the school treasurers at the end of

"There will be no registered check

c. w. Green declared today. In ad-
dition 100000 has been advanced to
the Farm Loan department. This is
partly due to the delay Of the Chicago

LAFOLLETTE ATTACKS
U. S. SUPREME COURT

Cincinnati, Ohio, June IA. - "The
Supreme Court of the United States
is now the real ruler of the American
people," Senator Lafollette declared
in a speech before the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor convention. He adj
vocated the passage of constitution
al amendment giving congress the
right to nullify any decision of the
high tribunal re-enacting the measure
and pass it as a law. According to
the Senator the Court has assumed
powers over the public policies that
the trainers of the constitution never
intended them to have. II believe the
question of usurpation of power is the
main issue", LaFollette declared. In
his speech which was full of attacks
for decisions hostile to labor, LaFol-
lette said, II will seek the aid of the
farmers, the progressives and labor
forces for the amendment" He claim
ed that this was one of Roosevelt's
principles in 1912, the popular election
of the federal judges.
