Not Csurpatlon

MUCH has been said in recent years OF
lVl usurpaton OF power by the President.
This is the outgrowth Of n conviction that
The presidency has by progressive processes
become more and more important Office,
and that the man who occupies the White
House has taken upon himself responsible
ties not contemplated when the Constitution
was drafted, and has acquired dangerous
lrerogatiyes which threaten to unbalance
the Federal government a system. 1t
il no doubt true that the presidency has be-
come more powerful in latter years With
great and virle leaders such as Theodore
Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson in the ex-
ccutivc chair. and with the House and Senate
composed of men of smaller caliber. the
natural result has been an enlargement OF
the influence OF the executive department.
an enlargement brought about TO some cx-
tent at the expense Of the legislative depart
ment. Then, too the country has found
that the President is more directly respon-
sivc TO the public will than is Congress, and
las come to look To that Office for the leader
ship which great figures in the past exercised
on the floors of the House and Senate
But II is one thing TO admit the growing
power OF the chief executive and quite an
other thing 10 prove usurpation on the part
OF the presidency, or to show that in making
that usurpation effective the President has

BRYAN ANNOUNCES
HIS TREATY PLANK
Urges Ratification With Majority
Reservations, Flatly Opposing
President Wilson.

San Francisco. June 29.-William Jen-
nings Bryan made public yesterday after
noon the platform plank which he will
propose on the League of Nations. 1t
differs entirely from the Administration s
suggestion and places the Commoner
unequivocally in the attitude of fighting
President Wilson. In brief, the Bryan
plank aims to get the Peace Treaty
adopted without delay and offers way
for the appoin tment of delegates to the
League os Nations and the entrance of
the United States INTO the organization
without breaking down American tradl-
tions generally IL follows his recently
announced program, namely the ratliica-
tiop of the treaty with such reservations
as a majority of the Senators may agree
upon. reserving for the future the making
OF such changes as we may deem necessary.
The Bryan plank demands an amend
ment of the Federal Constitution to pro-
vide for a ratification of treaties by a
majority vote and favors the immediate
reconvening Of the Senate to ratify the
Treaty of Versailles with reservations
agreeable to the majority
This is the text of the Bryan plank:
The Democratic party demands an
amendment to the Federal Constitution
providing for ratification of treaties by
? majority vote, so that it will be rs
easy to end war as it is TO declare
war Planting ourselves upon the most
fundamental principle of popular gov
rrnment, namely, the right OF the people
q rule-a doctrine IN support of which
we have recently spent over 25,000,-
OCO 600 of dollars and for which we have
sacrificed 100000 precious lives-we favor
an immediate reconvening of the Senate.
that this principle may be applied to
the treaty controversy and ratification
secured with such reservations as a
majority of the Senators may agree upon,
rcscrving for the future the making of
such changes as we may deem Necessary.
We favor appointment by the Presi
cent. with the consent of the Senate,
b! delegates to represent this nation in

gates are elected and qualified

yesterday by the explosion Of q dryer.
Frank Walsh, the presidents brother,
lost an arm and suffered other injuries
which may prove fatal.
Fumes had been troubling workmen for
some days and the three men went to the
factory ahead of the day force to work
machinery designed to remove the fumes.
When the door of an overheated dryer
was opened flames shot forth and ignited
gases, causing the explosion.
When informed of her husbands death,
Mrs. Walsh ran from their apartment
nearby, fought her way through thou
sands OF spectators and attempted to
enter the burning building
Let me go to him. she said, "he is in
side. Let me save him"
Walsh was formerly connected with the
National Rubber Company. He came here
from Chicopee Falls, Mass, to establish
a new business. The factory had just been

by popular vote in districts, in order that
the people may speak through reprcscn-
tatives of their own choice IN the august
tribunal which will consider the welfare
of the world.
"These delegates should be instructed
not TO vote for war without specific in
struction from Congress or from the
people, given by referendum vote.
"Our nations delegates should also
be instructed to insist upon the dis
armament of the world in order that the
burden of militarism may be lifted from
the shoulders of those who toll, and the
foundation o. an enduring peace laid
in friendship and cooperation.
Another plank prepared by the Ne
braskan deals with profitecring. This
recommends. that all officers and en-
ployes of corporations which give or
carry out instructions that result in ex-
.tortion shall be subject to the penalties
of criminal law. 1t further proposes
that it shall be unlawful for those en-
gagged in interstate commerce to make
the sale of one commodity dependent
upon the purchase of another. To pro-
tect the public against an extortionate
selling price, the plank recommends
legislation to require corporations to
disclose the difference between cost and
selling price. Another step against profiteer-
ing is the recommendation that State
trade commissions shall be created to pro-
tect the local communities, as the Federal
Trade Commission is now empowered to
deal with interstate transactions.
The profiteering plank reads as fol-
lows:
'"The Democratic party pledges the
nation to rid it of the profteer and to
close the door against his return. 1t
will endeavor to eliminate all unneces-
sary middlemen BY the encouragement
of organizations among producers that
will bring those who sell and those who
use nearer together. 1t will enact and
enforce laws that will effectively pre-
vent excessive charges by such middle
men as are necessary. TIC this end 1T
will demand legislation subjecting to the
penalties of the criminal law all cor
porate officers and employees who give
or carry out instructions that result In
extortion 1t will make it unlawful for
any one engaged in interstate commerce
to make the sale of one article depend
ent upon the purchase of another article,
and it will require such corporations TO
disclose to customers the difference be-
tween cost price and selling price, or
limit the profit that can be legally charged.
as the rate of interest is now limited.
''It will also endeavor to create in the
several States trade commissions with
powers as ample as those of the Federal
Trade Commission, and to enact laws
authorizing each local community TO
