MO MORE high handed abuse of executive au-
~ thority has been seen in this country since the
advent of the New Deal than the taking over Of
Montgomery Ward & Co.'S Chicago plant by the
army.
It is doubtful whether in the history of the
country there could be found, in war or in peace,
any act that closely borders on supra constl-
tutional dictatorship.
Montgomery Ward Co. is not engaged in war
production.
THE attorney general in his labored defense OF
executive power in the military seizure OF
great American business points to the fact that
small subsidiary of Montgomery Ward the Hum
mer Manufacturing Co. of Springfield, Ill, is
making parts for military warplanes.
Why, then, rUas the seizure not kept Within
the limits of Springfield, If there had to be a
seizure at all?
The attorney general reviews at great length
the labor dispute between the War Labor Board
and Montgomery Ward
But this labor matter, in the eyes of all clear
THE vital matters at issue are these:
l. Can the President of the United States and
the department of commerce order the army to take
ouer any legitimate business because that business
has a dispute rUith union?
Are "executiUe orders" to take the place of iatO
tn the United States
. Are businesses not specifically engaged in Ddr
production-and Montgomery Ward is MOTTO
function under martial ldtD tDhen commanded to
do so from Washington?
. Is the Bill of Rights to be strapped in the in
the mask of aiding the efort?"
Is this seizure by methods smelling strongly OF
proceedings IN Germany and Russia trial
balloon" for future activities of the army directed
by Executive orders" and bolstered up by long
minded decisions of compliant attorney general?
THOSE are the tremendous questions at stake in
l. the seizure of the Montgomery Ward plant
This astounding action will bring into focus
as it has never done before the whole question of
New Deal ukases and New Deal bureaucracy.
1t ought also to bring home once again to the
American people the real issues to be fought out at
the polls next November.
Those issues are now dominantly, in view of
the seizure by the government of great business
in Chicago.
