unfortunate situation in the judi

TRUE LOVES COURSE
BECOMES A BIT ROUGH

EXCELSIOR SPRINGS, Mo-,
Feb. 6. (UP)-The course Of
Harold Hulen's Shutdown" strike
for true love had been roughened
last night by threats of love while
Miss Florence Hurlbut remained
obduratc on answering his mar
riage proposal.
Hulen had hardly recovered his
good nature after filing off a ball
and chain which pranksters locked
on his ankle when Mayor John S.
Lodwick warned him to end the
strike by today noon or face a
Jail term.
Atop all that Miss Hurlbut re-
tired Thursday night without Civ
ing him a goodnight kiss. She had
favored him on the first night Of
his strike, she admitted Yesterday.
Perhaps the girls displeasure
was aroused by Hulen's advocacy
of the benefits Of drinking Excel
sior Springs mineral waters.
Widespread accusations of stag
ing a publicity stunt resulted.
Members of the younger set be-
lieved that Hulen's suit would end
satisfactorily for him. They did
not believe. however. that Miss
Hurlbut will say Eyes" until after
his Shutdown" strike is over.

months of their 10th birthday.
2. That the supreme court
have n $10,000-a-year proctor to
act as administrative assistant and
help the chief justice assign dis
trict and circuit judges to any
circuit in order to relieve conges-
ton.
3. That congress specifically
provide that no constitutional
question or injunction involving
the government may be decided
without giving federal authorities
an opportunity to be heard: and
that such cases may be taken on
"direct and immediate" appeal to
the supreme court.
Boldly the president discussed
the question Of tagged and infrm
judges" and recalled that until
recently the lack of retirement
provisions for life tenure federal
judges gave them mo alternative
except to attempt to perform
the duties of their offices to the
very edge of the grave"
Six of the nine supreme court
justices are now over the ace linn
it, including Chief Justice Charles
Evans Hughes, who is nearly "a.
The others are Justices Willis Van
DeVanter, nearly II, James c.
McReynolds. rs, Louis D. Bran
deis, 80, George Sutherland near
ly rs, and Pierce Butler nearly
II. All but Brandeis are members
of that conservative bloc on the
court which has struck down some
of the New Deals major laws.
Whether by accident or design,
six is the precise number of new
supreme court justices Mr.. Roose-
welt could appoint if his bill were
enacted. If, however, the SIX chose
to retire he could appoint new
justices but could not increase
the size Of the court.
Thus cover age" justices who
oppose increase in the number OF
supreme court justices would
have no alternative but to retire.
Congressional leaders promised
early, careful consideration Of
the proposal. They referred it i'm
to the senate and house
judiciary committees. The only
immediate adverse reaction came
from several Republicans who
charged the plan was a disguised
effort to "pack" the supreme
court. Chief Of these was Senator
Arthur II. Vandcnberg, of Mich
igan.
