thority to the political system
in its parts or in its whole.
Everyone knows with what
logic this theory was worked
. out in the mechanism Of the
new republic. Not only were
rights reserved to the people
never to be parted with, but
rights Of great extent were re-
served to the States as q sacred
deposit to be jealousy guarded.
Even in the central govern.
ment the great depOsitarieS Of
power were made Independent
Of each other, checks on each
other; assumption Of authority,
separately responsible to the
people, that each might be a pro-
lection and not a danger to the
public liberties"
When, therefore, those Repre-.
sentatives in Congress organized
a sapping expedition to under
mine the Government of the
Constitution and give to Con-
gresS the supreme power they
are not making an issue with
antiquity. They are embracing
antiquity and preferring the
european to the American sys-
tenn Of government established
by the Constitution.
DESPOTIC AIMS
Any American citizen, what.
ever his walk in life, whatever
his state, whatever his politics,
who is tempted to overthrow by
popular referendum the Govern
ment of the Constitution and
to give to Congress that "su-
preme, irresistible, absolute,
uncontrolled authority" which
the trainers of the Constitution
refused to give to the Govern
ment as whole, or to any
one Of its parts, must be abys-
mally ignorant of the Congress
the country now has on it's
hands.
No thinking American, taking
the trouble to inform himself
concerning the personnel or per.
Torrance Of the present Con-
gress, will ever vote to scrap the
Constitution, junk the Supreme
Court and give to this or any
other Congress despotic power
over the life and liberty Of
every man, woman and child
under the flag.

Nearly all of the various and
sundry proposals to make over"
the Constitution Of the United
States recently advanced in Con-
gresS seem to have the common
purpose Of giving supreme
power to Congress.
Such proposals are contrary
to the main objective of the
Trainers of the Constitution.
What this objective was has
many times been set forth.
Seldom, however, with greater
clarity has it been defined than
by the late Henry Adams, the
American historian, who was the
son Of Charles Francis Adams
and the grandson of John
Quincy Adams.
INCONSISTENT
In one of his essays on Amer.
lean history and government,
Mr.. Adams says:

stitutiOn intended to make by
its means an issue with an.
tiquity. And they had q clear con-
ceptiOn Of the issue itself, and

and suspicion to the people of

solved her problem by a repre-

America, on the other hand,
asserted that the principle was
not true; that no such supreme
power need exist in any govern
ment; that in the American
government none such should
be allowed to exist, because alb
sOlute power in any form was
inconsistent with freedom and
that the new government

posts.
The police, lurking in a back
room, checked many transac-
lions, as the soldier boys, al.
ready badly shot with the dope
weed, came in to get their Gus.
tomary jolt from Huerta.
Huerta went to Welfare Island,
but each year the police turn
up new patches. But arrests
of the dope growers have been
negligible. Last January two
men were caught peddling mari.
juana cigarettes to soldiers on
Governors Island.
It looks somewhat like a to-
mato vine, and is known as
wild tobacco" The cigarettes
are made from both the dried
leaves and flowers. In recent
years the Mexican government
has been fighting it and has
used strenuous measures against
marijuana smoking, but it is q
tough weed and a persistent
habit.
STAFFS OF PEDDLERS
In many Central and South
American countries, it has sup.
plemented the use of locke"
made from the coca shrub.
When the latter habit has been
beaten back, they have turned
to marijuana.
The ancient Incas attributed
divine powers and all sorts OF
felicity to coca leaves, which
they rolled up and chewed. But
none except those of the highest
rank was allowed to use it. 1t
was forbidden to laborers and
soldiers.
I find many conflicting re-
ports and little definite informa-
ton about the increase or de-
crease of the drug habit in the
United States in the last few
years. Whatever the statistics,
we have been all too compla-
cent about it, and the sporadic
State and Federal drives against
the drug traffic have by no
means ended it.
West Coast friends tell me
that the same old organization
which has been peddling mar
cotics for more than twenty
years is still in existence and
is still strong and prosperous.
This organization has head
quarters in Shanghai, Vancouver,
Seattle and San Francisco.
In each city there are little
make-believe stores with a few
knick-knacks in the windows,
and these are the headquarters
of stats of peddlers, many Of
them Chinese, who work under
the guise of flower vendors. I
happen to know that as late
as five years ago this organiza-
ton was strongly intrenched
politically and successfully beat
back all assaults of the law.
It seems to this writer that,
taking all the assorted villainieS
of the world today, this drug
thing wins as something worth
getting thoroughly mad about.
Isn't it possible that these
Brooklyn marijuana patches
could be used to start some.

Working Wives

Too many young men who
contemplate marriage expect
their wives to continue to be
wage earnerS.
This thought is carried to the
point of SelfishneSs because they
realize that If their wives earn
incomes they will be Self-Sup-
porting.
Also there is the thought that
it will mean less sacrifice on
their part in supporting another
person.
Often, however, the wife is
reluctant to give up a good
position and the independent
sum of spending money she has
become accustomed to as a
Salaried person.

be made about the young couple

Byrns' political accomplish

Administration program, they
will agree, almost to a man, that
he has been a popular speaker.
The boys in the House took
the bull by the horns the other
day and bGited one Representa-
the Thomas L. BlGnton 3D.
of TEXAS, knoDn as the wGtch'

It was when they were con-
sidering a bill to appropriate
three million dollars for the

They could not hear the voice
of Blanton rise in opposition on
this occasion. His watchfulness
4. over Treasury expired that day.
3lanton, in bygone weeks,
asked that an appropriation for
the San Diego exposition be
cut from $35O,OOO to 10000.
But he tDGS strangely silent
about the 100000.
So up spoke Representative
William A. Ekwall, active Re-
publican from Washington.
He said:
"What disturbs me right now
Is where the watchdOgS of the
Treasury are. Where is Blan-

He spoke of Blanton's efforts
to reduce the San Diego appro-
priation and read from Don
Juan the lines:

He did. But every once in a

When it becomes necessary to
choose between a Republican

usually recognize the member OF

probably will apologize to the
Republican and explain the
situation.
In the cloakrooms he con.

Democrats alike. He smokes
and chats with members OF both
parties.
