Stepping into the completely politi- cal observance of Constitution day which swept over the country yester- day, the Roosevelt administration, through the person of Secretary of Commerce Roper, last night threw added weight into its efforts to effect certain changes in that often-amended document. Speaking at the George Washington Masonic Memorial in Alexandria, the South Carolina political veteran issued a ringing challenge to the “Constitu- tionalists” and called upon the Na- tion to make its own decision on the | issue of a constitutional amendment | permitting “bold, direct action” in | times of “acute national distress.” After terming the right of amend- { ment to be “the heartbeat of our con- | stitutional ~system,” the Secretary | closed his address by combining tiat principle with the favorite Roosevelt thenm of “‘the more abundant life” | and the declaration that: “The Roose- ‘velt administration, recognizing that our economic and social progress de- mands that we adjust and adapt our governmental principles and proced- | ures to these changes, aims to give | the people of this Nation a greater opportunity to secure those benefits which our heritage and enterprise | have made possible. These great fun- | damental principles must be preserved and adapted to assure national prog- !ress as against national decadence. The first requirement of a progressive society is a progressive constitution. | That is the essence of democracy. | That is the great heritage which is ours today, fathers 148 years ago. | principle which is embodied in today's | fundamental challenge ‘forward with | the Constitution.’ Do-Nothing Policy Vain. ' Other excerpts from the Secre- | tary's speech follow: “On every side now we are hearing the declaraticas that lulled the coun- try into lethargy following the crash in 1929, and during the two or three vears immediately following. Vir | tually all major economic signposts pointed downgrade into the ever deep- ening canyon of depression, yet those who had been carried to leadership by a great post-war boom existing for would gradually | let alone. matic readjustment and proved to be a will-o'-the-wisp that almost led the United States into ir- retrievable disaster. * * * “Marshall's words “to be adapted | to the various crises of human affairs’ | reflect the absolute necessity for the vital living character of the Consti- tution. It reflects an adaptability and flexibility without which this Nation could not have progressed and en- dured. If conditions once again decree that the people should have an op- portunity to express their will with respect to giving their Government necessary scope and authority to deal | with grave, disrupting peace-time emergencies, and to maintain the | stability secured through arduous re- covery efforts, who can righteously say that such a procedure is not fully in accord with traditionally estab- | lished principles of American Gov- | erement? Right of Amendment. | “The right of amendment is the heartbeat of our constitutional sys- tem. It is the one means by which the people themselves have the right |and duty to change and adapt the fundamental faws of our Goverament right themselves if . To thwart or inhibit this right would mean to choke tne flow of democracy’s bloodstream. The | framers of the Constitution could not envisage specifically the vast and com- plex problems which changing con- |ditions in our economic and social |life have brought about. | did foresee the inevitability of a | changing national life and conse- quently sought to devise a Constitu- |tion that would have the flexibility |to meet these changes. With far deeper wisdom and vision, they ex- | plicitly set forth the means and meth- ods by which the people themselves | could change the Constitution whtll | progress and development made it proper and necessary. Thus far in our Nation's history the people have exercised this right 21 times. ® * * “There is an unfounded and un- American cry in our country today that even to think of changing the Constituton is heresy, yet the amend- ment clause of that document is the source of the people's greatest strength and the basic principle of our democracy. In the same breath in which this cry is uttered, reference is made to those reverend forefathers | who drew up the organic law of this Nation and yet who saw fit in their own lifetime to interpret and amend that law as conditions required. Emergency Faced by Lincoin. “Lincoln, at the time of giving his first inaugural address, faced an acute | domestic emergency just as Roose~ | velt did in 1933. In this address Lin- fcoln dealt frankly with several aspects | set forth by our fore- | That is the | over a decade preached that things | But that doctrine of auto- | recovery | But they | THE EVE ENING STAR, WASHINGTON, of constitutional questions, making this trenchant observation: “The candid citiz2n must confess that if the policy of the Government, upon the vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court, the instant they are made * the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically re- signed their Government into the hands of that eminent tribunal, * ¢ * “Today those who are most vigor- ously criticizing President Roosevelt on constitutional ground are reani- mating the practices and name of Lincoln in a desperately hopeful at- tempt to infer that Lincoln’s 1ecord from a constitutional viewpoint stands in contrast to that of Roosevelt. The public position of no two Presidents, with respect to fundamental guiding principles in a great domestic emer- gency, has been so basically similar as that of Lincoln and Roosevelt. * * * “Lincoln averted absolute internal chaos through ultimate victory over the destructiveness of a Civil War; Roosevelt averted absolute internal chaos through victory over the insidi- depression.

He pleaded not guilty and de- manded 30 days in which to fight ex- tradition. According to the warrant, upon which issuance of the fugitive war- rant was based, Ward was wanted for defrauding James A. and Sarah Estelle Cobb of the Maryland town.
