Landis Deserves Impeachment

Judge Kenesaw Mountain Lands should have resigned
from the federal bench when he accepted the position OF
arber of baseball affairs at salary of S42500 NO
one least of all Judge two masters. He cannot
lock after the interests of private monopoly seeking gain
and at the time dsnteresedy and mpartay protect
the interests Of the people, To remain the bench while
drawing princey retainer for private practice is question
able ethics
federal judge must be above suspicion and hold him
self aoof from commercial enangements that may cause
embarrassment His viewpoint must be dsnteresed for the
honor Of his exalted position When money lures federal
judge into the commercial field he should be ousted from
the bench unfit.
There good ground for the impeachment Of Lands not
because he is sensation grand sander and lack
ing in the poise and dignity associated with his office
though these bad enough but because he disqualified
himself by engaging in private practice while on the bench
His errac decisions and arbitrary rulings have brought
deserved criticisms but his acceptance Of outside salary
merits his impeachment for soling his judicial ermine
