BLOCKING THE PRESIDENT

Less than a year ago Herbert
Hoover was elected President of the
United States by the most over
whelming majority ever given a
chief executive in hotly contested
election. During the campaign Mr..
Hoover openly proclaimed his poll
cies and his program. Along with
Mr.. Hoover his program was en-
dorsed. 1t was national popular
referendum of the most impressive
sort. In view of the fact that in
all congressional elections local per-
sonalities and issues are involved,
it was the only clear-cut national
decision as to what the people want
ed in the way of policies and leader
ship during the next four years.
Curiously enough, while this is es-
sentially a nation where the rule of
the majority is supposed to prevail,
many American political leaders who
loudly profess their fealty to that
principle, are boisterously busy in
trying to make hash" of the Hoover
program. They pride themselves in
any defeat" they can inflict upon
the President; any recommendation
they can disregard; any purpose
they can obstruct. Usual respect for
majority opinion, for popular gov
ernment, would seem to dictate that
the people having decided in favor
of certain policies and chief execu-
tive to lead in getting them into ex
