Not even Democratic leaders have
attempted to explain how share-the-
wealth schemes which drive capital
to cover will attain what is sup
posed to be the national goal-re-
employment.

Not much is being said openly but
there is plenty of red-hot maneuver-
ing by members of Congress to get
a major modification of the ruling
that limits work-relief expenditures
to approximately $1,1OO a man per
year, including cost of materials. It
developed that this meant no major
highway construction, despite blue
prints already waiting. Delegations
from home began to roll in, and Mr..
Roosevelt heard that Mr.. Hopkins
once more had upset the soup. The
question still remains whether new
leat-raking and park Identification
projects will get all the money and
leave the jobless still jobless, while
those with Jobs pay the bill.
Among the interesting documents
called to the attention of Congress
his week was a statement from
-OOley's famous principles of Con-
Law" The portion which
attracted attention reads:
Legislators have their authority /
measured by the Constitution; they
ire chosen to do what it permits
md nothing more, and they take sol
mn oath TO obey and support it.
When they disregard its provisions,
hey usuTp authority, abuse their
rust, and violate the promise they
ave confirmed by oath. To pass an
ct when they are in doubt whether
does violate the Constitution, is to
reat as of no force the most i'm
erative obligations any person can
ssume."

Davis. Nearly every section OF the
country has sooner or later found
an interpreter. In this book Mr.
Davis does for the hitherto un-
chonicled areas Of Oregon what
Mark Twain did for the Mississip-
pi country.
Mr.. Davis tells the story Of the
boy Clay, forced by circumstance
and the restless eager spirit Of the
girl Luce to migrate from the
hop-fields to the coast and from
the coast to homestead land in
eastern Oregon.
Around the lives Of these two
Luce who has run wild because
she wanted to and Clay because he
had to-Mr. Davis has built an
epic Of the Oregon country during
the homestead period in the early
nineteen hundreds. He brings to
life the hardships of the coast set
tiers, the adventures of the wagon
trains, the nomadic lives of the In
dians and the hop-pickers, the
narrow stability and routine OF
the farmer.
CONDORCET AND THE RISE
OF LIBERALISM IN FRANCE
]. Salwyn Schapiro. Condorce,
stands out as an almost perfect ex.
preston Of that period which saw
the birth of liberalism and roman
ticism, which is dominated by the
great figures of Voltaire and Rous
seau and Diderot, and which serves
as an indispensable introduction tc
the modern world and its thought
And Condorcet represents then
all, for he alone was ''The last oi
the encyclopedias and the mos
universal" In his writings can be
traced every aspect Of the philos
ophy of his time.
With Condorcet as his centra
figure and guiding object, Mr.
Shapiro has written an amazingly
astute and helpful history Of the
thought of the whole period.
