Chief Justice, and Justices Sutherland
and Butler-still serving-and the
late Edward T. Sanford.
Coolidge selected Justice Stone.
Hoover, in addition to naming
Hughes Chief Justice, chose Roberts
and Cardozo as associates.
Had the Roosevelt plan been in

justices would have been affected.
Five Of the IL chief justices were
more than 10 years old and had served
more than 10 years when they retired

JUSTICES HEARD
ON 1926 REFORMS
Precedent Found for Ap.
pearance Before Present
Senate Committee.
By the Associated Press.

BS the Associated Press.
Supreme Court justices may appear
before the Senate Judiciary Commit
tee during hearings on the admin
istration's proposal to reorganize the
judiciary if they follow a precedent
set in 1925.
Justices Van Devanter, Sutherland
and McReynoldS gave their views on
judicial reforms to the committee at
that time.
William Howard Taft, former Presi-
dent and then Chief Justice, was the
proponent of reforms written into the
judicial act of 1925, which is the basis
OF the Supreme Courts procedure
today.
Taft named a committee consisting
Of Justices Day, Van Devanter and
McReynolds-and later Justice Suth-
erland-to draft the bill.
Prompted by a great increase in the
courts business and a general judicial
showdown, the committee of justices
wrote measure which limited the
kinds of cases that could go before the
high tribunal.
Tafts view. as written into the re-
form act, was that the Supreme Courts
field was to eXpound the fundamental
law-the Constitution-to furnish
precedents for the lower courts and
for executive officials
Litigation not of wide public i'm
portance was left to State courts Of
last resort and to circuit courts of
appeal.
The reforms were designed to pro-
mote a speedier review of cases and
to reduce the cost to litigants.

Motorists Seek Other Routes as Pipe-Laying
 Holds Up Paving

Reports from locol garages ant automobile accessory stores thai their business and sales in the line of springs. shackles, wheels. driving gear, and general running equip. ment is steadily increasing, are sait by the experts to run hand in hand with the present condition of Bald. win street, starting at Washington Hill and penetrating deep into the Hopeville district.
 Workmen have been and are lay. ing sewer lines homeowners have connected their individual pipes tc the mains and by numerous other means, almost every section of the road which covers about two mile lineal area has been torn up.
 State highway officials refer to the road as Route 8" for during the past session of the General As- sembly provision was made that the state would bear large portion of the expense of paving the road. The delay is caused by the continuation of pipe layiug; 1t being said that no pavement can be completed until every pipe is set into place. When the paving is completed, the road will be in reality a state highway.
 In the meantime, however, motor fists and bus drivers are being driven to distraction and gray hair by the condition of the prospective Route g." Avoidance of even half the ruts and depressions, some of them in- ches deep, is impossible, and as an alternative several drivers. especially those of the Hopeville district, have been using different routes to get from their homes to business.
 As the situation now stands the city must await the completion ot the piping system.
