Ha also made public tle views on this
subject . of ex-AttorpeyrOeneral Wayne
MacVeagh, aa follows: . v, '
'The language of bur constitution,
(rained by the wisdom of our fathers, la
exceptionally plain and Imperative aa to
the treaty-making power, ' It requires as
a condition precedent to tha making of
any, treaty that ..every ; agreement ; be
tween this country and any foreign
power should be considered a treaty, be-
TaTiirrTonsTnmi6rrBaiTirrTaTi
It should be submitted to tha senate, and
that two thirds of the senator ahall
concur in tha wisdom of maintaining It,
The concurrence makes It 'part of the
eupreane law of the land.'- ... -
It is Inconceivable that; In view of
such provisions, a -president alone can
make any action of his a part of the au
preme'law of the 'land,' If mo, .our 'su
preme law would be subjected to the
caprice of every successor of President
Roosevelt, and tb wise men who framed
the . constitution knew It would be un
safe to entrust the lawmaking power to
any one man. - The language of the su,
preme court on the subject Is very em
phatic, a follows:
'It need hardly be aald that a treaty
cannot .challenge the constitution; or be
held valid If In violation of.' tha 'nature
and fundamental prlnclplea of our gov
ernment" -' ; ,'- i ': :vt
