WHAT IS HAPPENING
TO LAW?
I
Challenging the view that "law is whatever
is done officially," Dr. Roscoe Pound, former
Dean of the Harvard Law School, urges that im-
mediate and effective checks be placed on ''the
administrative absolutism" of the Federal agen-
cies, in a recent article.
In the article, "What Is Happening to the
Law?" Dr. Pound finds that for a generation the
courts have leaned over backward in the effort
to facilitate /the administration of social legisla-
tion, yet "exempt from judicial scrutiny of its
action seems to be the ambition of every Federal
administrative agency and is urged by a group
of writers and teachers with increasing insistence."
"As a result," he says, with the multiplication
of thtse agencies, the increasing subjection of
i
every form pf activity to administrative regula-
tion, and hostility of administrative agencies to all
attempts to impose effective legal checks upon
them, we have been coming in practice to a con-
dition of what may well be called adminstrative
absolutism. This is nothing short of revolution-
ary in our /American polity, and some academic
teachers of the science of politics do not hesitate
to pronounce it a revolution and to praise it as
such."
"Instead of a law which thinks of citizens
' i
and officials are equally subject to law, we are told
of a public law which subordinates the citizen to
the official and enables awriter to put the claims
of one citizen over those of another, not accord-
ing to some general rule of law, but according
t- his personal ideas for the time being."
Dr. Pound declares that many of the admin-
istrative agencies entertain complaints, institute
investigations, begin what amount to prosecutions
before themselves, allow their own subordinate to
act as prosecutors and often make adjudications
ia conference with those same subordinates.
"All this," he finds, "runs counter to the
most elementary and universally recognized prin-
ciples of justice."
The need for checks on the unfairness of
administrative agencies, declares Dr. Pound, is
not so much a question of protecting wealthy
wrongdoers and great corporations from reason-
able regulation, since they alone have the re-
sources to gain some protection from the courts,
as it is a question of protecting the average and
small business and the individual citizen.

And don't forget those fellows who voted to
raise their salaries down at Austin represent a
gioup of fellows who ran for the office knowing
the salary to be ten dollars a day for a period of
lllO days in the regular session and five dollars
per day for days in addition to the 120. After
getting the office and Ion assembling in session,
they then voted to raise their pay by J400 per
cent, and draw salary at the rate of $10 a day
the whole year round. Ar^d on top of that they
Wanted the salary hike to be retroactive and thus
draw pay inviolation of the agreed salary when
they were elected. Of course, the cure is in
v
the hands of those persons with a ballot.
WHAT OTHER

THINKING
A SNAIL'S PACE
(Dallas News)
We live to learn, thanks to
more observant contemporaries
who tell us what we haven't
known. In all of classical and
modern literature may be found
frequent reference to "a snail's
pace." That has meant for us
the slowest of slow progression,
but not until recently has any-
one told us specifically
just what a snail'3 pace
really is. Now, an English
gentleman who spends much of
his time observing this ubiqui-
organized a national Snail
Watchers Association, reports
that a snail travels at the rate
of ninety miles a year.
Break that figure down.
Ninety imiles in a year of 3G0
days means one fourth of a
mile per day, or one ninety-
sixth of a mile per hour. That's
fair going, better for a snail
than we have hitherto believed.
But when his pace is compared
with the 750 mph which tihe

Jester Says
Determined
To Carry On
Corsicana.—"Gov. Coke Ste-

would not be <ai candidate for
governor brought me so many
telegrams and letter's pledging
support that I now am more de-
termined than ever to fight for
the state's post-war welfare, as
well as defend it against evils,
both present and future" de-
clared Beauford H. Jester as he
completed a campaieted a cam-
paign swing through East Texas
Saturday.
"Everywhere I went people
deluged me with offers to work
for my election. This indues
the common people and busi-
ness leaders alike. It was tdue
in Waxahachie, Hillsboro, Madi-
sonville, Lufkin, Nacogdoches,
Palestine and all of the other
places I visited."
Jester said peace officers are
enthusiastic about his declara-
tion for a modern parole and
probation law which will pro-
tect citizens against habitual
criminals.
Two network broadcasts are
on Jester's schedule next week,
the first on Tuesday June 11
from Dallas over Lone Star
Chain at 8:30 p. in., and the
other from San Antonio over

day at the same hour.
Jester was in Austin Monday

Mass Production
Of New Homes
Now Under Way
Should Housing Expediter Wyatt's
goal of nearly 2,500.800 new homes
between now and the spring ol
1948 be attained, it will do more
than take the edge oil the housing
shortage. It will constitute the mosl
epochal development in housing in
5000 years — mass production ol
homes.
For under this program, Wyoit
proposes that 850,000 of these i.e ..
homes be factory-built, thus !:i.vur;
the basis ft r a new industrial gian
that eventually will make possil>!-..>
the creation of millions of lu.-.urj
homes at the price of cottager.
More than nine out of ten of the
"prefabs" called for hr the Wyatt
program will be built by applying
machine methods to the building in-
dustry's traditional materials, ac-
cording to an article in the Juno
issue of Scicnce Illustrated, new
science magazine.
The common denominator of this
method is the ready-made panel,
generally of wood or related mate-
rials, from which walls, floors, ceil-
ings, and roofs are assembled. And if
building codes .permit, the panels
arrive at the building site with
doors, windows, and wiring already
installed. c>
"Prcfabrication's promise of low-
-Ost housing is often attributed to
j sacrifice in quality," the article
states in part. "There are, of course,
,orry-buildor« in prefabricatiori just
• s among conventional buflders.
'lost prefab homes, however, will
io better than their handmade ri-
vals, for factory production is in-
omparnbly more precise and better
:ontrolled."

Yet the time-worn expression

the rate of the world's progress

better than a snail's pace. In
