'Admmlstratmn Managers Believe President’s Power Will Be Extended. BY the Associated Press. . The Senate neared a vote today on the reciprocal trade act after Senator | Borah, Republican, of Idaho declared 1t burdened American agriculture with | Asked by Senator Harrlson, Demo- | crat, of Mississippi, a champion of dian treaty had seriously affected American cattle prices, }eslerda; | “If enough cattle came in to help | the Canadian farmer, enough came | in to hurt the American farmer.” Although his protest joined those of Senators Vandenberg, Republican, of Michigan, and Capper, Republican, | of Kansas, and other leading Re- | publicans, administration managers | held to their belief the Senate would pass the bill extending the President’s | power to make such treaties. Earlier Senator Austin, Republican, of Vermont attacked the trade act as 8 measure ‘“centralizing governmental functions in the hands of the Ex- ecutive.” He said it was the duty of Congress to fix taxes and ratify treaties, but that this power had been handed to the President. * Borah conceded that onlg 156,000 head of Canadian cattle entered the country in 1936, and added “it may be true there was no permanent or universal irjury to the domestic cat- tle market,” but he asked, “why admit any when we had a surplus in this country?” “The American market belongs ex- clusively to the American farmer to the full extent of his ability to supply it,” he added. Borah asserted the only “sound” trade program was one which brought into the country only those things which are not produced here and which goes beyond is no longer on a sound principle of international trade. ' He declared America’s favorable trade balance had dropped $231,- 000,000 to $34,800,000 between 1935 and 1936. e HONORED BY HAITI Capt. Stuart, U. 8. N., Directed American Mission in Island. Capt.

C © Vitrolite ® Window Bjass OPEN WEEK DAYS 7:30 to 5:30 P.M. NA. STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, MINISTERS OPPOSE CHANGE IN COURT Direct Strong Resolution to Garner and Heads of Committees. The preachers’ meeting of the Wash- ington district of the Methodist Epis- coral Church today was on record azainst President Roosevelt's proposal to increase the number of Supreme Court justices. In a strongly worded resolution di- rected to Vice President Garner and the chairmen of the Senate and House Judiciary Committees, the clergymen voiced “vigorous protest”sagainst the President's plan, contending it “would repudiate the fundamental principles of the Constitution.” The resolution, adopted Monday, was drawn up by a committee composed of Rev. Frank W. Collier, professor of philosophy at American University; Rev. William A. Haggerty of Rosedale Methodist Episcopal Church, and Rev. Ralph D. Smith, Woodside Ephcopll Church. It urged the Washington cherluen of Churches, with which the orgamza- tion, comprising clergymen of 60 churches 1n the Capital and vicinity, is affiliated, to ask other member bodies to express opposition to the court re- | vamping plan “‘and to petition the Con= | gress to seek changes as may be nec- essary by plain, direct appeal to the people.” Any method of changing the funda- mental law by indirection, the resolu- tion stated, “is a violation of democ- racy, and thus is politically reprehen- sible, a betrayal of trust and, hence, profoundly immoral.” The text of the protest follows: “Tne message of President Franklin D. Roosevelt to the Seventy-fifth Con- gress, with a bill attached, proposing an increase in the number of justices of the Supreme Court, calls for vig- orous protest by all Americans who prize our democratic heritage enjoyed for over 150 years. “We, therefore, the members of the Preachers’ Meeting of the Washing- ton District of the Methodist Episco- ground that what . the President asks | for would repudiate the fundamental principles of the Constitution, namely, the threefold division of powers—ex- | ecutive, legislative and judicial—which | balances. In this American plan, the | powers are co-ordinate and independ- ent, and the verdict of history is that individual liberty is thus best pre- served. diciary can protect the liberties of all the people, especially in times of emo- Autocrat Vellum WRITING * PAPER A popular white Vellum for In- formal Notes One-quire boxes 50c¢ || R STATIONERY STORE | 718 Thirteenth S'v‘u' SN TEOER?

Any method of change by indirection is a violation of de- mocracy, and thus is politically rep- rehensible, a betrayal of trust, and hence, profoundly immoral. “If there be a present need for change, the people should be appealed to directly. No mandate has been given by the people for what the President asks. To grant his re- quest would be a betrayal of trust by the Congress and a surrender of its legislative function. This may pos- sibly result in irreparable harm to America, to democracy and thus to civilization. “And we request the Washington Federation of Churches to call upon other affiliated bodies to protest through the federation the action of the President, and to petition the Congress to seek changes as may be necessary by plain, direct appeal to the people. Thus the desired end can THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 25 be attained without illegally hamper- ing the Supreme Court, the constitu- tional bulwark of the personal, politi- cal and religious liberties of the Amer- ican people.” PROPOSES HOLIDAY Congress today had received a pro- posal to declare the birthday of Thomas Jefferson a legal holiday.
