Why not demand open discussion,

tell me that Priest must stay out Of

instruct any scheming group in the
fact that Christ's true Church does
not give boot what your political
stand may be; but, this Church does
instruct her Priests to fight for just
lce-JuStlce between individuals, and
justice between groups. And the
church always did, and always will,

The dear good folks of North Caro-

July "a, 1541-A chronicler gives us
a picture of King Henry VIII of Eng

The King ate enormously, stuffing
the meat into his little mouth with
his knife. AS he munched, the meat
and vegetables popping from cheek
to cheek, his eyes shone with happi-
ness. He jabbed his greasy knife in
to the saltcellar, blew his nose on
his napkin, spat into the washing
bowl-he was the King.
The meat was soaked with sauces
of parsley, garlic, ounce pear, wine;
there were great pastries, glittering
with sugar, or hiding launches of
venison soaked to rags and powdered
with ginger; there was veal boiled
with sage and smeared with CHINA
mon, cloves and saffron, stiffened
with eggs, all buted under pastries
dotted with dates.
Then came dessert of perfumed
i)'uits and candied flowers-violets
roses, primroses and hawthorn. Men
fell on one knee to offer more things
for that little mouth to bolt. Any
thing was thrown into it. He grab
bed from dish to dish, and when food
was on its way and he was forced to
pause, he would seize a handful OF
raisins or almonds and fling them
into his mouth"
This was just an ordinary daily
meal.

CONSTITUTION
REFORM AIDED
BY AAA UPSET
Labor, Farmers, Townsend
Group Believed Ready to
Urge Change.
BY MAX STERN
Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-Possi-
bility of mass support for a consti-
tutional amendment appeared to be
growing today. 1t was learned that
three big groups are discussing plans
to protect Congress right to legis-
late in their behalf. These are.
!. The American Federation of
Labor, 100000 strong. It's execu-
tive council is to meet at Miami
Jan. Is to make definite plans to
launch an amendment.
2. Farm groups On Jan. Is and
II the national agricultural confer
ence, representing 100000 farmers,
is to be held here. This group in
cludeS the American Farm Bureau
Federation, National Cooperative
Council, National Grain Corp. and
Farm Editors. The conference is
to discuss proposed AAA substitutes
and possible cooperation with labor
in an amendment crusade.
3. The Townsend Planners. DR..
F. E. Townsend said today he would
support an amendment IF this ap-
peared to be the only way" to pro-
tect his social security plans. He
claims a Townsend Club member
ship of 100000.
Claims Need for Amendment
President William Green of the
A. F. of L. said today that Mondays
Supreme Court decision points
most emphatically to the necessity
of amending the Constitution.
At the A. F. of L. convention in
October Mr.. Green urged union
labor to sponsor an amendment
broadening and clarifying Congress
right to regulate interstate indus
try. The Schechter decision, he
said, placed the immediate welfare
and the future destiny of the en-
tire nation under the dead hand
of obsolete judicial dogma" The
Federation voted to support an
amendment, but left details to the
executive council.
The latest decision is disquiet-
ing" Mr.. Green said. II still hope
the court will make more liberal
Interpretation of the welfare clause
with regard to the Guffey, Wagner
Labor, Social Security and other
acts in which we are interested.
But We are convinced that the Con-
Stitution must be amended"
The form the A. F. of L. amend
ment will take is undecided but
Mr.. Green offered the following
draft as tentative suggestion:
Proposal Offered
'"The Congress shall have the
power to enact laws for the social
and economic welfare of the nation:
and the fifth amendment shall not
be construed to impose any sub
stantive limitations upon the exer-
else of this power. Nothing herein
shall be construed to impair the
regulatory power of the several
states with respect to the subject
matter hereof, except insofar as the
exercise of such powers by a state
may be in conflict with legislation
enacted by the Congress pursuant to

Jackson Dinners Tonight
to Open Democrats 80
Fight, New Deal Defense
Hoosiers Await Address by
President: Many Din
ners Scheduled.

Democrats of Indianapolis and of
the state were prepared today for
the possibility that President Roose-
welt may launch an attack tonight
on the Supreme Court AAA decision
when he broadcasts his annual
jackson Day address.
A number of ward and township
dinners will be held in Marion
County. The largest, at which Judge
Walter E. Treanor, of the Indiana
Supreme Court, will speak, is to be
at the Meridian Heights Presbyter-
ian Church. More than 600 persons
are expected.
The outstanding state meeting to-
night will be at Marion. home town
of Lieut.. Gov. M. Clifford Townsend,
where the Lieutenant Governor is
expected to announce his candidacy
for the nomination for Governor.
Gov. McNutt is en- route to
Austin, Tex. at the request of
the Democratic National Commit
tee, to make the Jackson Day adj
dress there. Omer S. Jackson, state
chairman, has left for Washington
to attend the jackson Day dinner
there.
Senators Frederick VanNuys aNl
Sherman Minton and their wives,
and Mrs. Samuel Ralston, national
committeewoman, are to be the
guests at the Washington dinner of
Thomas Taggart, national commit
teeman.
One Of the larger Marion Coun-
ty meetings will be at the Athe-
naeum at the joint dinner of the
Eleventh, Eighth and Third Wards.
Criminal Judge Frank P. Baker is
the scheduled speaker.

this article; and the fourteenth
amendment shall not be construed
to impose any substantive limita.,
tons upon tha exercise of the leg
islative power of the several states. Z"
Plans for farm groups are still
formative. Chester Gray of the
Farm Bureau Federation said, how
ever, that an amendment would be
considered seriously.
DR.. Townsend admitted the AAA
decision might affect his pension
plan. He suggested the plan might
be changed to permit the states to
administer the pensions. If, after
consultation with his counsel, he de-
cides constitutional amendment is
necessary, he said his 5000 clubs
would be swung behind such a
movement
Senator Carey (R., Wyo) issued a
statement declaring the AAA deci-
sion ruled the Townsend plan out
as unconstitutional.
