Congress and the Constitution. Simultaneousiy a movement for the amendment of the federal Constitu- tion in respect to the right of the Su- preme Court to declare laws unconstt-| tutional has been started in the an- nual convention of the American Fed- eration of Labor and in the Senate. At the Cincinnati meeting a program of four proposed amendments, includ- ing one to this purpose, and three legislative measures along generally | the same line of court restriition wav Froposed and will doubtless be adoptec when all the speeches in favor of it have been delivered. In the Senate Mr. La Follette declared his intention to propose an amendment along the same lines. There is apparently a difference between the A. F. L. and the La Follette plans. The federa- tion's suggestion is that if the Su- preme Court decides that an act of Congress 1s unconstitutional, or by interpretation asserts a public policy at variance with the statutory decla- ration of Congress, then if Congress by a two-thirds’' majority repasses the law it shall become the law of the land. The La Follette proposal iy that Congress may merely re-enact the law “in the regular constitutional manner” and it shall thereafter be- come effective in spite of the veto of the court. ‘The federation’s plan is to put the court’s rejection upon the same basis as the President’s veto by requiring two-thirds to pass it anew. The La Follette plan requires merely a ma- Jjority vote, unless the author means a two-thirds vote by his use of the phrase “in the regular constitutional manner.” In either case the proposal to regard the court's declsion as a veto to be @vercome by re-enactment fails to take into account the difference be- tween a presidential veto and the court's rejection. The President may wveto an act of Congress on grounds of policy, public or political. He may regard it as inexpedient or untimely. ‘He may reject it on the score of econ- omy, or because of some flaw of jus- tice or equity. The court, however, rejects & law because in its judgment it does not square with the estab- Ushed principles of the Constitution. Jt takes no account of policy or ex- ‘pediency or economy. It may reject aw which in the judgment of its ‘fhembefs Is fa'r and Just and desfra- | offense it ble, but which traverses & constitu- tional limitation. Herein lies the vital importance of differentiating between court and presidential veto. In overriding the latter Congress rcerely asserts its judgment over that of the executive as to the policy or expediency or equity of the measure. If it is to pass laws even by two-thirds over court veto it becomes the =ole agency for the amendment of the Consti- tution, eliminating the states, three- fourths of which must give their as- sent to any changes. For, if Con- gress can pass a law over the court's rejection, it can, by two-thirds vote, work any change whatever in the organic law. If the constitutional methods of amending the fundamental law are to be modified it may be possible to invest Congress with the power of re-enacting laws declared unconstitu- ional. But any proposal to amend must go to the states for ratification, and it is extremely doubtful whether the states will ever assent to the loss of such a vitally important preroga- tive as that of passing upon the con- stitutionality of laws rejected by the courts. American “Frightfulness.” During the war much was heard of rman “frightfulness” in prosecu- tion of the kaiser's campaign for the conquest of France. ommitted upon innocents, were shot after surrender, perty | was destroyed and every known rule of warfare was violated. The Ame can people were aghast at such abom- inations and strongly denounced them, were. in fact, moved to enter the con- t on their account without specific against th's nation. When finally the United States did become a combatant its troops were fired with a feeling of determination to punish the offenders for their cruelties. Now we are having “frightfulness” of our own in Llinois. Union miners on strike have attacked a body of non- union workers without pro other than their production of « have shot them down in the workings and later, upon their surrender Leaten and shot them to death with fiendishness unsurpassed by the worst conduct of German troops in the war. For such an outrage there is no e excuse. The men who were ked were within their rights as workers. The men who attacked them became lawbreakers the moment they sought to prevent thelr working. A cording to statements of members of the mob they organized by spontane- ous iantent, apparently without lead- ers. There was no discip Thes broke into arms stores and looted them for guns and ammunition. Ft jusand, it is estimated, swarmed upon the mine, an open pit, and start- «d the attack. There can be but one answer to this | | proceeding, and it should be swiftly given. The forces of law should be summoned and order should be re- stored. All those who were in the at- tack should. upon identification, be charged with murder and tried. The i state of Illinois should act, and if it cannot summon sufficient force the United States should be asked to in- tervene. For this is revolution, none the less serious because on a small scale. This is a violation of all the guarantees of liberty, none the less serious because committed by an unled mob. It can- not be tolerated lest it spread. Horrible as it is, this outbreak in Illinois has its encouraging signifi- cance. Tt indicates that the protracted strike, which while not vet seriously wenacing public welfare vet is potent of heavy losses and widespread suffer- ing, is coming now into the stage of collapse. For it has been the unvary- ing history of these contests that violence marks the deciine of union v and the beginning of the end. Labor leaders are prompt in their denunciation of these murders in Tl ois. “‘Investigation” is\immediately assured by the heads of the miners’ union. But in the public mind there will be no disposition to relieve those leaders of responsibility for this out- break, which is the logical outcome of the strike which they promoted. There is no ground to excuse the members of the striking organization on the score that the outreges were com- mitted by outsiders or sympathizers. ‘While in the mob may have been some who were attracted by the excite- ment or the chance of loot, there is evidence that the main body was com- posed of union miners, determined to stop the production of coal. If the United Mine Workers’ Union cannot control its members it has to bear in this matter the responsibility for lead- ing them into a position where such passions and crimes result. ———————— The fact that home dutles have taken Mrs. Olesen temporarily out of the Senate fight in Minnesota ought to strengthen her with the conservative woman voters. —————— While great referee talent is being devoted to base ball and motion pie- tures, the real need for it remains in the coal regions. A persistent inclination to avoid peace creates the fear that China is hopelessly behind the times. Philippine Independence. An old-time ditty may be drawn upon for the substance of the Presi- dent’s reply to the visiting Filipinos asking for Immediate independence for their courtry: “There's a good time coming, boys. Wait a Ilittle longer."” How much longer the President does not say. He could not well say at this time. The question remains ‘where at present it properly belongs— on the knees of the gods. ‘The temper and taste of the reply are admirable. The Filipinos are com- plimented on their aspirations, and on the progress they have made under a rule and tutelage giving them hope, and assured that while that rule and tutelage continue their interests will continue to be carefully guarded. That the President feels concern in the matter and the full welght of his responsibility is attested by his course. He would not act until en investiga- tion of conditions in the islands had been made, and he appointed for the work the most competent men avail- able, both of them familiar with the have | territory and the people. As they re- ported against immediate independ- ence, he naturally accepted thelr judg- ment and has acted on it. ‘While the visitors have failed in their object, their long jouraey has not been without compensation. It has given them opportunity to meet {the President, and discover that he is not profuse of promises nor lacking in triendly candor; and they should re. turn home inspired by the discovery t® assist him to the full to make con- tinued American direction a continued success in the archipelago. Fair Play in Accounting. Washington welcomes the prospect of an impartial search for equities in favor of the District, arising since 1878, like that which has already been made to unearth alleged equities against the District in favor of the United States. To offset the anti-District accountants whom the District was compelled to pay in 1911 and 1914 to di alleged items of past indebtedness on its part, there should be District ac- countants who could not only dig up District equities prior to 1878, if the examination antedates that year, but work out carefully the millions due the District on account of violations by the United S s since 1878 of the half-and-half provisions of the or- ganic act. The oniy District of Colum- bia taxatlon authorized and directed by the organic act is that to raise one-half the amount of District appropria- tions previously made by Congress. If the law is followed there is no pos- sibility of a surplus of District money, unmatched by United States dollars. Indeed, the latter are, under the law, put up first. But in practice Con- gress has vepeatedly collected more in District taxes than it has matched either before or after the levy, and has expended the surplus with- tion, in violation of the law. metim out dupl IThe account of such expenditures | should be stated; some one represent- ing the District should be among the nts and the emount found in ‘fl'\v lequity to be due the District should :L.- credited to it. e Cuba and America. The Havana newspaper which has worked itself into a fury against the United States has made some interest- |ing discoveries. The first is that the revolt against Spain would have been sueccessful without the support of this cour And vet at the time the support tovk place the fortunes of the Cubans were at low ebb. The revolt seemed doomed to the fate previous revolts had met. Spain’s hold on affairs strong an unshaken until the United States d clared for a free Cuba. The second discovery is that the in- tervention of the United States was dictated by selfish considerations: that | what this country had in mind was securing control of the island fur own purposes. And vet when Spain, TUnited States, and could have been an- nexed as Porto Rico was, American control was in a short time brought to a cl and the Cubans were invested with authority over their own aff: Does that suggest selfishness, or a de- sire or purpose to exploft?

However, there s not for that reason cause to believe that they rind any less small than in the west. ;hs situation appears hopeful. Cer- tainly, It is well worth watching.” Because by acts governments are judged, the New York Times argues that Kato will be judged on what he does in the Siberian case, as “no one thing that the Kato ministry might do would so promptly raise Japan's standing in the public opinion of the world as an early and genuine with- drawal from Siberia.” This also is indorsed by the Chicago Tribune, which recalls that Kato “is believed to have been influential in the Japa- nese decision to hurry the withdraw- al of troops from Siberia. He seeks the friendship of China. He is a modern.
