We know that the program now being worked out by the Republican leaders and members of the next congress will guide the nation to prosperity at home and continued peace abroad. But we know also that these results will not be achieved ovrenight. : The Republican Party does not yet have control of the congress—one of the three great coordinate branches of the government. But for the next two years the Democrats will still control the presidency and most, if not all, of the various departments, commissions, and other agencies of the executive branch. Moreover the third branch of the federal government —the judiciary is now composed in overwhelming numbers of appointees of Democratic presidents. Under our system of government the judiciary is intended to be independent of politics: Hence, it is to be hoped that its members will not be influenced by any political ideologies which may have had something to do with their appointments. The president has announced his intention to cooperate with the Republican congress in the national! interest. Republican leaders have announced their desire t6 meet the president halfway. Nothing is to be gained by ignoring the difficulties involved in this bi-partisan control of the government during the next twoyears. A frank realization of the difficult nature of the problems thus created may assist in their solution. : In discussion of the promised cooperation between congress and the’ president, it should not be overlooked that it is the Republican congress which holds the most recent mandate ~-fromthe American people. By their votes on November 5th the people announced that they were dissatisfied with © the Democratic conpress. Hence they elected "Republican majorities in hoth the senate and the house of representatives. Jt must be assuméd-from-this aét of the American people. that they favored the legislative program promulgated by Repubhean leaders and Republican candidates during the campaign That mandate of the people it would seem should be binding upon the executive as well as the legislative branch. It is the duty of the Republican congress to translate into laws the program which has been approved by the people. Equally it is the duty and obligation of the executive branch to accept this expression of the people’s will. \WENUPY A Et Serve 100 Days In Jai \T IEREERY’S Clarence Creel 28, who pleaded cre AD BOA a guilty to drunken driving before GRASS VALLEY: Cigars have Justice of the Peaice’ R.
