COMMERCE COURT
JUDGES DROPPED
BY SENATE'S ACT.
Law Creating Offices Re-
pealed In Rider to Ap-
preparation Bill.

:rhe law creating positions for five ad-
ditional circuit judges who We're as.
signed to the Commerce Court, was
specifically repealed by the Senate late
yesterday. On the previous day thu
Commerce Court was abolished. This
act, however, did not AFFECT the hold
Of the Judges on their Offices. Unless
these Judges we're 20 be assigned to diff
frrent work in the circuits a question
OF their employment remained to pc
settled, and Senator Hoke Smith took
the shortes. cut in disposing Of the
problem.
The House had provided that when
the number OF circuit judges, now
thirty four, was reduced to twenty
nine no appointments in excess OF that
numter should be made. The Senate
hnstencd the processes Of time and
lopred off the Ave judges at one blow.
Senator sutherland presented the
principal defense of the sGnctity OF
existing law and denied tEst the Sen
utc had a right to legislate these judges
OFT of office, Senator Hoke Smith
and Senator Cummins asserted that
.ust as the congress mad tie right To
create offices 30 did 1t have right to
abolish. them when useless or unneces-
sory.T p 49,.
Senator Cuinmlns pOinteu out thos
there was no constitutional obstacle to
the reduction of the number Of inferior
Federal judges. the protection or the
Constitution itself running only to the
Judges of the Supreme Court.
The repeal of the act creating the fve
additional positions Is attached to the
legislative appropriation bill. When
first proposed Senator Warren made the
point of order that 1t was new legisla-
ton. He was sustained. Senator Over
man appealed from that decision and
the chair was overruled. % to %. After
ward the repeal amendment was passed
without a roll call.
1t has been announced that President
Taft will veto the legislative appropria-
tion bill because Of the unceremonious
manner in which Congress has handled
the Commerce Court. Such action will
hold up the salaries Of legislative. ex-
ecutive, and judicial officers. except as
the appropriation provisions Of the
present fiscal year may be extended.
After the Senate agreed to take a
two weeks recess through the subter-
fuge of a series of recesses and unan-
imous consent resolution to pass no
bills. Senator Galinger introduced a
resolution extending the appropriation
provisions of the present year.

Trat Congress may remain in session

OF members here today. The general be-
lief is that President Taft will veto two
big appropriation bills-the budget
measure. on account OF the abolishment
of the Commerce Court. and the army
bill. because of the rider displacing
GeneI al Wood as chief of staff-and that
this will force deadlock between the

BON'T WAIT
NJ. C. Robbins.

Don't wait until their life-work here
is done,
And hands are folded over pulseless
breast
And cold and still the dear forms
lying now,
And they've been called to enter
perfect rest
Don't wait, but shower upon then
now your love,
And with your hand give them a
gentle touch
Oh, you could make so many dark
hours bright.
That to the aged one would mean
so much
Don't let them walk the dusty path
Of life,
Until their feet are sore and bleed
ing, too
Come to their side and lift the bur
den off.
And show your willingness for
them to do
II stones arc sharp and thoins are all
around,
If waters surge around their weary
feet.
Speak tenderly the words that mean
so much,
And it will make the darkness, oh,
SO sweet.
Don't wait until the face is scanned
with lines,
Perhaps your hand has helped i'm
press them there;
Don't wait until the years have passed
away,
And left its snowy impress on their
hair.
Don't wait until the eye has grown so
dim,
With unshed tears perhaps they
We're for you;
Those snowy hairs speak of the
crosses met,
Those trembling hands of burdens
not a few.
Then scatter flowers about their path
today
Tomorrow Srno,. it may be too late. you
Just brighten every hour that's left /
them now,
And make their lives with happi- |
ness o'erfow
The Sun of Life will shortly SET for
them.
The summons comes for them to
cross the bar;
Then you'll be glad if while on earth
they stayed,
You did no act their inward peace
to mar
