ATTEMPT AT POWER
IS LAID TO new DEAL
Chicago Lawyer Asserts It Has
. Tried to Seize Authority Over
Economic Life.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SEA ISLAND. Ga, June Ia
charge that "the New Dealers have
attempted to seize complete govern
mental authority over the entire eco
nomic life of the Nation" was made
here yesterday by Ralph M. Shaw.
Chicago attorney. in an address to
the Georgia Bar Associations conven-
ton.
Shaw, chairman Of the Illinois di-
vision of the American Liberty
League, declared: THE New Deal Is
the enemy Of and the destroyer Of
the most precious heritage OF the
English-speaking race-the heritage
Of liberty.
1.-THE New Deal is nothing more or
less than an effort sponsored by in
experienced sentimentalists and DEM
agogues to take away from the thrifty
what the thrifty or their ancestors
have accumulated, or may accumu-
late, and to give it to others who have
not earned it, aand thus indi-
rectly to destroy the incentive for all
future accumulation. Such purpose
Is in defiance of everything that his
tory teaches and of the tenets upon
which our civilization has been
founded"

Congress was expressed by Represents

resolution directing the House
Judiciary Committee to look into that
question was introduced by Repre-
sentative Sisson, Democrat, of New
York, and although Boland did not
discuss that measure directly, the
implication was that he would favor
such a proposal.
The Nations forefathers, Boland
commended. clearly intended that the
people - through Congress - should
have absolute control OF the Govern
ment.
THE very form of the Constitution
shows that" he said First, the
Constitution drafters directed, in ar
ticle /, that there should be a Con-
greSS. And in article they included
the stipulations that there should be
President to administer the laws
enacted by Congress.
And then, almost as an after
thought, they put in article (Which
creates the Supreme Court.
That they clearly intended for Con-
gress to be supreme is shown by one
basic fact: They gave the President
power to veto an act of Congress; but
in turn they gave Congress the power
to override presidential veto.
THE idea of giving the court power
to hold unconstitutional the acts Of
Congress was discussed several times
at the constitutional convention. But
in every instance it either was voted
down or allowed to die without a vote.
The obvious implication is that the
constitutional convention did not IA

ton calling on the country to decide
whether the Federal Government or
the 40 States should have jurisdic-
ton over what he regards as social
and economic problems of national
scope:
Senator Borah, Republican, OF Idaho,
commenting on hints that constitu-
tional revision might be sought, said
Congress now has ample authority
to do all the things We ought to do
Josephus Daniels, Ambassador to
Mexico-"I believe we ought to have
constitutional convention to ex-
anime that instrument, reform 1t to
meet the conditions of 1885"
Senator Dickinson. Republican, Of
1owa-"The New Deal should follow
the Constitution and not the Consti-
tuition the New Deal"
Secretary Wallace-"It is a question
whether the Federal Government can
use its powers TO correct grave social
and economic injusticeS."
Senator Fletcher. Democrat of Flor
ida-"There has been enough tam
pering with the Constitution"
Voter Held Secondary.
Representative Boland, Democrat, of
Pennsylvania. expressing doubt as to
the power of the Supreme Court to
void acts of Congress- said the ConSti-

direct power over the Supreme Court"
Senator Clark, Democrat, Of Mis-
souri-"I had assumed the question
of Federal and State Governments
had been settled 100 years"
Senator Vanderberg. Republican, of
Michigan-"I don't think President
Roosevelt has any thought of emulat-

his utterance, as I have heard it. is
exactly what these men would say
about the American picture If they
were called upon to diagnose it."
Senator Pope. Democrat, of Idaho
"The public welfare comes first: if the
Constitution gets in the way, it must
yield
McNary Urges Voluntary Action.
Senator McNary, Republican, Of
Oregon-"I don't take his gloomy
aspect. OF course, the Supreme Court
decision has defined the limitation in
which Congress can work, but with
those limits structure voluntary in
character can be erected that will be
very helpful to industry and labor.
This should be done at once"
Representative OConnOr, Democrat,
of New York-"The course for Con-
gress is to enact law extending N R. A.
for interstate businesses and to au-
thorize States to make compacts on
regulation of businesses within State
borders"
Jouett Shouse, president American
Liberty League-"The President has
renounced the Democratic partys ira
ditional theory of States rights
Senator Robinson. Democrat. of
Arkansas-"The President has not re-
nounced the Democratic party's theory
of States rights at all. The President
was careful to say that his utterance
was not a criticism of the Supreme
Court but was merely an effort to
make clear what the decision meant
socially and economically"
