tendency to change - In his now
historic lecture on the court.
Keep Thoughts 70 Selves
What do the justices think OF all
the suspense and anxiety and ex-
element which their latest decisions
have caused? II Is hard to tell. Only
a few - Messrs. Hughes, Roberts and
Stone - move through the Capitals
drawing rooms. and they rarely dis
cuss their affairs publicly. Though
they 60 thair way slowly and solemn
". and seemingly indifferent TO the
chatter and headaches they cause
they cannot escape the echoes. Pass
ing to and from their homes, and
strolling through Congressional COR
ridors, they overhear discussion OF
the trend and end Of their delibera-
tons.
Were not Justice Roberts a human
and humorous fellow. this abnormal
interest In judicial proceedings might
have proved embarrassing. At a
dinner party given before the gold
decision. a fellow-guest who had not
caught the iurist's name on intro
duction swung around and said to
MI. Roberts: "Of course, the court
won't dare to upset the gold order!"
Some justices might have walked
away for fear Of such earthly faint.
But the amused Roberts lifted his
arm In mock reproof and replied:
Don't try to intimidate the hon
orable COURT"
At another dinner party - even
Supreme Court Justices must eat
one member remarked that their
decision in the hot oil" cases had
received favorable editorial COM
ment. When another diner express
ed establishment at this interest In
the editorial reaction. comparing It
to a politicians jitterineSs over
handling Of his maiden speech, the
Justice leaned across the table.
MY boy" he said, we're all very
human"
So they are. IT is a comforting
rather than a disturbing thought,
solemn and constitutional killjoys TO
the contrary.
Although the new structure which
they entered only a few days ago is
one of the most beautiful at the
Capital, the venerable Justices do
not like It. They would have pre-
ferred to remain in the gloomy,
colonial room where Clay and CAL
houn made history when it was the
senate chamber. Justice Stone says
that the new building looks ike
Nero's bath instead Of a house Of
justice" Another member says the
nine judges will look like nine
cockroaches" in the vast reaches Of
the hearing room. and that the
court will lose prestige in this archi-
tectural atmosphere.
It was the late Chief Justice Taft
who lobbied for construction of the
new court house. He believed that
the high court should be sheltered in
a building symbolic Of its might. He
favored a strong, Hamiltonian gov
eminent, and he envisaged the new
structure as a symbol Of vast and
expanding federal power. Indeed.
he might have voted for the New
Deal had he carried this conception
into judicial thought and express
sion.
Mr.. Taft was happy a. a child on
Christmas Eve when he first saw
the architects model Of the new
building. It stood in the lobby Of
the senate office building, and he
rushed to visit il. Proud Of his plan
ming, he 'phoned the courts Mar
shall to ask the eight other justices
to join him in gazing upon the IN
iature Of their new home. Not a one
needed the order

Wells Torn Aside

Thus these nine lonely men, who
carry their noon lunches with them
and munich their oranges. apples and
sandwiches behind barred doors,
have come into their own. For two
years, as the R~oo6eveltian expert
ments unfolded, they have had TO SIT
silent on the sidelines, watching and
waiting.
Their black gowns Of grosgrain
silk, which cost $l25 each unless, like
the more fastidious Oliver Wendell
Holmes, they preferred richer vest
ments, screened them from the realm
where politicians and presidents
move. But now the wells have been
torn away. Their hermit-like role
has been cast aside. and they appear
on the everyday scene as arbiters OF
American destiny.
Mr.. RooSevelt's suggestion - like
Lincoln's - that their dicta must De
reversed II the federal government
is To supervise national problems, has
provoked some criticism and resent
ment. Many people regard the court
as a fixed and immutable body. This
viewpoint Is wholly erroneous. as a
superficial study Of the courts re-
cord reveals.
The court can. as a matter OF fact,
say almost anything 1t pleases. IL
is that kind Of a court. 1t can, and
II has in the past. taken cognizance
OF practical realities. 1t reacts.
though slowly, TO the needs OF a new
day. In fact. some experienced law
yers and judges refer TO its a the
court OF the last guess" Its mem
berS admit that this Characterization
posses some truth.
The late Chief Justice White sat
on the bench long enough TO hear
his minority opinion eventually ex-
pressed as the majority view. JUS
tice Brandeis, not so long ago. per-
mitted himself a Enthusiastically
gentle and p%atriarchal smile. Lean
ing forward, his reading lamp cast
ing an almost legendary light on his
benign profile, he heard a conserva-
tive colleague - Justice Sutherland
.-expound the Brandeis doctrine Of
social and economic control. Less
than two years before Justice Suth-
erland had read a majority opinion
which outlawed the Brandeis type Of
experimentation.
The courts decision In the NRA
case stands repudiated and contra
dicted by several decisions which II
has made within recent years. It
is almost impossible to reconcile its
MIRA definition Of interstate COM
nero with its characterization as
laid down in the second Coronado
and the Appalachian cases. Presi-
dent Roosevelt jabbed ironically at
this inconsistency - or rather this

tiers, he may relegate II to q fairly
obscure place in the American sys-
tenn. There Is no certainty that he
can succeed In forcing this ancient
body to conform to modernity - to
the social and economic interdepend-
ence never dreamed Of by the Found
ing Fathers when they prohibited
delegation Of power to the president
and limited the federal govern
ment's authority over interstate COM
merce.
The Supreme Court Of the United
States means a great deal to the
American people. even though their
ignorance Of its past history and Its
personal foibles is colossal. They
will not tolerate a capricious move
ment to deprive 1t Of its guiding pow
er over our destinies. They must
first be convinced that a far-reach-
ing alteration Of the constitution Is
necessary to fit 1t to modern living
before they will acquiesce In any in
fringement, constitutional or other
wise, on the courts prerogatives. Be-
lated relaxation Of the existence OF
that sentiment has halted any pre-
cipitate movement to shove the court
out Of the national picture.
The courts sway is more than ma
tional. The concern which its re-
cent decisions has stirred abroad Is
amazing. Before it decided the gold
case, England was all ears. Lloyd's
was besieged with requests for in
surance against and for the decision
Though the London firm wagers on
a Madison Square Garden perform

not gamble on the court. A sensa-
tional London newspaper, however,
exhibited a curiosity almost with
out precedent in journalistic circles,

State Department officials last
night confirmed reports from Santi-

Sewer was in this country for a

unless his health improved.
State Department officials said no

willingness to go to Santiago.
Sewer. for many years a newspaper
