One of the interesting and impor-

manner in which the labor press has
launched a demand for constitutional

Of assassination of laws.
Almost as a whole the labor press
has condemned the attitude of the
supreme court and its usurped power
to nullify acts of congress.
Much more effectively than the
daily press, with more intelli-
gence and with infinitely more
fearlessness. the labor press has
grasped this great issue, has
shown an understanding of it
and has sailed in to demand a
proper protection of human
rights.
The constitution is, in truth, a
great document. 1t protects human
liberties and it works as well as the
supreme court will let it work.
But the supreme court has shown
that there is a point at which the con-
stitution is not to be allowed to work
in its present form.
Concealed in the whole dispute is
the elemental issue between property

to the fact that Franklin Delano

himself. Like Abou Be Adam, his
love for "his fellowman" is the ruling
passion of his life. And, his ad-
mirers say, from this quality of heart
and mind has sprung so much Of his
legislative program.
In following the dictates of his
heart, Franklin Roosevelt has brought
about legislation more dramatic, more
dictatorial than any ever sponsored
by a President, save, perhaps, Andrew
Jackson. A glance at this legislation
which has gone on-and some of it
of-the statute books of the Nation
since 1888 inspires the thought of
this trend or general objective-the
exaltation of man over the material
things of life and his freedom from
the economic chains which the Presi-
dent has seen being woven around
him by our materialistic and machine
dominated civilization. 1t is legisla-
tion-whatever else may be said about
(which is defended as springing
from a heart with an abiding in
