SEES TREND IN EUROPE TOWARD DICTATORSHIP Reaction Against Popular Govern- ment There Casts Shadow Over U. 8., Dr. Beck Warns. European reaction against popular government in favor of dictatorship casts the shadow of social revolt over America to which the people of this country should not be blinded, Dr. James M. Beck, former solicitor gen- eral, warned In his second address on the ‘ideals of the Constitution last night, under the auspices of the Georgetown University School of For- elgn Service. Another element of danger from within this country menaces democra- cy under the plea of “emergency leg- islation,” Dr. Beck said. “The doctrine of emergency may be the Trojan horse which will yet subvert the cita- del of the Constitution,” he sald. Alluding to the fact that Europe ! in the grasp of dictators, Dr. Beck said that 150 vears after the Declara- tion of Independence ‘‘popular gov- ernment all over the world seems to be in more serious danger that at any time since Jefferson, like Chanticleer, proclaimed the ‘reddening morn’ of democracy."” Directing attention to the insistent demands of labor upon the govern- ment of England, Mr. Beck warned: “Let no one in this country be blinded to the fact that a successful soclal revolution in England through this power of direct action might have a significant repercussion in this coun- try, and might destroy that ‘govern- ment of the people, by the people and for the people.’ " Dr. Beck pointed out that it is a mistake for America to think it has finally and completely solved the prob- lem of popular government. "It is stil' an unfinished task,” he reminded. “To it the living, from generation to gen- This New Atwater Kent Creation May Be Seen at the Radio Studio of J. Fred Huber 1222 G St. N.W.
