about Hitler id it be that Mr. Dodds, who has been in Berlin in government service for this country, was speaking so truthfully that the shoe fit? Certainly the shout from Naziland would indicate so. It will be interesting a result of Mr. Dodds’ remarks.

This decision was a complete about-face from the Court’s decision on the same subject in 1928, In 1928 the Court held that the provision of the Radio Act of 1927, declaring that “no person” may tap telephone wires, did not apply to Government agents. The Court now holds that the same provision in the Communications Act of 1934 does apply to Govern- ment agents. as head of the greatest news gathering agency in the world. Members of the AP, of which The Empire is one, will regret to see Mr. Noyes step down due to the excellent job he has done. At the same time it must be conceded that after 38 years of continuous serv- ice the newspaper man certainly has won a respite from the duties of President if he so desires, and with him will go the best wishes of the newspaper frater- nity the country over.

Mr. Dodds went further and gave it as his opinion that Hitler’s power is more absolute than any medieval emperor and that he believed a grave danger was near at hand unless Germany, Italy and Japan are checked by the democracies of the world. Through Ambassador Hans Dieckhoff, Germany immediately protested the remarks in a loud voice and went to the State Department about it, declaring it an "unheard of insult against a friendly nation.” as a ruler was résponsible for the killing vears than Charles But if the Supreme Court had done this it would have been again in the position of overruling Congress and it could have been criticized for exercising a veto over Congress, a veto which many people—ourselves included—think of dubious constitutionality The Court chose instead to say that in declarin wire-tapping illegal it was merely enforcing the “plain words™” of the law as passed by Congress. It thus put itself in the position of obeying rather than over- ruling Congress. t happens that the “plain words” to which the Court refers seem plain enough to a layman, obviously aren’t so plain to a lawyer because in 1928 the Court said that these same “plain words” allowed Of course, Secretary Hull had only to point out Government wire-tapping. | that Mr. Dodds is again a private citizen and what ainer to us than the words is the fact that the he says has nothing o do with the government, In COUrt has decided that it had better take the liberal cours other words, we still have free speech in this country, amazing as it may seem to the German leaders.
