NO ADDITIONAL JUDGES
FOR COURT OF APPEALS
House Determined Not to Accept
Amendment Senate Tackled
to Bill.

Unless the Senate agrees to strike from
the District Supreme Court bill the pro
vision for two additional justices of the
Court of Appeals. the provision for two
badly needed associate justices of the
Supreme Court of the District will fail.
This is the statement of Representative
Webb of North Carolina. chairman of The
House committee on the judiciary. The
House sent the bill to conference late
last night. after Representative Webb had
made the plain statement that the House
would not agree to the action OF the
Senate in placing in the bill authority for
two additional justices of the Court of
Appeals.
When the bill passed the House the
statement was made that the calendar
OF the Supreme Court of the District of
Columbia is so badly crowded that some
times it takes two years for case to
be tried. The House readily passed the
measure. but when it was passed in the
Senate provision was made also for two
additional justices in the Court OF Ap-
peais. According TO the attitude of the
House. the Supreme Court OF the District
will not be increased unless the Senate
conferees on the bill recede.

The opening Of the river will allow

plies of these commodities on the local

looked for. This is shown by the fact
that, now the oyster boats can come

There are so many sizes of loaves of

Coal dealers have to give 4 fixed
