Thomas lctfcrslus first inaugural address II lAnl-
United States Supreme Court Justice Roberts should
have remembered those wise words Of jefferson when he
demanded The radio the other day powerful post

In this address from man who IS part Of the high
est judicial body Ii the land haze this astounding ~
yitation to give up our sovereignty nation;
The vital thing Is that they e-penple4 shall
wish and demand the fundamental basis of inter
national cooperation the POOLING OF SO MUCH OF
THE SO-CALLED SOVEREIGNTY as is essential to
united action those questions which unsettled as
between nations, breed war.
MOTE the sheer in the phrase +-S0-cAttED SoVER-

That CATS into question our very independence al

For the United States TO enter a superstate would
be TO rcpudiae all that we are fighting for this
For that IS just what Hitler advocates - a world

1t comes to us in the dcCoy phrases of inter

But the sinister meaning of this scheme is as plain
today as it always has been, whether in ancient Rome
or in Hitlers Germany and Lenn's Russia
And Justice Roberts may well know now as later
that the socaled sovereignty of these United States
is NOT "s0-called" but is FACTUAI.
It has been factual for $50 years, and will not be
yielded up the sovereignty of an all-absorbng
'supcr-state until Congress and the people say
And that is not likely to be in this century.

From your standpoint, can

almost inevitable upon his part.

BY WESTBROOK PEGLER

MRS. ELEANOR ROOSE-
AVA WELT has been prophetic
so often in the past that It
would he unwise 10 overlook a
proposal which she put forth
in her column on Tuesday.
In this essay, discussing the
so-called anti-strike bill passed
by Congress, Mrs. Roosevelt
suggests that ina smuc h as
unions have now been forbidden
to contribute further to cam
paign funds in elections involv-
ing federal office. the national
government should limit the
amount of money 10 be spent
by candidates and ration adver-
Using space and radio time,
equally among them.
II think II would he n great
step forward Mrs, Roosevelt
wrote, III the government al
lowed all candidates 10 spend
exactly the same amount, gave
them Sn much time on the radio,
40 much newspaper advertising
space and 81 much cash Tor
travelling and actually meeting
people.

T BELIEVE that this is the
Il holdest attack on the Ameri-
can form Of government that
has Net been made ny any tet-
loW-traveler in the New Deal
administration. II is more dan
gerouS because Mrs. Roosevelt
is herself tireleSS, cunning and
clever politician. who is the
more effective because she pre-
tends 10 be utterly naive and
10 have no influence in the gov
eminent, whereas she has made
many appointments and has die
tated several radHal policies re-
Celvcd from clements of the
Communist front.
One Of these was the So 0O0
salary limitation first proposed
ny the Communist Party as
platform proviSo.
The President FASTENED 10
propose this limitation 70 Con
EreSs and was twice rebuffed
and then proceeded 10 limit sal
aries 70 the Communists figure

In that case. Congress re-
voked his decree and Congress
undoubtedly would do the same
If Mrs. Roosevelt. through ex-
ecutive order or ny other per-
cmptory means. should attempt
10 impose the limitations on
free elections which she now
advises Thus her proposal IS
not immincntly dangerous, but
il does show what Mrs RooSo-
welt has in mind, and on the
basis Of past performances prob
ably tells MS what tho Commu-
niSIS IN and around tho govern
ment are cooking for the people
Of this free republic.
Under this plan. President
u Roosevelt would he allowed

treasury for his fourth term

country on continuous political
errandS disguised as war aCtivl-

The other candidate would he
allowed a like amount. but the
President would have his off
