Measure of Success
In his address at the bar associa-
ton luncheon, Mr.. Hughes, after re-
marking on the similarity of the Bra
lillian and American political insttu-
tons, told his hearers:
Liberty must have its institutions
which are necessarily institutions of
law, institutions for the application of
the accepted principles of right con-
duct, rather than vehicles for the ex.
ercise of arbitrary power.
Such institutions rest for their fl
nal security in the self-restraint OF
those who love liberty too much to
destroy its essential foundations.
ut is in the administration of JUS
tice through the courts and in the
standards of the legal profession thai
we find unfailingly the measure of oul
civic success"
