vicinity OF the station. proved an
unusual spectacle in the city's
history.
Eight local ministers lead by
Rev. Jonathan CASTOR, Rev. w. d.
and w. p. Carter went over to
India, California to act as an es-
cort to the Presidents Special,
riding back with the national off,

travellers UP the long tunnel lead

amazement at such tremendous
crowd waiting to welcome them
were clearly visible on the faces OF
some Of the southerners who OBJ
viously showed a bit OF stage
fright on emerging from the dark
tunnel into the light OF the great
foyer OF the station with thunder
GUS cheers greeting their appear

Long past the lunch hour the
mass kept intact for the reception
to the Presidents Special. At one
o'clock II swept into view. There
was little order then. One might

Williams was something OF god
or king to these people az they
swarmed over the train beat upon
the windows. literally mobbed him
for touch OF his clothes, a hand
shake, a friendly greeting when
the reception committee and news
paper folk finally rescued him
from the crushing throng.
Entering the station, williams
paused for a second, lifted his
hand. removed his hat and gave
the official "hello." For the first
time q great hush fell over the
crowd. Then It went mad again,

have ever had In the history OF the

The Rorai amendment would
limit the Court inits consideration
of the laws of the States and thus
provide latitude for social and
regulatory legislation. Ii would
probably end the much discussed
twilight zone which has hereto
fore resulted when the Courts
have thrown out Federal legisla-
ton because the Federal govern
ment had no such power under
the Constitution and then, in 9TH
er decision, denied State govern
ments the power to legislate un-
der the "dEe process clause. It
does not meet the Presidents pur-
poses, however, for two reasons.
First, it involves time to secure an
amendment, and, secondly, it
leaves the Federal government
without the admitted power to
meet what the President considers
to be problems that cannot be
solved by the individual action of
the as States.

Meanwhile the Supreme Court,
handing down a to a decision.
upheld the government in effect
by declaring rental, payable in
"a quantity of gold'' equal to
$500 in gold coin of the weight
and fineness of the year 1894, or
its equivalent in United States
currency, was unenforceab.e. The
division of the Court was the same
as that which upheld the gold
clause cases in 1895, with Justices
Van DeVanter, Sutherland, Me-
Reynolds and Butler dissenting.
The contract in question called
for the payment of rent in "a guam
tity of gold, rather than in a
specified number of dollars. JUS
tice Cardoza, who wrote the opin-
ion, said it is of little mo-
ment that currency is characteriz-
ed as a commodity and declared
that weasel words will not defeat
intention. He pointed out, how
ever, that transactions for the sale
of gold for industrial purposes are
not within the meaning of the
law.

BENJAMIN TYNES
4 IS SERIOUSLY ILL

Benjamin Tynes has been con-

While other matters await the
outcome of the battle on the Court
proposal, the idea is generally get
ting abroad that the President
has definite legislative measures
to present to Congress at this ses-
sion. This is based upon the be-
lief that Mr.. Roosevelt's Madison
Square Garden speech, with its
enumeration of intentions and as
sertion. "foF all these we have on
ly just begun to fight" really out
lines his program. This is en-
phasized by the fact that his an
nual message TO Congress indicat-
ed something along the line of his
Court proposals, and the realiza-
ton that before he can accomplish
much along certain lines he must
have a Court attuned to his social
and economic plans.

Moreover, the judges themselves
have often been unable to agree
as to whether law was arbitrary
or unreasonable.
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1937-03-08

An interesting development of
the battle has been the proposal
of Senator Borah to amend the
Constitution to prevent the judi
cary from using the "due pro-
cess" clause to kill laws held to be
undu,y harsh or arbitrary. His
amendment would limit the appli-
cation of the phrase, other than
in reference to certain portions of
the Bill of Rights, to the ''proce-
dCre of executive, administrative,
or judicial bodies charged with
the execution and enforcement
of the law"
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1937-03-08

Significance lies in the fact that
when the Fourteenth amendnpsht
was written it was adopted to
safeguard the lives, liberty and
property of ex-slaves but the
Courts have defined it to widen
the authority of the courts to set
aside laws when, in the judges
opinion, the laws were arbitrary
or unreasonable in effect upon
property. The result has been
that many laws have been affect
ed BY what the judges thought of
its SUBSTANCE rather than its lack
of due process in procedure.
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1937-03-08

1t can be said distinctly that the
President feels that the country
faces crisis that demands drastic
remedies and that the issues must
be satisfactory solved if democ-
racy is to work. He believes that
dictators and demagogues will
flourish if the government fails to
provide what he is convinced the
people demand. In fact, he con-
siders that his work is necessary
to prevent the rise of those who
do not believe in democracy, that
thwarting of popular will by the
judiciary or long delay in enact
ing reforms will lead to a situa-
ton which might menace the
preservation of democratic pro-
cesses and that his program will
save capitalism from the attacks
of its enemies.

1t seems safe to assume that, if
the Court plan is adopted, the
President will press a program
which includes the reorganization
of the executive branch of the
government, the establishnent Of
minimum wages, maximum hours
and the abolition of child labor,
the prevention of unfair gtrade
practices, the revival of agricul-
ture through better land use, re-
forestation, conservation, flood
and drought control with crop
control, if necessary, to bring it
about, a slun1-elearance and low
cost housing program, definite aid
to farm tenants, broadened social
security measures, adequate relief
and recovery appropriations and
the renewal and extension of GER
tain agencies that would other
wise end by operation of law.

Basically, the division of opin-
ion is along lines clearly indieat-
ed in previous battles between
the New Dealers and those OPP
posed to its general philosophy
of government. The Republicans
and conservative Democrats open
ly oppose the manoeuvre while
ardent supporters of the President
rally to his standard. Every eff
fort is apparently being made to
intensity propaganda on both
sides, with the Presidents radio
talk the elimination of the drives.
4 Actually, the situation last week
in the Senate gave a slight edge
to the proponents of the change
as it appeared that a majority of
the Senators would vote favor
ably. A poll of public sentiment,
taken by the Institute of Public
Opinion, along the lines of its sue
cessf1l presidential tests IF opin-
ion, however, revealed SO per cent
of the people voting were against
the plan.
