WHAT is UNREASONABLE?

TUDGE THOMPSON, of the federal
q court, differs with other federal
judges in deciding the uucnforccability
of the Lever act, which forbids "un
reasonable" profits He says that there
is no fixed standard in the law by which
the reasouablencSs of the profits can be
measured.
Other federal Judges have allowed
cases to come TO trial before them in
which merchants were accused Of max
ing profit Of 100 per cent, and in
two cases in New York the jures have
found verdicts of guilty.
In no case, however, SO far a. it is
known, has il been held that Congress
save under its war power. could put any
restriction upon the profits of busi-
ness man. The powers of Congress arc
clearly defined in the constitution and
there is no provision in that document
dealing with profits. Attempts under
the interstate commorr" clause have
been made to put all sorts Of rrstrlc-
,tions on business, but tho supreme
Court has decided that most Of them
were invalid. The latest instance was
when it upset the child labor act. which
forbade shipment in interstate commerce
of goods in the manufacture Of which
children had been employed
The Supreme Court will have 10 pass
on the Lever act before it become,
wholly eticacious in Furnishing prof
iteers.

slider bills sent him, such bills lapse
unless he has signed them before ad-
journment." This, however, is a state
ment of fact and not constitutional
argument.
The constitutional provision touching
this matter reads "1f any bill shall
not be returned by the President within
ten days Sundays exceptcd) after It
shall have been presented to him, the
same shall be law in like manner as
IL he had signed 1t, unless the Congress
by their adjournment prevent its return,
in which case Il shall not be a law
1t is possible to argue both ways on
this provision. The attorney general
evidently holds that it's restrictions
apply only to bills which the President
signature and docs not automatically
kill n measure which the President may
desire to sign after giving proper con
sideration to it within the ten day limit
The courts have never passed on the
point. for all Presidents have accepted
the theory that the adjournment auto
matically killed every bill which had
not been approved before the gavcl fell
in the Senate and the House.
It is iuconccivablc that Mr.. Palmer
has volunteered his opinion on this
constitutional point. It must have been
asked by the President, who wished to
find way to approve of the repeal of
such of the wartime laws as seemed to
him best and thus spike the guns Of the
opposition during the presidential cam
nniyn.

SUGAR RATIONING AGAIN

yIyHEN sugar rationing goes into ef-
w feet in hotels and restaurants on
June n. the next thing to be expected
will be the rationng of private con-
sumers.
The muddled sugar situation seems to
leave no other course open if the avail
able supply is to 90 around. But the
necessity for it has been forced upon
the country by the failure of the ad
ministration to act while there was time
to secure an adequate supply Of sugar
for this country.
This neglect is one Of the things
against which the administration will
have to defend itself during the presi
dental campaign. With the households
ers unable 10 get sugar enough for their
needs, it will find the task both difficult
and unpleasant.

stead of placing the burden of defense
wholly upon his Democratic opponent,
It opens the Republican standard bearer
to attack hard to resist since there Is no
specific promise in detail Of the kind Of
international league the party favors.
He will have to explain from the start

strategy. And since the plank is only
vaguely critical without being con
