Since the right to rote Is not the same In all stales. Article I of our Constitution takes care of this for national elections by providing that "the electors I voters) In each slate shall have the qualifications requi site for the electors of the most numerous branch of the state legislature." The Federalist, famous authority on our Constitution, summarizes this by stating, Who are to be th8 electors of voters for the federal representatives? Not the rich, more than the poor; not the learned, more than the Ignorant; not the haughty heirs of distinguished names, more than the bumble sons ot obscurity and unpropilious fortune. The electors are to be the great body of the people of the United States. They are to be the same who exercise the right in every State of electing the corresponding branch ot the legislature of the State. Our Constitution has extended this further by providing that the right of citizens of the United States shall not be denied or abridged by United States or by any state on account of race, color, or prevl the ous condition of servitude" (lath Amendment), or on account of sex Woman Suffrage Amend U9th uient). Except as provided in the 13th and 19th Amendments, our Constitution gives states the right to fix the qualifications of voters but does not give the states power to control1 election of members ot Congress. (Next Week: Making the Rules) Copyright 1936 by Max Berns i ihe W H. DUCHESNE TAIIIONA ROAD NEEDED It has just been announced that the contract has now been let for the completion of the rock asphalt stretch from Roosevelt to Fort Duchesne, completing a hard surfaced road from Fruitland to Vernal, a distance of nearly 90 miles through the Uintah basin. Citizens of the basin will certainly welcome this news and no doubt appreciate the action of the road commission in making this improvement to our roads, even though the general feeling is that that body is about three years behind schedule in this work. Two stretches of highway No. 40 still remain to e be improved, the section from Fruit-lan- d through the Strawberry valley to the present end of the oil in Daniels canyon, and another thirty miles from Vernal to the Colorado state line. We have the promise of the road commission that these two stretches will receive attention as soon as possible, but are still dependent upon their interpretation of that word possible. thirty-five-mil- Of increasing importance locally is the improvement of some of the feeder roads leading North from Highway 40. Utah has received federal appropriations of over $500,000 for feeder roads, and roads Indian lands, public lands and through federal reservations for the fiscal year beginning July 1st. This will have to be matched with state funds, making approximately a million dollars available for roads such as those leading to highway 40 from the Noi-th- weekly rfO vM Constitutional by MAX Making the Rules Congress abdicate or trans power? Article 1 of our Constitution gives .Congress, and Congress only, the power to make laws. Congress, repiesenting the people, cannot transfer this power to others. But while It must set the limits, it need not prescribe the details of administering the law. The Supreme Couit interprets this liberally when It declares, Wa have repeatedly recognized the necessity of adapting legislation to complex conditions Involving a host of details with which the national legislature Congress cannot deal directly. . , . The Constitution has never been regarded as denying to Congiess the necessary resources of flexibility and practicality, which will enable it to perform its function In laying down policies and establishing standards, while leaving to selected Instrumentalities the making of suboidinate rules tiithin piescribed Until and the determination of facts to which the policy as declared by the legislature is to reply. In short. Congress may leave de May fer its g non-taxib- le . For many years now the road from Duchesne to Tabiona has been designated as a state highway and considerable work has been done on the upper end of this road by the state.
