dairy products was never over the
ccnsumptive demand and that there
is always q place fCr dairyin9 in
the economic life CT tie nation.
AT the present time, said, lower
federal demand is so Per cent, al

heavy burden on future genera
tions since the tax plu5 interest
plus the cost of administration will
amount to a tremendous sum.
Green stated that the executive
branch of the government is bent
on changing the economic basis Of
the nation and that to prevent
such changes, appeals should be
made TO the states representatives

WE
the Women
By RUTH rITLLETT

A soldier in New York is sent
overseas, and his young wife PICKS
up their baby and starts the long
trip to her father ..cme in the
Middle West.
An officer is ordered 10 q new
post, and his wife and three small
children follow him as soon as he
is located
A skilled worker gets job in
war plant, and when he has found
living quarters his wife and 20
months-old baby face hard train
trip to join him,
Railroad stations and trains are
filled with weary young mothers
carrying babies and leading tod
dlers by the hand. In ordinary
times they would stay put but
now they either travel or live
apart from their men.
And though i'll even the smaller
towns, clubwomen meet trains to
give doughnuts and coffee to SOL
diers and speed them on their way
not much has been done to make
things easier for the war worker S
or fighters wife who is travelling
with a baby or small child.
Yet it would be quite simple for
a Woman's club in every town to
! take over the job of helping out
the mother who is. travelling with
an infant or small child.
Most OF the trouble that a young
mother with a baby encoNpters is
connected with getting on AND off
and changing trains.
Hard as it is to get porters\ in
most places now, a mother oftAn
/ has to carry a baby in one arm and
/ its necessary travelling equipment
/ in the other. And often a young
mother has to manage a frisky 2
or 3-year-old as we'll as an infant.
A WORTHY PROJECT
So it would be a good idea for
] the clubWomcn of a town looking
for a worthwhile project to work
j out a system whereby one or hall
a dozen of them, depending on the
size of the town, would be in the
station all during the day and
until midnight - ready to help
mothers on and off trains and
watch their babies while they send
kilograms, get a bote to eat, or get
a little rest.
An arm band could identify
them. and they might fix up q
corner of the Women's rest room
in small stations as a corner foi
children.
There is plenty of hospitality ano
help available to soldiers and war
workers on the move, but not YET
much help for their young wives
travelling with babies.

There were a number OF hard
boiled, anti-internationalists among
the reporters In the room and some
were a little cynical in their atti-
tude. But they agreed that Ball was
sincere, that he was taking the step
he took not because Of. but in spite
Of, politics. OF course, he comes
from a state where they aren't quite
so adamant about party lines and
he won't be up for election himself
for four years anyway. When he
was asked If he hoped to run again
on the Republican ticket he said he
did but that depended on what atti-
tude the party in Minnesota took.
All during that conference there
wasn't a word asked about the issue
behind the issue-the step which this
country has to take, the decision 1t
has to make regarding our own pol
icy toward extending the powers
over the use Of our armed forces to
another organ beside congress. And
I think it might be well to take up
point by point the Ball-Roosevelt-

what issues are involved.

Constitutional
Procedure InuoiUed

This is generally interpreted as
meaning:
Cd Congress would pass law
stating that If the American repre-
sentative on the Security Council felt
that American military forces with
those of other members OF the Or
ganization) should be used against
an aggressor he had the power to
commit this government to order
such support, In other words, to en-
ter into what might amount to war,
later on.
90 Congress would likewise pass
a law permitting the majority vote
of the Security Council to supersede
the vote Of the American represent
alive, to use American land other)
military forces against an agrees
sor.
AS to point two, if the Russians
had their choice as expressed in the
conferences at Dumbarton Oaks this
clause would not be effective--they
argue that no step should be taken
by the council without the unani-
nous agreement Of the great pow
ers. In other words, the single vote
of the representative of Britain,
Russia, China and the United States,
at least, could veto any step pro-
posed.
But the representatives Of Great
Britain and the United States at
Dumbarton Oaks said that they
were both willing to make majority
rule the basis Of action. 1t is con-
ceivable that If Russia were con-
WINGED that the United States was
Fundamentally in the organization,
she would come around to that view.
So far the question of the constitu-
tionality Of law which would arm
the American delegate to the Sc
curity Council with the necessary
powers, has not been debated. The
New York Times points out that the
Constitution designates to congress
the unique power to declare war,
except when American territory Is
invaded. but does not state that the
use Of force cannot be delegated.
In any case the chief question is
whether the people will have the
courage to venture into this new
realm wherein the United States
government would accept the ma.
jority wishes Of group Of world
states, just as we accept the wishes
Of the majority Of congress.

When the last election bet Is col

eide whether he would support Dew
ey until he had heard both presiden-
tial candidates speak on the subject.
He listened to two one-half-hour
speeches by Dewey and then, after
the one by Roosevelt before the For
eign Policy association, said he
would support Roosevelt because
Roosevelt met "squarely and un-
equivocally the two vital and con-
troversial issues on which the isola-
tionists kept us out of the League
of Nations and will fight our entry
into the United Nations security or
ganization. He insisted that the
United Nations organization be
formed without delay, before hostili-
ties cease, and that it be granted
power to use military force against
future aggressors without requiring
individual approval of each men,
Der nation"
Senator Ball went on to say that
Governor Dewey has opposed de.
lay but has not met squarely the
second vital issue. He has spoken
for strong international security
organization, but in each speech has
so worded his commitment that
both internationalists and isolation
lists could find comfort and support
in what he said
