James’ demand for sweeping wartime powers to suspend or modify any state law is headed for certain rejec- tion by the state legislature on the ground that it would create a ‘“‘super- government” contrary to state con: stitution. Doubts about the wisdom of such legislation are just as strong among Republican as among Democratic members, and the administration me- asure may not get out of the Repub- lican senate to face certain defeat in the House. As an alternative, some legislators are considering a move to keep the Legislature in recess, subject to call, after the business of the present spe- cial session is finished, to perform any necessary legislative functions that Mr. James asked be transferred to him for emergencies. fers in larger districts where the rate of wage is more remunerative.
