Necessary Amendments

Both the House and Senate have taken steps to
amend the constitution advancing the date of in
auguration cf President and Vice President from,
March to January and t. convene congress two
months instead Of thirteen months after it's selcc-
ton. There is every evidence that such amend
ment will be approved. Action of this kind would
make congress responsive to public opinion pre-
vail:ng at the time Of election. The short session
would be abolished and the lame ducks" could not
block legislation through filibuster and other de.
lays.
An important provision of proposed amend
ment would end the uncertainty Of presidential Sc
lection in the event candidate receives ma
jority Of the electoral vote. Many supporters of
La Toilette at the recent presidential election
openly urged support for the Wisconsin solon on
the grounds that by chance the selection Of a
president would be thrown into congress.
The proposed amendment provides that if the
house of representatives has not chosen President
whenever the right Ct choice devolves upon them
before the time fixed for the beginning of his term
then the Vice President chosen for the term
shall act President until the house Of represent
atives chooses President.
The amendement also provides that congress shall
designate by law what officer shall act President
in the event Nice-President has not been chosen
House resolution provides that if the President
elect dies before Inauguration, the Vice Presiden!
shall become President.
1t is expected that some form of amendment Gov
ering these various issues will be submitted to tho
states for ratification before the present session
adjourns
In these days Of rapid transportation, it is entire
lv feasible to- canvass the votes and assemble cen
gress two months after its election. The voter
their wishes carried into effec
much than is possible under the presen
,ro,s lons of law.

The American home is source Of our present

When the home loses it's influence, the nation is
doomed.
When fail to glorify the home, we then take
the downward path
The home should be given its due reverence
Within its sacred precincts find the founda-
ton of everything that leads to worthwhile
achievements
Therefore, let us cxalt and sanctify the home!
It satisfies the deep-seated yearning that comes
to every human soul. 1t brings peace, content and
happiness.
Gold help those who have been denied the cx-
allied privilege of home making!
They to be pitied! And often they are the
victims of misguided enthusiasts who have failed to
grasp the fundamental principles of the great truths
of life.
To possess something that is worth more than
life itself should indeed be considered an inspiring
privilege.
And where is there mother or father who will
not admit that he loves any one or all Of his chill
dren more than life itself?
When emergency arises wherein parent can
save loved one by sacrificing his own lifc de-
cison is quickly made in favor of his progeny.

The hard coal strike is over, virtually. There
have been several months of dleness and the result
has been-resumption Of work under practically the

times? Did the owners win--seeng their plants
