giant, cruel, and merciless will, too

government by Neville Chamberlain,
who has been chancellor of the ex-

in the cabinet were made.
Mr.. Baldwin is to become Earl
Baldwin of Bewdley and sit in the
house of peers. But Ramsay Mac
Donald, former prime minister and
afterward lord president of the
council, who retired from the cab
met with Baldwin, has declined to
accept a title, presumably because
he didn't wish to be laughed at by

raised by the new wages and hours

One of those who believe the

defeat is Raymond Moley, former
head of the "brain trust" Address
ing the Illinois Bankers convention
in Chicago, DR.. Moley scathingly at
tackled the scheme. "The Presi-

dangers of a government of men.
Well, there is something worse than
a government of men; it is gov
eminent by man.
'"Most law and all constitutional
government down the ages are real

unlovely tendency in rulers to lose
their heads in the intoxication Of
power.
"There are incidental factors that
have contributed to the defeat of the
Presidents proposal to violate in
this way the spirit of the Constitu-
ton. The change in the philosophy
dominating the majority opinion Of
the court has helped. The scatter
ing of the attorney generals insin-
cere, insubstantial statistics by the
chief justice is another. The retire
ment of Justice Van Devanter has
helped, too.
"But behind all this has been a
slow and powerful surge of public
opinion. The people prefer the sta
