NULLIFICATIeN IN A NEW FORM

Yesterday Washington dispatches stated that IN
the Supreme Court of the United States the Depart
ment of Justice had set up as defence against the
effort of the state of Ohio to nulfy her rat1catlon
of the prohibition amendment to tie constitution OF
the United States the postulate that the federal
fundamental law can be amended only IN the man.
ner provided in the constitution ITSELF and that any
action by any state on any proposed amendment must
be taken in accordance with the plain provision OF
the constitution That provision that state acts
in such cases by its legislature by representative
convention duly called
In the case at bar the state of Ohio had ratified
eighteenth amendment by and through its legsla-
ture as provided by the constitution. Ohio was the
thirty-sxth state to ratify. That all that was
necessary, Ratification certified to the State
Department at Washington in due form, and the
amendment proclaimed as part of the constitution
of the United States.
But the opposing interests thought they per-
ceived in the newly adopted referendum all op-
portunity to undo ratification by putting is up to
the people, which was done. The people voted to
annul ratification by the legislature.
The State Dcnartment, Congress and the De-
partmenC of Justice paid attention to the al
legged withdrawal of ratification by Ohio. But en-
force1nent of the amendment with appropriate leg
slation and it's application At that Ohio takes the
matter into the courts
AS defence the Department of Justice sets up
that the constitution of the United States recognizes
nowhere any direct action by the people upon con-
stitutional amendment. The defence is valid. 1t will
hold. 81 - II. 5. .4.
And behind the defence set up lies yet another:
When state has ratified an amendment it cannot
withdraw, either through legislative action of by
convention. The Civil War determined that ques7
ton with regard to the constitution itself 1t settled
that state could secede Virginia and other states
called representative conventions, which passed
ordinances of secession Those ordinances were null
lifted by the force of arms.
Now, then, the result of the Civil War is just as
applicable to constitutional amendment to the
constitution itself. What state cannot do with the
main instrument is cannot do with "codocil' to
make new use of familiar word. Not even should
representative convention or legislature attempt
it. While "The Oasis" cannot cite case it has a
vague recollection that one states tried to
annul the amendment granting negro suffrage, and
were beaten in the courts.
