| I | THE REPRESENTATIVE, OR REPUBLICAN, FORM OF GOVERNMENT, CAREFULLY CHOSEN BY THE CONSTITUTIONAL
CONVENTION IN 1787 AGAINST DEMOCRACY OR DIRECT ACTION BY THE PEOPLE, WAS FIRST
UNDERMINED BY THE STATES | 3 |
| II | LONG-CONTINUED ATTEMPTS BY
CONGRESS TO INTIMIDATE THE supreme COURT, ACCOMPANIED BY HYPERCRITICAL WRITINGS
OF POORLY INFORMED UNIVERSITY MEN AND OTHERS, LED UP TO THE ATTEMPT OF THE
PRESIDENT AT COURT PACKING IN 1937 | 14 |
| III | IN FAVOR TO POLITICIANS AND TO
LABOR UNIONS, CONGRESS PURSUED ANOTHER METHOD OF ATTACK ON THE COORDINATE
JUDICIAL DEPARTMENT | 40 |
| IV | THE SIXTEENTH OR INCOME-TAX
AMENDMENT, HAVING OPERATED IN VIOLENCE TO AMERICAN PRINCIPLES RESPECTING
PROPERTY AND JUSTICE, SHOULD BE REPEALED | 51 |
| V | FOLLOWING THE INCOME-TAX AMENDMENT IN 1913, THE NEXT VIOLENCE TO CONSTITUTIONAL PRINCIPLE WAS UNDERTAKEN IN 1916 BY A SOCIALIST-MINDED GROUP SEEKING TO BREAK DOWN THE TENTH AMENDMENT AND HAVE WASHINGTON ASSUME POLICE POWER IN THE STATES OVER PERSONS UNDER THE AGE OF 18 YEARS | 83 |
| VI | THE LONG-PURSUED PURPOSE OF CONGRESS TO CROSS THE BARRIER OF THE TENTH AMENDMENT AND ENTER THE POLICE FIELD OF THE STATES, OFTEN CHECKED BY THE COURTS AND THE PEOPLE, WAS ACCOMPLISHED BY THE PACKERS AND STOCKYARDS ACT OF 1921 | 96 |
| VII | THE RECONSTRUCTION FINANCE CORPORATION WAS CREATED BY CONGRESS WITHOUT AUTHORITY GRANTED TO IT BY THE CONSTITUTION, AND ITS OPERATIONS HAVE BEEN BEYOND THE SPHERE OF GOVERNMENT | 102 |

| IX | IN MAY, 1933, CONGRESS, BY THE AGRICULTURAL ADJUSTMENT ACT, UNLAWFULLY PERMITTED THE PRESIDENT TO REDUCE THE GOLD CONTENT OF THE STANDARD DOLLAR | 133 |

| XI | THE NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS ACT OF 1935 WAS A VICTORY FOR CAESARISM OVER THE STATES AFTER A CONTINUOUS BATTLE FOR TWO DECADES | 161 |
| XII | BY THE SOCIAL SECURITY ACT OF AUGUST, 1935, FOLLOWING THE NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS ACT OF JUNE, THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE PEOPLE IN CONGRESS STRIPPED THEIR STATES ALMOST ENTIRELY OF POLICE AUTHORITY | 181 |
| XIII | THE CONSERVATION OF SOIL IN FARMING STATES BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS NOT AUTHORIZED BY THE CONSTITUTION | 202 |
| XIV | THE EXPANSION OF THE CONSTITUTION BEYOND THE LETTER AND SPIRIT THROUGH JUDICIAL LEGISLATION BY THE supreme COURT OF THE UNITED STATES IS, BECAUSE INSIDIOUS, THE WORST THREAT TO LIBERTY AND PROPERTY | 207 |
| XV | THE COURSE OF PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS DURING THE LAST FORTY YEARS HAS MADE CLEAR THAT THE SAFETY OF THE REPUBLIC REQUIRES RETURN TO STRICT CONFORMITY WITH THE DIRECTIONS OF THE CONSTITUTION | 254 |
