LAWMAKER FEARS | SOCIALISM TREND Huddleston Sees Attempts to Make Radical Changes in Constitution, By the Associated Press. Representative Huddleston, Demo- erat, of Alabama, said today that “thoughtful” members of Congress fear & atrong attempt will be made to add “socialistic” amendments to the Constitution. Huddleston, & leader last session in the fight against the ad- ministration’s utility bill, pref- aced his remarks | with a discussion of such measures ¥ as the A. A. A, . the Wagner labor disputes, Guffey | coal regulation, | railroad pension | and utility acts. | He said “there isn't a real lawyer in Congress” who believes those meas- | ures constitutional. When the Supreme | Court scraps them, he contends, there | will be demands from some groups for | changes in the Constitution. Sees Move by Roosevelt. President Roosevelt himself, the | Alabaman added, may seek changes, | regardless of Supreme Court findings, | if he is re-elected by another big margin. Congress, he said, will “go | along” if it retains most of its presenl‘ “trash.” “There are members who are greatly | disturbed over the situation,” Hud- dleston said. “They are the more | thoughtful members and those with | the better type of legal training, too.” | He pointed out that one out of every ten Senators and Representatives has | already introduced a measure suggest- ing a constitutional amendment. There | are 56 such bills pending. Fall Into Two Classes. Huddleston said in the main, they deal with two subjects: Restricting or denying authority of | the Supreme Court to pass on the | constitutionality of acts of Congress. Giving the Federal Government the right to regulate production and dis- tribution. Most of the measures were intro- duced by “liberals,” Huddleston said. “But the only thing they are liberal | in,” he stormed, “is in spending other people’s money. It is amazing that| they should steal the name of ‘lib-| erals.’ “True liberalism consists of standing for the greatest possible freedom of action on the part of a citizen, where- as these false liberals are all for re- stricting his freedom of action and | for his regimentation under govern- mental control.” NEW DESTROYER SLIDES DOWN WAYS AT CAMDEN, Rep. Huddleston. Porter, Sponsored by Kin of Hero of War of 1812. By the Associated Press. CAMDEN, N. J., December 12.—The Navy's newest destroyer, the Porter, slides down the ways at the yards of ’the New York Shipbuilding Corp. to- day. The Navy selectedMiss Carlile Pat- terson Porter, descendant of Commo- dore David Porter and his son, Admiral David Dixon Porter, for whom the &hip is named, as the vessel’s sponsor. The Porter will be taken to the Philadelphia Navy Yard to be fitted. The destroyer, of 1,850 tons displace- ment, is 372 feet long at the water line. Commodore Porter, great-great- grandfather of Miss Porter, was a naval hero of the War of 1812 and later American Minister to Turkey. His son, Admiral Porter, who re- ceived the thanks of Congress on three occasions for his Civil War service, was one of three Americans to gain the permanent rank of admiral, now a temporary rank. Farragut and Dewey were the others. INDUSTRIAL_'GHIEFS HEAR DAWSON FLAY NEW DEAL ¥ormer Federal Judge Charges Attempt to Set Up “Super- Government.” By the Associated Press. LOUISVILLE, Ky., December 12.— Kentucky business leaders last night heard former Federal Judge Charles 1. Dawson attack the New Deal as attempting to establish “a super- Government at Washington and the destruction of the reserve powers of the States and of the people.” Speaking before the twenty-fourth annual meeting of the Associated In- dustries of Kentucky, Dawson who left the bench to fight the New Deal, charged that the Wagner labor bill, the soclal security bill, the utilities control bill and the Guffey coal bill *involved invasion of a field of legis- lation which the Supreme Court, time and time again, has declared beyond the reach of Congress.” COUNCILMEN REFUSE TO WEAR SILK HATS Vote Cash for Rose Tournament Float Only After Toppers Are Banned.
