judges undoubtedly made the best
argument on the constitution. They
had simply to point out that the con-
stitution provides that you cannot take
life, liberty or property without due
process of law, and that property can
not be taken even for public use
without compensation. This act, in
effect. took mans property out OF his
hands for private use without due
process of law.
The justices who upheld the law
took their stand chiefly on two
ground. In the first place they said:
This is an emergency measure. OF
course, you can justify nearly any
thing on that ground after a fashion.
| The war had created a rent emergency
all over the country. and national
rent commission would have been the
logical thing. 1t had created an equal
| ly grave emergency with regard to
food, clothing, and every other neces-
sity of life. Why not emergency price
fixing commissions to regulate the
distribution of all these things?
/ In the second place the justices held
that if a man can be prohibited by
law from building house above a
certain height on his property. there
is no reason why he should not be
prohibited from charging more than
a certain rent. If he cannot raise
the roof too high, why let him raise
the rent too high? The analogy is
more ingenious than sound. The rights
involved are altogether different. One
thing which our constitution makes
clear above all others is that the mer
who wrote it intended that private
property should be forever sacred in
the United States. They meant that 9
man should have the right to do What
he pleased with his own possessions
and that he should be allowed to sell
|, them and rent them for as much as
he could get. If the tenant didn't like
it, let him go somewhere else. George
Washington himself was landlord or
!, a large scale. He charged as much as
he could get and made the tenant pay
it. If he could hear of this rent com

name, he would kick the lid of his
coffin.
But what, after all, is constitution
among emergencies? Why worry about
a constitution which contains both
Patrick Henrys bill of rights and Mr..
Wheeler's famous eighteenth amend
ment? That is the practical question.
never stated, which lies back of many
laws. The enemies of the rent law
call it paternalism and state social
ism. 1t is. 1t is just as paternalistie
as the corn laws of the Gracci were
1t is just as much state socialism as a
municipal dining hall would be, and as
our free lunches for school children
| are. Nevertheless, it is 100 per cent
American, because it is a practical
makeshift with which to meet ar
emergency. 1t is by makeshifts anc
compromises that We keep the creak

Finally, after the war was over,
when the emergency in housing was

CIVILIZATION FAILS
WITHOUT CHRIST, RAE

The true danger to the United
States today is contempt of the law,
declared Rev j. J. Rae, addressing
members of the First Presbyterian
church congrega ton Sunday morning.
Rev. Rae laid emphasis on the viola
ton of the eighteenth amendment.
The question today is not whether
or not we can purchase liquor in this
or that city, but whether we will obey
the constitution and remain loyal TO
the flag" he said.
The civilization of Greece failed be-
cause of lack of Christianity, and
civilization of today will fail if that
lack is not remedied, according TO the
speaker. People are farther away
from God than ever before" he said
Everywhere men are discussing pres
ent day problems"
