And some of the subjects which . have been classed under the head ing of states rights such as tide water lands, health, education credit control, taxes and national defense which involve the problem of states rights versus federal pow- ! er, are questionable as a matter of purely state jurisdiction.

It is» pretty well established that education is purely a state question, but when states do not provide ed ucation for all citizens then this question arises: Shall the federal : government give aid to the states on . this question of education for the ' general welfare, since - all children are entitled to an education and an educated citizenry is regarded as a national safeguard? Healtft is another question of fed eral ys. states rights. When the mat ter of national safety is concerned and 40 per cent of young men are because of health disabilities, the question arises . . . Does the federal government have the power to step in and provide health laws? Who Controls What? !, The federal reserve board recently wanted to order all national banks I upon which it has jurisdiction to I tighten credit controls. But state | banks are not under its jurisdictiot. i So what happens then in the fight 1 to curb inflation? Does the federal i government have any right to step in to control state Chartered banks? On taxes, the states have for sev eral years maintained that the fed eral government is usurping many of their fields of tax revenue—on gasoline, on hosts of excise taxes and on the other individual commodi- I ties. Now’ the question of the na tional guard has arisen. The guard has been looked upon as a state mil itia in time of peace but is sworn into federal service in time o£__war. Then ori this question of states rights there arises the problem of a clash in duaf powers— state vs. fed eral—in production of public power, reclamation, irrigation and grazing lands. Mr. Dewey apparently wanted less federal control. For instance, he fav ored a state authority to govern pub lic pow’er on the St. .Lawrence river and he w’anted less federal control in any future river valley develop ment such as TVA. On the health question. President Truman wants a strong compulsory federal health insurance program. Sen. Robert Taft’s bill is a federal , bill but limited to grants to the states. ^ • FOR OFFICE SUPPLIES CALL 74 CHRONICLE PUBLISHING CO Vote Given On Amendments To S. C.
