From the midst Of the lawmaking body Of the
United States demand for smaller out
put Of laws. Senator Moses, New Hamsphire, has
been lifting up his voice against the food of legis-
latiOn, and support for his view comes from the
federal bench. A United States judge declared
Saturday last that the courts arc threatened with
paralysis by the constant extension Of federal ju.
risdiction, especially in criminal matters, and by
the vast masses of new laws that are all the time
ment
This is to say nothing of the streams of enact
mcnts which pour from the state Legislatures The
plague Of too abundant lawmaking seems partcu
larly mcnacing when notice is taken of the way in
which it is sought to bring private conduct moro
and more under regulation by statute Senate:
Moses maintains that in addition to having too many
laws they are too badly drawn. Efforts to correct
this fault have, it is true been made in some legs-
atures and in congress- But still without
sufficient body If expert bill drafters.
In this matter English practice is superior to our
own. It is impossible to imagine an act of parlia-
n,ent containing SC. loose expression moral
turpitude."
What was meant by this term in our own act Of
congress probably not one in ten If those who
voted for it had precise idea. Yet here it is thrown
into our federal law and now forced upon federal
judges to make plain its legal efect--f they can.
Such loose lawmaking when done on . large scale.
helps to explain that too common Atate Of mind
which Kipling described when he said TINT the hzppy
60 lucky American houts the law which he himself
makes.

Part Of the farmers plight is explained on the
ground that interest and tax charges increased his
overhead about 100 per cent from 1900 to 1910 and
nearly 600 per cent between 1900 and 1920
In summing up the of the farmers diff

agricultural production, determined by domestic

That it is impossible to erect fences
in the field of art, dividing various
forms OF expression, Is undoubtedly
true. The most extreme of the mod
ernists is unavoidably child of ira
dition, the inheritor of the ages, no
matter how much he or she may deny
it. And a great deal in art today
which is made occasion for dispute
will disappear tomorrow. when 1t Is
replaced by something finer and bet
ter. Nothing could be more instruc-
tive or more interesting than to see
side by side, as In this exhibition, the
works of those who are at present
taking devious paths but to a great
extent achieving similar ends.
This exhibition, which opened last
evening with a private view and re-
ception, will continue until May 16,
and the public will be invited to voice
its opinion by voting for the award
Of a popular prize to the most ad-

that led him to take up fiction per-

Of life. Now and then the author
moves for iittle time into a consider
