DIVIDED COURTS

"Why is it." asks the Chicago Trib-
une, "that in nearly all decisions Of
the Supreme Court the most interest
irs opinions are delivered by the dis
senting justices?"
This witty comment serves to en-
phasize the fact that in many Of the
most important decisions, lately the
court has been far from unanimous.
Te miority mas often been nearly
as large as the majority. Sometimes,
owing to the absence of some of the
members, the majority decision" has
actually been rendered by four men,
or a minority of the whole court. Lat
terly, as the Tribune intimates, the
minority opinion has frequently been
of sufficient force to create general
public interest and has moved large
numbers of people to question whether
that minority was not right, rather
than the majority.
There is a stronger tendency than
ever to doubt the wisdom of allowing
a mere majority of jurists to deter
mine vital questions in the fundamen-
tai law of the land which shall be
binding on whole nation. 1t is sug-
gested, with increasing freqnecy, that
IL decisions of the supreme tribunal
are not unanimous, it should be re-
uuired that they shall be concurred in
by larger majority than Give out OF
nine. Some such change seems desir-
able in order to make justice more
certain and preserve the peoples re-
spect for the law and its representa-
tives. st. Petersburg Times.
