THE POWER OF THE COURT

By what authority does the Sup
rene Court declare an act OF Congress|
UNCONSTITUTIONAL This question has|
been argued and debated, and the|
procedure Landed and deplored almost
from the early days of the republic.
And after all these years OF argu-l
ment the subject remains ono of vital
interest and concern today, especially
in view of President Koosevelt's pro
posal to increase the membership OIL
the court under certain conditions and
to alter the entire system Of judicial
tenure.
The precedent under which the
court operates is set forth In the case
entitled Marbery vs. Madison by
Chief Justice Marshal whose decisions
became as much part of the consti-
tuition as the written document itself.
He argued thus: The court must mere
ly apply the law or the land to the
the supreme law is the Constitution OF
the United States under which the en-
tire government exists. IT the con-
gress enacts q measure repugnant to
the constitution the court must first
be bound by the basic law OF the coun-
try and declare the act of congress I'M
constitutional, and OF no force or ef-
feet.
This all seems like gooo logic to most
of US. The court cannot say what the
law should be. It should not be guided
by the personal views of the members
Of the court. 1t may merely apply the
first law Of the land to the case in arg
ument.
This should not mean that citizens
have no right to criticise the court. 1t
consists Of human beings and 1t muss
be recognized that even the most In
telligent and reasonable Of men will
make mistakes But the authority under
which the court exercises its power 10

CONSERVATION

With unparalleled floods following
close upon the heels of an unprece-
dented drought, with dust storms
sweeping through regions whore such
events were unknown just a few years
ago, with q steady loss Of soil fertin-
ty due to wind and water erosion the
time has come for Americans to take
serious consideration OF the situation
that faces our nation.
What can be done about it, The
experts advise reforestation on an in
tensive nationwide basis. They also
urge that swamps once drained be re-
stored. That land be cultivated to
control erosion. That 80 far as pos
sible we restore America to condi-
ton approaching its status before the
time of land and forest exploitation.
The government, we observe, re-
ccgnizes the responsibility and oppor-
tunity and comprehensive national
program is being outlined 10 US, how
ever, it seems like too big q job for
any single agency.
Farmers and land owners must helpt
and the most effective way to secure
their cooperation is to offer some in
centive. Why not provide tax exemp-
tions for the farmer VINO will grow
forests on his hillsides, or who will re-
store swamp area that now produces
only on q marginal basis.
Through wise exercise of the pow
or of taxation great nationwide pro-
gram can Immediately be inaugurated
that will produce beneficial results
within very few years. If we must
wait for the Federal government to
do the whole job irreparable damage
to the nations resources may occur
before the task is well advanced to-
ward completion.

But while he talked his attention

purely automatic smiles, there was to
be glimpsed cruel, tight expression
about his narrow lips. That Bulgar
undoubtedly was pretty mad about
something and didn't seem possessed of
self-control in any quantity.
By the time the coffee and liquors
were served, Ian found himself won
dering what to do. Never in his car
eer in the Foreign Service had he ever
been so thoroughly at loss. His own
feelings defied analysis.
In spite of everything, he could
not fight off the overwhelming mag
netlsm OF that dazzling young wo-
man who had furnished the topic of
conversation during the cocktail hour.
If indeed she were a professional
heart breaker, sh was without doubt,
the most deceivingly innocent-looking
one he had ever beheld.

with the things Ian Gray told Leonard
Holt when he took the latter aside
and read what he called the Riot Act.
"You triple-dyed ass! You blither-
ing idiot, what's gotten into you
If you've got to go incoming around
the Won Waldeck girl, for lords sake
don't be so Internally brazen and pub

Leonard Hollis handsome pink fea-

ed. "Not even you can talk to me
like that-I'm free, white and TWEEN

"You don't act like it," was the 9TH
er's bitter retort. "And if you haven't
got sense enough to save yourself, Pm
going to do what l can. You owe
something to Ilya. Have you gone
crazy?"
For the first time since they had
met during the dark days of 1917 the
two men stood glaring at each other,
faces flushed and hands closed. Then,
as usual, the weaker gave in.
ooh, damn it, Ian, don't look at me
like that! 1 can't stand it. I'm
queer these days-all upset. I'm sick
fed up with the whole business.
Truth isl love Lolita-worship her

equilibrium. AHlOHS CHc very ldot
guests to arrive was Leonard Holt
He, after making hurried respects to
Baron Won Satzmar, but oblivious of
everything else, made his way straight
to the side of Countess Won Waldeck,
who, as Ian noticed with sharp mis-
givings, received him with an almost
possessive enthusiasm and called him
"dear boy" or something very like it
Well schooled in human nature
Ian's eye sought group of literally
bejeweled dowagers who, like super
animated Pekineses, sat staring at
the company through their lorgnettes
with hard, bright eyes. Immediately
white tiara crowned heads joined by
twos and threes.
"Um," thought Ian bitterly. "And
when they get finished-poor Ilya will
have been pitied to DEATH"
He rather wondered what the proud
old Baron Zichonvi would do and say
if or rather when these whispers ever
reached his ears. The Baron could
not in any sense be described as a
man of easygoing disposition, and Ian
heaved long, troubled sigh as a pair
of uniformed footmen threw back the
doors of the dining room to reveal
a respondent blaze of silver, napery
and cut glass.
The dinner proved an unhappy one
for Ian. AS dinner partner he
drew Senorita Martela, an Argentine
damsel who possessed enormous eyes
and an apparently irrepressible desire
to make conquest of him. In vain,
Ian attempted to ward off her leads
with his usually effective stock of
witticisms, cynicisms and epigrams,
while feasting his eyes on that almost
ethereal personality across the table.
To his deep dismay he noted that by
evil chance or deep plotting Leonard
had secured the place at Lolita Won
Waldeck's left. There he sat appar-
emily unable to tear his eyes away
from that perfectly moulded form in
white, though she, with a conscious
effort at preserving appearances, con-
stantly diverted her attention to the
utterly captivated white haired Span
ish minister ON her right.
While returning automatic replies
to Senorita Martela's not wholly dis
Greet and incessant flow of bandiage.
Ian found time to study the distin-
guished middle aged gentleman who
appeared to be Lolita's escort. There
was a peculiar upward tilt to that
much decorated nobleman's dark and
very clear eyes that suggested a strain
of Magyar or Slavic blood in his make
up and prompted conjecture as to
Count Won Bradensee's antecedents.
The Counts round; almost hairless
face was set with a glimmering mon
ocle and bore the jolliest of wrinkles
about the corners of eyes and mouth;
yet there were certain lines in that
pink white face that ought not to have
been there. Ian decided that Count
Won Bradensee was nearing sixty, for
the last of his hair that struggled
to survive, like stricken line of in
fantry on the field of a disastrous
battle, was deeply gray. A curious
little man he was-and not without

dignity for all his continual outbursts
of laughter Across his shirt bosom
Lolita's escort wore the yellow and
red ribbon of the Bavarian Order of
Saint Hubert and just below his
smartly cut white tie sparkled the
cross of a commander in the French
Legion d'Honneure.
Count Won Bradensee was apparent
ly good natured bon vivant, for he
sat there listening politely to the flow
of unconsequental gossip tumbling
from the Belgian minister's breath
less and fat little wife like coal from
chute.
Ian frowned. Good Lord, but Leon
ard was making a complete ass of
himself tonight! Wasn't like him,
either. He'd have to take the boy in
hand when they got home. Ilya, poor
child, would be completely miserable.
Really Monsieur, you are scarcely
flattering," he heard the rather sharp
voice of Senorita Martela saying in
edged banter. "You have not taken
your eyes from the Countess Won Wal
deck in five minutes. Do you think
she is so very pretty?"
"Eh? On, no, she's too blonde, too
brittle" Stock answer number three
to brunettes. What a bore all this
diplomatic business was. Had the Ar
gentine charmer been a blonde he
he would have said, "Oh no; dark
people depress me, and Miss So-and-
So, although she is beautiful is most
distressingly dark"
He barely tasted the delicious con-
somme, toyed with his souffle de vol
allie and felt increasingly annoyed at
himself. Why the duece did he find
himself looking once more at Lolita
Won Waldeck? He swiftly analysed
the impulse. 1t intrigued him to re-
concile her family sinister reputation,
with that singular gracious and whole
some looking young girl. Moreover,
he wanted to know why the this-and-
that Lolita Won Waldeck had cried so
bitterly to herself in the conserva-
tory? Why did she apparently re-
sent her escort-and what was he
to her? The fellow looked harmless
enough.
Deliberately he tore his eyes away
from those almost elfinly. delicate
features and it was then that he noted
for the first time, seated at the far
end of the table, bearded officer
who wore the elaborate, goldslashed
green uniform Of the Bulgarian Roy
al Guards. The expression ON the
Bulgar's wolfishly lean face was hard
as basalt, and there was a glitter in
his jet eyes that instantly challenged
Ian's attention.
On following the line of the Bull
garian's gaze the uneasy First Sec
rotary realized, with sense of shock, |
that this dangerously hostile glance
was bent on Leonard Holt, who, like
the infatuated pup he was, was at that
moment whispering some amusingI
nonsense into the invisible emerald
decked ear of Lolita Won Waldeck.
The irrepressible Argentine was
gushing something about polo. What
did he think?
Eyes, yes" murmured Ian aloud.

By JAMES w. BRENNAN
United Press Staff Correspondent

ST. CHARLES, Mo-, Aug. p.
(UP)-The house in which Daniel
Boone died is to be restored to
its original appearance.
Col. Francis Marion Curlac, Of
St. Louis, a direct descendant Of
BoOne's brother. John, is the pres
cnt owner. The stone house,
which changed hands many times,
was bought in 1904 by a farmer,
Henry Bollman. BoIlman sold it
to Colonel Cmlec in 1925.
BOone'S youngest son, Major
Nathan Boone, built the house in
1910, taking almost two years to
complete the job because the
plaster had to be buried during
the winter to "ripcn." All cutting
and finishing was done with an
adze.
The walls are two and a half
feet thick. Their extraordinary
thickness makes the house warm
in winter and cool in summer.
Most Of the furnishings Install
ed by Colonel Curlcc are repro
auctions, some originals, Of the
pioneers period.

pioneer had to strike out IN search
for new home foT Inc fourth
time in his career.
Boone returned To the scene of
his childnVUG, but left because of
the change worked by the swift
advance Of civilization. After a
short visit, the woodSman and his
family started Il 300-mile trek to
the mouth Of the Kanawha river,
which cmpties into the Ohio at
Point Pleasant. Here he built Il
log hut and remained until 1875.
During his sojourn at the Point,
hunters who visited Boone fired
him with dreams Of new land
TO explore beyond the Mississippi.
Boone again struck out for new
home.
WELCOMED BY SPANISH
The Spanish government, then
in possession Of the territory. and
eager to settle the land, welcomed
emigrants. Boonc'S fame preceded
him and he was accorded a warm
reception.
When Boone settled with his
son in the Femme Usage district
he had been Il subject or citizen
under five flags. Born before the
revolution, he lived his early life
subject of George II and George
III of England. After the revolu-
ton he became Il citizen of the
United States. He was at one
time a citizen Of the temporary
