There was a rich man who
seemed always to be in the posi-

get, his money away from him.
All rich men have something OF
this experience.
But this fellow was particular
~ haraSSed. AT every turn some
one, sued him for damages or
blackmailed him. So thoroughly
did this prey upon his mind that
he became obsessed with the fear
that when he died his body would
be stolen and held for ransom.
So, at his death it was found
that he had left instructions that
his remains be cremated and his
ashes scattered from high
bridge. His family did as he re-
ouested; and l was told that one
of his ashes flew into the eye of
a woman crossing the river on a
ferry boat. And she sued his
estate for damages.

negotiations following recognition,
Litvinov insisted that the Soviet
government had been promised Il
large cash loan from this country.
Bullitt and Roosevelt-the only
other persons present at the time
of the verbal agreement as alleged
by Litvinov-denied that.
Inasmuch as each side practically
accused the other of bearing false
witness, feeling grew strained.
The behind-the-door explanation
among American diplomats is that
Russia, soon after recognition, be.

poets of war with Japan and Sc

PLAN OF u. S. FATHERS CONFRONT>
US ANEW
CRv BRUCE CATION


While the specialists down at Washing
ton grope about among the wreckage OF
the NRA to see if any of the pieces can DC
patched up and used again, the rest OF US
might properly take time out to mediate
over the underlying issue which the U. >.
Supreme Courts decision brings into prom
inence.
That issue is nothing less than the ques-
ton, How far can the original American
attitude toward the functions of the cen
trail government be preserved in the face
of modern conditions?
The confusion of thought which resulted
in erection of an NRA framework so COM
plete unconstitutional that the court was
unanimous in knocking it down comes
straight from the fact that we tend to look
on the federal government in light en-
tirely different from that in which its toun-
ders viewed it,
The men who founded the American
government represented many schools of
thought, but they were close to agreement
on one point: they distrusted a strong cen
trail government as an enemy of democ-
racy. ""
Their first attemnt to found a govern
meat&lefh the sseVea,,' states almost indie
pendei TIE art les of confederation
seere' 800 locSe.nH took only a few years
y OF experience to prove that tighter union
was necessary; but even when the existing
constitution was framed the trainers took
pains to limit the powers of the federal
government, and to reserve all possible
rights to the states.
. Since then the whole structure OF society
has changed. In place of predomlnantly
agricultural nation, in which eacn COM
munity was largely self-sufflclent, we got
a tremendously complex industrial nation
with commercial and financial ties that
made every section dependent on all the
others.
In the face of that change, there arose
feeling that many problems could be ham
died properly only by the national govern
ment. We long ago discovered, for in
stance. that railroad regulation would fail
if left to the states. We seem to be moving
toward similar attitude in regard to pub
lie utilities.
In the NRA decision, the supreme court
simply reminded us that we have carried
this tendency altogether too far.
For while one section of public thought
tends to rely more and more on Washing
ton to provide the reforms and the super
vision which a complex twentieth century
society needs, the fact remains that our
basic law is founded on the belief that the
central government should do as little of
that kind of work as possible.
The problem of the moment, then, is to
think the whole matter through with ex-
IRENE care, determine just how closely we
wish to cling to this original theory, find
out exactly where modern conditions make
necessary a revision of it, and then formu.
late our future policies on logical and
enduring basis.
