Washington. D ca vigorous
criticism 81 the power which the
courts exercise to nullify laws enacted
BY congress by declaring them uncon-
stitutional characterizes an editorial
by William Green in the March issue
Of the American Federationist.
Discussing The Key to Democratic
Governments Mr.. Green takes the
position that judicial authority to
void statutes tends to establish gov
ernment BY the judiciary which is
held to be at variance with the funda.
mental principles underlying demo-
cratic government. He emphasizes the
paramount necessity of preserving
complete legislative power for the
representatives of the people IN the
United States congress.
The text Of the editorial follows
NO institution can so through
years Of existence and function upon
changing conditions and forces with
out modifying its own procedure from
time to time.
Since the government Of the
/ United States has been operating un-
der the constitution, the Union has
grown from 13 states of the status of
colonies ii As states with Alaska,
Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the Virgin
Islands.
We have changed from a domi-
nantly agricultural country to an in
dustrial one. Instead Of largely self
dependent communities depending
mainly upon water transportation, we
now sell and buy in national markets
geared to international conditions.
From groups widely separated By
distance aud slow ways of communi
cation, we can go from coast to coast
in "a hours and single voice car
speak to the whole nation. From be
ing a small uninfuential nation, w
have become a world powera a cred
itor nation instead Of a nation tina
borrows.
In the great political and soeia
changes that have followed economi
and technical progress, government
has met new situations and has de
veloped new functions.
"Our constitution formulates funda
mental principles to be followed, bu
there must be power lodged in som
division to allocate new functions an
duties.
Naturally we turn to the body tha
represents those who hold ultimat
sovereignty the citizens Of the na
tion. Congress is the representative
branch Of the federal governmen
directly responsible to the citizens

LARGE PART
OF PWA Fund Paid Out Fol
Materials
By A. F. of L. News Service.

By A. +. of l.. News Service.
Harold L. Ickes, secretary of the
interior, who is also public works
administrator. in an official statement
says that over 60 per cent 81 the funds
so far expended py the public works
administration have gone tor the
purchase Of materials.
The manufacture, transportation
and other handling Of these materials
it IS pointed out, have served to stimu-
late private industry and to provide
considerable employment indirectly
aside from the direct employment
which PWA projects provide.
A total of S1,223, 100000 had beer
expended for materials on PWA prof,
ects, the report stated, up to February
| /, and an additional expenditure o.
/ 50, 900, 100000 is contemplated.
These purchases are claimed to have
been major factor in sustaining tht
heavy industries at the present leve
Of operations.

From congress, the law making body
we expect ALLEGATION Of new power
and regulation Of its use under the
spirit and fundamental principles Of
our constitution
Law is a method Of adjusting hu
man relations which are both dynamic
and changing. Unless law serves as
a social instrument it becomes an in
strument Of reactionary, group inter-
ests. TO keep the enactment Of law IN
the hands of the representatives OF
the people, is the key TO the mainte-
nance of democratic self-government
TO allow courts to review law fol
the purpose Of notification, IS to
create an all-powerful judiciary and
to establish government BY the judici-
airy.
~The issue which we face and which
we must decide by action OF inaetior
lis: Shall the law making function be
delegated to the congress Of the
United States?
| The functions Of the judiciary are
quite different from those Of the law
making body and hence the person
mel are selected in a different way
Lawmakers must be responsible di
rectly to the citizenry. Shall we tax,
steps to return it there?"

1t suggests the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation as the natural source of
such loans, and adds;
Since small enterprise plays a
very important part in the economic
life of the nation, no appreciable trend
in widespread recovery can be expect
led, unless immediate provision is
made for long term credit to small
industries

Adequate Pay Urged
A national industrial policy designed
to increase consumer buying power
was advocated in another report,
adopted BY the council II is one Of
number on general industrial pol.
icies, covering wage and labor stand
ards, the antitrust laws and federal
trade commission act and government
competition with private enterprise.
The report on national industrial
policy was drawn up BY committee
on which William Green represented
labor. The committee suggested that
buying power be increased through
the maintenance Of adequate wage
scales, progressive lowering of selling
prices, wherever and whenever made
possible through cost reduction by
reason Of chronological or other pro-
duction Improvements, and reduction
of capital and debt charges which
burden industry and increase the cost
Of goods
On the question Of wages and
hours, the committee advocated a
minimum wage and payment of sub
stantial overtime rates for hours
worked in excess Of a reasonable
work week, as advisable to increase
wage earners purchasing power anc
make for unemployment
Aid to Small Business Asked
Loans from the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation to finance small
enterprises is the chief suggestion
Of third report Of the council
AS part of a general co-ordinatec
plan Of industrial recovery says tn,
council, or until such plan is pu
into effect, financial aid to small enter
prises offers a comparatively simple
PiaSIl1et1 dtlQ lulIHeQldle means o
increasing production and purchasin,
power"
The council declares that the follow
ing facts are proved by statistical in
yestigation:
4. That small enterprise provide
for considerably more than half o
the total normal employment.
y That small enterprise is Il
sponsible for slightly more than hal
Of existing employment.
'3- That need of small enterprise
for long term credit is becoming ii
creasingly urgent.
"A. That continuation of preser
conditions will increase the tendenc
to monopoly and higher prices, wit
further reduction of employment an
the buying power Of workers"
RFC Loans Suggested
The report goes on to say that lac
Of working capital has been a serio,
handicap to small industry, and Il
necessity of buying raw materials
limited quantities means higher cost
