KENYON AND THE BENCH

The appointment of Senator Kenyon of Iowa TO cir
cult udgeshp matter Of perhaps more than usual m
teres Senator Kenyon has of late been much the
public eye not alone because he has been United States
senator but because he has been an exceedingly ace ana
forcefu senator. -
The appointment at this particular time takes added
significance because he has been important factor II not
the leader soaled agricultural bloc of the senate
The group of mddewest senator's composing this bloc
have apparently given the president some concern Ihey
have shown symptoms of opposition to the party program
the president evidently wishes carried out Their particular
concern welfare of the farmer it we'll be since
they represent the section of country where his interests are
overwhelming On this point it is not to be supposed that
the president bit less interest than they What diff
there be between this bloc and the president
must be difference OF method not OF desires "heher
there was political strategy intended in transferrence OF
Senator Kenyon from leadership of the agricultural bloc
in the senate to place on the circuit bech IS yet TO De as
closed Meantime mans opinion likely to be as good
as another The character of both the president and Sen
ator Kenyon should them from the realm OF susp-
cion of political intrigue. ,
Senator Kenyon will carry many elements of strength
to the high in which he will sit He is young enough
to vigorous yet his life has been so crowded with Dig az
fairs he has had the experience of age He went to the
senate from Iowa to Lafe Young who was
appointed to fill an unexpred term He chosen then
because of his high personal qualities his cleannes OF e
his nrobv wtba his intellectual attainment In the senate
he has more than fulfilled the expectations of his ardent
friends He has been real representative OF the people,
Though guided largely by the binding force OF a po1ea
faith he has been partisan when partsans was nca
ed for. He has been independent such way that none
could for the reason that his skirts have always oeh
kept clean.
1t is of the highest moment that such Senator
Kenyon put the bench there to interpret ne
of the right type than for senator's The courts are the last
citadel rights of and of property In these days
of evolution it IS profoundly important at men oI te
stamp wear the ermne of judicial authority 10 preserve
the nice balances between the law and justice calls for fine
dscernmen To hold to fundamentals against the cry Oh
and the camor radicals requires and
conviction To remain impervious to the subtle Dandlsh
ments of the so-caed interests calls for unyeldng honor
ond nnrnacbabe integrity To present ones self four
square to these and stand erect and unsulled is man
lob That Senator Kenyon will confidence IN the
courts of the land his friends confidently believe He is
not superman but his character is grounded IN the 1u
cardinal virtues and is altogether likely he will measure
up as judge the full expectations OF those VINO nave
observed his official career thus far.

An interesting but logical phase of the disarmament
project under way at Washington is the status of
class of 525 midhpmen who about to be graduated
from the Annapolis naval academy. The government being
in the midst of the excellent business of scappng its
navy and reducing its armaments there is situation in
which Othello literally finds his occupation gone. 1t is
certain to prove bitter disappointment to these young
who have looked forward to naval and who
have thus far ordered their lives accordingly And 10 add
the serious aspect of the is presented to them
the fact that just there is much less demand an
usual for in other lines of activity. Nevertheless this
purpose for which the disarmament conference
convened If disarmament succeeds tins ofthousands OF

than that will be abolition Of the slaughter of We must
