To care for the rapidly growing number of rehabilitated men seeking places, the bureau es-| tablished an employment service.

On March 1, 1928, with 19,884 cases referred to the employ- ment service for action, there were 1,207 listed as “not employed.” On September 1, after a to- tal of 33,111 cases had been referred to the serv- ice, there were but 1,158 rehabilitated men “not in employment.” It must be noted that in the “not employed” class are included those who “can not be located,” those who “do not desire em-| ployment” and those who are sick or deferring employment. It is interesting to note that the employment service maintains a “follow-up” system where-| by a man is not listed as employed until he has} shown for a period of four months that he able to fill a position. The figures for employ- ment are therefore bona fide figures and not the number of men for whom jobs have been found. More than 33,000 rehabilitated veterans have gone into employment within the last two years. Statistical figures made of an “unpicked” 20,00C of these show that they are earning more than they earned before the war and before they re- ceived their disabilities or handicaps from serv- fee in the military forces of their country. Tt 4s estimated that 13,859 veterans will be re- habilitated and provided with jobs during the months of September, October, November ané@/ December of this year. 73,276 are underg completed trainin Statistics, acen (The Great “If” Candidate When Henry Ford’s most enthusiastic backers arrange for his nomination for president on a third ticket they admit that his candidacy is more piquant ‘than formidable.

Some of Mr. Ford’s supporters may think that this coolness to his candidacy is due to the total depravity of politicians. They are deceived. Poli- |ticians are always on the lookout for a winner. If they saw one in Henry Ford, some of them would espouse his cause and he would gain what he now lacks and what he will have to have if he is to get anywhere in 1924—shrewd politi- jcal advice and management. There is danger in Henry Ford's candidacy, but the danger is not ot the old parties; the dan. ger is to Ford. He is in peril of another Peace Ship fia . Now, as in 1914, he is completely in the hands of his friends. While he refuses either to sanction or to disavow their efforts - on his behalf, they are going ahead with plans which sooner er later he will be compelled to approve or repudiate.

He now wants a constitutional amendment and briefly the proposed change is that congaess shall have the power to re-enact by a two-thirds vote any law declared unconstitutional by the supreme court. It is an innocent enough looking proposal to Veterans’ bu-|the person too occupied to analyze it, but those who do analyze if find possibility of consider- able disturbance to our form of government to its detriment. Here are just a few of the pos- sibiliti Every distinction between local and national government may be obliterated. That which was innocent when done may be made a crime by legislation after the fact. Jury trial may be de- nied, State religion may be established, speech and publication abridged, the security of per- -|sons and premises against searches and seizures obliterated, any man tried as often as you ;lease for the same offense, despite his acquittal; bills of attainder passed and private property seized for public uses without compensation. Indeed, these are but illustrations of what happens to our most familiar restrictions upon congression- al authority. Literally, it would at once become all there was of the constitution for if it willed there would be no power that congress could not exer- cise, even in the face of a unanimous decision to the contrary by the supreme court, provided a two-thirds majority of the legislature joined in re-expressing the authority. So long as such a proposal were part of the constitution, no sub- sequent amendment would limit it and no pre vious amendment could restrain it. The judicial remedy would be at an end; the restraints of a written constitution would have disappeared, and we would have established in lieu of the gov- ernment, which we know, the unrestrained con- trol of an omnipotent parliament requiring only the assent of two-thirds of its members to em- ploy the power of the government in any direc- tion it pleased. Success of Private Ownership From a nationwide survey by the census bu- reau respecting public and private ownership of utilities ,these facts plants are revealed: The majority of municipal plants are in towns of 1,000 population or less} where funds cannot be raised except by pledging public credit. The municipal plants produce only 4 per cent of the electricity generated in this county, and this percentage is constantly decreasing. The average rate of all municipal plants is more than twice as high as the average rate of all companies reported by the census. There has been a great increase in the num- ber of municipal plants which have shut down their generating plants since 1917. Of the population of the United States served with electricity, the companies serve 93.8 per cent and the municipal plants 6.2 per cent. The aver- age city tax rate in 1921 in cities over 30,000 hav- ing municipal plants doing commercial business was $19.31. The average city tax rate for the non municipal plant cities nearest in population to the above was $15.50. Exempting municipal plants from taxation necessarily means that the tax rate on other property must be increased. Approximately 8 per cent of the gross incomes |of private employes is paid direct in taxes and |about 11 per cent additional goes to the tax man |through taxation on its securities. Respect for Law Nobody believes that a constitutional amend- ment c be repealed. Nobody wants the saloon re-established as @ headquarters for corrupt deals and for plotters in crime. If some people protest against certain details | of the Volstead act, and desire its amendment, they have the right to their opinions and to work for change, but they have no right to break the present law, much as they may wish it were different.
