SINISTER CONDITION DECRIED BY SENATOR | Asks Judges to Awaken Public, Interest in Legislation Clacinnati, O., Members ot the Bar Ass called upon by former Senator Charlus American clation were 8. Thomas, in address he delivered be here today to what he ditions the 1s teder legislation. Ho appealed to the lawyer to combat a “rlot of waste and pr fligacy”” which he said,"“has long dis graced tho country's affairs.’ He urged th ation to show the people how they had departed from the principles of impartial enforce ment of laws and equality of rights and to warn therg of the dangers of paternalism and that the governmeut must perish when converted into a colossal agency for the bestowal of privileges and the distribution of its revenues to those securing its control and wielding its authority.” Mr. Thomas s a democrat, whose term In the Senate expired last March. | The former nator criticized the | developement of Federal at the ex-| pense of state authority and enumor ated many ways in which the legisla- tive encroachments of the Al government has invaded state authori- ty. He declared that “if the ra of political authority be ultimately cov ed Into the central system, the pupl may fully justify the assertion that it is impossibe for a democracy to| govern an empire.” Federal ald for numerous projects | such as improvement of rivers and | harbors, he declared, is now to bo eupplemented by the grant of billions to the ex-service men and women of | the recent war, subordination of the resources and administration of the Federal reserve banks to the exi- gencles of speculation, agriculture and labor and by the proposed creation of | a national corporation capitalized | from the Treasury for the purchase and storage of surplus commodities unable to find an immediate market Revenue, he saild, is raised as ex- tensively as possible by levies imposed upon specific interests frankly de- signed to impress the voter with the conviction that the public burden is| placed up other shoulders than his. Taxes, he added, are dictated by political exigences and controlled by political considerations. Statutes especlally favoring groups or classes of people had become & fea- ture of congressional action, he con- tinued. The groups seeking this legis- lation had multiplied throughout the years until they embraced all kinds of men except taxpayers. There were, he asserted, about 250 of them with headqugrters in Washington with ac- tive and vigilant lobbles. They draft bills, secure their introduction, distri- bute them at public expense and bom- bard committees and Congress for their speedy enactment. They have members of both houses card-indexed Their alm, he sald, is to obtain dis- criminatory legielation and heaviest guns are turned on the treasury whose former defenders had become either corrupted er chloro- formed The speaker asserted that numerous leagues and assoclations had been formed since the war to obtain pas- mage of joint resolutions in Congress tavoring the creation of new princi- palities within the dominions of na- tions in whose domestic affaire the United States had no legal or moral coficern. Passage of these resolutions, he declared, committed the nation to a policy involving it in grave respon- sibilities. Yeot, he knew of no senator or representative who had challenged the authority of Congress to do this. Mr. Thomas advised the citizen concerned for his country to study the measures on the calendar of this Con- gresds and acquaint himself with the programa of “these swarming organi zations which seemingly are enlisted in a struggle of every class for itself, and the devil takes the indmost.” “We therefore confront the evolu- tion of a political system wherein rival parties eagerly contend for the mastery of their government by bartering its integrity and its resources for the suffrages of the people,” sald Mr. Thomas. “Our fixed charges for administra- tion, exclusive of sinking fund re- quirements and interest on the na- tional debt have reached appalling dimensions. They are too vast for comprehension in terms of money. They compromise not less than four billions of dollars, while Congress with each passing week adds something fo the burden. “The threatened bonus will adad hundreds of milllons to the sum total. The recent dispassionate and un- answerable appeals of overwhelming tides of expenditure have encountersd violent and unmeasured denunciations, their purposes unquestioned, their motives assalled. They have succeeded in postponing but not in preventing the riot of waste and profligacy, which has so long disgraced the coun- try's affairs.” Mr. Thomas characterized the budg- bill as ‘“‘a budget lame in name of Colorado. n the Association public opinion sinister con- in of 00000009000000000000600¢™: i ot @ | scheme of legislation.” thelr | that it for apportionments and recommenda- tion for appropriations but did not re- strict Congress to the maximum.

Even the tariff has become the basis for common plunder. Republicanism and democracy are meeting on common ground. Party differences more and more concern themselves with compe- tition in the making or granting of much and promising more. “The conditions which I have im- perfecily outlined indicate our progres from a representative republic to a continental democracy.
