breathing apparatus and include the common cold

are likely to have some disability because the hui

THE supreme court, according to theory, is body

yet this group being cheered rapturously just now
because by vote Of five to four it decided that an

that smaller intelects might have come to the same
conclusion by a wider margin.
The court was explicit in stating that its Mime

presently, the farmer can not
make enough money on the
beef which he is able to sell to
pay board for those remaining
on the hoof.
The pig farmers faced the
same problem, but sooner and
in worse form. This was due
to the fact that the pig has al
most no social conscience. Cattle
have children one at a time and.
in rare instances, twins, but
pigs spawn. The government
made an effort under Mr.. Hoov-
er's administration to do some

could not possibly be a revolution in the United
gates because the supreme court would like it..
But this surveyor Of the current scene entirely
looks the corolary question to whether any kind
of revolution would like the supreme court
It seems to me that certain romantic ictions have
been set up around the nine mature gentlemen in the
black robes It is held by some that orderly demo-
cratic processes would perish from the face of the
earth If the supreme court did not possess legisa-
tive veto. Many appear TO believe that the present
setup in the minds Of the founders from the
very beginning of the nation.
This certainly is open to argument. I venture to
say that not one-fourth of the sgners of the Con-
sttution had any conception that the court would
function as it does today Surely the Jeffersonian
group in the original states would have fought
bitterly against the document had they antci-
pated the powers which John Marshall managed to
read into the perquistes of the bench upon which he
sat.
Those who feel that the present Constitution of
the United States and the supreme court is,
stitue the only available guarantee of democratic
government and due process of law should be nudged
severely. Government in England is at least
sponsive to the popular will the structure under
which live, and fundamental human rights have
been preserved in Great Britain without benefit of
either written constitution any body analogous to
supreme court.

Democracy and the Supreme Court


I HOLD that it is quite possible to believe ardenty
in democracy and still be skeptcal of the uti-
mate usefulness of the court. And I skeptical.
The history Of that august body is not wholly a
happy one. Not always have its decisions promoted
orderly action But for the bred Scott decision We
never might have been under the necessity of fight
ing civil war; and in many other instances the
opinions of the court have tended to violent
protest and direct action rather than inspiring a
sweet reasonableness.
Mr. Dooley once said that the supreme court
follows the election returns. 1t if fails to live
up to this excellent obligation have grave fears
to whether the tribunal will continue to exist save
in a severely modified form.
Doubt to the sanctity of the court and its
opinions is by means brand-new thing in
America inspired by the violent groups of
radicals. AS stock and standard an American hero
as Colonel Theodore Roosevelt once advanced the
idea of the recall of judicial decisions. The camor
against this suggestion great that the colonel
induced to draw in his horns and never men,
ton the matter any more.

The senators unable to make any sense of
DR.. Ezekial's plan and it was decided that if the
senators couldn't understand it then the pigs GER
tainly couldn't.
Although that might not necessarily follow as
the night the day.
AS plain, practical alternative the government
went out buying up large numbers of new pigs and
Strengthening them. 1t became program of pig
prevention and ruthless and apparently improvident
as The process was, it deemed to be the onlv
course because unhappy experience had shown that
otherwise love would find way.
A similar plan of prevention was adopted as to
cotton and wheat, large acreage of which was
plowed under and paid for by the treasury.
The theory by which it is believed that a BODY
OF people who are too poor to buy pork wheat cot
ton or beef at low prices will find it easier to buv
them when they cost four times as much is beyond
the ordinary understanding and will have to he
taken on faith.
However, it can do apparent harm to try be-
cause If the citizens can't buy cheap commodities
Tor lack of anything to use for money then their
inability to buy the same stuff at higher prices will
not hurt worse.
Probably, somewhere, way back in the unrevealed
and, possibly, undeveloped intentions of the new
DEAL there is some idea of handing the citizens free
money out of the treasury to enable them to buv
things at high prices from the farmers who got
free money out of the treasury to refrain from rails
ing animal and vegetable matter so that prices
would rise to profitable level.
Then the government will undertake to tax the
farmers profits to retire some of this debt and the
farmer will squawk bloody murder and turn the ras-
Gals out at the next election.
