The States Rights Problem
IN WASHINGTON


IF YOUR Hometown Report
L er is any judge, the question
of civil rights or states rights
will continue to plague the 81st
congress and the membership
of both political parties in the
months to come.
AS a matter of fact, there is an
apparent switch in party feeling on
the matter of states rights. The
Democratic party always has been
the traditional champion of states
rights, going back to the days Of
Thomas Jefferson, the party's found
er, who was a states rights man.
On the other hand, the Repub-
lican party, starting with JET
fersOn's bitter political enemy,
Alexander Hamilton, to whom
the COP traces its ancestry, has
since then favored strong fed
eral government. In recent
years, however, it seems to this
reporter that the two parties
have been confused in their
thinking on what constitutes
states rights and what COM
priSes civil rights.
And look at the records indi-
Gates a reversal of the historic posi-
tons Of the two parties, with the
Democrats tending to favor federal
action and the Republicans defend
ing states rights.
The civil rights program of Presi-
dent Truman, with which the Re-
publican party generally agrees, is
guaranteed under the constitution
and the Bill of Rights. Some Of the
southern states have assumed, how
ever, that some of these civil rights
are their own prerogative and
hence, as such, are under the head
of states rights. Of course that is
a wrongful assumption.
And some of the subjects which
have been classed under the head
ing of states rights such as tide
water lands, health, education,
credit control, taxes and national
defense which involve the problem
of states rights versus federal pow
er, are questionable as matter of
purely state jurisdiction.
In some of these issues the United
States supreme court has handed
down decisions holding, for instance,
that the matter of tidewater lands
is purely within the jurisdiction Of
the federal government.
1t is pretty well established
that education is purely state
question, but when states do not
provide education for all citizens
then this question arises: Shall
the federal government give aid
to the states on this question Of
education for the general wei.
fare, since all children are en-
titled to an education and an
educated citizenry is regarded
as a national safeguard?
Health is another question of fed
eral VS.. states rights. When the mat
ter of national safety is concerned
and 40 per cent of young men are
thrown back by examining boards
because of health disabilities, the
question arises. Does the fed
eral government have the power to
step in and provide health laws?

Who Controls What?

The federal reserve board recent
ly wanted to order all national banks
upon which it has jurisdiction to
tighten credit controls. But state
banks are not under it's jurisdiction.
So what happens then in the fight
to curb imitation? Does the federal
government have any right to step
in to control state chartered banks?
On taxes, the states have for sew
eral years maintained that the fed
eral government is usurping many
of their fields Of tax revenue-on
gasoline, on hosts of excise taxes
and on other individual commodi-
ties. Now the question of the nation
al guard has arisen. The guard has
been looked upon as state militia
in time of peace but is sworn into
federal service in time of war.
Then on this question of states
rights there arises the problem of
a clash in dual powers-state VS..
eederal-in production of public
power, reclamation, irrigation and
grazing lands.
Mr.. Dewey apparently wanted
less federal control. For in
stance, he favored state au-
thority to govern public power
on the st. Lawrence river and
he wanted less federal control in
any future river valley devel-
opments such as iva.
On the health question, President
Truman wants strong compulsory
federal health insurance program.
Sen. Robert Taft's bill is federal
bill but limited to grants to the
states.

Those Autumn Blues

Thoughts while strolling on
lazy Indian summer day-the fat,
sleek squirrels by the dozen in La
fayette park; the graceful spraying
fountains across the street on the
White House grounds-and with
leaves whirling up Pennsylvania
avenue there's not a leaf on the
well-tended lawn; the annual resod-
ding of the sunken lawn on the
Pennsylvania avenue side Of the
treasury building-it burns out ev-
cry summer.

 As all who have read the book must know, "The Razors Edge is the powerful and deeply probing story of one mans passionate search for true peace and inner content- ment, search that tore him from all love and sent him plunging into strange places half-way across the world And, too. it is the story of the woman who loved him, and of her desperate and ruthless plot to save him from himself and for herself.

Whitfield Is Winner,
 800 Meters
By TED SMITS

OLYMPIC DIUM, WEM- BLEY, England, August 2.-IR- Nal Whitefield, American Army Master Sergeant, showed his heels to the worlds fastest 800 meter man today to win one of the most coveted track championships of the Olympic games for the United States.
 The little Ohio State runner with the massive legs drew the pole position, Jagged in third place through the first lap. took the lead at the halfway point and fought off the challenge of the six-ioot, four-inch Arthur Wint of Jamaica to win by three yards.
 The American covered the dis tance of 874.9 yards in l:49.2 for an Olympic record, cutting six tenths of second off the pre- vious mark of l:49.8 set by Tom Hapson of England in an immort- , al race at Los Angeles in 1882.
