UNDERMINING THE NATIONS SAFETY

That fifty three nominees for Congress Tn the coming election are in favor of an amend ment to the Constitution giving Congress the power to override and nullify decisions of the United States Supreme Court, IS the clam made bv the National Security League. Whether or not these figures are authentic is not at this moment important. Even though they are authentic, they mean nothing so far as their immediate effect is concerned. There are always a certain number of freak legsla- tionists running loose in every campaign willing to subscribe to freak proposals If by so doing they can garner few more votes Subscribing in such cases is cheap, since the subscription has no chance of ever being col lected
 But the proposal to give Congress the power to override the decisions of the United States Supreme Court, and to prevent that court from declaring laws passed by Congress as unconstitutional, is one which has already been given too much voice. Approved by the American Federation of Labor, the proposal to put through such an amendment is symp tom of a serious condition of the public mind It is one which should be condemned by every American to whom American ideals and llber- ties are sacred.
 The united StateS supreme COuiI IS lhe bulwark of American institutions. The one branch of government free from demagoguery and the machinations of politics, it is the safeguard of the rights of the people and the ideals for which the Constitution was devised Calling to it's service men of the highest intel lectual and legal capacity and of unsuled principles, it is the one institution upon which the sanity and security of the nation can de- pend. Let it once become subject to the med dlesome, self-seeking and demagoguic inter- ference of Congress- let Law be open to the disrespectful and flouting machinatons of politicians, and the nation will be face to face with disaster. Tampering with the United States Constitution has become too common a habit. It is time to realize that if Democ- racy is to be safe for the world, the Consti- tuition upon which the worlds greatest de- mocracy is founded must be above the med ding of petty hands In every commonwealth there must be court of last resort That courts verdict must be final. If Law is to prevail, this must be true. And any effort to question this principle is anarchc and dangerous. It should not be tolerated.

MY PERFUMED LOVE

In little Eastern village, On drear October night, A livery stable keeper met maid,
 Whose troth he'd plight; Now, he was tall and handsome
 In my thinking way,
 And she--Oh, my! was quite a queen
 She was so slim, yet gay. The livery stable keeper,
 AS he asked her for her hand Attempted to embrace her
 But for this she would not stand; Oh, why upon this manly breast
 Will you not lay your head She looked into his placid face, And this is what she said My love works in a green house.
 And there always is a smell Of violets and geraniums Upon his coat lapel"
 Now mind, I do not blame you, Nor do I make complaint; But green house has a fragrance
 That a livery stable ain't Ganna Walska, temperamental Pol ish grand opera singer, has taken liar old F. Mccormick, Chicago multimil- | T judging by her past matrimonial ven lures and her stage conduct, Harold is

 When a girl is caught under the mistletoe, she always pretends that she didn't know it was there and ex- poets you to believe her.
 A young man called on a certain manufacturer in his workshop and the man of metals and machinery picked up powerful magnet and said: That magnet will draw three pounds of iron from a distance of two feet. There is no natural object on the face of the earth that has more power" 1 dunno about that" said the young countryman thoughtfully q know natural object, wrapped in muslin and frills, that is drawing me every Sunday evening over three miles of ploughed fields.'

Studebaker ShOlCs
Strong At Opening

New York, May 1.-After period
OF heayiness at the start of trad.
Ing. Studebaker turned strong re.
covering 1h points from the early
low on the New York Stock Ex-
change today. Studebaker's first
quarter earnings OF sG.49 a share on
the common established new rec
ord. The feature OF the showing
lies In the fact that while 26,G50
cars were produced only 22,S0l were
actually sold, the rest being held
over for delivery this quarter, In
view OF the fact that the company
plans to build 10000 cars In the cur
rent quarter, It appears likely the
actual sales will equal that number
because Of the 5000 vehicles carried
over from the first quarter. On this
basis, Studebaker should show earn
ings Of approximately $3.50 share
for the June quarter, making total
OF SIS In six months.
In other words, by the end of the
first half Of this year the full 81
annual common dividend will have
been earned and there should re-
main something like sS share from
which directors may pay an extra
cash dividend at the July meeting.

by FRED G. JOHNSON.

united Press Staff Correspondent.)
indianapolis. May Indiana VIII
20 to the polls tomorrow to render
its verdict on President IIardlngs
administration.
The nation will watch while the
Hoosier voters register on the presi-
dents policies.
The vote will be taken In the
senatorial and congres(ion pri-
mary election In which Senator
Harry S. New. one of Harding's
chosen friends, is seeking re-nomi'
nation against Albert J. Beycridge'
former senator and progressive
leader. All except one of the thir-
teen representatives in congress
from Indiana are also seeking re-
turn to Washington.
Senator New stands squarely up
on the record of President Harding
and that of the republican congress
in which he has had an important
part. directing administration afiairs'
Beveridge said he will support
Harding. But Beveridge has "A few
policies OF his own and the ola
guard fears he would wreck con-
gress If elected. like the bull wreck
ed the China shops. He wants the
tax laws revised to remove the Dur-
dens which he says are hinderlng
progress of business and he also
favors repeal OF the Adamson ana
Sherman laws, reduction of railroad
rates and a soldier bonus.
The result is question OF dif-
ference in the strength of the or
.eanization machinery which is back
ing New and the strong personal ap-
neal which Beveridge made direct
TO the voters. 1t is a difficult mat
ter to defeat the machine in Indiana,
but Beveridge, talking straight from
the shoulder, took final swing
through Indiana during the last week
and claims to have assured victory.
He says he will carry the rural sec
tions, the former progressives ana
the women's vote. New claims some
of these factors and says he will
carry the thickly populated heavy
voting centers.
