RECALL
MUCH OPPOSED
American Bar Association Also Treats
Of Injunctions in Labor Cases at
Annual Meeting in Wash
ington, D. c.

, Washington, d. c., Oct. 2i-Emphatic
opposition to the judicial recall, a plea
that Congress should apply the same
rule to injunction in labor cases as to
other cases of Injunction, and references
{ to Panama tolls and japanese immigra
ton. are among the questions treated IN
reports of committees presented to day
to the American Bar association now in
annual session here.
Concerning the status OF judicial re-
call agitation, the committee to oppose
judicial recall reports in part as follows:
"A perceptible change in sentiment to-
ward the judicial recall is slowly but
surely showing itself among the people
of the different states. In many local
tiles its true nature is not yet under
stood In most states the average yot
er has, as yet. insufficient appreciation
Of its baneful character The work Of
education must be continued The signs,
however, OF increasing enlightenment,
due to persistent efforts OF its oppo
nents, are everywhere apparent. Former
lea ding advocates OF judicial recall are
saving less about it. Some OF them are
now saving nothing about it. Some
have apparently given up the idea OF
the recall of Judges and have turned to
the judicial decision recall as a substi
tute. Others, more adroit, have appar.
emily given up both the recall of Judges
and the recall OF judicial decision and
4 have retreated to positions less antag-
onistic to constitutional democracy"
| Injunction legislation before the pres
ent Congress receives extended treatment
by the committee in charge OF this, sub
ject. The provision limiting injunctions
in labor disputes, originally incorporat
ed in the antitrust legislation OF the
House OF Representatives, and later
amended by the Senate, is criticized by
the committee, which says;
The provision distinctly requires the |
court to apply to controversies in labor
cases different rule from that which is |
applied in other cases 70 give spe
cial privileges 10 any class OF men is 4
opposed not only to the declaration Of /
independence, but to the whole theory |
OF our government. On this point all
parties agree.
Can il have occurred to the gentle
men who propose this legislation that If
the courts cannot decide these contro
yersies peaceably they will be decided by
force The shocking results OF the lat
ter method We see plainly in Colorado.
Would il not have been better 10 have
the questions which have given rise to
bloodshed there. decided in an orderly
manner by the Colorado courts?
