RUMORS IN WASINGTON SAY CABINET OFFICERS USING SICK EXE-UTIVE AS CATSPAW IN SCHEMES By PAUL HANNA, (Federated Press Staff Correspondent.) Washington, Sept. 28.-Despite his illness and ap proaching automatic retirement from office, the move ment to impeach President Wilson for his defiant vi olation of the Jones merchant marine act will be vig, orously pressed unless the whips of the republican par ty are able to stamp out the enterprise. In addition to the anger of congress and the aston ishment of constitutional lawyers over an act by the president unequalled in autocratic arrogance since the Romanoffs, Hapsburgs and Hohenzollerns, several of, the members of the supreme court. are said to be aroused by 'the ldanger that they will be robbed of their hitherto exclusive right to declare acts of conq gress unconstitutional. Hannis Taylor, an authority on constitutional and in ternational law, known throughout the world, describes the,.president's step aB a "revival of the British crown's ancient practice of dispension." By that prac tice the sold world autocrats would suspend the opera tion of any law of the realm in behalf of persons they might wish to favor. It is agreed here that British shipping interests stand to benefit almost exclusively froni what the president has done in refusing by proclamation to an nul treaties with foreign countries which are in con flict with provisions of the shipping' law. Nobody questions the president's absolute right, under the cop stitution, to veto any act of congress, for any reason orf for no reason whatever, and nobody disputes that clause in the constitution cited by the president, which makes a treaty superior to any law passed by congress. Having failed to veto the Jones law, having, indeed, given it his indorsement and thus made it a law, Pres ident Wilson has no more right to "dispense" with that law than he has to annul any other law, lawyers con. tend, and the supreme court must repudiate his act or else open the door to the regular abrogation of any law which any president may construe into an alleged violation of some treaty. 'The sinister rumor is afloat in Washington that President Wilson is not aware of this and other revo lutionary acts being performed by a clique of cabinet officers, who use his name and his illness to. cloak their undermining of American institutions. Whether this be true or not, the report adds to the bitterness of those who declare impeachment proceedings must be inaugurated to break up a conspiracy against demos cratic government in America. In this connection the Federated Press learns that a complete set of impeachment charges prepared months ago for use against the president, and which were withheld on account of hisi.grave physical condition, may be brought into the .latest dramatic demand for his forcible retirement', from office, Wheeler Given Great Ovation at Well Attended Meeting in Helena Under A.spices of Women Voters (Special to The.
