DOES the will Of the majority
- always prevail?
Throughout history people have suf.
fesed from the tyranny Of all-pOwerful
rulers or of unrestrained legislative
bodies whose members, eager for re-
election, hear the voice from mills,
farms, Offices or districts representing
small but determined minOrities. IRE.
spOnsible legislators know that these
minOrities will punish at the polls while
majOrities remain uneoneerned, and 50

erous minorities instead Of the welfare
Of the whole people.
To guard against this, our Consti.
tuition makes Congress the law-making
body, balances this against the exeeu.
tive, with power to approve OF veto acts
Of Congress, and balances each Of
these against the Supreme Court.
Our Constitution creates these bal.
anees as a check against elamorous

doomed and bands blared. Some
of the foreign groups gave the Hit
Ter salute as they passed by the
chancellor. Others did not. Among
the latter were the Americans, who
placed their straw hats on their left
breasts and marched by with eyes
right. Nor was the American flag
dipped before the fuehrer, the ex-
PLANTATION being that this was done
only before the President. The
American contingent was greeted
by an outburst of whistling which
the knowing declared meant the
raspberry" But on the whole the
affair was decidedly successful.
In the first days contests the
United States started things with
rush. Jesse Owens, Ohio States
colored star, broke the Olympic
and world records in winning his
heat in the 100-meter dash; and
Johnson, who is from California,
set a new Olympic record of 2.O3
meters. In some other events the
Americans did well, and in yet
others they were eliminated.
In the 100 meter finals Owens won
and Metcalfe of Chicago was Sec
ond. Helen Stephens of Missouri,
in winning two heats of the won-
ems 100 meter event, broke the
world record both times.
By vote of SO to q Toxic won
the Olympic games for 1910, Finland
being the losing bidder. The Amer
leans, South America and the Brit
ish empire were virtually solid for
Japan, which offered transporta-
ton subsidy of about $4S5, 900 to off
set costs of travelling in the Far
East. The Firms urged that the
games be returned to a Spartan
simplicity.

President Roosevelt's
Vacation Is Ended

d RESIDENT ROOSEVELT ended
his 437 mile cruise when his
yacht locked at Campobello island,
New Brunswick, where he has a
summer home. He shaved off the
sidewhiskers, he had grown to sur
prise his wife and mother and went
ashore for picnic and reception
with members of his family and
friends in the summer colony of
the island Canadian Royal Mount
ed police joined with the American
secret service men in guarding the
distinguished visitor.
Mr.. Roosevelt rem aine at
Campobello only two days and then
took a special train to Quebec,
where he visited with Lord Tweeds-
muir, governor general of Canada.
Immediately after this meeting,
Mr.. Roosevelt took train for his
summer residence in Hyde Park,
N. Y, and there began mapping
the plans for his campaign for re-
election. Half a dozen leaders of
the Democratic party, including
National Chairman James A. Far
ley, were summoned into confer
ence with their chief. The Pres
ident also obtained from Secretary
Wallace and Chester Davis a report
on drouth conditions and relief
needs.

Lewis and Allies Absent

When A. F. of L. Council Meets
John L. LEWIS, head of the Unit
- ed Mine Workers, and his II as
sociates on the Committee for In
dustrial Organization, made good
their promice not to be present
when the executive council of the
American Federation of Labor met
to try them on charges of "insur-
rection." The council members
were plainly angered by this def
ance and it was predicted they
would proceed to find the defend
ants guilty Sin absentia' and to
suspend the unions in the Lewis
group. This would be the greatest
split in the ranks of American or
ganized labor since the federation
was formed fifty years ago. 1t
would mean the loss of about one
third of the federation's member
ship.
Previous to the meeting of the
council President William Green in
an imprisoned speech accused
Lewis and his followers of substi-
tuting Jungle law" for democracy
in their efforts to organize the steel
industry. He said he was prepared
to make any personal sacrifice,
even to resigning his office, to
bring about peace and "bind up
the wounds"
AS for the oft-repeated charge of
the CLIO unions that the A. F. of l..
leadership had failed to organize
the unorganized, Green asserted
that you couldn't "move human
beings like sacks of salt or pounds
of sugar."

insurgents claimed they held Huel-

territory between Seville and the
Portuguese border. The loyalists
directed a strong attack on Sara
gossa but advices from the front
reaching Perpignan, France, said
their three columns were ambushed
by the rebels in narrow canyon

eral Caballero commanded the IN
surgents in that action.
The government, now a red die
tatorship, has taken possession OF
all church property and assumed
control of all industry and agricul-
ture. 1t also has confscated the
merchant marine to form a defense
fleet. The loyalists were encour-
aged by victories in and around
San Sebastian.

bombing planes were sent to them
in Morocco. The leftist French
government naturally is in sympa-
thy with the Madrid government
and Frenchmen, unarmed, have
been given permission to cross the
border to aid in putting down the
rebellion. German and Russian
sympathies, also, are ranged on
opposite sides, and all this caused
fears that a general war might re-
suit. France called on all other
nations to preserve neutrality, and
Spain warned Italy and Germany
to keep hands off.
Day by day the struggle in Spain
became bloodier and more ruth
less. Summary executions of pris-
onerS were common on both sides
and these deaths were probably as
numerous as those in battle. The
government planes shower d
bombs on the rebel strongholds,
virtually destroying many towns
and the Fascist bombers engaged
in desperate fights with loyal war
ships.

New Locarno Pact May
Give Europe Security

1--WE Europe security
WHILE the nations of Europe
w were worrying over the Span
ish rebellion and the danger that it
might bring about open rupture
among the Fascist and anti-Fascist
governments of the continent, steps
were taken to assure peace. Ger
many and Italy accepted the invi-
tation of Great Britain, France and
Belgium to participate in a con-
ference this fall from which it is
hoped another and better Locarno
pact will emerge.
No date for the conference has
been set, but it was expected to be
held either just before or soon after
the meeting of the league OF ma
tons assembly in Geneva in Sep
TENDER.
Both Germany and Italy stressed
the need that it be preceded by
careful diplomatic negotiations.
Britain's parliament adjourned
after hearing a government asser-
ton that the prospective Locarno
talks would ease the tense Euro

Government Crop Report
Shows Drouth Damage

THE WEEKLY crop report and
i weather summary of the De-
partment of Agriculture revealed
that the drouth and high tempera-
ture were playing havoc with the
corn crop in most of the leading
producing states. In some sections
there will not even be fodder and
over much larger area no grain
will be obtained this year. There
were good rains, however, in parts
of the central and eastern areas
and improvement was noted there
in both corn and pasturage.
The present drouth in Iowa, the
department said, has caused great
er damage to corn than that of
1884. The summary reported al
most complete destruction of the
crop in two southern and two west
ern tiers of counties, with serious
damage in some other sections.
Threshing of winter wheat re-
vealed expected yields, the report
said, but spring wheat conditions
were termed disappointing.
