Ohio Radical and Socialistic"i

Representative j. A. Frear of Wisconsin has replied
Old Guard leaders who have branded amendments TO the
constitution limiting the power of the supreme court
''too radical and sociastic."
The amendments. offered by Senator LaFollette pro-
vide for removal of federal judges and they would pre-
vent the supreme court from declaring laws unconsttu
tional unless all the justices concurred.
Reactionaries denouncng these measures.
Frear calls attention to the fact that they have been
in effect in Ohio for "a years.
Ohio happens to be the home state not only Of the
present president but also Of Chief Justice Taft and
numerous other administration lights who view with
alarm the progressves scheme TO curta the dctaorial
powers of the court
Not only that Frear points out, but in Ohio judges

records are subject to review by the people Of the state

WHEAT FRACTIONALLY
DOWN AT CLOSE OF
FEATURELESS TRADE
Market Unable to Make
Headway-Corn Little
Changed.

Copyright. by the San Antonio Light.
Chicago. Sept. 5.-Wheat closed fca-
turcleSS today. There was some selling
of May against purchases in Wmni-
peg. Local cash sales were 10000
bushels of wheat. $1,000 bushels OF
corn and 10000 bushels of oats.
Wheat closed Is to Il cent lower,
Corn closed Il to IL cent lower.
Oats were unchanged To is cents
lower.
Lard closed 90 to 10 cent,
lower and ribs ! to T1-2 cents lower,
The wheat market today was I'M
able to make much Roadway and trade
was smaller than in some time. This
was one reason for the irregular ac-
ton of prices.
The news was little more favor
able to the bulls. but the suspension
of business by Savers Grain Company
tended to cause traders to exercise
caution.
The Liverpool market was strong de-
spite the weakness in America yeStcr-
day. The strength there was attribu-
ted TO a semi-official cable from Russia
saying that the Soviet committee of
labor and defense had prohibited the
exports of grain this season.
There was little action TO the corn
trade. Prices were mostly easier. but
support developed after moderate de-
cline. The weekly government report
was bearish on corn.
