D. 2O-Something About the Supreme Court
BY WILL P. KENNEDY

The Chief Justice now receives $4,000
year and the associate justices
$14 500. They are nominated by the
President and confirmed by the Sen
ate. They hold Office during good
behavior"-that is, they are removable
only by impeachment.
This life tenure of office for Su-
preme Court judges was deemed most
essential by the fathers in framing
the Constitution, as it would assure
independence OF the judiciary as a
bulwark of defense for the people
against possible aggression by the
Congress or by the President-so it
was given unanimous support in the
constitutional convention.
The jurisdiction of the Supreme
Court is defined in Article 8, Section
2 of the Constitution, which gives it
original jurisdiction in certain kinds
of cases-that is, they are heard for
the first time before the Supreme
Court. The bulk of it's work, how
ever, is to decide cases brought before
1t on appeal from some other Federal
or State court. 1t is called upon to
make a decision on only a compare
lively few of all the laws passed by
Congress. 1t decides a question,
whether any law is in conflict with
the Constitution, only when an actual
case is brought before it. All de-
cisions of the Supreme Court are by a
majority vote.
The Supreme Court occupies quar-
tiers in the very center of the Capitol
building, where the Senate formerly
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1924-12-18

We have seen in an early article
in this series that when in 1888 the
loosely Confederated States of Amer
lea formed themselves into Union
and established a new Nation, adopt
ing the Constitution, the central Gov
eminent was divided into three
branches the legislative, the execu-
tive and the judicial. We have dis
cussed in some detail the way in
which the legislative branch (Con-
gress) and the Executive (the Pres
ments under him) perform their par
ticular functions.
At the head of the American judi
cial system is the Supreme Court of
the United States, the most deliberate
and august body in the world. and
from whose decision there is no ap-
peal, except by the votes of I'VE, the
people, who. it must be always re-
meElbered, always retain all authority
for self-government, though we have
delegated to Congress and the Presi-
dent (whom We chose from among
ourselves) certain clearly defined and
limited authority.
The Supreme Court is created by
Article 8, Section l of the. Consti-
tuition, which says: THE judicial
power of the United States shall be
vested in one Supreme Court, and in
such inferior courts as the Congress
may from time to time ordain and
establish" Thus, it will be seen that
the details of organization have been
left to Congress. James Bryce in his
most authoritative work on the
American Commonwealth" gives a
most concise explanation of the rea-
sons that made imperative the setting
up Of our Federal judiciary. Briefly,
the Federal courts have been made
as impartial as Is humanity possible
with the underlying and basic prin-
ciple that in democracy like ours
the people must at all times have the
utmost confidence in the integrity of
this branch of Government. whose
duty is to interpret the law
and the Constitution, without fear or
favor, exactly as it is, unmoved by
popular opinion.
The Constitution makes no provi-
sion regarding the number of Supreme
Court judges. We now have a Chief
Justice (who is former President of
the United States, William Howard
Taft and eight associate justices.

met, and it's courtroom Is visited by
practically all tourists. 1t sits from
October till June of each year. The
presence Of six judges on the bench
Is required for the pronouncemen mt
Of a decision, which guarantees
thorough consideration of each case.
The judges wear long, flowing black
robes" as their official dress.
Each case Is discussed twice by the
court-frst, to ascertain the opinion
of the majority, which is then ex-
pressed in written decision: and
second, when that written decision
prepared by some one of the judges
is read to the others for criticism, and
final adoption as the mature, deliber-
ate judgment of the court.
Only once has an attempt been
made to remove justice OF the Su-
preme Court by impeachment, and
then 1t was unsuccessful. This was
land in 1804-5.
While most of the justices of the
Supreme Court have been men who
occupied an outstanding place in our
national Nfe, probably the most noted
is John Marshall, the fourth Chief
Justice. His decisions during the
shaking down" period Of our Gov
eminent were so important in fixing
the powers and the working form Of
our Government that he is known as
The Expounder of the Constitution"

What will the harvest be for these

Prior to the opening Of the major

Tint was rather strong state
ment to make about club that
finished sixth last season. While he
hasn't seen the west in action as
yet he stands by his original pre-
diction.
His greatest fear is that his pitch
ing will faltcr. On his club are
several pitchers who have the ability
to be stars, yet who may falter
badly.
If he gets the pitching he hopes
for, he Is positive his club will al
