CONSTITUTION is LAUDED
IN ADDRESS BY BLOOM
Safeguard to Rights and Liberties
of Nation Held Secret of
It's Stability,

The secret Of this Nations stability
lies IN the fact that its Constitution
Goes more than establish a govern
ment Representative Sol Bloom. di-
rector general of the Constitution
Sesquicentennial Commission, declared
yesterday in radio address.
The Constitution, he said, safe
guards the rights and liberties of the
ndividual man, enables the nobility
OF human nature to express itself.
"mobilizes the irresistible power of all
the people to strike down every at
tempt to trample upon the individual
human body or human soul"
Because the Constitution extends
to every inch of territory under the
flag, the l5oth anniversary of its
signing, September II, 1887, is being
observed in 25o,0o0 celebrations, Bloom
pointed out.

He Says Congress Should DE
mand" an Opinion From Cum
mlngs on Democrats Hold. Up"

BY the Associated Press
Senator Rush Holt. Democrat. of
West Virginia said yesterday that
Congress should demand" an opinion
from Attorney General Cummings
whether the sale Of Democratic cam
paign books violates the Federal cor

Democratic National Committee re-
ported TO the clerk of the House of
Representatives Saturday that sales
of the book from May 81 to August
81 of this year amounted to more
than sl29,237.
Congress should get an opinion
from the Attorney General as to
whether this is a violation of the
corrupt practices act" Holt told re-
porters. If his opinion saws no.
then Congress should amend the act.
The committee is staging the big
gest holdup this country has ever
witnessed the way they are selling
these books" he declared.
Methods employed in disposinp
OF them may not be an outright viola
ton Of the law" said Holt. but to
use term of President Roosevelt's
1t is a moral evasion.
Holt said everybody knows "the
people who bought the books did
so for protection and that it always
pays TO pay protection money when
you think you will have to pay more. ="

speeding up the descent and in

I used it to sharpen up the string

leave the ground. I didn't even
need the bump.
