{ Mr. GomperE Is entirely right in
saying that there is a power over and

wrong in placing Congress as such a
power, though night in 50 placing the
people. Congress Is a coordinate,
not a superior power The people are
supreme, and. II the court finds an act
Of Congress unconstitutional, the
people can change the Constitution.
They have done il in the past and
they can DO so in the future. But Mr..
Gomperx is assuming good deal
when he assumes that the people will
overthrow the decision Of the
Supreme Court holding that labor

capital, but the rights Of the country
as a whole. II Mr.. Gompers finds the

No reason is given except possibly
that no adequate program Of road inn

- fault which the much maligned
Patrol Committee sought to remedy
in about the only part Of its highway
bill which has not since been adopted.
The present highway department has
made public a tentative program for
n system Of trunk lines and still more
publicity should be given il, so that
public sentiment may be formed as to
the desirability Of working forward to
the establishment Of such a system.
Probably hard surfaced roads will
not be practicable on all the proposed

determine such matters.
