A Word for Con gress

CONSIDERING the respective powers of the executive
~ legislative and judicial branches of government
the judicial branch is farhest removed from the influence
of the people. Appointed during good behavior which
practically for life, federal judges independent
of the other branches of and of the people
The people get at the president every four years
but they have little to say about who shall be president
being limited ordinarily to choice between two cand-
dates nominated by party organizations.
But the people get at the entire membership Of the
house and onehd of the senate every two years That
that the legislative branch is the most easily pun
shed for Misrepresentation
With the judicial branch almost wholly reactionary and
undeocratc and presidents too much influenced by party
organizations and big campaign contributors the people
must depend largely upon the legislative branch for pro-
lection.
This may be why there is so much propa-
ganda hostile to congress in the organs of reaction 1t
quite evident that effort is being made subordinate
the legislative to the executive branch of government by
threatening with defeat members of congress who do not
blindly obey the orders of the president
Congress is not always right But neither is the pres
dent-no matter who he is Congress makes mistakes
But do presidents. And it would be unwse to permit
either the executive the judicial branch to encroach
farther the rights Of the legislative. The judicial
branch has encroached already to the point of danger

~ death ray" which, swung like a searchlght, would
start fires, explode ammunition and kill enemy soldiers
miles away. It's not a claim. You recall the Fray
so widely discussed before the world war.
1t is frequently suggested that science may make war
deadly and destructive that no nation would dare start
fighting. War would become mutual suicide It's not
impossible But first nations would have to agree to
have secrets in their offices otherwise thered be
