munist empire give these damaging
indictments the fullest possible
coverage.
Obviously, if this disadvan-
tageOus trend is to be righted, all
citizens, members of the Congress,
public officials, journalists, re-
porters and commentators included
have a responsibility to avoid
exaggeration, partisan statements
and criticism not supported by clear
evidence. To do otherwise is to
provide, unwittingly, propaganda
which may be used to our detri-
ment. Moreover in terms of the
national welfare, our presently
confused and disjointed prop
uganda, information and psyche
logical warfare activities must be
up-graded and coordinated at a
high level of government. And, in
all of this, national as we'll as
individual discretion and restraint
must be exercised.

Along The Potomac
With Your Congressman
DEWITT S. HYDE

A major portion of the work of
the House last week was devoted
to consideration of a bill (HR. 81
designed to lay down guide lines
for the Interpretation of congress
sional legislation by the courts
and the people. The bill is made
necessary, l believe, by such Su-
preme Court decisions as that in
the Steve Nelson case where Fed
eral law has been held to take the
place of and render imperative
State law on the same subject.
The bill, as passed by the House,
concerns itself with acts of Con-
gress dealing with powers which
may be exercised by the States
until the Federal Government sees
fit to act in the same field. In
such instances, whether or not the
Federal law occupies the field to
the exclusion of State law is a
question of the intent of Congress.
HR.3 says that such is not the
intent unless Congress express
ly says so in the law or unless
there is such a conflict between
the Federal and State law so
that the two cannot be reconciled
or consistently stand together.
1t was argued that this bill
would throw into uncertainty all
the existing laws in this field. The
answer is that their status is un-
certain with or without this bill.
Can anyone say, with respect to
such State and Federal laws that
have not been to the Supreme
Court, what their status will be.
If anything, this bill will make
such laws more certain of accurate
Interpretation.

Bold Relief Of Our Times

Bold Relief of Our Times
The daily conduct of the Ameri-
can people has become grist for
the propaganda mills of unfriendly
nations. Our slightest transgres-
sion imprudent actions, irresolute
policies, and partisan squabbles
have been employed, with consid-
cradle impact, to portray the U.
S. in an unfavorable light Any
uncommon or eccentric behavior
pattern is depicted as typically
American.
While at the Brussels Fair on
the Fourth of July, former Presi-
dent Herbert Hoover placed this
phenomena in bold relief in these
words: There can be no inter-
probation of the American way of
life in its effect upon other nations
without reference to the false
legends, Misrepresentation and
vicious propaganda which haunt
the free world. These miSrep-
reservations and this propaganda
are melting physical attacks upon
American citizens, upon our Of
