Mr.. Metcalf said that it hardly SEEM
ed possible that thirty years had pass
ed since he sat with the graduating
class of '76 in the old Center church
He had always been firm believer in
Yale pluck and Yale grit, and had al
ways cherished a deep affection for the
old institution, and 1t was with pleas
: ure that he had accepted the invita-
i ton Of Dean Rogers to deliver the adj
dress this year. Speaking of interesting
9 subjects from a government point OF
l view. he said he had information about
' various important matters which he
t might properly talk about There was
: government control of corporations en-
: gagged in interstate commerce. The
control of vessels in the interest Of pro-
S lection to human life and property
The development of internal and for
! eign commerce. The extension of man.
:. ufacturing interests. The important
Question of the restriction in the in
Z terest Of American citizenship and
: American labor Of foreign immigration
Any or all Of these, he said, would
= prove interesting for an address or
e such an occasion. Since the declaration
II of independence down to the present
: time, lawyers, he said, had been the
! mainstay of the government. He ther
'; referred to the number whose services
4 had been exceptional in character ant
n potential in determining great results
d The profession, he maintained, had con
a tributed more towards the building VI
- of our constitutional system and thu
d orderly and effective development o
/, the American idea of the representative
Q professions and occupations combined
y 1t was a lawyer who first moved il
l. the independence of the colonies. H
a referred at length to the many promin
s. ent men who had been connected wit
"a the law, and what they had done 70
IS the benefit of the nation. After refer
ring to other interesting matters i
l y connection with his subject, he conclud
m ed as follows:
In remains now to make brief ref
~ erence to the personnel Of the third &C
IN ordinate branch of the government tn
v judiciary. The browning defect in tn
, government under the articles of con
~ federation was the absence Of any 1u
dicial power. The constitution renedie
I'd that defect and gave to us the suprem
court of the United States, which ha
been we'll termed ''the bulwark {
= American liberty"
All of the judges have necessaril
been drawn from the legal profession
Names like Marshall Story and Chas
recall the vital service the suprem
court has rendered in the critical per
iods of our history. They have blaze
the narrow pathway Of federal deye
opment; they have outlined and pc
petuated the proper equilibrium be
tween those two perpetually antagonis
tic elements in our dual system; the
have marked out the limitations upo
representative government with
