On the eve of The Hague conference,

Decline of U. S.
; Government
Seen by Weeks
Condemn. , Direct - Primary,
"Bloc" Agltatloni and Con
stitutional Amendments
' Sees Social Democracy. 1
CleveUn4 June IS.-(By A. P.)
A iraawy pesausueiie view oi some
of the predominant tendencies of
American political thought was
voiced today by Secretary Weeks ofj
the War department at the com
meneement exercises oi Western Re
serve university,
la an address which he said he
was tempted to entiley ."The Decline
of the American Government," the
war secretary declared the drift' of
recent years wss gradually weaken
lag the patioe governmental struc
ture by undermining the constitution
and sweeping away the principles of
party responsibility.
The direct primary, "bloc" agita
tion, and the country's readiness to
accept constitutional amendments
were given by the speaker as evi
dence thst the government' was
beading away from its ancient safe
guards and toward complete social
democracy. ' ; i .
"Never at Lever Ebb."
"As one result" he asserted, "in
the public mind the 1 legislative
branch of our national aovsrnment
probably never has been at lower ebb
than ft ta today -
' The direct primary," be continued,
has so palpably lessened the quali
ty of men willing to serve in pub
lic affairs that prompt action should
be taken to greatly modify or en
tirely repeal It." ,
Turning to the "bloc" movement in
politics, Mr. Weeks declared that'
when a party comes into power j
promising to do certain things and
then finds that groups break away
from party allegiance whenever their
own interests seem to be directly in !
volved, "there is an end to responsi
bility in government , : f ,
In its attempts to improve upon
the work of the fathers by amending
the constitution, the. secretary said,
thecountry had "failed signally" ;
; "Have Run Riot" V
He added that in the matter of
popular elections "we have run riot"
and suggested that much of the pres
ent unrest and uncertainty seemed
to center in taxation. .
By way of preface, the secretary
said his philosophising applied to no
particular party and that he spoke
not as a government official, but as
a private ' citizen exercising his
privilege of free speech. His address
follows in part: ' -a
"I am greatly disturbed by the de
parture in recent years from the
government of the constitution, as I.
construe it, to other forms of gov
ernment which have, a decided ten
dency toward complete social democ-
. t t i -i . t t . r t - ..1

the ability of our government, to en
dure. .1 must admit hai I am very
pessimistic : sbwt the result' of the
present trend, vwhicft I, cannot but
believe is gradually" weakening trnr
governmental ' structure and t may
eventually change its character
- Tendency tJnteifere.
"Government is so? intricate that it
should be 1 administered: by trained
men. The constitution intended that
this should be done and that the gen
eral common sense which applies in
other - fields - of human i endeavor
should be used, in administering the
affairs of our government ' - - -
"We, see an f ever increasing ten
dency on the part of the citizen to
interfere in the details of legislation,
and the representative in congress is
rapidly becoming merely the delegate
of his constituency. 'Of, course he is
aware that the people of hit district
in all probability have been unable to
give the subject ariy deliberate con'
sideration, but , an active and or
ganized minority may create such a
furore that its demands are mistaken
as the expressed sentiment of a ma
jority." .
