Whod'O-o-oh
'TTCB complete, report en ytiterday'g Supreme Court decision
malceg tli government ' victory, even mor gweeping than
tint indieattd.
Not only ii the labor relatione act eustained, but the long'
sought liberal interpretation of the commerce clause, is estab
lished. This column can't qualify as a legal or constitutional author
ity, but our guess is, thst this decision not only legalises the
Wagner measure, but would, in another test ease, legalize the
Guffey Coal Aet, as originally framed; the AAA; and with a
few minor changeg in wording, the N.R.A.
In other words, as we view it, ths Supreme Court, thanks
to the reformation of Justice Roberts, has sustained, every im
portant legal principle in the New Deal program,
NEVERTHELESS we observe, that John L. Lewis, doesn't
rejoiee in this action, but regards the five-to-four decis
ion, as demonstrating the instability of the Supreme Court, and
wonders how long the people will allow the destiny of "our
republic and the well-being of its population" to depend upon
the "legalistic whims and caprices of one man." ' "Ob
viously the situation needs change. The president's court plan
is the immediate answer,"
ANSWER to what? The president's proposal does not outlaw
five-to-four decisions. If there should be 15 instead of 9
members, one member wquld still have' the controlling vote in
a divided court, the people would still have to abide by the
fundamental prinoiple of democracy majority rule.
John L. Lewig again demonstrates, he is a grand old scrap
per, but when good sportsmanship and fair play are demanded
in short the judicial temperament, John L.'s qualifications
are slightly less than those of a charging bull elephant.
The only excuse for packing the Supreme Court, destroying
its independence, and overturning our long established system
of checks and balances, wag to secure the validation of the ad
ministration 'a program. Why, in the name of common sense,
TAKE that revolutionary step, when the goal, not only can be
reached, but HAS been readied, WITHOUT it!
John L. ia talking through his hat.
A Labor Dictatorship?
rTHERE seems to be as idea hereabouts, that the Supreme
Court decision, approved the provisions of the Wagner
bill.
Not at all, The Supreme Court APPROVES nothing. It ruled
not on the justice or injustice, the desirability or undcsirability,
of this measure t but upon its constitutionality.
SO much for the view expressed by an ardent Rooaeveltpho
biac, that the Supreme Ceurt in this ruling, sanctions a
labor dictatorship in the United States.
The Supreme Court sanctions NOTHING. It merely states,
that labor in interstate commerce can be regulated by Uncle
Sam if he wishes. What form this regulation should take, is up
to the people through their representatives, in other words up
to congress, not the Supreme Court,
A ND interstate commerce does not cover the actual trans
portation of goods from one state to another ALONE,
"congress also has the power to regulate matters which are not
literally in interata commerce, if it is necessary to do so, to
regulate that which is acknowledged to BE interstate com
merce." IF this is as clear as mud don't blame this column, It is the
clearest quotation we could find, from a recognized legal
authority, and the same authority maintains this has been the
law, from the earliest days down to this.
Then why all this delay, what's all the shooting aboutt
The same authority maintains, that heretofore, the Supreme
Court held production and manufacture NOT within the com
merce clause, because there was not a proper presentation to
it, as to what constitutes interstate commerce. (Well if that
doesn't make Attorney General Onmmings' face red, his blood
pressure is lower than his actions indicate).
Whicii would not put the onus of what Brother Lewis calls
"instability" upon the court but upon the government's lcal
department.
IJOWEVER, we are wandering a bit.
The point we wish to make is that the Supreme Court de
cision, simply declares, that the government CAN control la
bor, but has nothing to say about the precise form or direction
that control should take.
Therefore those, who no longer Thank God for the Supreme
Court, but because of this decision believe "Old Eric" now con
trols it, are as mixed in their facts, as their theology. The de
cision can in no way be construed as opening the doors tc. a
labor dictatorship. v
IN' fact aa action and reaction are equal, and as "we the peo-
pie" just dote on going to extremes, this column would pre"
diet thia decision, while it civeg organised labor increased pow
ers, will ultimately result, in a turn to the rif(ht, a turn away
from any possibility of labor domination. For unless litbor lead
ers with more balance and restraint than John L. Lewis, gain
control, this upholding of the Wagner Act will go to their heads,
and they will soon get the idea they have the world by the (nil
with a down-hill pull, and act. on it.
IT is a firm conviction of this column that the people of this
1 .,.! TXMT T. vmn Till
labor baa had a raw deal in the past, they approve of the ad
ministration's policy of giving it a square deal, but there is a
limit, and that limit ia passed, when labor starta to demand
NOT its legitimate rights, but MORE than its legitimate rights
The Wagner bill, ia a good bill, but it is far from a perfect
one. Its chief defect lies in the fact, it says a great deal about
the rights of labor, and practically nothing about the rights of
capital, or those who employ labor.
If this defect is taken advantage of by labor, then popular
indignation will be aroused against labor very much as it has I
been against the sit-down Strike.
At least that is the probable result of this decision as we see
it. The passage of the Wagner Act and its sanction by the Sii
preine Court marks the extreme swing of the pendulum in on
direction, the next swing will be to the right not the left.

Crime Versus Radicalism
To the editor:
The politically ambitious J. Edgar
Hoover, head O-man, la reported In
the press as having discovered a
cause of crime. It la due, he thinks,
to parents who allow their children
to listen to the "soap-boxers on the
corner." Hoover really wants to be
taken seriously. Perhaps he la mak
ing a buildup for a cleanup on the
radical movement which he does not
like. He la known to ba hostile to
union leadera and other "disturbers
of the peace."
Hoover does not seem to know
that the soap-box ss an Institution
hsa passed out over a generation ago.
It la doubtful if one child In a
thousand haa been influenced In the
least by this way of blowing off
steam.
Hoover's oause of crime Is about
as aound aa that school of historical
philosopher! who hold to the belief
thst the Amertcsn Civil war waa
caused by "Uncle Tom's Cabin."
The Hoovers who Identify crime

(Continued from rHge One )
went Into agony ever a report that
the administration would raise the
prlc of gold. The tale In the street
Is that millions (meaning at least
tidy profit) were msde on that oc
caaton by rouletto experts who know
where the wheel would atop.
A more valid rumor heard tn gov
ernment (not financial) circles la that
the new Roosevelt price-fixing pln
may be worked around the new KftA,
ss well as relief expenditures for con
sumers goods.
ft la generally considered, to be In
evitable that some government price
bill must be presented. Unleaa the
administration taker, some action. It
will find Itself uy in the giddy price
altitude of 1930, flying blind.
Msny whe h s ve ta 1 ked w 1 th Mr.
Roosevelt lately have been disturbed
by what he did not To them, he
talked of financing, taxes, etc., but
did not one mention balancing the
budget. Their hopes of getting a con
structive and settling relief message
from the White House are frankly
not warm. An Inner fear exists that
he will not go all the way along the
road recently pointed by the Bccles
Mongenthau group
Since the government bond market
troubles, the conviction has spresd
among economists of the new order
that the budget must really bo bal
anced. By "balance," they mean not
a paper prospecting of evening up
the book some day, but a convincing
prospect of a surplus. That la the
only kind of balance which will safe
guard government credit from future
misgivings.
Few believe It will be either feas
ible or popular to increase the exist
ing onerous burden of taxation to do
It. The only logical way. they say, is
to eliminate every cent of waste.
The simplest way to look at the
price problem is this:
Four factors make prices wages.
hours, taxes and the cost of raw ma
terials, in Industry now, wages are
being Increased, hours decreased. This
action Is bound to Increase the cost
of manufacturing and la bound to
Increase prices (note the results of
C I. O. success in steel and coal)
The movement Is being officially en
couraged by administration policy.
Increased cost of raw materials Is
being officially encouraged by gov
ernment buying for ships, buildings.
dams, etc.
Now, if the government tries to
raise taxes again, It will be encourag
ing the fourth factor in prices while
publicly prof easing to be fearful of
a price rise.
And yet prices are being officially
blamed upon the foreign armament
boom.
A correction should be made In
the Item published Saturday about
Vice -President oarner's warm words
