Proposed Air Mail Measure
Causes Revolt in Senate
By James T. Williams, Jr.

Justice delayed is Justice de-

Against the tyrannical pro
poSal that Congress ratify the
un-American formula by which
all domestic air mail contracts
were cancelled without due
process Of law a revolt in the
Senate has set in under the
leadership Of Democratic Sen
ators. This is the best of good
news for all Americans who
still believe that Government
is protection" protection for
every citizen in his rights as q
citizen.
No citizen would be secure in
his rights If the legislative pro-
poSalS Of Senator McKellar of
Tennessee and Senator Black
Of Alabama should prevail. They
are pressing for enactment a
bill that would bar from bid
ding for any new air mail con-
tract any holder Of a cancelled
contract who dared to defend
his innocence in a court of law
against the allegations Of Sen
atoF McKellar and Senator
Black and Postmaster General
Farley that all such contracts
were obtained by collusion and
fraud.

These contracts were can
celled more than q month ago
by Postmaster General Farley.
A recent witness before Sen
ator McKellar's committee di-
rected the committees atten-
ton to the provisions Of the
Federal Constitution which
prohibit Congress from passing
Bills Of Attainder."
This witness, representing one
Of the companies whose con-
tracts were cancelled without
q hearing, cited several cases
decided by the Supreme Court
Of the United States which de-
fined a ''Bill Of Attainder" as
a legislative act that inflicts
punishment without judicial
trial.
One Of the decisions by the
Supreme Court Of the United
States cited to show the un-
conStitutionality of the Nc
Kellar-Black bill is that Of
Cummings VS.. the State Of
Missouri a Wall. 27D.
This case involved the con-
Stitutionality Of an act Of the
state Of Missouri adopted in
1S75-at the close Of the Civil
War. This act provided that
in an election no person
should be deemed q qualified
voter ''who has ever been in
armed hostility to the United
States or to the lawful au-
thorities thereof or to the
government Of this State"
This statute further pro-

It must have been failure to realize the recovery
aspects of the restoration movement which prompted so
many members Of the House and Senate to delay for such
long period the enactment of the Independent Offices
Appropriation Bill with it's McCarran amendment.
Certainly with that realization in mind these members
of the Congress would dislike exceedingly to take the
responsibility for the delay.
NO MEMBER OF CONGRESS WOULD WANT TO
PLACE HIMSELF IN THE POSITION OF DELAY

MOVEMENT WHICH WAS CONTRARY TO THE
EXPRESSED WILL OF THE GOVERNMENT

ing from such disabilities should
be forever barred from acting
as a professor or teacher in
any educational institution or
in any common or other
school, that no such person
should ever be permitted to
hold property in trust for the
use of any church, religious
society, or congregation, and
that an oath must be required
Of such person before he or
she would again be permitted

In September, 1865, the Rev
erend Mr.. Cummings, a priest
Of the Roman Catholic Church,
was indicted and convicted in
the Circuit Court of Pike county
Mo-, "of the crime of teaching
and preaching in that month,
as q priest and minister Of that
religious denomination, without
having first taken the oath pre-
scribed by the Constitution of
the State" He was sentenced
to a fine Of $500 and to impris-
onment until the fine was paid.
His conviction was sustained by
the Supreme Court of the State.
Tyrannical
When this celebrated case was
appealed to the Supreme Court
of the United States, it reversed
the finding Of the Supreme Court
Of Missouri. Justice Field deliv-
cred the opinion and held that
the law in question was in the
nature Of q Bill Of Attainder or
ex post facto law. Speaking for
the great tribunal, Justice Field
in that decision, which pro-
tected the Rev. Mr.. Cum.
mings in his constitutional
rights, thus defined a Bill Of At
tainder, against which the pro-
hibition in the Federal Constitu-
ton is directed:
"a Bill of AttGinder is a leg

HcanS in the Senate who have

FIRSTPIGEONO OFFSPRING

what the matter was, without
opening my eyes. Everything
being equal, I would much
rather not open my eyes

couldn't seem to get the right
angle on the situation without
taking at least one peek. This
I did, and what do you think I
saw? Oh, well, I guess you al
ready know what it was, for,
like a fool, 7 gave it away In
the beginning Of my letter when
I told you I had seen the first
pigeon of spring. I could bite
my tongue off.
Anyway, there was a big bull
pigean walking about on the win
dow ledge and giving me an oc-
casional leer with its red eyes,
all the while rumbling in a deep,
bass voice and giving every indi-
cation Of immediate attack.
Quick as a wink, I shut my eyes
and lay still. There Is no love
wasted between pigeons and me,
and I wanted to pass the matter
off as quietly as possible.
I passed it off so quietly that
I didn't get around to opening
my eyes again, until around
noon. and, by then, the pigeon

Local Relief Workers
Repeat Strike Threat

A window In the new state capitol
building was smashed by federal relief
workers who carried out demonstra-

jects In Burleigh county, threaten to
strike unless they are given the maxi

week.
As they left the office Of E. A. Will
son, relief administrator for North
Dakota, one of the relief workers
picked up q cuspidor and hurled 1t
through window at the entrance of
the building.
There were no other disorders after
breaking Of the window. A panel in
the huge front window Of the build
ing was broken. after which the men,
led by B. J. Drennen Of Bismarck,
booed the relief administration as
they stood outside the statehouse.
There were over 100 men In the group.
