Chacha (By Representative Roy O. Woodruff of Michigan ) In a government such as ours, a strong minority in Congress is imperative if the nation is to escape dictatorial rule by the Chief Executive.

Under those conditions the legaslative branch feels its full responsibility and asserts its function as the interpreter of the public will. Since the advent of the New Deal the numerical superiority of the majority party in both Houses of Congress has been so overwhélming as to produce the effect of a one-party government. Consequently, we have had, first, regimentation of business under the NRA, then regimentation of agriculture under the AAA, and finally, usurpation of power all along the line by transfer of legislative functions to the Chief Executive, including the all-important control of the purse strings. This insidious desiruction of the power of the people over their own affairs will proceed apace until they, through the ballot. restore within the Congress a more even balance between the two great political_parties; and’ what is equally important, elect to the high office of President a man who has no delusions with regard to blessings accruing through centralization of authority in the White House. Outnumbering .the Republicans three to one in both Houses of Congress, the New Dealers have created a new type of government distinguished by its disregard of the checks and balances erected by the Constitution, the only capable defender of which at the present time is the United States Supreme Court. If the present incumbent of the White House is re-elected, what assurance have we that the Supreme Court would not be ‘‘packed’’ with those who would agree to the changes in our fundamental law sought by Mr. Roosevelt? Here is the fundamental significance of the impending election. 7 If the people of the country fail to see, to think, and to act clearly in this great crisis confronting the nation, we will; drift into the same maelstrom which: has engulfed the nations in other parts of the world. Labor Day (Contributed ) It is more than just-another holiday that California and the nation will be celebrating next Monday. Besides its special significance to all who work with hand or brain for a liveJihood (and that includes most of us), Labor Day is at once an epilogue of summer and a prologue to autumn. Men march and bands play, picnicking crowds flock to the countryside, the children in many communities are all fitted out and thinking-of a return to school on the morrow, and pervading all is a realization that summer is through and autumn is beginning. Above all, let us remember, this year, to be careful on the crowded highways, where death claimed more persons on Labor Day week-end than’on any other in California last year. Let us remember, too, that overbold sWimmers are often drowned, and that a match or cigarette carelessly tossed,or a campfire left burning in the woods, may wreak destruction. There is one particularly good thing about this holiday. It can never fall on a Saturday or Sunday. And that is right because’ for all who punch a time clock whether actually at] = > the factory door or only in their minds, it always means an extra day for rest or recreation. a . Goodbye To Single Tax . (Contributed ) . With the swift, sure stroke of a six to one decision, the State Supreme Court gave the Single Tax the axe last week, and all California cheered. Off the November ballot it went, held. “‘misleading and tending to deceive the signers.’ Perhaps there were a few ardent and sincere advocates -of socializing land whose ardor for their impossible cause blinded them to this deception attempted by their leaders. erhaps, if there were any such, they deserve some méasure ‘of sympathy. © -_ But this Court ruling should serve as an example and a SACRAMENTO TO BREAK GROUND FOR AIRPORT SACRAMENTO, Sept. 3.—Ground breaking ceremonies for the War Department’s new $7,000,000 Air Repair Depot and Supply Base will be held Tuesday, September 8, at 11 a. m., Sacramento.
