Benson President, National Education Program No one denies that the U. S. Supreme Court is rapidly finding its way into the social, political and economic affairs of American citizens in a manner that has in¬ creasing impact. This apparent in¬ tention to reach decisions in touchy, controversial areas in a “creative” manner rather than necessarily constitutionally should eventually bring limitations upon the Court in order to keep the Court itself from functioning in an unconstitutional way. Unquestionably this new era of bold initiative on the part of the Court has arrived partly because of failure by tbe states (and people and organizations within them) to accept responsibility. At least, some feel that Supreme Oourt interest in civil rights problems came be* cause the states and local communi¬ ties had not made the progress that might have been expected. Likewise, in the legislative appor¬ tionment decision, this was an area in which the states were doing very little to correct abuses. DANGERS TO FACE “One man, one vote” may sound like a good, basic principle of democratic government. Inequities in representation have needed cor¬ rection, to be sure. But govern¬ ment by the people will not be achieved merely because everybody has equal representation. A new absolutism could allow new power alignments to develop in the nation’s urban centers to a degree that will make our states more subservient to the federal govern¬ ment tlhan ever before. If this happens, the individual American will be worse off than 'he was. The American system has some¬ how diffused its power in attain¬ ing protection for both majority and minority, and has provided for most of the necessary adjustments between the diverse elements and interests in the society. But there may be dangers ahead. If we have at times had to fear the tyranny of the few, we should be aware that tyranny of the mass might be even worse. What new boss-system in city-states, for example, have we in our future? Will we elect U.S. Senators by cities? Will urban power produce a heightened feder¬ al centralization? FREEDOM TO MANAGE Government partiality to labor organizations has already become characteristic of the new political alignments. Congress, federal boards, the president, and the federal courts have all become eager to err on the side of labor. If the Supreme Court continues to allow the present trend, decisions through the next few years may seem to strengthen the mass. But they will surely weaken liberties and freedoms of individuals and institutions. This fall the Court will hear a case in which a Cali fomia company may be told whether or not it has freedom to manage its own affairs. Up through National Labor Re¬ lations Board arid U. S. Court of Appeals rulings favoring the United Steelworkers, the Fibreboard Corp. has been told that it cannot make decisions about its business that may result in loss of jobs. This is based on federal law that re¬ quires bargaining "with respect to wages, hours, and other terms arid conditions of employment.” In brief, the company had decided after studying maintenance costs that it would contract the work out to another firm at an annual sav¬ ings of $225,000. The move cost 75 employees their jobs and the com¬ pany a charge of unfair labor prac¬ tices. mythology of change If the Supreme Court should find for the union, then a great many business deicsions that com¬ panies make will have to be pro¬ cessed through bargaining with their unions. In that case, the company points out, “the pace at which an employer does business, will be limited to the pace set in bargaining by the union or unions with which he deals.” The fact that this decision has to be made by the high court suggests a woe¬ ful misunderstanding of the Ameri¬ can pattern of individual responsi¬ bility and freedom of decision. Implicit in many of the Court’s Cook Soys Split Vote Is Acceptable Can Democrats remain Democrats and still support Republican presi¬ dential candidate Barry Golld water? Atty. Gen. Eugene Cook said Thursday a Georgian can split hi9 ballot i— supporting Goldwater and Democratic candidates for other offices. Several state officials, however, saild ballot-splitting has been a popular practice in north Georgia for several years. They supported Cook’s stand ttxat ballot splitting is legal. The attorney general issued hi9 statement in answer to a querry Claude M. Phillips of Quit man. As proof, he cited two sections of the elections code approved last month by a special legislative ses¬ sion. Cook also sent Phillips a copy of the new law. — Atlanta Times. Stote Plans to Let Bids On Road Work More than 15 miles of Atlanta’s perimeter route is expected to be let for construction this year, the State Highway Department an¬ nounced Wednesday. The contracts will be let for two projects — one for 9.6 miles and the other for 6.2 miles. Total cost is estimated $17 mil lion. The first section will extend from Gordon Road south to Red Oak Road in southwest Atlanta. The other will extend north from Interstate 20 to Ponce de Leon Avenue in northewest Atlanta. Atlanta now has 53.7 miles of interstate highways open. Another 25.4 miles is under construction arid 35.5 miles of construction has to be started. — Atlanta Times. nTTTTT Medicinal Plants Today considerable research into the use of native and foreign plants for their medicinal properties is being conducted', largely because recent finds have become extreme¬ ly useful. Such discoveries frequently arise from seemingly useless home reme¬ dies and mystic concoctions by “medicine men.” As examples may be cited Rauwolfia serpentina, Snake Root, from which Reserpine is derived for use in treatment of 'high blood pressure and emotional disturbances. Digitalis was isolated from an old Shropshire brew that contained Foxglove, Digitalis purpurer and has long been a remedy for heart ailments. Among others may be listed ephedrine from Eplhedra sp. from China, Colchicine, a gout medicine, is derived from seeds and norms of Autumn CJroculs, Colchicum autumnale, False Helle¬ bore, (Veratrun sp.) is another source of a remedy for high blood pressure. Other examples of discoveries that were based on research into herbal medicines and native “cures” from various countries are Quinine, Codeine, Morphine, The to mention the more im¬ portant ones. majority decisions is the view that the nation is not moving enough in accepting and im¬ plementing changes. In this the Court becomes not only a harbing¬ er of change, but an aribter arid innovator as well. Public dissatis¬ faction with the Court may one day reach a point of Constitutional change, to prevent decisions pro¬ scribing or replacing legislation. When the Court becomes political (or devoted to special interests or ideologies), then the whole judici¬ ary falls to a very low ebb. We need strict observance of the Con¬ stitution, not mystical obeisance to the “change” mythology.
