An Outmoded Constitition
When the Supremen Court of the Cnited States
ttphekCa clansc-of-tht"CunMitutioir-m-its decision-ore
the constitutionality of the NRA, it evidently upheld
the word and letter of the Constitution as written.
Yet when we consider the pur|x?se for which this
clause of the Constitution was written, we believe the
writers took no thought that they were legalizing
monopolies and protecting them rather than leaving
a document that would protect the liberties of the
people.
In stead of protecting men generally, the Consti
tution has enabled less than 100 men to so manipulate
the business of the nation that they now own more
than the other 125.000,000 [)eople. Instead of guar
anteeing full business freedom, we find that the 100
have been permitted to grab more than half of the
wealth they own by the very terms of an old, delapi
dated and worn-out Constitition, and that this small
group is still able to manipulate and annul the very
purpose of the Constitution.
When the Constiution was written, we had a sparse
ly settled, free and open country where every man
stood on equal terms with every other man. None of
the wisest men of that day even hatfany dream that
the power of electricity would some day drive heavy
machinery a thousand miles away or throw a man's
voice many times around the earth. They did not
know that railroad trains would run through the land
with thousands of passengers and thousands of tons
of freight.
Nor did the^ suspect that a small group of men
would ever be able to sit around a small table on a
small street and dictate the price of every man's wages
in the L'nited States, every grain of com, all the
wheat and other commodities; the price we must |>ay
to talk to our neighbor a mile away or a thousand
miles away, as the case may be.
This Constiution has crowned business king, and
left the citizens which it was designed to protect to
grope through life in darkness, in poverty, and with
out much hope for ever being any better off.
A Constitution that crushes humanity and exalts
wealth should he changed quickly.
Pure 'Impudence
The I'niteil States Chamber of Commerce has
worked unceasingly for a long time trying to discred
it the New Deal in general, and section 7a of the Na
tional Recovery Act in [articular. Now, it comes in
lil?e a |>enitent defrauder and urges business to con
tinue the priciples of the N'RA. _
This wa> evidently done in a spirit of impudence?
a thing that no honest citizenship should respect.
Watch the United States Chamber of Commerce. It
is nothing but a clearing house for big business to
fool the folks. Its change of clothes does not change
its nature. It is the same old wolf and wil ldiscard
ifs sheep s clothing when it considers the time is ripe.
Words And Actions
Lots of office holders are shaking at school clos
| ings here and there these days. They are generally
: good >|ieakers, of course, and are able to give some
gwxl advice. But they should Ire watched not only
for what they say but also for what they do. Watch
1 their votes as well.
r both these plots of tobacco received complete fertilizer of exactly the tame*"
analysis. The difference is this! The mixture used at the left was made
k from old style natural materials; at the right, from pure materials. ^

... better than words ?
?This season more crops than for
many a year will be aide-dressed
with Natural Chilean Soda. It came
from the ground; now it's going
back to the ground to give health
and vigor to your crops.
Once we believed crops needed
only phosphate, potash and nitro
gen, Now we know they require
many other elements. Once we
thought of the old-time natural/er*
tilizers only as sources of phos
phate, potash and nitrogen. Now
we know they contain other equally
accessary elements.
All these years we
have been following
Nature's laws?and
only realized what that
meant after trying sub
stitute materials.
There was a differ
ence. Crops showed it.
They did not seem to get what they
needed?what the old-time natural
fertilizers supplied.
What is the difference? Some
people think, itis the extra elements
?the "vital impurities." Others be
lieve it is the natural origin, the
centuries of blending and curing.
Probably it is both. Tha main point
is that the difference is there, and it
means much to you.
Be sure to say "Chilean" when
ordering your side dresser. Just that
one word?but what a difference!
See your dealer for Chilean Nat
ural Nitrate. Two
kinda?Champion
(granulated). Old Style
(crystals). They are
both genuine. Both are
natural. And both give
to your crops those
vital impurities.
