theirs used to be. There is still con-

the standpoint of safe operation. With each recurring-year- the increase
in the number of automobiles and the growing carelessness of the drivers

were 49,665 observations with 8,236 failures; or 16~per cent.

ItAlLItOAD FEDERALISM.
It was natural cllough.for the Su—
‘prcme Court to rule that the federal
government has pOWcr to regulate
railroad rates .within any state when
such action is the Only way to remove
unreasonable and unjust
against interstate-
commcrce." The in recognizes. as
business does. that railroad traflic
has little to do with state lines-State
jurisdiction is all right as regards
purely intra—state matters. but it can-
not been allowed to interfere. as it
:has often done in the past. with na-
tional rights.
There is some criticism. as might
have been expected. but not much.
It is the old question of federalism
versus state rights. which in recent
decades has been settled pretty uni-
formly in favor of federalism. with
the general acquiescence of the pub-
lic, in cases where the two really
come into conflict: The states still
have a. great field. far from fully
realized. for the exercise of their
own powers. particularly in educa-
tional and police functions. In mat-
ters of commerce their authority is
bound to continue shrinking.
Having made this extension of
authority. it would be .well if the
government. by congressional action
and judicial support. ,would apply the
same principle of federalism to the
divorce laws. iiistead, of continuing to
let every ‘state do as it likes. If’ it is
unfair and harmful to have 48 differ-
ent sets of rule's for transportation. is
it any less 'so to have 48 different sets
of rules for marriage?
