LafoIIsttr lassed
 as a DeStruCtiOnist
Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler
 Aroused by LafolIette's
 Speech Before the A. F. of s L. Convention.

Atlantic City, N J.. June 16.+Callins on Senator Lafollette to lay aside the livery of the two historic political par ties and to put on the livery which he should wear, and take both the name and the uniform of destructionist" Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Co., lurnbia university. tonight replied to the Wisconsin senator's speech before the American Federation of Labor in Cin- cinnati yesterday, in which he urged d constitutional amendment for congress. siona1 veto of United States supreme court decisions.
 Speaking at the annual dinner of the New Jersey State Bar association, pr. Butler said:
 If Senator Lafo1lette wishes to make war upon our form of government, we shall provide him with all the fight he car. stomach; but let him stop boring from within and be compelled to attack America openly from without"
 Quoting that part of Senator Lafo!- lette's address in which he said the pur- pose of those who founded the govern ment was that the will of the people expressed through their duly elected rep resentatives should be sovereign Dr. Butler declared the senator's speech was ''so false, and announces a political pro gram that is so revolutionary as to de- naand a quick reply"
 Our forefathers took care to do
 omething quite different to what sena- tor Lafollette says they intended,"- he -a'd. ''They erected government of -trictly limited powers and functions. di- vided into executive, judicial and legisla- i've branches, each one of which gives effect to the public will. The power .oi Judicial review and protection is dis tinctively American and without it we should be swept hither and yon, by tho swiftly shifting tides of mere opinion
 As matter of fact. Dr. Butler as serted the legislative branch of the gov. ernment has come to be less represen. tative of public opinion than either oi the other branches.
 This is due. he said to "parochialism sectionalism and various forms of self interest and fanaticism." u-.
 Tt is far from certain" he contin ued, when congress or a state legisla ture passes a law. that that law ha4 the support of public opinion. For ex ample. no one but congress favors thu bonus. and few of them favor it sincere ly. When the congress meets the pub
