The United States court of claims, of

now chief Justice, is one of the most
important branches of the federal judi
ciary, but perhaps few of the lay public
appreciate its large scope and functions.
recent editorial in The Age-Herald
relating to the nomination of the now
chief justice referred to the justices of
the court of claims as having less Of the
grind than judges in other branches of
the judiciary. William B. King, a prom
inent attorney of Washington, who is as
sociated in practice in that court with
former Attorney General of Alabama
Alex NJ CARRIER of Birmingham, after
reading the editorial, wrote to Mr.. Gar
ber on the subject and, as his letter Is
at once interesting and informing, 1t has
been offered for publication. Mr.. King
said tfrat he thought the impression given
by the editorial was that the principal
work of the court of claims was to pass
upon preliminary work done by clerical
experts who examined and checked ali
the claims. ''rhis gives the impression"
writes Mr.. King, that this is rather an
executive tribunal than a real court"
Mr.. King then says:
