Judges Opinion.

These include the justices who
are commonly regarded as more
sympathetic to liberal movements
and to an elastic construction OF the
Constitution. The dissenting JUS
tices were the Chief Justice, Mr.
White. together with McKenna, Van
Devanter and McReynolds. Justice
McKennR wrote the dissent.
With due regard to the danger of
parapharsing an opinion, il may be
said that in essence Justice Holmes
declared that Congress or a legisla-
ture has a right to be the Judge as
to whether public conditions con-
stitute an emergency. and that Con-
gress or a legislature, having as
serted that there is an emergency
and having passed a statute &C.
signed to remedy the emergency,
then the Supreme Court has no
right to overrule the legislative
decree.
The objections to the law were OBJ
viously that it is in conflict with
those articles of the Constitution
which forbid the taking OF private
property without due process of law
and which forbid legislators to pass
any laws ImpairinG the validity Of
contracts. On these points one law
yer in high position has said that
the present decision cuts a larger
slice out of the Constitution than
any other single decision ever made.
However, the most important crit
icism Of the decision that Is pos
sible Is obviously that which comes
from a member of the Supreme

United States as Arbiter.


United States arbitrate and the sub
liminal suggestion in Mr.. Hughes
reply. that America was ready un-
der certain circumstances to medi-
ate, left the French, IL not cold. far
from impressed. II the United
States should mediate, should de-
eide that Germany could only pay
$4,000. .000, ,000,. instead of S2l,000,-
100000, would the United States,
having reduced the sum, agree to
heip to collect the reduced total
This was the first French inquiry,
to whtoh the obvious answer was
that the United States would not.
But there Is a second inquiry,
bound to be made before long, ii
the possibility of American media
tlon recurs: Europe owes America
some $1,000, 000, ,0GC in loans, which
viii amount 20 $4,000, ,OOO,0 he
fore any payment begins. The Unit
ed states has indicated that II will
not cancel these allied loans. But
the chief source, the basic security
Tor the loans is the German repara-
uons account. Suppose we should.
as mediators fix the sum of
reparations which Germany could
pay at $4,000, 900. 900. from which
would be deducted what Germany
has already paid, namely $1,000
100000, as round sum. and this
slS,o00.oo0,000 was the favorite
hgurc OF our exports at Paris, would
not all Europe at once conclude that
we were only interested in seeing
that Germany paid our creditors
just enough to enable them to dis
charge their obligations to US?
And IL the United States insisted
that Germany should be treated
gently and generously, that her ca
pacity for payment should be grave
ly considered. corld the United
States consistently display toward
her recent allies of the war a more
exacting spirit than she permitted
them to show toward Germany, re-
Gently the common enemy? Mt
enough attention has been paiG In
this country to the circumstances of
our own loans to Europe. The
larger the reduction in the sum to-
tai Of German reparations, provided
the final figure does not falr below
the sum Of our loans the better be-
comes our security for our loans
Thus in reality, we are not a disin-
terested. but the most interested
party in the whole German repara-
tions discussion, because we have n
larger sum at stake than anyone
else.
VIII Only Pay Under Pressure.
The difficulty with any possible
compromise lies in the seif-evident
fact that any sum which Is within
the limits of even remote PROBABLE
ity. say even the fifteen billions OF
the conservative American experts.
