IF the government goes TOO Tar

sooner or later have 10 guarantee

capital cannot pay wares unless
they are earned. with something
10 spare for profits and interest
The next result would he an
experiment in government opera
ton But does any one imagine
that bv substituting the govern
ment for the private enterpriser
and investor, the claims Of all
these different interests will magi-
cally disappear or be settled?
What about the taxpayers and
bondholders7
My suggestion is TO keep re-
conversion out of politics. and TO
deal with il A. the social problem
Of encouraging a quick return 10
free private enterprise when
peace comes.

der the 14th or 18th Amendments.
Since Grovey VS.. Townsend and
prior to the present suit, no case
from Texas involving primary cleo

We did decide, however, United
States VS.. Classic. We there held
that Section 4 OF Article l of the
Constitution authorized Congress to
regulate primary as we'll as general
elections, where the primary is by
law made an integral part of the
election machinery" =" BY this
decision the doubt as to whether or
not such primaries were a part of
elections" subject to Federal con-
troll, which had remained unan-
swered since Newberry VS.. United
States, was erased. The Nixon
cases were decided under the equal
protection clause of the 14th
Amendment without a determina-
ton Of the status Of the primary as
a part Of the electoral process. The
exclusion Of Negroes from the pri-
maries by action of the State was
held invalid under that amendment
The fusing by the Classic case OF
the primary and general elections
into single instrumentality for
choice Of officers has definite bear

Constitution Of excluding Negroes
from primaries. This is not to say
that the Classic case cuts directly
into the rationale Of Grovey VI.
Townsend. This latter ease vas not
