More Income Tox Blues
Don't Count on Thot Constitutional Convention,
To Set Is Per Cent Limit on the Levy
BY Jock Jonos

The United States seems deceptive
~ close to summoning it's first con-
stitutional convention since the
founding fathers got together in
1877. Twenty-eight Of the 80 State
votes necessary to cali such a conven-
tion have been passed. The specific
amendment which the States have
asked Is one limiting income taxes to
25 per cent.
But the time has not yet come to
take the prospect for such a consti-
tutional convention very seriously.
There is q jungle Of legal problems
standing In the way, and few seem to
think 1t can be cleared. At the root
Of the problem is o loosely worded
constitutional provision which says:
The Congress. whenever two.
thirds Of both houses shall deem It
necessary, shall propose amendments
to this Constitution. or, on applica-
tion Of the Legislatures Of two thirds
OF the several States. shall call q con-
vention for proposing amendments,
which In either case shall be valid
to all intents and purposes as part
OF this Constitution, when ratified
by the Legislatures Of three -fourths
Of the several States, or by conyen-
tionS In three-fourths thereof, as the
one or the other mode Of ratification
may be proposed by the Congress"
Seven Stotes Desist
Stats Of two congressional COM
mittees In touch with the problem
say that only IS Of the 20 State re-
quests for convention remain In
effect. And therein lies just one
source for the legal tussle that would
result II constitutional convention
were seriously considered.
Seven Of the States, q staff report
says. have reScinded their calls for a
convention. Can they legally do this?
Courts have ruled that although
States can rescind disapproval of a
constitutional amendment. they can
not reScind approval. Would the
same apply to call for convention?
In some States. the staff report
continues. Governors have vetoed
convention resolutions. Can this be
done? On constitutional amend
ments. the courts have held that
Governors cannot veto rejection or
approval. Some authorities insist
that once a call for a convention is
made by State, it continues in
effect, until convention is called.
Under this thinking, requests which
have been made as early as 1882
would still be in effect. If this the
ory were accepted, Congress could
call a convention any time it felt
like it.
This view, however, is not general
~ held, although it was used by pro-
ponents OF repeal when it looked as
If Congress were not going to seek
repeal of the 18th amendment.
Who Would Attend?
All these legal quibblings would be
mere leaks in the dixie compared with
the hoodgates of argument which
would open if a convention were
actually called. In the first place,
who would make up the convention?
Convention implies delegates. But
would the delegates be elected by
the people? Or, perhaps, by the
Legislatures? Or would they be ap-
pointed by the Governor, or named by
some other means?
Who would foot the bill? Would

Some Won't Like 1t
It will displease a lot Of people it
is designed to reform. 1t doubtless
will arouse occasionally justified COM
plants that some of the accounts
are one-sided and some Of the judg-
ments rest too heavily on personal
opinion.
Others may even remark on the
coincidence that the book comes out
in presidential election year. al
though it obviously was planned
many months ago and had to stop
just as some Investigations were
beginning to hit pay dirt.
The disturbing change in Govern
ment, which Mr.. Bolles traces through
committee inquiry transcripts and Of
ficial reports, affects more than the
pocketbooks Of the people and the
generous Treasury of the United
States. He finds that 1t strikes at
the very principle of equality before
the law, the concept of responsibility
of public servants and duty of the
public itself to denounce influence
peddling. favor-seeking and corner
cutting Of the law.
"The welfare state" he writes, "is
undergoing a subtle change into a
rich mans welfare state, aiding
those who don't need help or who
don't deserve it at public expense.
-. Agencies created to end privilege
have become bulwarks of privilege.
-. The strongest advocates of pri-
vate enterprise insist that Govern
ment must provide the money to help
them remain private. Washing
ton has become for us what Wall
Street was for our parents. The
New Dealers who made the most of
the idea Of social responsibility did
not produce philosophy strong and
flexible enough to be adapted easily
to good times. :. The golden key in
Washington is friendship. A
mans word Tin getting favors, bene-
fits or shortcuts with Government
help is as good as his bond, or per-
hapS better. -"
Borderline Bombordment
Besides dealing with what he con-
siders 10 be downright hrazen crook
edness. Mr.. Bolles bombards border
line cases and practices plagued by
''vagueness about ethics and casual
administration" And he seldom
is at loss for potent phrases to
blast the general public's mood of
tolerance" of such conditions and at
titudeS.
AS lavish source Of extra legal
favors," Washington really is not a
place where great many people can
make fortunes. Mr. Bolles concludes.
But he adds: Many nevertheless can
wrest fancy living from the Capt.
tall"
Mr.. Bolles win hardly lack for
readers-in Washington. at least. His
book win be read from many varied
points Of view. but It IS not likely to
BE- ignored.
