An Unconstitutional Constitution !

Just precisely what kind of freedom is provided in the
United States Constitution and who is going get that
fredom has developed into national brainstom says the
Western Worker Does it provide the freedom for ndiv
dua to acquire and possess land and factories without limit
and establish themselves scale of grandeur beyond the
widest lreams of ancient monarchs?
Undeniably it does
Does provide the freedom for the working population
to assemble organize, bargain collectively and express its
strength class both in political and economic fields?
Absolutely it does. There is no question about it.
It establishes definitely that the employer shall
have the right to exploit.
1t establishes very definitely that the working class
shall have the right to prevent him from exploiting
At the present time the employer is exercising his con-
stitutonal right to exploit to the utmost
AT the present time the working class is mobizing and
soidying its strength to put end to the exploitation
The constitution supports them both. The fight is on

The employers cooperate by attacking every real labor

LARGE BANK.
ACCOUNTS To
BE SURVEYED
BY RICHARD L. GRIDLEY

Copyright, 1885, BY United Press)
WASHINGTON, Aug. %. - The
administration plans a secret in
quiry into bank accounts of wealthy
Americans in formulating national
credit policies, the United Press
learned today.
Selected banks throughout the
country have been asked to cooper
ate in the study and to make their
records available to federal exam
liners.
Whether this proposed scrutiny
of financial activities of citizens is
a part of the administration re-
distribution of wealth and income
program could not be learned. 1t
was believed significant in some
quarters that the figures might
supply important data for the gov
ernment'S financial plans, although
one federal reserve official mini
mized the Importance of the survey.
The survey is believed the idea
of Mariner S. EocleS, federal re-
serve board governor, wealthy for
mer Utah banker. He is known to
have extremely liberal views re-
garding a more equitable diStribu-
tion of income and wealth.
The inquiry is to be conducted by
the federal reserve board. AT the
outset it is to cover the years 1928
to 1882 so as to apply to both boom
and depression years. Whether the
survey later would cover more re-
cent years could not be learned.

Federal Reserve Board Reor-

ity To Control Credit
INSURANCE FEATURE STAYS
Protection Of Depositors' Mon
ey Permanent Feature Under
New Set-Up

WASHINGTON, Aug. %. Up -
President Roosevelt today signed
the banking act of 1895, giving the
administration further broad pow
ers over the nations banking and
credit.
A group of treasury officials wit
messed the signing.
The bill re-makes the federal re-
serve board into a more powerful
unit and gives it authority to con-
troll credit through virtual power
to dictate open market operations
of the regional banks.
These operations, along with con-
troll of rediscount rates, more lib
eral lending powers and authority
to increase reserve requirements,
hand the administration most Of
the control needed either to expand
or contract business credit.
The bill also makes permanent
the administrators bank deposit
insurance program, under which
14,500 of the country's 15,600 banks
are receiving protection. All de-
posits are insured up to $4,000 out
of assessments of 1-12th per cent
made on deposits of insured banks.
The Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation, which insures the
banks, is given added authority TO
control operations of its member
banks, such as fixing the maximum
rate of interest they can pay their
depositors.
Board Reorganized
Vast administrative changes are
made in the governments banking
agencies. The federal reserve
board is effected principally.
The present federal reserve board
is to be superseded February 1,
1885, by an entirely new board
known as the board of governors
of the federal reserve system. Mem

/ upon the rights of states. In this,
the recovery program had encoun-
tered an unsurmountable obstacle
and detour had to be sought and
is being sought now.
1--WE will reach our destination,
but not so quickly as we had hoped,
despite the clamours of the group
that applauds every setback, re-
joices every time cog in the ma
chinery of recovery goes wrong,
that Sneers at congress, and calls
our national legislators rubber
stamps whenever they support the
President and haltS them as great
statesmen whenever they vote
against someone he advocates.
Explains Constitution
The constitution imposes upon
the President the direct duty of
laying before congress such recon-
mendationS as seem to him requis-
ite to the welfare of the nation.
What sort of chief magistrate would
we have if, after asking congress
to enact certain laws, he failed to
urge passage of those laws? The
constitution directs that no enact
ment shall become law until the
President signs it, or it is passed
over his veto. 1t was never con-
templated by the founders of our
government that the legislative and
executive branches should be hos
tile agencies. To the contrary, it
was planned they should cooperate
and work to the nations good"
Farley further declared tha t
there is little criticism of, or op-
position to, the Presidents policies
that is not directly attributable
either to politics or to the concern
of particular group to preserve
some undeserved advantage it has
had, and so make common cause
with the political foes of the admin
iStration."

Camp For Young
Radicals Found
Near RiUerSide

RIVERSIDE, Calf, Aug. %. W,D
County authorities today were
investigating an assertedly Commu-
nistic camp near Prado where rs
boys and girls of mixed races were
said to be enrolled.
The investigation followed a sur
prise visit to the camp by County
Health Officer Jones and Sheriff
Carl F. Rayburn, who said they
confiscated quantity of Commu-
nistic literature.
Besides reprints of the Inter
rationale" the papers contained
publications teaching the children
to take part in the "class struggle
and make war on the bosses," the
sheriff said. A copy of song
with which the camp day opened
declared that I'VE are the young
fighters whose flag is red" it was
said.
Sheriff Rayburn said the chill
dren were instructed by group
of adult teachers which included
four Negroes. Called an "anti-war"
camp, it has been operating in the
Santa Ana river brush lands for
several weeks drawing children
from Riverside, San Bernardino
and Los Angeles counties.
Those in charge said the camp
was sponsored by the international
Insurance company and other Or
ganizations, names of which they
could not remember.
Officers said they were investi-
eating report that the camp is
supported by the American Youth
Congress, in which some Riverside
churches and other organizations
are said to hold membership.
One pamphlet picked up by the
sheriff gave the bylaws of the
Young Pioneers, youth division of
the Communist party, including the
instruction that young pioneers are
always on guard against police Of
ficers and are to give them no in
formation about the Young Pho
neers' organization"

ROGERS BODY
To Be TAKEN
EAST LATER
Family To Decide Date For Re-
moval To Native State Of
Oklahoma's Famous Son
BY GEORGE ii. BEALE
Tnited Press Staff Correspondent

HOLLYWOOD, Aug. %. = Will
Rogers, having received the highest
tribute ever offered a private citi-
zen, rested today in stone vault
in Forest Lawn Memorial park,
awaiting the time when he will be
returned to Oklahoma.
That his body would be sent there
was certain, for during lifetime
the cowboy -humorist expressed such
a desire and his family gave con-
crete evidence that his wish was
a command.
This was illustrated during cere-
monies yesterday when his coffin
remained closed despite the desire
of $4,000 people, who fled past it
while it lay 10 state, and of close
friends who attended the last rites
at the Wee Kirk O. the Heather at
Forest Lawn, to have last glimpse
of the kindly face of the actor.
Rogers had requested that none
but relatives see his body after
death and that request was carried
out.
His widow, Mrs. Betty Blake
Rogers, and his children, Mary, Will
Jr., and Jim, were expected to de-
eide within the next few days when
the body will be returned to the
state where he was born and where
he started his rise to international
fame.
Mrs. Rogers Better
Mrs. Rogers, who almost collapsed
during the impressive rites for her
husband. was reported much i'm
proved today.
She needed the support of both
sons yesterday when she left the
chapel where world famous notables
heard Rogers eulogized.
Never before had there been such
a turnout of notables for a public
citizen.
The list included Charlie Chap
lin. Mary Pickford, Norma Shearer,
Will Hays, Joe E. Brown and scores
of others connected with the film
industry.
Notables outside the film world
included Postmaster General James
Farley, Amelia Earhart and Corne-
lius Vanderbilt Jr., of the Fifth
Avenue VanderbiltS.
Services were held, too, at the
Community Presbyterian church in
Beverly Hills, at the California ex-
position in San Diego and at all
major studios in Hollywood.
The studios shut down entirely
for the entire afternoon, an un-
precedented action.
