II there are multitudes today who
stand aghast when suddenly they
realize the opinions Of a bare
majority Of nine Justices may nullify

legislature" Pepper said. I'VE
ought not to become emotional AZ
We read the proceedings Of the con-
vention Of the American Federation
Of Labor at Cincinnati.
Two facts stare these earnest
men in the face. One n the supreme

child labor law unconstitutional. the
other 10 the Supreme Court recently
declared the consequences Of civil
liability for torts attaches to unin'
corporated labor unions IN the saine
way In which such liability would

for business purposes.
These judicial decisions. which
seem to us 20 normal and inevitable
seem to them like symptoms of a

judiciary and honestly think Of its

OF Q usurpation a. anything that
