Senator George, Geo favorite son Presi- dential candidate, who was a member of the Georgia Supreme Court for five years before he became a Senator and is regarded as one of the ablest constitutional lawyers in the Senate, sees no difficulty in solving the problem of the Eighteenth Amendment in case a majority of the voters do mot like prohibition. Speaking for himself, he says he is a dry, but he adde: 1 have the deepest sympathy h the impatience of the we 1 think it is not at all within the spirit and genius of our system of government to give the United States Government the power to intrude itself in the premises and on matters which ought to be sole- ly within a citizen's private judgment. Senator George’s plan of changing the situa- tion if the wets are in a majority is to nullify| the Eighteenth Amendment in regular and law- ful manner. He urges them, if they are in a majority, to elect a Congress that will repeal the Volstead Act. A Constitutional amendment, he says, is not self-enforceable and without en- forcement laws becomes a dead letter. He admits that the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constituion are dead letters, but he says that is because there are mno in- escapable Federal statutes providing for their enforcement. He sees a similar fate for the Eighteenth Amendment if Congres§ would repeal the Volstead Act and would oppode the passage of a new “Force Bill” as Southern Senators and Representatives, aided by Northern Democrats, opposed the “Force Bills” of the time of Presi- dent Harrison when the Republicans came back into power after the South had found a way to evade the provisions of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. Speaking of the manner in which the Four- were in effect to become dead teeth and Fifteenth Amendments nullified in the South and made letters, Senator George says: Why apologize or evade? We have been very careful to obey the letter of the Federal Constitution—but we have been very diligent and astute in violat- ing the spirit of such amendments and such statutes as would lead the Negro to believe himself the equal of a white man. And we shall continue to conduct ourselves in that way. . . . simple thing Righteenth Amendment. have to do is to elect House of Representatives Volstead Act and refuse forcing legislation in it The first perhaps, the Eighteenth Amendment Fourteenth and Fifteenth to refuse an appropriation of the Volstead Act. That only in the event of a filibuster to prevent the fruition of the will of a majority that would want to repeal the Volstead Act. Senator George’s plan would leave the Eigh- teenth Amendment for each State to enforce if it would see fit to do so. It confers that right on the separate States. Otherwise, each State could meet the situation in some other manner that would be satisfactory to its people. - to kill the All the wets a Senate and to repeal the to pass en- place, in It is a step, a fight to kill dead as are the mendments would be for the enforcement would be, of course, YOUTH FOR SMITH AND HOOVER. One of the notable things about both Gov. Smith and Secretary Hoover is the appeal they seem to have for the youthful voters. In the college polls that have been taken thus far they are about the only two candidates that are voted for at all. In the South the youny men and women are strongly for Gov. Smith. In North Carolina Senator Simmons and Josephus Daniels seem about to lose control of the party machin- ery to young Democrats, nd it is because they are opposing the New York Governor, though both of them have said they will support him in case he gets the nomination. ‘ ABLE CONGRESSMAN IS DEAD. A very sincere and very useful member of Congress passed away with the death of Martin B. Madden of Chicago, Chairman of the House Appropriations Committee. He was a Congress- man who took his work seriously to some pur- pose. He really tried to serve his country. He worked hard and applied a rare business train- ing and a Jot of accumulated wisdom to his task. However, it looked for a while that Mr, Madden would not be able to get re-elected to Congress next year. His English birth was against him.

That boring from within in a financial sense may be, mutually beneficent is indicated in a recent official bulletin of the Bethlehem Steel Corporation. Withinl only four years, we learn, 30,000 employees have saved approximately $ 000,000 and invested it in the corporation’s 7 per cent. preferred stock. * * * The world-stage is set for two gigantic social and industrial experiments, a contest for suprem- acy of diametrically opposed systems of indi- vidual and ational life The issue is hetween American capitalism, which saturates almost the entire industrial productive fabric of the United States, on the one hand, and the communism of Soviet Russia, on the other, which inhibits prop- erty rights and private ownership, and which has set up the doctrine—at home absolutely, and abroad as propaganda-—that the Russian concep- tions of the social and economic order are right, and that those held by the rest of the world are wrong. This generation will have passed— and many succeeding generations, no doubt—be- fore humanity finds a solution to those social, political, and industrial problems that now en- gage the thoughts of statesmen, the captains of industry, and the man in the street. For rea- sons too obvious to require elaboration, however, the . great majority of the people in the United Statés will probably continue to approve of an industrial policy that assures a maximum of wealth, and all that this implies, for everybody, rather than seek to apply the Russian practice of leveling all phases of human living and ac- tivity to a plane of bare existence, for the reason that little or nothing of what makes life worth while is to be had at any plue—l)e(auw almost non-existent. The experience of the people of the United States in working out their destiny points un- erringly to the conclusion that in neither capi- talism nor communism as now conceived is the ultimate of good to be attained. Admitting with humility that perfection in any sphere of human activity or thought is not within sight, the con- clusion is inescapable, however, that the great- est measure of national prosperity has been reach- ed in countries that refuse to subscribe to the communistic theory of government, A Villiam Mor Memorial. (Manchester Guardian.) There may be many to whom it is not yet known that their fellow-admirers of William Morris are trying to raise to him, in his own Thames-side village, a memorial that would be after his own heart. We may not all put the same value on his poetry, but in the arts that the surroundings and the implements his was a light that burned high and Its own suc- life of clear in England in a dark time. cess may have dimmed its brilliancy now: many of those who take pleasure in good modern print- ing, or in the relatively high level of design in the papers of today “‘commercial” chintzes, cretonnes, and wall- are not aware that it was Mor- ris, more than anybody else, who made these things possible. He taught English men and women to feel a need for them, and by his ex- ample he fired English designers to bring life and beauty back to decorative art by embracing whole-heartedly the double law of its being— that it must not copy nature and yet that it must have relations with nature, must carry some fresh and vivid expression of nature about it. Directly or indirectly, nearly all educated people have taken some light from his mind, per- haps from its ardour of artistic invention, per- haps from its mighty glow of brotherly sym- pathy, perhaps from both. And now there is a chance for all to acknowledge their sense of this debt. * * * A committee full of illustrious names, from the Prime Minister down, have the project in hand; the plans for the hall are complete and admirable; nothing remains but to get to- gether the three thousand pounds that are still short.
