Fourth Concert of Series Given at

The fourth concert in the series by

BILL TO ENLARGE BENCH
INDEFINITELY POSTPONED
Representative Cox Blocks Measure
for Two More Justices of D. c.
Supreme Court.

Legislation creating two additional
associate justices Of the Supreme Court
Of the District has been idef1nitefy
postponed. Representative Cox of Ohio
accomplished this yesterday in refusing
unanimous consent to the considera-
tion of this bill, which had been favor
ably reported by the judiciary COM
mittee of the House.
The measure carries the solid sup
port Of the District bar and the present
members of the court. Attention was
called to the fact that the court is
more than 1000 cases behind in it's
worl by Chairman Webb of the Judi
ciary committee. and Representative
Cox blamed the summer vacation oi
the justices for this congestion.
A bill to enlarge the present Supreme
Court was before the Gath Congress,
but failed of enactment. 1t was rein
lroduced in the present Congress and
passed the Senate last September.
While it's earlier passage would have
been justifiable. in the opinion of it's
proponents. present conditions make an
enlarged court a particularly pressing
necessity just now. An increase of
900 in the population of the District
since the outbreak of the war, with
corresponding expansion in municipal
activities and unprecedented building
operation, justifies enlargement Of the
court. declare those familiar with the
congestion of the dockets.

A Day of Snow

1t is a brutal winter day, as I
compose this deathless verse; the
snow is deep. the skies are gray,
and every hour it's growing
worse. AS from my window |
look forth, I see my neighbors
toiling past; the wind comes
shrieking from the north, and
they are reelins in the blast.
They're trudging through the
drifts OF snow. and they are cold
and full OF sleet, and yet they
show no sign of woe-for this
will save the crop of wheat! !!
This storm is worth ten million
scads!' they cry, as shivering they
pass, for they are patriotic lads,
and aches and chilblains cut no
grass. My neighbors have no
fields of wheat, they don't expect
to raise a peck, but still they
smile, with frozen feet, and snow
drifts sliding down the neck. The
storm to me means rheumatic !;
already, as | write this line I feel
the symptoms through me whiz
and tie a bowknot in my spine.
This snowy day to me looks
sweet, although rheumatics I alb
hor, for snow will save the we'll
known wheat, and wheat is bound
to win the war Thus do we all,
in divers ways, some honest 10y
atty disclose; we'll suffer through
all beastly days, if that will help
to swat the foes.
