It is interesting to study the origin, the development, and the decline of the idea of the veto power in governments. The veto is the voice of autocracy, ifot of democracy. It was born of the doctrine declared by Louis the Grand, when he cried. “The state, I am the state!” It is a part of the doc trine of the divine right of kings. Its purpose was to pro tect the prerogatives of kings. It has come to be used to defeat the will of the people as expressed by congress, their voice under the constitution. Calvin Coolidge has the veto power, because 2,000 years ago Augustus Caesar asserted his authority to use it upon the senate of Rome, and backed that assertion with an army. Later the Caesars passed that power down to the kings and kaisers that followed after them, until at last it came down to English kings. When 150 years ago our fathers framed our constitution and our laws, they adopted the principles and practices of the unwritten constitution of England. Since an English king still claimed the power of veto, it was grant ed to our president in our own fundamental law. But the veto power of the British king is as dead today in England as William the Conqueror himself. Not for 200 years has any English king dared to use the veto power upon the parliament of England. If George V, king though he is of Great Britain and Ireland and emperor of India, were to attempt to use the veto power even once upon the parliament of England when it speaks for England it would end even the name of kings in England. But here in free America the people may fight for years for a bill dealing with the life or death of a great industry absolutely essential to the welfare of the people. The de mand for it rises in such a tide as to drive it through both houses of congress by a big majority. Our government is not a democracy nor an autocracy; it is a representative government. Four hundred and thirty five congressmen and D6 senators are the only voice the people have in the republic that can speak for them in law. At last the bill comes up to the president, and he passes judgment upon us all. He takes his pen in hand and writes “Veto!” I forbid it, like Caesar of old, and so ends tin struggle of the people to get relief by law. If a president still has the power that once belonged to kings, to use it like a king is not in keeping with American ideals. A study of the history of my country convinces me that if Washington, Jefferson or Lincoln Avere president today and confronted with this great responsibility, they would not defy the representatives of the people, but would recog nize and respect their right to speak for the nation and sign kh bill. Jolt for Working Student. From Century Magazine. To wait on table, tend furnace, .ell papers, jerk sodas and at the ame time study toward a college degree is a life that many Ameri cans will defend, for perverse rea sons, as ambitious and deserving of credit. But quite bluntly it is a life both vicious and absurd, a life quite unworthy of a free man's interest or devotion. Even Theo dore Roosevelt, most strenuous of modern livers, inveighed against the folly of trying to work one's w°y hrough college. His advice to the intellectually ambitious young man was: “Take a job for a couple of years, save enough money to allow vou to study leisurely until your funds are gone, then repeat the pro ■ess.’’ And until every impecunious .tudent can get a lat scholarship, Roosevelt's counsel will be the souna st advice a young man can heed. College authorities know that the »art ttme student is a poor risk tnd that a high per cent, of under graduate mediocrity and failure Is •Jue directly to the strain and wor ry of budgetry difficulties.

The ideal of self government is not dead. But is Is approaching the point of truth and reality. The pur pose of self government for which men and women for some centuries have given their al> is being veto power against tyranny. The real desire of mankind i« to be well governed, retaining only the power to demand good government Good government is the least possible government and the least possible of laws It Is the best and most of administrative government taled 158.884. an Increase of 22 900 over 1938.” the report states Im migration from the British J«!r* in- ' creased from 48 819 to *3.940 'hat from the United States from 2€ 944 to 33 818 and from other countries from 86.331 to 83.136 "Ontario gained the largest num ber of immigrants, with a total of 39,228 Manitoba was second with 38.413 Western Canada got 'A per rent, at the total 'lltatea of the United State* that contributed most heavily to the Ca nadian immigration were Mmhl tan Mil; New York, M31 Wash and the least and wisest of legisla tive government. It is the opposite of parliamentarism, as we know it, which gives no answers, while man kind hungers for the machinery of quick, straight and courageous an swers. For the fulfillment of these de sires there is astir In Europe real laboratory experiments in govern ment. They are going or. in Italy preeminently, in Hungary, in Spain and in Portugal, with its burden of illiteracy. There are stirrings to ward this end in many corners. Unworthy would be one who worked to destory the ideal of self government. Worthy, indeed, is the bearer of tidings of the stretching forth of human desire for good government. What did they want—these human beings? Self government or good government? It appears that they wanted good government. -- «« - Lesson of Knapp Case. The conviction of Mrs. Florence E S. Knapp, former secretary of state for Me wYork, on a charge of misappropriation of public funds cannot be said to prove anything one way or the other about wonmen in public office. The case is of more ordinary intrest, however, in several particulars; and it is likely to be used, as it already has been used, to back up assertions that women are out of place in politics —from which it would be logical to assume that if grafting is to be done in public office it ought to be left to the men who know from experience how to away with it. This ease has attracted special attention because Mrs. Knapp was the first women ever to be elected to state office in New York and one of the few women to be elected to any important public office in the eastern section of the country. Mrs. Knapp has charged, and it was used in her defense, that she was being prosecuted as the result of politics, she being a republican and the charges finally being pressed against her by Governor Smith. There seems little basis, however, for that defense. The evidence seems to indicate that Governor Smith was, in fact, loath to press the charges lest he be accused of playing politics; and it was not until a thorough investi gation showed strong evidence of wrongdoing that the state’s author ity was brought fully to bear in the T *•» tV-rn inroc H nra H nn hnth sides were given opportunity to be heard, publicly. In the firsct trial of Mrs Knapp the Jury disagreed; in the second the jury found against her Whatever ether bearings the case may have, the real lession of it is that no faithless public official, man or woman, should escape pun ishment. With River Working. There is good reason now for be lieving that within less that a de cade government barge will be parrying the farm produce of Ne ora.ska, Iowa and the Dakotas by water to the sea and thence by ocean tran-port to both coasts and to foreign markets. Those same barges, on their return trips, will bring to us lumber, coal, steel and other heavy and nonperishable com modities for consumption. The freight saving will run into the scores of millions, and the major portion of the heavy industrial handicap suffered by the interior states on account of the Panama canal will have been removed. The government goes into busi ness. It builds and buys barges. It sells transportation service. It com petes with the railroads And It does it with the consent, however, re luctantly given, of Calvin Coolidge. stubborn opponent of Just such public enterprise. It does It because It is essential to the development of the greatest and richest valley re gion In the world, and to putting that vallev unon an economic equal ity with the rest of the country, so far aa concerns Its transportation need* tngton. 1 600 Minnesota. 1.435: Cal ifornia. 1005 and Masaachusetta, ! 038.
