EASTER

The Christian church has two great
festival occasions each year, Christ
mas and Easter. one is in celebration
of the birth of Jesus, the other in
commemoration of his resurrection
Both are symbols of beauty and faith
The church year is distinctly similar
in its form of worship during the Ad
vent and Lenten seasons. The happy
morn of the one suggests the happy
morn of the other. Man instinctivelS
yearns for life beyond the grave anC
Eastertide is to him the expression OF
joy that the winter of life yields tC
the spring of eternal glory, Easter
morn offers lure of the soul that
comes at no other season of the year
There is strange spell about it that
is positively indescribable. If one he
in the wooded forests on this morn
ing he is reminded that the "Groves
were Gods first temples, e'er man
learned to hue If one be in the
low lands, the blossoming trees with
their inexpressible varieties of frag
rance, the broad stretching meadows
alluring green, whisper of the new life
of springtime. Light and distance
paint the scene with the gOrgeousness
of II painters palette.Were one so for
tunate as to be on the broad eXpanse
of the ocean, with its illimitdble bill
Ia,,.e y,nII fpor hitbar onI thithpr with
its strange meanings as of far away
music, there he finds an enchantment
as God impellinS as ever came from a
choir invisible. But 1t is in the noun
tafns that nature unfolds her rarest
beauties ut Easter. Their majestic
peaks still covered with winters
snow frOwns with jealous awe upon
the green covered foot hills with a
multiple of deep gorges and echOing
canOns. The beauty is enhanced by
the shadows cast by fast moving
clouds, making fascinating changes in
the color scheme The sunset skies
are startling in their crimson and gold
And down in the mountains is II thing
of beauty and joy forever. God is
tomnipotent in the mountains and it is
easier to penetrate natures heart
there than at any other place. Easter
then is mans time to find himself, tC
commune peacefully, to worship de
youtly, to realize that death is swal
lowed up in Victory"

DIR. DU Bols TAKES DENVER BY
STORM.
Noted Educator Addresses Many
Groups During Brief Stay
in Denver.

DIR. w. Il. b. DU BOIS, world
famed lecturer, and editor of The
Crisis, came into Denver last Sun
day afternoon from California and
left early Tuesday morning for Pueblo
and the East. His stay here though
brief, was crowded with about as
many events as usually come to any
man in such length of time. DIR.
Dubois hurried to Denver in order to
attend the funeral of his personal
friend, c. NJ. White, which took place
ut Shorter Church Sunday at / 80.
There he delivered a short but very
appropriate euology over the remains
of his departed friend. He was then
taken to Grace NJ. L. Church, where at
3 10 he addressed a packed house
under direction of DIR. Lakeland and
the Open Forum. This was a great
meeting and DR.. Dubois was given
veritable ovation at the close of his
remarks. Monday at l p. m he was
the guest of the Denver Branch of the
y. A. A. c. Z. at n. beautiful luncheon.
This affair was made notable by the
large number of leading educators of
the white race present, joining with
leaders of our own group in fulsome
praise of the great work and leader
ship of DIR. Dubois. Seventy guests
were seated and it was about as rep
resentative an affair as ever given in
Denver. DIR. Dubois was easily him
self at this function and delivered a
forceful address. Beautiful and elo-
quent responses were given by Mrs.
O'BOyle, a prominent teacher in our
public schools, by Miss Emily Griffith,
principal of the Opportunity School,
Miss McClintock, Mr.. Jas. II. Causey,
DIR. David E. Over and DR.. w. II.
Thomas. This affair was presided
over by Dr. Westbrook. At 6 10 Mon
day evening DR.. Dubois was the guest
of honor at dinner given by the
Fellowship Club, a white organization,
with headquarters at the Christian
Church, 10th and Lincoln Here again
he spoke fOrcefully of the problems
which must be met by the best brain
of both races and met frankly. To
his right sat Gov. w. Il. Sweet and to
his left was Mr.. Jas. II. Causey. Those
of our group seated among the fifty
guests present were DR.. w. H. Thomas,
j. f. Armes, l.. ii. Lighter, Drs. West
brook and Terry, S. f. Cary, VIM.
Parks and Geo. w. Gross.
Monday Night at Shorter.
1t was at Shorter Church on Monday
night however that the high tide of
DIR. Dubois Denver visit was reached
Before crowd that filled every inch
of available space in the church, he
delivered his famous lecture on "The
Blackman in the Wounded World" 1t
was gripping story of the Negro's
part in the great world war and gave
to his hearers ii revelation of our actu.
al status during that memorable con-
flict. n musical program was rem
dered before the program. Atty. S. E.
Cary and DIR. j. III. p WestbroOk also
delivered short addresses. Geo. w.
Gross served as presiding officer His
Denver visit was closed with a lavish
affair at the residence of Atty. and
Mrs. Cary by the Greek Letter frater-
nifty after the lecture.

Annuity Is For Life

The Chief Justice OF the United
States receives only $4,000 a year
salary. He will also receive this
for life, as upon retirement either
by age or length OF service, the
pay of Justices of the highest court
continues. The annuity OF $4,000 Q
year by the Carnegie Corporation
will also continue for life.

Mr.. Taft is receiving the $1,000
grant not by reason of his status
as an ex-President Of the United
States but as an old friend Of An.

Carnegie, as his will, which Is repro.

announced intention OF pensioning

to abolish THE presidential an

4 Named IN 2 Years.

President Harding has already APP
pointed four Justices of the Supreme
Court in two years, including Mr..
Taft as Chief Justice. Mr.. Harding
Is not a lawyer. In selecting men
for that highest tribunal It is be-
lieved that. he is more influenced by
the advice of Mr.. Taft, the Chief
Justice, than by any other Individual
or group OF individuals. j..
Perhaps it is natural that he should
rely upon the judgment and long ex.
perience Of the most distinguished
living statesman and jurist Of Mr..
Hardings own State.
Mr.. Taft's long record IN publlc
life, his spotless reputation, make
any question Of his motives, char.
acter or patriotism impossible.
But Mr.. Taft is a reactionary, ana

New Judges Criticised

Since October 2 last, three men
have been appointed to the Supreme
Court bench. Two of the three, at
least, have been severely criticised
as reactionaries. The latest addition
to the court, Judge Edward Terry
Sanford, Of Tennessee. was one Of
Mr.. Taft's lieutenants in the League
to Enforce Peace.
Former Senator George H. Suth-
erland, Of Utah, appointed October
q. 1892, was described by Mr.. Taft
as "the greatest constitutional law
yer in the Senate" He has been
compared Az to judicial temperament,
etc, to Charles Evans Hughes. He
has expressed irrevocable opposition
TO the initiative, referendum and re-
call.
Pierce Butler a reactionary rail-
road attorney, of Minnesota, took
his seat January 2, 1929. Mr.. Taft
recommended him to Harding be-
fore the appointment, and after
ward urged members Of the Ju-
dietary Committee Of the Senate to
confirm him. AS regent Of the
University Of Minnesota, Associate
Justice Butler is said to have
favored limitive freedom Of
LnOugnL ana speech.
The tendency of certain reaction.
airy judges to halt progress and
prevent changes by multiplying pro-
gressive laws for the Improvement
OF conditions, was recently dis
cussed by Senator Borah, who said:
Nothing outside Of actual mis-
conduct could be more calculated,
in my opinion, to detract from
the dignity and prestige Of the
| court or more likely to under.
mine It in the opinion of the
American people than fiVe-tO-
four decisions on measures that
have been approved by Congress-
and the President.
Senator Borah recalled the famous
five-to-four decision on the income
tax law Of 1895 where, on reargu-
ment caused by illness of a member
Of the court. Associate Justice
George Shiras, jr.. of Pittsburgh,
| changed his vote. The result was
that on May 81. 1895. the court re.
versed itself and, by a five-to-four
| vote, declared unconstitutional a
law which had been passed by the
Congress and approved by the
President.
Mr.. Borah commented:
In 1895, after five days arg0-
nlent by the most noted lawyers
Of the country. there was sub.
mitted for the decision Of the
court the income tax law. The
court in the first instance de-
Clared the law constitutional.
Upon reargument and change
of view unOn the part Of one ius-
tice the law was held uncOnsli-
tutlOnal by a vote of five to four
Q57 u. s. 420).
The decision aroused discussion
throughout the country and more
pronounced criticisms Of the court
were heard than at any time since
the Dred Scott decision. The ultI-
mate result was the adoption Of
nm amendment to the COnstitu-
ton Of the United State.

Judges Discussed

Senator Norris, of Nebraska, dis
GUESSING the bill providing for Fed
eraI judges being called to Wash
ington once a year, said in the Sen
ate:
When these judges come to
Washington at the expense OF the
taxpayers, what will they do?
They will meet with the Chief JUS
tice. They win be dined every
evening somewhere. They will be
run to death with social activities.
They will be killed with social
favOritisms before they get down
to business.
That is especially true in re-
gard to the genial Chief Justice
we have Taft, who dimes out
somewhere every night. / would
MIR. President, that / do not be-
Iieve there Is any man who can
stick his legs under the tables Of
the idlerich every night and be
fit the next days to sit in judg.
nlent upon those who toll.
Honest though he may be, he
cannot get away from the atmOs-
phere that will surround him and,
ninety-nine times out of one hum
dred, will affect him and get him
i'm the end.
Or. as the New York American
said in an editorial November %
1920. on the revolutionary charac
ter of our present Supreme Court
Eminent in the law, eminent i'm
ability. and spotless in private
character as the nine justices of
this court all are, several, never
tleless have little sympathy with.
and take little interest in, the
ideas of social justice and prog
ress that now appeal to the ma
jOrity of the people. They are as
immune to the sentiments and
aspirations Of great masses Of
humanity as. were the five judges
who rendered the famous bred
Scott decision in favor Of slavery.
The New York American quoted
the last paragraph OF the Stee
Trust dissolution suit as proof thu
court MAKES and does not merely
fulfill it's sole function under the
Constitution of interpreting law:
We are unable to see that the
public interest will be served by
Welding to the contention OF the
j., Government respecting the disso-
luton of the company or the
separation from 1t of some or its
subsidia ries. We do see, in a con.
trary conclusion, a risk OF injury
to the public interest, a material
disturbance of, and, 1t may be,
a serious detriment to the foreign
trade.
This language OF theI United
States Supreme Court was in Itself
