Henceforward "it begins as soon as a toy is old enough to learn and continues as long as a citizen is able to carry arms in defense of his coun-

I SENATOR REED I'RtiES WAR VETS TO FK.HT NEW DEAL I terp.e haute, ind.. sept. 19, (UP)—Lauding the American Legion for its nation-wide observance of Constitution week, former Senator James Reed of Missouri pleaded in an address here last night that the veterans now direct their efforts to defense of the constitution against the new ileal. Speaking in a program sponsored l,y the Fort Harrison Leagion post ii (> Reed said the Constitution veek observance by the veterans is greater service than when they charged into machine guns in France to make the world safe for Democracy.” The world war did not keep the United States free for democracy, he (.did after comparing the national ad■idni.stration with European dictator-
ships.
Charging that broad powers grant'd President Roosevelt by the last ngress were in violation of the conlitution. Reed said: "N’o man. however constituted, can v trusted with unlimited powers.” He attacked the NRA with the charge that it was denying both employers and workers the right to exercise theii individual constitutional right and said farmers are being injured rather than helped by the crop control regulations of the agricultural adjustment administration.
