Majority Leader Kitchin went down
fighting. From the first he has been
opposed to the large appropriations
for military purposes. On the last leg
of the proceedings In congress he crit
iciSed the men OF his Owl party from

THE .JEFFERSONIAN
THE JEW SIZED 1T UP ABOUT
RIGHT

Dear Sir: A well-known Hebrew
here states that "alth> ugh Mr.. Bran
deis' professional conduct as a law
yer may not have been all that could
have been desired, the President
feels that he is superior to anyone
that could be found in the South,
for appointment to the Supreme
Court bench; and that the President
would not appoint anybody from the
South after GeOrgia's behavior in the
Frank case" He also states that
'the President does not have to cater
to the South, as he will get the vote
of that section of the country, with
out any trouble" I don't know how
he found out how the President feels
about it. Perhaps he only thinks he
knows. Let us hope that any ap-
pointee that measures up to the re-
quirements of the high office of
Justice of our highest court, will be
confirmed, and no others.
Very truly yours,
Mass. A. P. SMITH.
