Why an imcnsInIcntr

n FFlCIAL announcement has been made
~ from the headquarters OF the rcor-
gained WomaHs National Party that Il
resolution soon will he introduced in both
houses OF Congress cmbodying a twentieth
amendment 10 the Federal Constitutions to
do away with all legal discrimination
against women Now that woman has been
invested with the ballot. there exists no
sound reason why such determinations
should not be removed. SO long as these
determinations continue women arc lacking
in the enjoyment Of all the rights and privi-
leEes pertaining 10 sex equality. which
manifestly the nineteenth amendment in
tended 10 confer.
But why II Federal amendment 10 accom-
plish that purpose? The same object can
be attained through appropriate lcgisla, ION
by the several States abrogAtng these dis
examinations. That would appear TO be the
simpler way OF going about tho matter and
X could be done far moro cHpedtiously. 4
Federal amendment would have TO be rail-
fed by thirty-siX States in order to secure
It's adoption, and even ii il met with popular
favor, 1t would take quite n long while 10
get action on ii by the required number of
States, since under their own Constitutions
several OF them would have 10 elect new
Legislatures af;er submission OF tho amend
ment by Congress before they could vote on
IL. Moreover. if the legislatures Of tho
several states were willing 10 remove the
determinations on the merits OF the cues
ton, some Of thcm might he disposed TO
halk AZ further extension of Federal author
l'y into tho States right 10 regulate The

high or low degree to spend more govern
ment money than has been made available
or TO spend all the money available before
the end OF an appropriations year. The
executive can do more TO control this per-
haps than can Congress
II must be admitted that there are GER
tain circumstances Of government which
call Tor OUTLAWS OF money which it is not
possible either for Congress or the executive
departments ia forcscc. a rcsourceful adj
ministration always meets such cmcrgcn-
cies, knowing full well that Congress will
approve, if the facts are properly given.
TO meet possible emergencies senator
Willis. OF Ohio. who has seen service in both
branches OF Congress. proposes an appro-
priation for an emergency fund to be drawn
upon as pressing needs require. Such IL
fund is to be in the keeping OF special
board. which is authorized to go 10 the re-
lief OF Il government department or agency
nj any time such an institution may be in
dire need
This plan sounds entirely reasonable and
it might be accompanied with rigid orders
from both tho Congress and the President
10 executive chiefs prohibiting the latter
from spending dollar beyond that duly
appropriated. Those departments which
ind it impossible without public detriment
TO get along on the amount Of money which
Congress had provided outright, might have
recourse 10 the emergency board. If that
board found the demands created by extra
ordinary conditions meritorious. it could
help out Ii not the money would not be
expended
Anything that will successfully diScOur-
age the mounting deficiency appropriations
which Congress, year after year, Is called
upon TO make. seems worth trying.
