WASHINGTON, June IA. = The Senate Judiciary Committee today recommended jection of the Roosevelt court reform bill in blist- ering language, branding it as needless, futile, utterly dangerous abandonment of constitutional prin- ciples."
 The majority report was signed by seven Democrats and three Re- publicans and said:
 Tt should be emphatically re- jected. Its parallel should never again be presented free represen- tatives of free people in America" !"
 "One- Man" Government
 The 10,000-word report echoed virtually all the objections raised in the seven weeks hearing. It declared the bill would not accom- plish it's purpose but would destroy independence of the judiciary and make government by lone man rather than by law"
 The majority insisted that it contains the germ of a system of centralized administration of labor that would enable the Executive so minded to send his judges to every judiciary district in the land and sit in judgment on controver- sies between the Government and the citizen"
 Seek Compromise
 Administration Senators said they had virtually abandoned the pro- posal of adding five new judges to the Supreme Court but would start at once trying instead to work out compromise whereby elderly jus tices would be augmented or re- placed at the rate of one yearly.
 Senators signing the majority re- port were King, McCarran, Van Nuys, Hatch, Burke, Connally, O'Mahoney, Borah, Austin and Steiwer Those favorable to the bill were Nicely, Logan. Deitrich, McGill, Pullman, Hughes, Ashurst and Norris.

 MT. Burdick reported that the party went from here to Cordova, Seward and then over the railroad to Anchorage and Palmer, center of the Matanuska Colony where they spent day going over the project. They were impressed with the progress of the Colony and the Forest official declared there ap- parently was nothing which could keep the agricultural experiment from being success now if the farmers continue to work as they have been doing A half million dollars worth of produce has been shipped into the rail belt in the last year which could be produced by the Palmer farmers, Burdick said, assuring the Colonists of a market when they bring their lands to full production.
