Conxressman Brand, Democrat OF

ing for the appointment OF temporary
judges TO sit in the places OF oisquah-
ned members OF the court
The bill provides that when one
or more OF the judges OF the supreme
Court of the Unied States are ais
ouallned from deciding any case, by
interest or otherwise, the President
OF the United States Is authorized
and Il shall be his duty TO designate
and appoint a Judge, or judges OF me

The court would be required. under
the terms OF the bill, TO promptly
notify the President as soon as IL
should be determined that any Judge
were disqualified. and the designa-
ton of a substitute Immediately made:
"The necessity for this legislation
said CONGRESSMAN Brand, ARISES
from the fact that In the recent steer
case, which was very important the
majority opinion was NOT ieh"'a W

Justices McReynolds and Brandeis
were the two members of the court
who did not sit in the Steel trust case.
The former was Attorney General at
the time the suit was Instituted and
the latter had been connected as
lawyer with the development OF the

The presumption at the time was
that IL these members OF the court
