Even i! it is held that I cannot a* n levy after I have made it it should develop that I have light to make it, that still would affect counties' right to make }ch a levy.” Commissioner Longi- quoted the Governor as saying. | Mr. C.

Indeed there are but few of cur Presidents who have not had emergencies that made them skirt dangerously the constitutional limits. There was grave question as to Washington’s authority to make war on the Pennsylvania whiskey rebels. Jcf.’crson cheerfully admitted the uncanstituticnal implications of the Louisiana Purchase but declared it a necessary act in furtherance of the Nation’s safety and progress. Jackson, when the Supreme Court ruled on the question of settlers on land to the possession of which they had no constitutional right, grimly commented: “John Marshall has rendered a decision now let him en force it." The Supreme Court ob viously has no army to carry out Its edicts, and must leave that to the executive who Is commander-in- chief of the military Borces. Lincoln feught with practically his whole cabinet over the constitution ality of the Emancipation Proclama tion. In his debate with Douglas, the latter sounded a mouth-filling note about responded that it suggested to him a man on the creek-side, standing with one foot on the bank and the other on a floating log.

The peo ple should have power to deal with record in this respect should be kept clear and not be made a part of A political issue.” ed the act, though 1 have a lay man’s hazy impression that there Ir something in the Constitution rela tive to ex-postfacto laws. None cf those things meant that historic heroes were unpatriotic, stubbornly seif-opinionated or bent on unsurpation. or that the great Justices of those times were unlearn ed in the law or indifferent to the welfare of the American people. The answer is that the members oC the great court felt bound by what they construed to be compelling limita tions and acted accordingly. Incidentally, history does not re cord that there resulted from these historic clashes any chaos in Gov ernment; any breaking down of the American system: any disordering of the national destiny. The country rocked along as comfortably, or more comfortably, than it did be fore. The rine-Justices court of to day, for e sample, functions the same way as the seven-Justices court of th * pre-Grant period, and who is theic that remembers the dark forebodings of his enemies that accompanied the act of the great soldier in the White House?

Jthe NRA and the AAA decisions, it Tirana! Grant Used Another Method, lacks, which would be perfectly President U. S. Grant, confronted regular. but would take all the time with a constitutional interpretation contrary to what he deemed for the best interests of the country, solved the difficulty by apointing two ad ditional members of the Supreme Court, who conformed to his view. Eminent lawyers have told me that when IVesident Hoover in the absence of Congress granted Eng land, France, Italy and the other embarrassed nations a moratorium oi» their war debts to our Govern ment he did not have a constitution al leg to stand on. He might have called a special session of Congress, j Supreme Court has changed and the but tha.‘ involved long and heated views of Jurtkes Stone. Brandei: debates, and no certainty that a people, exasperated by the over-seas involved in getting such an amend ment adopted by a two-thirds vote of Congress and ratified by three- quarters of the states. Now I have not the remotest ides whether the President’s mind is run ning cn constitutional amendment*- or not the farmers’ hands that would satisfy the Supreme Court. Or, it may be that the lift from the un constitutional blessings they have received will tide the farmers over for r. while, at least—perhaps to a time when the completion of the agitation for defaulting the debts would not register so clamorous an opposition as to peril the result in Congress. .Mr. Hoover felt that to insist on a continuance of debt pay ments at that time would have played havoc with the fiscal situa tion abroad, with a vicious reaction awn country, and probably right Congress, when it formally asstmblcd later on, validat- and Cardozo may be the views o£ a majority. In any event they, as well as in dustry, have had a couple of years’ respite (ram despair because the President failed to forecast how the Supreme Court would divide on the AAA question. The impetus of those twe years will prolong the period for a greeter or shorter time. Meanwhile the farmers have the privilege of distress at having been the benfidari.s of something uncon stitutional—if they feel that wav. Mechanics Who Know How No guess work in our shop.

Breedlove of Monroe, thr two dele gates invited by Secretary Wallace to represent Georgia cotton farm- ot the recent conference of farmers in Washington, have re turned to the state. Aifter the gen eral conference of farmers from all parts cf the nation on January 10 and 11, they remained in Washington for several days to discuss with rep resentatives of the entire cotton belt the situation which confronts cotton farmers with the planting season only thirty days away. In a prepared statement for the press. Statham and Breedlove said: “Some delay must elapse before legislation can be prefected to make effective the policy outlined and agreed upon by the nation’s farm leaders called by Secretary Wallace. In the meantime, cotton farmers must make plan* for the coming season. Any disposition on the part of farmers to give up the fight will be fatal to the South We Have every confidence that the best interests of agriculture will be protected in forthcoming legis lation and that provisions will made in a crcp adjustment Program calling for approximately the reduction in cotton acreage a provided in the proposed 1936 Pro gram as Invalidated by the Supreme Court. If we hold the ground thus fn gained, there can be no Increase In cotton acreage over that contemplat ed in the proposed 1936 contract. We appeal to the farmers of Geor gia to make plans in accordance with the acreage reduction of 30 to 45 per cent which was called for in the 1936 contract. If this be done, all cctton farmers in Georgia will be in position to cooperate in the new program and share equit ably in its benefits." Mr. Statham and Mr. Breedlove point to the fact that it will require new legislation by Congress to set an effective Program into operation. Members of the Georgia delegation in Congress will, no doubt, be anx ious to know the opinion cf the cot- farmers in Georgia as to wiiat legislation the> desire and how ] FOR RENT—3 promptly they wish such legislation Allen’s Invalid Ho enacted. 1B2. w.
