stitute proceedings to test the constitu-
tionality of the act
Representative Horace NJ. Iowner
of Michigan, one of the authors OF
the law, defended the law in speech
In the house, and put the case thus
Mr.. Towner: The question thus
raised by Massachusetts is whether
there Is constitutional sanction for
the maternity law. 1t is claimed by
the contestants that the Constitution
of the United States does not grant
power to congress to tax the people
"for the promotion of the welfare and
hygiene of maternity and infancy.
1t is true, as stated by the Massa-
chusetts attorney general, that the
national government has only limited
and enumerated powers; that such
enumerated powers are stated in arti-
Gle 1 section s of the Constitution; ;
and that all powers not thus enumer-
ated, or those necessary for carrying
into effect the powers thus granted,
are reserved to the states or the
people. 1t Is the contention OF the
proponents of this legislation that II
is clearly and fully authorized by the
first paragraph of article / section .
of the Constitution. Said paragraph
Is as follows:
"The congress shall have power to
Law and collect taxes, duties, imports
and excises to pay the debts and pro-
vide for the common defense and gen.
eral welfare of the United States.
Congress by the passage OF the ACT
in question, and the President by his
onnroyal have declared that the legis-
lation will promote the general wei

1t is truth that stitch in time

nine hundred. That is in the garden
where it is likely the last survivors
among the insect pest colonies are har-
bored in the trash, weeds, and old stalks
and vines. Invariably vast number
of these insects can be destroyed
simply by cleaning up the garden and
burning out the harboring places Of
the pests. Then to make the job still
more complete, a late plowing will

frost can get in its work. This will
not replace the spraying next season,

The decision Of the United States

the law is of nationwide Importance.

governed by bureaus. In this connec-
tion the following points made by Mr.
Towner Is his address in support OF
the constitutionallty of the act are
of nationwide interest, inasmuch as
he practically enumerates the activ-

are unconstitutional If the maternity
act is unconstitutional:
Literally hundreds of acts have been

Indeed, most, in number at least, of

for their enactment in the power

Of the general government would have
to be discontinued.
In the Treasury department we have
established the federal farm loan
board, which Is making loans to farm
ers all over the United States. This
is without any constitutional warrant,
under the attorney generals opinion.
