be painful just the same.
Actually Pillsbury will address his re-
marks to only four justices who held the Dis
trict of Columbia law unconstitutional There
were five, bat Justice McKenna has retired.
Chief Justice Taft, Justice Holmes and Justice
Sanford dissented; they thought the court had
no right to declare the D. G. statute unconsti-
tutional Justice Brandeis did not participate
in the case for the reason that he had been an
attorney in thel Oregon minimum wage law
case years before So it is the minds of JUS
tees Sutherland, McReynolds, Van Devanter
and Butler, or one of them, that must be
changed. Either that or the new justice, Har
Ian Stone, must be convinced if Pillsbury is to
save the California law from going the way of
the District of Columbia law.
The interesting thing about Pillsbury s ar
gument, if it follows his BRIEF is that instead of
stirring up the musty precedents of the past
for the court s edifcation he brings the pres
ent day into court; he brings in the views of
State lawmakers. State executives, State and
Federal courts of today, eight Canadian prov
inces and six foreign countries; he brings in
the comment of legal periodicals and other free
agencies Of opinion.
He brings into court, in fact, the whole
outdoors. And, as he presents it, it is a COM
plete condemnation of the action of the major
ity in the District of Columbia case
Is this unfair upon the court2 No.
The gist of the opinion outside the court is
that the court stepped beyond its proper
bounds in the District of Columbia case; that
it decided the case not on the law and not on
the Constitution, but on its own view of public
policy. Now from outside the court room, At
torney Pillsbury brings the voice of the people
to remind the court that public policy must be
determined by public opinion acting through
elected legislators. 1t is not the courts func-
ton. Taft, Holmes and Sanford reminded the
others of this when the District case was being
decided, but without success
Maybe the breeze from California
carrying with it the opinion Of the country,
will clear the minds of those judges Pillsbury
is trying to convince. If he does this Cali
fornian will be real friend of the court.

immemorial prison wardenships
have been political plums. 1t was
thought that anybody could run
a prison, that no special training
or ability was reqhired for the
job. So most of them were run
that way. Wardens were appointed
and decapitated according to the
political exigencies of the moment.
But Fogalty's long tenure at
Michigan City dispelled that idea
In Indiana. His special fitness
and aptitude for the work raised
the wardenship to the dignity of
a profession-and he was kept in
the place because of ability.
AS a result probably the old,

The tiinty determination to re-
duce taxes will meet with popular
approval Actual reduction will
be greeted with wilder cheers. But
just pairing the budget will not
necessarily produce that result.
Last year the 1925 budget was
trimmed and manicured. prepare
tory to a year of municipal econ
omy.
Yet in the past few months APP
preparations of approximately
100000 have been made outside
the budget, and from indications
the city at the end of the year will
owe thousands of dollars in unpaid
bills. These must be paid some
time. From whom will come the
money?
The burden Of the taxpayer isn't
eased, no matter what the budget
says. From 1917 to 1923, the
property tax in Indianapolis in
creased over 40 per cent.
City administrations talk about
economy. Often in it's final year
in office an administration will
pare the budget and cut the tax
rate for its successor-then boast
OF it's record for economy. That's
good politics perhaps.
But such arbitrary slashing of
budget figures and tax rate brings
the taxpayer no permanent. relief.
To reduce the cost of municipal
government the expenses not the
budget figures must be reduced.
II a city administration will cut
expenditures TO the quick, budget
and tax rate will pare themselves.

OF course the steady growth is

Population figures in themselves
