"And here l want to say what
pleasure it is for me TO mention

BEMIDJI, Minn-Dear comrades:
I really got shocked today. The
relief here arranged it so that they
leave the orders at the stores, in
stead of handing them to the people
they are made out for, When I
inquired if they left an order there
for me, I found cut they left a $40
order, whereas a family of five and
more get only SIS order per month.
This order also for the whole month.
I also got my state check today,

RARE INCIDENT
AT CAPITAL WAS
TRIAL OF JUDGE
PROCEEDINGS WITH SENATE
SITTING AS COURT OF I'M
PARCHMENT DRAW MOTH
ING BUT PASSING NOTICE
By HERBERT PLUMMER
nBy Associated l'resGI

WASHINGTON, August s.
During the special session of con-
gress an event-the eleventh of its
kind ever to be held in the United
States since Monday, December
II, 1798--took place in Washing
ton.
Before the United States senate
on Monday, May 10, 1888, Harold
Louderback, a federal judge for
the northern district of California
went on trial with the senate slit
ing as a court of impeachment.
Despite the fact that it was so
rare an event not a great deal of
attention was given it. Perhaps
few people in the country today
know that Judge Harold Louder
back was tried by the senate, and
probably fewer remember that he
was acquitted.
Yet, feona All indications, it's
well to A.ep this fact ii H.ind.
Something's Brewing
Between now and january the
judiciary committee of the house
will conduct three separate inves-
LEGATIONS into the conduct of occu-
pants of the federal bench.
The climax may come in the reg
ular session of the seventy-third
congress which will be convened
in January.
But the concern of the house
over this question goes deeper
than these Investigations. Hatton
Summers, chairman of the judici-
arv committee of the house, rated
one of the authorities in congress
on constitutional law, voiced this
coRcern toward the end of the ses-
sion. just after he had conducted
the unsuccessful prosecution of
Judge Louderback before the sem
ate
"It is probably true" said Sum-
ners on the floor Of the house,
whatever the cause. that the fed
eral judiciary today. in point of
public confidence, holds the lowest
position il has held since the or
ganization of the government t."
A Behavior Test7
II would say this mueh." he
continued. "If we could get rid of
say, about dozen federal judges
in this country the federal
judges, as class, would stand
high and the people would have
confidence in them"
Referring to the fact that FEEDER
al judges are appointed daring
good behavior, the chairman of
the Judiciary committee, to whose
committee alleged misconduct on
the part of federal judges is first
submitted, voiced the belief that
il was within the power of con-
gress TO set up q tribunal to try
the issue of ''gaod behavior"
All Of which raises this >ques-
ten: Does Summers eontem-
plate a disciplinary tribunal
through the judges themselves

does he favor tribunal set ap
