NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
NOT MUCH PRESS DISTURBANCE

Whether The Montgomery Advertiser which
writes at length about the presidents plan to save
the country with more and better and younger
judges is for or against it we cannot yet affirm,
and likewise we are puzzled by clever editorial
in The Asheville Citizen. In The Atlanta Consti-
tuition is nothing revolutionary the subject and
in The Columbia State nothing so far at all that
we have described The Greenville News is trepi-
dainty dubious in willowesque sentences but eyes
if anything askance, and The Greenvie Piedmont
is Ave or ten degrees advanced toward indigant
opposition. The Florence Morning News speaks
according to the pitch and volume of its voice in
unmistakable favor of the presidents opinions,
which is abundantly creditable to its candor.
All this is no matter The five billion dollar pub
lie works plan and the continuation of relief and
multfarious offices matter. Now is the time for
all good men to come to the aid of the party in
spending peoples money.-Charleston News and
Courier.

SILENT

Secretary Perkins had nothing to say when strk-
ers violated the terms of injunction granted by
a federal judge.
She was quick to criticize when employers reject
ed proposal; she was silent when strikers violat-
ed not only the law but the ruling of federal
tribunal
From this distance presume, however, that
employers were delighted when the "sitdowners'
continued to sit.
Such action is certain to have an unfavorable
reaction with the public and without public support
the strikers can get nowhere. '. -
But Secretary Perkins adds nothing to the pres.
tige Of her office when she denounces one group
for merely rejecting her proposal while remaining
quiet when another group defes the law-Concord

Jackson is the lawyer who re-

is getting around that he also is
an important but unobtrusive
member of the inner circle of

Worst and Immediately to the
point, jackson has just warned
his legal brethren that if they
keep on cluttering up the path of
national progress, they may lose

it is rather the fact that the statute was
set aside at all"
"The transparency of the president
argument" says Lawrence, may be seen Ill
the first reason he gives for enlargement
of the court. That is the alleged conees-
ton of the courts dockets. If six justices
over 70 years are forced to retire ana SIN
Roosevelt appointees succeed Them no"
will that facilitate the transaction OF busi-
ness or aid in clearing the dockets Inc
Court will still consist of nine men. IL Is
also the established practice for the entire
Court to hear all cases. How would the
addition of six new justices accelerate
court business if the nine old men renamed
members of the court? All cases would
then come before Is instead of judges.
1.-The real objection is not to the age OF
the judges" says Lawrence; and ne con-
cludes with discussion of "usurpation in
law-making by the executive"
$50 much of rubber stamp affair has
our legislative body become that the Presl-
dent this time sent along with his message
an exact draft of the bill he wants passed
1t had been supposed that legislative pow
er was vested in Congress; but since the
last election it may be inferred that Mr..
Roosevelt feels he has mandate to write
legislation and send it to Congress with
demand for its prompt enactment, says
Mr.. Lawrence, who adds to his discussion
these paragraphs:
There can only be tragedy ahead for the Ameri-
can RepubHc if it accepts such usurpation without
protest Mr. Roosevelt's attitude can only mean
consolidation of all three branches of our govern
ment under one head. Wrote Thomas jefferson:
ga single consolidated government would be-
come the most corrupt government on earth.
What has destroyed the liberty and the rights OF
man in every government which has existed under
the sun? The generalizing and concentrating all
cares into one body.
"Tt is not by the consolidation or concentration
If powers but by their distribution that good gov
eminent is effected
1t may be that highly centralized government
is what the American people want at the moment.
1t may be that they prefer the will of one man to
the judgments of nine or fifteen justices OF even
5Sl members of Congress. But if consolidation of
the legislative executive, and judicial branches of
the government does come, it will not remain for
long
"The people will insist on making such a govern
ment more directly responsive to popular will They
will not permit fixed tenure for presidents of
four or even six years nor will they wish fixed
tenure for members of the House and Senate
They will seek to protect themselves in the only
way that true democracies have been able to as
sure themselves against tyranny-they will want
a system of recall written into the Constitution so
that in specific issues such as the present proposed
change in the number of the Supreme Court JUS
tees there could be referendum of the people.
Democracy is never in danger when additional
methods of letting the people decide issues are
provided Democracy is always in danger when
resort to subterfuge is preferred to an open pro-
lection of fundamental question before the cleo
torate."

man VINO tells Jne WHOle WOIlu
where to go and where to get off,
vet who is as meek as a lamb
around his wife, there's a reason.
1t is almost worth to the wife
what it has cost her. A wise wo-
man uses her husbands philandcr-
ing to put twitch on his upper
lip for life. 81 thought you were
more than a man when | married
you," she says, "but / find you
are merely man, so | shall make
the best of it and the most of il"
So he becomes her slave for life,
which was what he emotionally
talked Of being when he proposed
to her yet never expected really
to be.
AS the flu cannot get hold on
q person who has sufficient ply
Seal resistance, so the illicit in
|fatuation disease cannot develop
in the person who has sufficient
spiritual resistance. But once it
gets going, it must, like the flu,
run its course. Sometimes the
course can be shortened by effec-
tive treatment such as a severe
jolt which jars the bewitched per-
son out of the spell he is under.
The wise wife who understands
the frailties of masculine nature
and who can keep her head, can
usually also keep her husband.
She can save him from the siren
and himself. She can do him a
great spiritual service. She can
make him better husband than
ever. And by herself being faith
full unto death, she can win the
priceless crown of life.

DRY FARMING
TOO COSTLY,

international Ne"B
"Dry farming" as now prac'
ticed in the drought-ridden great
plains of the west, cannot be sus'
tanned year in and year out, a
report issued today by the Works
Progress Administration declared.
Changes, or abandonment OF
present practices, are essential in
many instances, said the report,
prepared by the research division
of WPA in cooperation with the
Bureau of Agricultural Economics
and the ReSettlement Administra'
ton.
The cost to the Government Of
efforts to make a living out OF the
dry-land areas of the West has
ranged from $50 per person to
more than SITS per person in 8O3
counties of the West since 1888,
the report said.
The costs to the Government in
cluded direct relief, work relief,
the AAA benefit payments, and
the ReSettlement Administration S
grants to destitute farmers.
The report covered surveys OF II
counties in Minnesota; in Iowa,
81; Missouri, IA; North Dakota,
So; South Dakota, SO; Nebraska
95; Kansas, 105; Oklahoma, IT;
Texas, 101; Montana, Sc; Wyom-
ing, 1e; Colorado, At, and New
Mexico, 81. The report said:
drought is not unusual in
this area. From earliest settle
ment, its development has been
interrupted by the relentless
plague of moisture deficiency.
The greater part of the region
