."
Can anybody, lawyer or layman,
doubt the power of the supreme court
To declare the unconstitutioDality not
merely Of a law enacted under this
supposed amendment, but also Of the
supposed amendment itself? For the
article of the constitution which pre-
scribes the method of amendment ex-
pressIv provides that no state, without
its consent, shall be deprived of its
equal suffrage in the Senate. :.
Here, then, is an obvious illustrs-

late Olympic contests in which the Amer
leans were overwhelmingly victorious.
The r. 'ivre of the americans to clean
up" IN the track events above the spirits
led the foreign experts to draw the con-
clusion that the new generation OF
Yankee athletes lacks endurance and
1t is a matter of record that the Amer
leans did fall to take any Of the dis
tance ey ants with the exception Of the
300 metre team race, won on the last
day Of the games.
But the conclusion OF the European
critics that RI poor showing was tho
result Of q decline in the physical powers
OF the new school OF American athletes
is wrong.
NOT FAULT OF
MEN THEMSELVES.
The American distance runners did not
sweep the tracks as did the sprinters. be-
cause they had no opportunity to train.
