FOUR JUSTICES
NAY RETIRE

If justices of the Supreme Court
of the United States exercise their
retirement rights during the
Roosevelt administration the in
coming President will have the re-
sponsibility Of almost making
over the highest tribunal.
However, four justices now ELI
gible for retirement and two more
who will become so during the
Roosevelt term are vigorous and
in good health and wholesale re-
tirements are hardly expected.
Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes,
who recently resign ed, was eligible
to retire for years, but remained
on until he reached the age Of 81.
Supreme Court justices now
eligible for retirement are Van
Devanter, McReynolds, BrandeiS
and Sutherland. During the next
Administration Chief Justice
Hughes and Justice Butler will
reach retirement age and service.
Members of the highest tribunal
may retire on full pay after reach
ing the age of 10 years, and after
having served 10 years.

waterway PACT
FACES REVISION

A warning that the treaty be-
tween the United States and
Canada for joint development Of
the Great Lakes-tothe-Sea project,
if ratified by the Senate, will
threaten the harmonious and
pleasant relations" between the
two. countries, was made today by
Peter G.. Ten Eyck, president Of
the New York State Waterways
Association before a Senate For
eign Relations subcommittee.
This was the opening barrage
Of a concerted attack against the
treaty by the New York State
Waterways Association, the rail
roads, and the Buffalo Chamber
of Commerce. S@
Representatives Of the latter
two interests were present to sup
port Ten Eyck when the Senate's
hearings on the pact were started
by Chairman william E. Borah,
of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee.
With President-elect Franklin
D. Roosevelt repeatedly opposed
to the treaty in its present form,
and Borah mot entirely satisfied
with some of its provisions, 1t was
considered highly probable the
treaty would be revised before its
approval by the Senate.

prove.
Declaring that ''hard times
proved the real victor in the
election, he adds:
Hoover did not lose and
Roosevelt did not conquer. The
tornado which swept the world
Overcame American politics.
This elemental force - the
product Of war and economic
cOllapSe-haS created revOlu-
tiOnS everywhere, set up dicta-
tOrships, inspired cOmmunist:c
upriSings and upset all political
calculations. We now look to

unity should be our method;

About 60 industries in the

Colonel Rupert would use in one
year 100000 bushels of grain,

require ITS new trucks, which
would represent an additional in
vestment of $1,000,000, and he
