CHICAGO, April 23-"This is
government of lawyers, and always

speech here last night at the annual
banquet of the alumni of North
western University Law School. The
profession of law has been more in
fiuential than all others combined,
and lawyers have been the dominant
class" Mr.. Hadley's speech was de-
voted largely to an attack on the res
call of judges.
IF judges may be recalled by
popular vote, we would see judges
giving popular decisions, instead of
judicial ones" he said. Laws and
procedure may be improved. and this
is constructive criticism. The recall
is destructive and is fallacy."
