The ardor OF his mastication hadn't

These facts are fairly certain:
He didn't stick the gum on his hat,
for he wasn't wearing . hat.
He didn't pass it to Solicitor General
Stanley Reed, because he was too far
away.
He didn't hand 1t to Assistant Attor-

last night that he found 80 much
more right than wrong" in the record
As citizen" go with the President in
his Supreme Court proposal.
Speaking at the weekly convocation
On 1.-The movement toward social Sc
curity," DR.. Stauffer said the Supreme
Court before many months would rem
der an opinion on the social security
act, and If it followed "the reasoning
embodied In the A. A. A. and other
adverse decisions, large part Of the
social security act will be declared
unconstitutional"
1.-THE President doubtless has this
specific possibility in mind in his agi-
tat1on for immediate action by Con-
gress on the increased court member
ship proposal" he said rs the Pres
1dent right or wrong? =
MY answer is that he is right in so
far as the practicalities of immediate
propositions are concerned. He is
wrong in so far as our fundamental
political philosophy is concerned. 1t
would be more in consonance with our
governmental theory of checks and
balances to limit the power of the Su-
preme Court by constitutional amend
ment if such limitation is desirable.
And if, as the President remarked in
