President Roosevelt, however, is doing nothing uncon- stitutional in vetoing the Patman Bill.

He is fulling his function; in this instance, acting as a brake upon an over-Jealous, movement for reform, engineered by the strategist, Senator Patman, and backed by popular opinion Rd.throughout the length and breadth of the Union.

Hy will velo the Patman Bill, and the affairs of the nation will continue upon their way unhindered, al- though, without doshi, there will be stormy sessions in both Houses and recriminations against The
