What viii Huahes Do7

OBJECTIONS to the seating of
" Hugo Black as a justice of the
Supreme court on the constitutional
ground that the emoluments of the
Office were raised while Black was
a senator brought Chief Justice
Hughes back to Washington before
his vacation was ended. Associate
Justice Brandeis also returned to
the capital and he and Hughes were
expected to confer on the matter
and to examine the objections. Just
what Mr.. Hughes or any other MEM
Der of the court could do was I'M
certain. Constitutional lawyers
agree that Black could not be de-
MED his seat because he was a
member Of the Ku Klux Khan, but
many of them thought the court, if
it decides to take jurisdiction, could
bar him on constitutional grounds.
There was reason to believe this So
luton of the exceedingly unpleasant
matter would suit President Roose-
welt. Should the President ask
Black to resign, the latter might re-
fuse, and that would be most en-
barrassing for Mr.. Roosevelt.

Green Slams Lewis

n ENUNCIATIONS of William
~ Green by John Lewis and of
Lewis by Green come almost daily,
but the attack on the C. l. o. leader
by the president of the A. F. of L.
in a speech in Washington was es-
pecially vigorous. He declared the
beetle-browed Lewis was an oppor-
tunist who hopes to gain political
power through the formation of a
party combining labor and agricul-
ture, and reiterated the opposition
of the federation to the organization
of such party. --.
Lewis, said Green, was to blame
for the bloody strike in "little steel'
plants and for its collapse which he
attributed to c. I. O.'s disregard of
the rule that the workers them
selves should decide when to strike.
"Srely those who are to suffer
and sacrifice in a strike ought to be
accorded the right to say whether
they are ready and willing to do
So" Green asserted. ''The issues
involved in any impending indus
trial conflict ought to be made clear
and thoroughly understood"

President on Constitution

A LII orators on the one hundred
fiftieth anniversary of the sign
ing of the Constitution were loud in
praise of that great document. Pres
ident Roosevelt, speaking from the
foot of the Washington monument,
was emphatic in his expression of
admiration for and loyalty to the
basic law which his opponents have
accused him of trying to under
mine. But he called it a "layman's
constitution" and lawyers con-
tract" He reiterated his asser-
tions that the Constitution was in
tended by it's makers to be state
ment of detectives and not a rigid
document, and declared democratic
government in this country can do
all things which "comr1nonsense peo-
pie, seeing the picture as a whole,
have the right to expect" f..
81 believe that these things can
be done under the Constitution with
out the surrender of a single one
of the civil and religious liberties
it was intended to safeguard" Mr..
Roosevelt continued, land am de-
termined that under the Constitu-
ton those things shall be DONE"
Sharply condemning relationships
abroad, Mr.. Roosevelt said there is
a crisis in American affairs that
threatens our democracy and that
if that democracy is to survive, it
must meet the demands of the peo-
pie for economic and social secur-
ity and improved standards of liv-
ing. Plutocratic and proletarian die
tatorships, said he, are equally dan
gerous. ~ "A e9t - SD If
