4 n try should do to perfect a program that will
keep 1t out of war do nothing better than read
the fifth volume of Ray Stannard Bakers Life and
Letters of Woodrow Wilson," just published (Dou-
bleday, Doran; $40
This volume covers President Wilson'S activities
in 1914 and 1915, and shows how inevitably we were
drawn into the World War because had not, in
advance, drawn up any kind of neutrality program.
We began by barring loans to belligerents; but
we could not prohibit ordinary trade with them
there were neither laws nor precedent for it.
So we built up tremendous trade with the
Allies, and to save it we finally had to permit the
floating Of loans; and at last in the
without realizing it, so that declaration in the
spring of 1917 simply ratified what had long since
been inevitable.
MIR. BAKER shows Wilson fighting desperately
1v1 but unavailngly to save our neutrality The
man was not we'll served by his aide; Ambassador
Page quickly became an appanage of the British
foreign office and Mr.. Baker is severe in his stric-
lures on Col House
The one man who fought the good fight for peace
was indeed, your old friend William Jennings Bryan
He emergeS from this book truly great figure
and tragic one.
The Gle was cast Mr.. Baker declares by the end
of 1915 Wilson still worked for peace but his SYM
pathies were with the Allies.
His efforts to defend Americas neutral rights had
been checkmated. From the start, it was certain
that America would ultimately decide how the
should end by the end of 1915, things had happened
which foreshadowed a decision for the Allies

Y~HE middle class American is pretty conservative
l. person. Naturally he can not understand the
high purpose of organization like the Liberty
League when it tries to lquidae certain dissenting
groups It comes as shock to of the middle class
to learn that the Liberty League has refused to take
any action in regard to the case of Tampa work

Perhaps we are too sentimental, but some OF us
in our stodgy way we're not amused to hear that at
dinner of public utilities executives in New Jersey

by DAVID DIETZ-

TT took fish millions of years to learn to swim
Il The swift, easy grace of present-day fish
slowly developed with the passage of the ages.
The ancestors of the fish we know today were
clumsy, grotesque creatures covered with heavy
bony arnor, who crawled awkwardly about the sea
bottoms 900 years ago
These are the conclusions of Prof. Anatol Heintz
noted Norwegian paleontologist who sets forth his
studies of the ancestors of present-day fish in the
annual report of the Smithsonian Institution.
TIE points out that there four tyres of SWIM
L i ming. First, there is that of the free-swimming
fishes which depend upon powerful strokes of the
tail resulting from wave-like motion of the body
to drive them forward. The fins serve as balanc-
ing and steering organs.
Next there is the method used by marine reptiles
and diving birds which is similar to the propulsion
of rowboat, the limbs serving oars Sea turtles
and penguins this means for example
In the third style. snakelike or wavelike mo-
ton Of the entire body drives the creature through
the water The fourth type, found today only in
larval forms such as the tadpole depends upon the
tail TO perform the three functions of propulsion
balancing and steering.

SACRIFICING GOOD TRUMP CARDS

clarer must deliberately give up
one trick to gain two or more.
Today's hand employs defen-
sive sacrifice play, one very hard
to recognize, because you usually
can not see its development until
it is too late. However, here is
one that is easy to recognize.
When West opened the king of
spades against the four heart
contract and East's jack dropped,
declarer won the trick with the
ace. The ace of hearts was led
and, to the great disappointment
of declarer, West showed out, dis
carding a small spade.
Declarer then led the king of
hearts. Now what would you play
from the East hand?
If you play the four spot, you
can not stop declarer from max
ing his contract, because then he
will cash the ace and the king
of diamonds. Lead the queen of
hearts and throw East into the
lead by playing a small heart,
heart, which will force East to
lead club into dummy's ace
queen.
This will give declarer an OPP
portunity to discard his two losing
spades and 81 he can lose now is

What East must do is to play
his nine of hearts when declarer
plays the king, retaining a small

A Federal tax of l per
cent on pay rolls becomes
effective for the year 1886
and will be collected in 1887
unless the Supreme Court balks.
This tax will increase by half
per cent every three years until
it reaches per cent in 1949 and
stays there
Its proceeds will go into an "un-
employment trust fund" in the
United states treasury 1t ap-
plies to employers OF eight or
more persons, with stated ex-
emptions, such as for agricultural
workers.
When a state has an unemploy-
ment compensation law which
meets certain standards set up by
the Social Security Act, and has
been approved by the Social Sc
curity Board here, its employers
will receive a credit on the Fed
eral unemployment tax for go per
cent of the tax sum they have
paid into the state fund.
TINE idea is that no state will
Il want to see that money taken
by the Treasury when it might be
spent at home and that employers
would rather pay for compensa-
ton systems for their employees
than give their money to Wash
ington.
At the Social Security Board
they're figuring that any of those
40 states which don't act in 1886
will be just throwing away that
l per cent tax on pay rolls which
will be collected in 1887 The an
nual Federal tax is expected to
run up to $900,000,000 by 1880
Another inducement offered the
states is the provision that the
government will pay all costs of
state unemployment compensation
systems and is appropI Eating
$4,000,0O0 for such use in the fiscal
year 1886 and $49,000,000 year

The Federal tax will be collected

Hes His OlUn Authority

TT is fact that the National Labor Relations Act
Il better known the Wagner bill, was passed by
both houses of Congress and signed by the President
of the United States. Under the old dispenSation
that was enough to change measure into a law.
But John w. Davis says that doesn't go any more
What is his authority? Apparently he draws inSpira-
ton from the fact that the American Liberty
League has decided that the Wagner bill is not con-
Stitutonal and that employers may ignore it.
In other words, John w. Davis, who once ran for
the presidency of the United States, seems to say
that Congress has no legislative power and the PreSi-
dent executive power until the Supreme Court has
acted The most that Congress can do is to suggest
laws which it would like to pass to the Supreme
Court. That august body of nine take and
reject the rest in whole or in part
Likewise the President upon signing bill must
make the reservation that no action can be taken
until the high court has had its say.
Some of the friends of John W. Davis have COM
planned that Franklin Roosevelt has reduced Con-
gress to a rubber stamp But under his own theory
of constitutional government Senator or Repre-
sentative is no more than page boy moving discon
solately through the corridors.
No wonder John w. Davis didn't try too hard
when he for President If his revolutionary views
sustained there's far more power in being Lib
erty League lawyer.

"We are living under a Consti-
tuition, but the Constitution is
what the judges say it is"
Justice Owen j. Roberts, read
ing a 5-to-4 opinion, last spring
held that the Railroad Retirement
Act violated the due process and
interstate commerce clauses of the
Constitution. He was vigorously
disputed by Hughes.
Which really means that you
can write a constitutional opinion
either way on Social Security
and that the court undoubtedly
will divide on it.
Many New Deal lawyers feel
Roberts, who was once considered
an essential part of the courts
liberal majority"-which is nom
existent without him - in effect
barred himself from approving
any national social security meas
ure.
It is worth remembering that
the act can hardly be tested be-
fore 1887, when the Treasury
starts collecting taxes And ii one
of the five conservative" judges
passes from the picture in the
meantime, valuation of Social Sc
curity will be a good bet Roose-
welt wouldn't appoint a successor
who couldn't be depended or to
uphold it.
In any event, that decision is
likely to be as reaching and
important as any the court has
made to date.
