DRY LAW Played
BY !. 6. JUSTICE.
Clarke Says 1t PeriIS Respect for
Other Laws.
NO MORE PERSONAL LIBERTY
Member of the Supreme Court Also
Says Mass of Trivial Litigation
Is Brought to the Highest
Tribunal.

New York, Feb. 6.-Respect for all
laws has been put under "demoraIiz-
ing strain" by the national prohibit
ton amendment, Associate Justice
John II. Clarke Of the United States
Supreme court told alumni of New
York university law school at their
annual dinner
The eighteenth amendment" he
said, forced millions Of men and
women abruptly to give up habits and
customs of life which they thought
not immoral and not wrong, but
which, on the contrary, they believed
to be necessary to their reasonable
comfort and happiness.
Thereby as we all now see they
lost respect not only for that law, but
for all laws. This has been put to an
Unprecedented and dcmoralizlng strain
in our country, the end Of which it is
difficult to see
Too Much Litigation.
The mass of trivial litigation brought
before the Supreme court of the
United States was deplored by Justice
Clarke.
He urged lawyers, in order to con-
serve the time of the court, to con
slider as a citizen rather than an adj
vocate whether the case was of suli-
cient general Importance to justify his
calling it to the attention of a body
primarily organized to deal with mat
ters of greatest public concern. He
also begged that the facts in a case
he well and tersely stated and that
briefs actually be made brief.
Like to Reach High Court.
"There seems to be a type Of lawyer
in every part Of our country who, once
he is retained In a case, no matter
how trivial, sets to work with all the
ingenuity he possesses, to impart into
the record a federal question which
he thinks may enable him TO carry it
to the Supreme court of the United
States if he should prove unfortunate
I'm the courts below" said the Justice
He added that cases came from every
part Of the earth, especially from the
District Of Columbia.
He added that, while it was not for
him to eulogize the Supreme court
which recently had been called "the
living voice Of the Constitution"-the
scope of the court has become so
fateful that the effects Of many of its
decisions upon the welfare Of our
country are so great as would be the
results Of decisive battles In great
war"
The fourteenth amendment 10 the
Constitution. prorlaiming that citizen
ship rights shall not be abridged. has
been the source of most trivial litiga-
ton. the speaker said, adding that ok
panding activities were operating to
make close second of the fifth
amendment providing for prosecution,
trial, and punishment, and setting
forth that private property must not
be taken for public use without COM
pensation.
