Under the Articles of Confedera-
ton the government was a demo-
cratic republic, a LOOSE UNION
OF INDEPENDENT COMMON
WEALTHS, A CONFEDERACY
OF SOVEREIGN STATES. And
SO the Articles were set aside and
the Constitution of the United
States was adopted on September
II, 1889 The Constitution then
formed was meant to be perma-
[nent until changed by the people
of the United States. It was meant
to be the supreme law of the land,
and intended to secure to all the
citizens alike their inalienable
rights as freemen. The Federal
Constitution and government were
to be the great center, whence all
power is derived for the national
government. The state govern
ments and the state constitutions
were given sufficient power to pre-
vent the concentration of all pow
er to this federal center.
No other governments before
ours had such a written constitu-
ton or in fact written constitu-
ton at all. They had only laws
passed by their legislative depart
ments, which could be changed at
pleasure.

The feeling trat Korea is not

Of the United Nations as the

doubtedly registered a revival
OF American nationalism versus
U. N. internationaiism, despite
the fact that the President

have to reckon with.
The dimming Of the Roosevelt

the Democratic Party could
stay in power only as long as
the Roosevelt myth remained
untarnished. Even among people
who voted for F. D. r. four times

In the meantime Mao became

The Chinese Red leader has
had the temerity to consider
himself as an ally rather than
a puppet of the Kremlin. When
he went to Moscow in the winter
of 1850 he seemed to have all
the trump cards in his hand. He
had won a great military victory
over the Nationalists and had
won a diplomatic victory by
having the Red regime recog-
nized by Great Britain without
China returning the compli-
ment. He had also received
definite assurances that Wash
ington would follow in London'S
footsteps as soon as the Ameri-
can Government could do so. He

vinced that he was to be the
