PRESIDENTS AND THE COURT

Judging from much of the comment caused by President Roosevets court reorganization plan, the conclusion could be drawn that the Supreme Court issue is But such deduction would be far from accurate Records of Presidents reveal that as far back as 1920 the Supreme Court was ai issue and lively Thomas Jefferson, then Presl- dent speaking on the subject said:
 Tt is very dangerous doctrine to consider the Judges as the ultimate arbers of all Constitutional questions It is which would place us under the despotism of oigarchy'
 Andrew Jackson, another grand old Democrat had this to say in 1892:
 "The authority of the Supreme Court must not be permitted to control the Congress, the Executive when acting in their legislative capacities
 Then in 1861 Abraham Lincoln that great Ameri- can and patron saint of the Republican party gave utterance to this statement
 "If the policy of the Government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be rrevo- cably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court made in ordinary litigation between parties in personal acts the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having practically resigned their government into the hands of that eminenta tribunal"
 Moving ahead to 1912 tune many of more mature years recall readily, President Theodore Roosevelt the famed Teddy, made this comment:
 Experience has shown that the people may be aroused and their legislative and executive officers may show the intention of carrying out the peoples purpose, and yet the whole movement for good may come to naught and fostering wrong and injustice be perpeuated certain judges certain courts steeped in outworn political social phoso- phy and totally misapprehend their relations to the public needs"
 And in March of 1937 another Roosevelt, Presi- dent Franklin Delano Roosevelt:
 We must find way to take appeal from the Supreme Court to the Constitution itself We want judiciary which will do justice under the Constitu- ton and not it. In courts we want govern ment of laws not of men"
 There is nothing particularly new in comment ing on the courts and the Constitution. But it is probably true that the very nature of the comments, revealing the weight of public opinion have played important part in preserving courts saving them from disintegrating in a condition which, Thomas Jefferson said. would place under the despotism Of olgarchy.'
