Seizure of Telegrams.

A somewhat anomalous situation re-
suits from the decision of the District
Court of Appeals, rendered yesterday, in
the matter of the seizure of kilograms
by the Federal Communications Commits.

Investigating Committee. The appellate
court, affirming the ruling of the lower
court, holds that the commission acted
not only without authority, but in VIC.
lation of law when it seized the tele-
grams and turned them over to the
Senate committee. 1t likewise holds that,
despite this trespass upon the privacy of
individuals, it has no power to prevent
the use by the Senate Of the messages
so seized. In other words, 1t was wrong
to seize the kilograms, but there is no
way in the law to estop the improper
disclosure Of the messages.
The appellate court declares itself in
clear terms in respect to the Limitation
upon its power of injunction, saying:
"The legislative discretion In discharge
of its constitutional functions, whether
rightfully or wrongfully exercised, Is not
subject for judicial interference. The
Constitution has lodged the legislative
power exclusively in the Congress. II q
court could say to Congress that it could
use or could not use the information
in its possession, the independence of
the Legislature would be destroyed and
the constitutional separation Of the
powers Of Government invaded"
This does not suggest doubt as to
the power of the courts to pass upon the
validity of legislation in terms of the
Constitution, which has been repeatedly
maintained and demonstrated. It does,
however. hold that the courts cannot
prevent the use in legislative debate Of
knowledge unconstitutionally acquired.
In other words, it Is wrong to get pos

Hitler's reported plan for re-establish-

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES +. TRACEWELL.

There have been some very pretty sky
effects recently, both morning and even-
ing. with sunlight on changing foliage Of
great trees.
Not in many years have individual
trees shone 20 sl0riously.
This is something to take particular
note Of, as one walks around the city,
especially In the suburbs, or stays at
home.
The yellows are fine this Fall. Many
specimen trees are to be found which
gleam with . most golden light when
the sun falls upon them.
Perhaps the mass effect OF many trees
Is not quite ~ good this season. but these
individual specimens more than make
up for it.
Even when the sun Is not shining upon
them some OF these yellow masses give
complete effect Of sunshine, so that the
spectator feels warm at the sight.
These are special effects: the real show
comes In the morning and evening, at
sunup and sundown.
Great masses Of red gleam on the
horizon, In old but ever new displays.
Most OF these illumination last but q
few minutes. changing second by second.
II some one calls to you, Come and
look at this sunset" do not hesitate long.
because II you do the best part Of the
display may be over.
Watching such feast Of color through
trees Is the best way. This breaks up
the uniformity, gives in contrast, makes
the fading more lovely.
1t may be news to newcomers here that
Washington has been noted for glorious
sunsets in particular.
In intensity OF color and surpa ssing
artistic effect these displays are peculiar
ly effective for a city where usually
Nature. in her more subtle manifesto
tions, Is somewhat muted.
The crimson glow TO be seen in our
Autumn skies is well worth looking for,
and speaking about when seen.
Do not keep this beauty to yourself.
Call some one to share 1t with you.
Remember that 1t will fade rapidly,
often SO quickly as to surprise you.
This Is one of the most beautiful Of
all natural moving pictures" And the
best part Of 1t all Is that one does not
have to travel to Italy or any other place
but can stand in ones own doorway and
see something as beautiful rs any.
We are sure that II an artist painted
some Of the recent sunsets few who
looked at the painting would believe the
view was Of Washington.
This, Of course, provided the artist
were q real one. who knew his business,
and particularly how to capture the ex-
act shade, tint, whatever one calls 1t, of
color light.
Color is one thing. light Is another.
color light q third.
Light color it might be called. perhaps
but color light Is better for 1t brings out
the fact that light has color, that 1t may
be seen, and comprehended as one sees
This seems TO be the essence OF artistic
comprehension of any sort. 1t Is not
enough just to see, and to exclaim, Won
derful!" or That's swen!" 1t is neces-
sary to realize that the thing is fine

After Matlrid's Fall.

With Madrid's fall apparently now
situation once again projects the menace
of grave international complications.
While General Frances aircraft was
spreading renewed devastation through
the capital during the week end. Premier
Blum made the startling suggestion that
France is ready to scrap the nom
Intervention agreement and come to the
aid of the Leftist government il Great
Britain joins in such action. 1t is easy
to credit the CONSERVATION caused in
London by this sudden change of front
at Paris for, even with insurgent vic
tory imminent, Anglo French armed
support of the crumbling republican
government would almost automatically
precipitate counter action by Germany
and Italy.
In addressing the Socialist National
Council, NJ Blum indicated that French
aid for the Spanish LeftiSts, which the
Paris government was always inclined
to render, had been withheld only be-
cause assurance of British corporation
was lacking I'VE could not allow our
working class to walk into blind ad-
venture" the premier explained. 'for,
X general war had come along,
France would have found herself alone
except for Russia" 1t can safely be
assumed that both France and Britain
banker to see the curtain rung down
on the Spanish tragedy speedily and
with finality. All concerned are pain
fully aware that in prolongation OF
hostilities lies enduring peril of a Euro
pean conf1agration.
Yet another danger of foreign COM
plications looms in the reported plan of
Catalonia to set up republic in
dependent of the rest of Spain as a bold
and ingenious method of ending the
war. Catalan delegates now in Paris
are understood to be attempting to en-
list French sympathy for such a project.
It's essence IS that government based
on Barcelona would be established under
guarantees that 1t will be liberal repub-
lican. and neither anarchist nor Com
munist, in return for the benevolent pro-
lection alike Of France, Britain, Ger
many, Italy and Russia. The CatalanS
would be willing to cease fighting and
recognize the rule of the insurgents over
the remainder of the country. They
reason that the idea should be attractive
to both Germany and Italy, because
neither of them wants a red regime in
Barcelona. France is comprehensibly
hesitant to entertain the Catalan pro-
posa1 for fear of offending Franco, as
well as his German and Italian friends.
On the other hand, once Berlin and
Rome recognize a Spanish Fascist gov
ernment, France will be on the horns of
. dilemma no less embarrassing.
The prospect of friendly Catalonia
appeals to the French because of Musso-
lini's ambitions to dominate the Mediter-
ranean. An independent regime at
Barcelona could safeguard the safety Of
Frances vital communications with her
North African empire, which would be
seriously threatened If the east coast,
along with the rest of Spain, were
Fascist For all these rea-
sons, it is disquietingly apparent that
while Madrid's fall will signify insurgent
victory, it will not necessarily mean the
end of civil war. 1t will distinctly not
Danish the aftermath specter of far
flung European strife.

And the fearful mistakes that they

OF Samson we learn and with sadness

The page where his deeds are displayed
To Solomons wealth and his physical

A high admiration we vow:
Yet in paying respect it is wrong to
neglect
Plain folks who are living right now.
There were heroes so true that our an
cestors knew,
And rapscallions perhaps here and
there.
A Helen of Troy tempted men to employ
Some methods of warfare unfair.
But earth must revolve and its problems

And we gently inquire as to how
We will manage the cares that each

For us folks who are living right now.
