At II o'clock-an hour before the

House galleries we're opened to the
private citizen who wanted to pay his
respects to the late Speaker. A few
minutes later, members Of the House
filed in silently and took seats in the
rear Of the chamber, leaving the front
seats for members of Bryns' family
and members of the cabinet, the
Supreme Court and the Senate.
About 11:30 thirty white -garbed
musicians from the United States
Navy Band assembled in the Speakers

A moment later the casket was borne
slowly to the rostrum by the late
Speakers most intimate colleagues.
Then in single file House members
walked past the casket in single file

R|CHBERG URGES
HIGH COURT CURB
Unconstitutional Exercise of
Judicial Power Charged
to Justices.
By the Associated Press.

~ Jne ASSocl6teo Erees
Donald r. Richberg Of N. r. A.
fame would have the Supreme Court
bridled for what he terms its ''un-
constitutional exercise Of judicial
power"
In q statement calling on both po-
litical parties to condemn the courts
acts Richberg, who still is q presi-
dental adviser, asserted "the Amer
ican people are being rapidly forced
to answer the question as to whether
they can preserve self-government in
the face of an unprecedented exercise
Of power by the Supreme Court"
Amendment "No Answer"
Contending the Constitution per-
mits necessary" legislation without
amendment, Richberg said q consti-
tutional amendment is no answer to
the abuse Of power by the court"
The lawyers attack followed only a
few days after President Roosevelt
had said the courts decision holding
New York's minimum wage law In
valid. together with the Guffey coal
and N. r. A. decisions, had created a
legal mo mans land" where neither
State nor Federal Government could
function.
Richberg stressed, however, he had
not discussed his statement with the
President, whom he still sees from
time to time.
THE Supreme Court was not es-
tablished as q hierarchy to lay down
the laws by which q subservient peo-
pie should interpret their gospel" he
stated.
Government Of Paralysis.
"The Supreme Court cannot exercise
any Of the constructive powers of
government 1t can only establish a
dictatorship Of negation, a government
Of paralysis.
AT this time on the eve of the
national conventions of the two major
parties, there is no political PARTISAN
ship in urging that both parties should
stand for maintaining the power of
self-government in the States and in
the Nation, and that both should
stand in opposition to q creeping
paralysis Of the legislative power by
the demonstrations exercise Of Judi
cial power"

HUNGARIAN DuelliSt

BUDAPEST, Dec. 1 Q.N.S0.
Finally it's come. Hollywood has
beckoned to DR.. Franz Sargas, the
marathon duellist and defender
of family honor extraordinary.
Today the diminutive writer,
who has fought two duels and has
from seven to so to go, received a
radiogram from Adolf Zukor,
Hollywood producer, not to accept
any offers until he has conferred
with Zukor. The producer, aboard
the S. S. Normandie when he
radioed DR.. Sargas, expects to be
here Wednesday,.
The little, chesty Hungarian
may play a modern "D'Artagnan"
for Hollywood, if he still is able to
after the present duelling episode
is over. He insists he will go

so duels will be failure of oppo-

zation.
DR.. Sargas planned to issue a
pamphlet making a public appeal
to his wife's grandfather, DR..
Schober, multimillionaire banker,
and one Of those DR.. Sargas chal-
lenged to duel because of alleged
remarks the writer had married
for money. The pamphlet would
ask DR.. Schober to relent in his
action of cutting off his grand
daughter from her inheritance.
The pamphlet purports to show
the SargaS family has been of
noble line since 1925, and that the
SchoberS have been ennobled only
since 1910. It shows the Sargas
family's coat of arms, having two
men with crossed swords in duel

DR.. Schober has been receiving
an average of 100 letters a day
asking him to make peace with
