Today, a strong central government is necessary to pre vent disruption of our economic and social structure by a var'oty of conflicting authorities and in terests In that early day, federal power was necessary to make us In fact a nation. Today, fed eral power is necessary to en able the United States to live and lead in the family of na tions. The debate concerning the concentration of power In Washington is a recurring one. It arises to some extent in every presidential campaign and be comes particularly violent dur ing war periods. But the sincer ity and vigor of the present pro test has been occasioned by causes beyond the normal ma neuvers of politics or the dis locations created by the federal assumption of nece sary war powers. It arises from more far-reaching causes. move, as we must move, into the affairs of the world, the more this will be true. For we will be living and functioning and trading in a world where other peoples have granted to their governments the power and the authority to act for them. No, the Issue today Is not the Issue of slates rights versus fed eral power. The issue is govern ment administration under law. For if economic and social regu lations in our modern industrial age must be national In scope to be effective, so their admini stration must be by law and rule if the citizen is to remain free. The solution lies not in a weakened central government. It lies In assuring the proper use of the power we have deemed it wise and necessary to grant to the federal govern ment. That means a sense of re sponsibility In administration. The spectacle of the present It means and this is Important administration's arbitrary use of local administration of nu vast authority, tho caprices ofjmerous federal functions In The issues involved in fed eral power and its proper use concern human freedom itself. They are issues which Republi cans should state clearly and fight for not behind an out moded mask of states rights or ifi conjunction with those who use that mask to prevent social and political advance, or those others who, by a pretense of coi.cern for the rights of the states, really seek to weaken the federal government to such an extent that the United States will be unable to play its appro priate role In the world of to day. They are Issues we should fight for vigorously, frankly and openly. If we prevail we will have a government repre senting us aoroaa with dignity and power, an instrument of the united will of our people which can lead the world to tangible economic and political co-operation. And at home we shall have a government with power to vitalize our economy, eliminate at abuses, and, at the same time, preserve and extend the free dom of its citizens. To build such a government strong centrally and just in it- administration is in the finest tradition of the Republi can party.
