All that you would have would be at the! a congressional majority Hs of your sy Referring to President Coolidge,/ the secretary of state defended his ion and told the audience, | 4 the municipal auditor-; ium, that “if you desire a leader who inewrnates Americanism, you could nd no one better than Calvin Cool- ge.” administ while filles Blames Democrats Mr. Hughes laid at the door of the last Democratée administration re- Lsponsibility for “the serious eco- nomic conditions” of recent — y @nd told of the present administra- tion's efforts to accomplish “the dif-| ficult task of restoration.” * The Dawes plan, he said, “has op- ened the way to economic ibcover abroad,” while here at home Pres dent Coolidge ir practicing govern- mental economy, “a paramount need in all our efforts to promote prosper- “There are two menaces at this time which threaten stability and confidence and a blighting of our hopes for increased prosptrity,” he “Both of these menaces pro- directly from the third party. The one lies in its uptive pro- vos: the other in its endeavor to prevent an election on Nov, 4 and to throw the election into the house of representatives. rd Party Aims Revealed “The third party appears at this | wrament to be soft pedalling on its chief issues, But they are there, Find the measurable success of its ef- forts would shake public confidence. For it has disclosed its aims. “Jt aims &t government ownership of railroads And of all public utili-! ties which would impose’ an intoler-! able burden upon the taxpayers with no advantage either in service or rates. If the government is comp tent to regulate, it can regulate now. Thespower to regulate interstate commerce is as broad as the demand of any exigency. “The most serious and dangerous aim of the third party is in the at- tempt to destroy our system of gov- Gimment by its assault upon the jur- isdiction of the supreme court in the interpretation of the constitution. “This is the proposal of the third party—that the constitution be amended so as to provide ‘that con- Bas may by reenacting a. statute make it effective over a judicial ve-| to.” What is meant by a judicial ve-| to? Simply that the court decides in the exercise of its jurisdiction to de- termine controversies that an act of) congress is contrary to the constitu- tion. It is proposed that congress in passing a measure twice may override the constitution in any way it pleases. Assault Upon the States “The proposal of the third party is not merely an assault upon the su- preme court, It is indeed that; but ivfis far more than that. It is an assault upon the states. * * * * The proposal of the third party would mean the enthronement of congress over the states. Congress could pass any act it pleased curtailing or des- troying the rights of the state. I am not speaking of states’ rights with the idea that such rights in the old sense should be supported against the authority given by the constitution to the nation, That question has been settled, Within the sphere of national authority congress has su- preme legislative powers. But along Vith this national authority is the continued and important authority of the state. “The proposal of the third. party, if carried out would make the con- gyess supreme over the president.) Whatever constitutional powers the} president now has, congress could; disregard by the simple expedient of enacting its measure twice. It could take over to itself the entire power of the executive if it saw fit. “Congress could thus determine the entire basis of representation, all questions of elections, all rights of voters. If a majority once obtained control of congress it could do what it pleased with our government. *-." * | “Where will you find a body bet- ter adapted to fulfill this purpose | (that of passing on the constitution- | ality of law) than the supreme court | of the United States? Of course it’ is a human institution and hence ecan- | not be infallible. But congress is al- | so a human institution and one most | exposed to the play of political mo- tive and at least calculated to be an\ impartial arbiter in the decision of; constitutional controversies. “Whatever success the third party @iay achieve in this election is pro- gress toward * * * uncertaii and unrest, toward impaired stability and destroyed confidence.
