A TIME OF REAL DANGER.

Many men whose judgment is calm
and not carried away by passion or
feeling have come to the conclusion
that the people Of the United States ere
facing one of the most critical times in
the history Of the nation
The supreme court has almost entire
ly destroyed the New Deal by declaring
many of its legislative acts unconstitu-
tional, and it is therefore foregone
conclusion that mighty attempt will
be made to amend the constitution so
as to make legal and make possible the
plans of the New Dealers Already
scores of resolutions have been intro
duced into congress proposing amend
ments that would change the most
fundamental features of our govern
ment.
AS this newspaper has stated before,
there is no need to become excited over
a proposal to amend the constitution.
Many such amendments have been
adopted and many more will undoubt-
eddy receive public favor in the years
to come. But there always is one
highly important aspect in every pro-.
posal to amend the basic law of the
nation. The nature OF the amendment
proposed is of supreme importance.
Within that statement lies the danger
that now threatens the nation. Because
of the hard times through which the
nation has passed and backed by much
loose thinking that is prevalent today,
attempts will be made to change
radically the very nature of our govern
ment Resolutions have already been
placed before congress which would
take away the fundamental liberties for
which our forefathers fought and died

THIS is A GOOD COUNTRY"

Sometimes the malcontents make SO
much noise we forget about the people
who are the thinking, frugal, working
backbone of the country. Then some
! thing happens to wake us up, like this
letter from a Utah farmer:
I'VE are living in very interesting
| time. l have never seen so much un-
rest. Anything goes at this time just so
a certain element can get something
for nothing. We are ruled by a class
that doesn't know hoe from a shovel

long back as / can remember, have
heard the old story that the rich are
getting richer and the poor are getting
poorer.

dreadful thing should ever take place
liberty will be gone in America ane
the citizens thereof will be ruled &C.
cording to the whim of dictator ir
Washington and by huge bureaucracy
Iradiating out over the country.
One of the most sweeping of these
resolutions is House Joint Resolution
1879, introduced by Congressman Reu-
ben T. Wood, democrat of Missouri
This resolution would empower con-
gress to do the following:
ITO regulate business, industry, fl
nance, banking. insurance, transporta-
ton. agriculture, manufacturing and
production of national resources, hours
wages, terms of condition of labor
production and prices Of commodities
giving supremacy TO acts of congress
over state laws; authorizing the federal
government to establish annuites, re-
tirement funds, worknen's compensa-
ton, occupational disease funds and
systems Of insurance Of all kinds;
authorizing congress to delegate its
legislative power to the president, OF
to such agencies rs he may select;
making laws of congress supreme over
states; creating geographical areas for
federal operation, taxation, ETC., of sew
eral states, such without apportion-
ment among the states; empowering
congress to enforce, extend, Gquidate
adopt, reduce, discharge or cancel liens
claims, demands, debts, judgments, or
obligations
Another resolution introduced by
Congressman Knute Hill, democrat Of
Washington, would withdraw the right
of the supreme and inferior courts
jurisdiction to declare any act of con-
gress unconstitutional"
With an ambitious and INSCRIPTIONS
man in the presidential office, what
couldn't he do if given the power
to make laws or to delegate that power
to the men of his choosing? The amend
ment proposes that very thing. What
would become of the liberties Of the
people If faced by president similar
to Mussolini or Hitler, AND to whom
all legislative power had been given?
Under such sweeping proposals as
these enumerated here the citizens OF
the United States would be subject tc
an absolute and all-powerful dictator
ship and personal liberty would be a
thing of the past.
That is the critical danger that now
faces the people of the United States
Many dangerous amendments to the
constitution will be proposed The
people should take extreme care that
in time of evaporation and passion
they do not permit such measures te
be adopted, to the eternal destruction

Some use their foot brake to keep their
cars from rolling backward, put their engine
in low gear and accelerate slowly with the
hand throttle, gradually engaging their
clutch and releasing the brake at the same
time. Other good drivers do exactly the same
thing, only they use the hand brake and the
foot accelerator. But both groups tell us 1t

Many drivers say that we should 60 down a hill

words, II it's steep enough would have to 60 up

As matter of fact, there are several conditions
peculiar to driving in very steep hills mountains
especially If the altitude is high. For instance car
that develops 100 horsepower at sea-leve has only
81 horsepower at altitude OF 5000 feet and only go
horsepower on top OF Pixies Peak.
Another thing is that sometimes grades are de-
ceptive and we don't realize how steep they are il
there is no level ground to judge by.
So II we go on road trip and happen to get into
country where hills hills, we often have no idea

BRITISH HESITATION

In 1914 German hatred of England
reached its highest level when the Ger
mans were disappointed that the British
did no remain neutral in the war which
was being inaugurated. So, now, Hitler,
with all his nationalism, hopes for for
eigr policy that will gradually prevent
Great Britain taking sides with France in
the event of another struggle
The Germans would not go to war if
they knew the British would support the
French, therefore, it seems to us that I'M
certainty about the British attitude will
encourage rather than prevent war. When
Foreign Secretary Eden completed re-
cent speech before the House of Commons,
the Opposition, represented by Hugh Dial
tor formerly Labor Under-Secretary in
the Foreign Department. expressed this
viewpoint:
Great Britain should tell the German
people in friendship and frankness that
their political and economic equality is
recognized. But that does not mean that
we recognize the right of any nation to an
Overbearirg, brutal predominance Ger
many houd be told that if she returns to
the League she will have no need for over
powering ornaments because she will be
collectively guaranteed as to the inviol-
ability of all her frontiers.

is to have no free hand to attack Poland

ONLY GERMS CAUSE COLDS

You can't catch a cold, says DR.. j. A.
Doull, by sitting in draft, by stepping
into a cold room after a hot bath, by
getting feet wet or by rushing outdoors
without an Overcoat.
The doctor is director of the Depart
ment of Hygiene and Public Health at the
Western Reserve University School of
Medicine. He stresse, the fact that colds
are caught only by infection.
We would be the last to dispute the
learned doctor but the idea is generally
prevalent that the individual can bring on
a cold by doing the very things that the
doctor says will not give you a cold. Maybe,
doing these things only tend to a condition
inviting attack by the cold germ, which is
success full because of the susceptibility of
the victim.
Anyway, it Is good to emphasize to
readers that colds are infectious and that
any person with cold should not contact
others and thus give them the same malady.
1t has been common observation that a
cold goes through a family and it is a
helpful sign when people begin to take
preventive measures to prevent the spread
of the common cold.
