In order to satisfy his craving for regal pomp and outward show Solomon, who had made such a good beginning as a young king, soon turned his court Into a place where luxury and idolitry ran riot, Although he built the magnificent temple at Jerusalem, it is to be doubted whether his motive was to honor God by bullding a beautiful house for his worship, or whether it was just another means of dis- playing his power and his false pride. In order to maintain his court in luxurious fashion and to build the buildings he desired, the people were Increasingly burdened bY heavy taxation and forced labor. It is no wonder then that they were exasperated and became prey to Jeroboam, a young ambi- tious, hard-working, scheming Ephriamite, who, because of his industry and valor, had been made overseer of all the relays of labor required by Solomon from the house of Joseph—the tribes of Eph- raim and Manasseh™ This eleva- tion of position gave to Jeroboam just the opportunity he wanted to stir up his fellow laborers into ac- tive hatred and discontent of Sol- omon, the oppressor. Keen enough to realize that the days of Solomon's reign were about ended and knowing that the natural successor to Solomon-—-hls son, Re- boboam-—was not a fit person to feign over the people, Jercboam took advantage of every opportu- nity to put himself into line to be- come the ruler upon Solomon's death, One day, as Jeroboam wag leav- ing the city of Jerusalem, he met the prophet, Ahijah, who called him aside and informed him that he had 4 message for him. Tearing his new outer garment into twelve pieces, he gave Jercboam ten of the EE at an easy | PA —— pleces, saying that it was God's will that the kingdom should be taken away from Solomon's successors over ten of the tribes of Israel Only two the tribes of Benjamin mon's son for the sake of David and of the city of Jerusalem, that in Jerusalem,” a figure of speech which meant that David's family line was never to become extinet, Ahifah, the prophet informed Jeroboamn that there were condi- tions to be fulfilled by Jeroboam if he would bulld a “sure These, conditions were | should hearken unto all that God | commanded and would walk in the ways of God and do that which wags right in the sight of God.

Jeroboam, probably know- {ing this, had the opportunity of | profiting by the mistakes of Solo- | mon gnd thus make his reign over | the ten tribes a success | While we do not go into a study of Jeroboam's reign over the North- {ern tribes, we do know that Jero- boam falled to take advantage of the mistakes make by his predeces- {sor and he, filled with a love of power rather than a love for God, {led his people away from God and deepened the breach between the | two kingdoms, the kingdom of Is- jrael and of Judah, a breach which was never again to be healed. | Of Jeroboam, George Rawlinson { sald: “Jercboam is not condemned for his ambition, for hls self-seek- ing, of for his rebellion against the house of David, but emphatically for his religious innovations. To himself no doubt they seemed mas- terpleces of worldly policy. They suited the temper of his people; they effectually secured the main- tenante of his kingdom {n a state of separation from that of Judah; they remained in full vigor to the last days of the monarchy. But they had in them a root of bitter- ness, which proved fatal to the state. They were of human device; they had no divine sanction: and they rested on falsity I a ee - 4 Louisa’s Letter Dear Louisa: I have been married seven years and my husband and I have been separated only by sickness and we have got along good until about six months ago. It seems as If he has found some one he loves more than he does me. He stays out late &t night and always comes home drunk. He never abuses me, but he néver wants to carry on a cone versation with me as we use to do. We have a little four-room house and we have it furnished rea] cute and we have our furniture all pald for. He seems to be very proud of our little home. We don't have any children. Well; since my husband has been treating me so cold, I have seen another man I have fallen desper- ately in jove with. He comes to See Deg once a week and tells me he loves me more than anybody, but I haven't let him or anybody else know (hat I love him so, He has asked me to divorce my hus- bend and marry him He & di- vorced from his wife and has two boys.

Ralph Summers) Our Constitution is the charter of our national ideals. It contains within Its four corners the basis and characteristic principles of our political philosophy, individual free- dom and self government: it estab- lishes an organic government strue- ture of & Pederal union of the States. Our government was created by the “consent of the governed.” The state Is the creature of man, not man of the state; our government is the servant, not the master of the citizen. Invaluable rights are placed beyond the reach of the govern- ment, that Is the kind of govern- ment the founding fathers estab- lished and which we have cherish- ed throughout our history We do not contend that the Constitution is an untouchable, sacred document We do however, emphatically maintain that in ad- dition to prescribing a popular and efficient mechanical system of gov- ernment it also formalizes and vi- talizes a distinct political philos- ophy. Americanism and that the right of the people to determine the form and character of their gov- ernment Is a sacred and untouch- able right Proposed amendments carefully analyzed; therefore, we must carefully weigh each proposal which class it falls. One amendments the other is Is evolution, the must be 10 s¢¢ In class of such proposed iS growth, adaptation: nullification. One other, revolution Those who maintain that our federal system 5 antiquated and is no longer adequate under changed conditions must take upon them- selves the burden of proving their ontention, and thus far the con- vincing proof has not been pro- duced. Moreover, they have not yet esirable To concentrate unlimited power in one political unit-—-the Executive «by interpretation or amendment is Nol progressive but reactionary It Is in the nature of a collapse backward into a society of primitive apd pagan ideals. This reversion in many countries since the World i# rather a beacon light to us ¢ expansionists seek to advance he direction of totalitarianism I am opposed to this reaction ry are offering us something very dd--not new; something tried out and repudiated If u Can anyone correctly read the history of the Supreme Court with- out being impressed with the great flexibility of the Constitution and its molding by the court to fit the exigencies of changed conditions? With growth there can be quUarTe wh no What we are opposed to Is forced and tificial “growth” either by amendment o construction which fundamentally transforms our con- stitutional system, our political in- stitutions and our ideals of Indiv. idua! liberties to meet not those de- mands of our changed ecinomic and social conditions which have tarally developed and which are Hally exislent but 10 constitu tionally permit imposed theories of doubtful soundness and utility which have not been sanctioned by the people. The atiempt 10 make appear that we are opposed to rogress is simply to divert the de- bate of the real issue away from ts true import and substance, It is in that sense that we answer the question proposed by the subject of this discussion in the negative What It Means to the Man on the Street Historically, the Constitution rep- resents the culmination of centur- ies of struggle for a government which would allow each and every citizen the freedom and individual liberty which every thinking per- son has always desired for himself and which would protect him fram unnecessary restrictions and regu- lations which might deprive him of those rights. Conditions in this ar r a country at that time were such that | men could establish what seemed 10 the clearest and most altruistic thinkers a government approaching perfection in its design to protect those “inalienable rights” with which men are endowed at birth The colonial Americans found that the old regulations and re- sirictions had followed them across the sea and that they were not truly free. Therefore, they framed the Constitution to safeguard their freedom and their rights, and into the Constitution went the fruit of the political thought and progress of the preceding centuries All this was done to protect the ciltzens from the disastrous conse. quences which inevitably result from the concentration of the var- ous attributes of governmental powers in one person or group. The complex life of modern society re- quires such a scheme. Robinson Crusoe on his desert island needed no rules for life of himself and his man Friday. But when men come together in any number they must have rules by which to live and gov- ermnments to see that they are ob- served. The Constitution therefore undertakes to lay down rules for the life of the government on one hand and the life of the Individual citizen on the other. Some of the cardinal rules which the Constitution lays down for the American Government are: 1. All power comes from the peo- ple. The people are the masters, the . government and its officers their | servants. This is rule of popular | sOvereignity. 2. The government of the United |Btates can exercise no power except those expressly given to it by the Constitution, which the people have | 8. The Courts shall have the right | to protect and enforce the rules set’ {forth in the Constitution, to de- {clare any Act of Congress or legis- | lature, or President, or Governor, or | other person whomsoever, which contravenes the Constitution null or void. This is the rule of the su- premacy of the Constitution | The Constitution lays down for every citizen of the United States two great fundamental rules. The first rule of equality, the second is the rule of freedom. It Is the rule {of equality that every person born or naturalized in the United States shall have as of right, all the rights and privileges which any other citi- zen enjoys. And under the rule of freedom every citizen who is will- (ing Ww obey the laws shall be free [to live his own life in his own way in pursuit of his own interests and desires. Equality and freedom those are the Constitutional birth- rights of every American We must never forget that the Government does not, cannot exist apart from its officers, that the idea of an “essential” state of some mys- tical force or power which Is great- er than and above these officers and the people is only a modern super- stitution, a fancy such as may have its place in religious thought, but which is false and extremely dan- gerous in political thought The framers of the Constitution recognized this and bullt according - ly. We would do well to remember the fate of those who worship false ROUN The framers of the Constitution intended the House of Representa- tives as the more popular, 10 be the more powerful body In the Con- gressional system. That hope was in 4 measure realized so long as the number sentatives remain- ed small As a result the greater complex- ity legislation and the unwield- ly size of the House, legislative com- mittees have become more and more important. Debate on the floor is used now more and more not tw influence votes but for its effect the galleries and newspapers The House has also suffered some- what because of iis excessively cal basis. The Constitution stipu- lates only that a representative must be an inhabitant of the state from which he is chosen. This by a rarely broken custom has been taken to mean that a Representa- tive must be an inhabitant of the Congressional district from which Is elected. The Representative is inclined to think in terms of his own district rather than to take a national view of questions. He must therefore always be buliding his political fences, Living in the sha- dow of his constituency he can nev- er be unmindful the repercus- sions which his ac tivity may have in his district The intention of the framers to make the Senate a sort of executive loounci! acting in rather regular collaboration with the President has falled of realization because Sena- tars and the President are party men as well as statesmen and be- {cause the Benale prefers 10 be a check rather than a collaborator Therefore, separation, even antag- oniam. has become more and more pronounced. The Senate looks upon tae! the body which can save the country from the disasters with which It threatened through treaties negotiated by the execulive While the Senate rarely objects to cabinet appointments, there has de- sveloped what is known as “Senator- ial courtesy” In cases of lesser pos- ition. This means that the Senate recognizes the Tight of each of iis members to approve presidential ap- pointments from his states. The ex- tremes 0 which this practice is ocasionally carried serve Wo reduce the standing of the Senate with the country A small group may therefore coerce a majority into accepting its investigating program as the price of adhering to the legislative time- table The Benate because of its special executive functions and its con- stantly increasing power, is per- haps the most powerful legislative chamber in any system of popular government Of late it has become Increasing - ly fashionable to complain of Con- (gress and to sneer at it. One reason is the lack of responsibile leader ship. Another is the President's abil- ity to command the avenues of publicity. Business in Congress is so complex and 50 uninteresting In its details that issues must be high- ly important to attract much atten- tion. Ordinary routine is exciting to the newspapers only if it is disor. derly or humorous. It may be said that in general Congress adequate- lly represents the country, that un- der strong presidents who furnish real leadership it is complained of {less frequently than under weak | presidents, and that on an average its collective intelligence is not imeasurably inferior to the inteili- igence of the average President | This Constitution of ours consists {of 21 Amendments that can be printed on 12 to 15 pages and may {be read In 5 minutes. Well, that is iwhat we call the Constitution, Dut really friends, the Constitution is imore than that today. It is a total {collection of laws, practices, cus- toms, and court decisions which give for all practical purposes our | Constitutional government today. {It is a government that has never {been stable.
