Congress was given the power to de-
termine the size Of the court so that
the legislative branch would be able to
impose its will upon the judiciary.
This amounts to nothing more than
the declaration that when the court
stands in the way Of legislative
enactment the Congress may reverse
the ruling by enlarging the court.
When such principle is adopted
our constitutional system is over
thrown.
Salutary Precedent Asked.
This Is the first time in the history
OF our country that a proposal to
alter the decisions OF the court by
enlarging its personnel has been so
boldly made. Let us meet it. Let US
now set a salutary precedent that will
never be violated.
If interference with the Judgment
of an independent judiciary is to be
countenanced in any degree, then it
is permitted and sanctioned in all
degrees. There is no constituted
power to say where the degree begins
or ends"
The report Of the committee upheld
the right Of the Supreme Court to
pass upon the constitutionality of acts
OF Congress and of State Legislatures,
and found in the Constitution itself
this power of the judiciary. 1t pointed
out that very few laws have been held
unconstitutional; in fact that in 148
years, from 1889 to 1887, only 81 acts
OF Congress have been declared un-
constitutional out OF approximately
$4,000.
Dissents in Only IL Cases.
These 81 acts were found to be

committee insists that the effect Of
the Presidents court bill is in viola
ton Of the organic law.
mo amount of sophistry can cover
up this fact" the report says. "The
effect OF this bill is not to provide
for an increase in the number Of
justices composing the Supreme Court.
The effect is to provide a forced
retirement or, failing in this, to take
from the justices affected free exer-
else OF their independent judgment"
Admitting for the purpose of argu-
ment that the court has been wrong,
the committee still maintains that
there is remedy. II members OF the
court usurp powers, they lay them
selves open to Impeachment charges.
But if the faults Of the judges are not
so severe as to warrant impeachment,
if their offense is merely that they
have grown old, the committee points
out, the remedy would perhaps be a
constitutional amendment fixing
definite terms for the members of the
Judiciary or making mandatory their
retirement AT q gwen age.
Invasion Of Power Seen.
"This BILL" the report continues, "is
an invasion Of judicial power such as
has never before been attempted in
this country. 1t Is true that in the
closing days Of the administration of
John Adams a bill was passed Great
ing Is new Circuit judges while reduc-
ing by one the number Of places on
the Supreme Court. It was charged
that this was bill to use the judiciary
for political purpose Of providing
official positions for members of de-
feated party. The repeal Of that law
was the first task OF the Jefferson ad-
ministration. Neither the original act
nor the repeater was an attempt to
change the course of judicial decision.
And never in the history of the coun-
try has there been such an act.
THE present bill comes to us, there
fore, wholly without precedent.
I'VE are told that a reactionary
oligarchy defies the will of the ma
jority; that it is bill to 'unpack' the
court and give effect to the desires
of the majority; that is to say, a bill
to increase the number of justices
for the express purpose OF neutralizing
the views of some Of the present
members. In justification we are told,
but without authority, by those who
would rationalize this program, that

IL by agreement OF all but 3 justices.
In II cases only were there as many
as four dissenting justices.

during its history has been called upon
to pass on measures involving human
rights" and it has been the safeguard
OF these rights, the committee main

vide for the constant or persistent
infusion Of new blood into the judi
ciary. What then does it do?
The answer is clear. 1t applies
force to the judiciary. 1t is an attempt
TO impose upon the courts course of
action, a line of decision which, with
out that force. without that imposition,
the judiciary might not adopt.
Retirement Pressure.
Can there be any doubt that this
Is the purpose of the bill? Increas-
ing the personnel is not the object Of
this measure; infusing new blood is
not the object: for if either one of
these purposes had been in the minds
OF the proponents, the drafters would
not have written the following clause,
provided that no additional Judge
shall be appointed hereunder If the
Judge who is of retirement age dies,
resigns or retires prior to the nomi-
nation OF such additional judge. Let
II also be borne in mind that the

Moreover, the Attorney General in
testifying before the committee said:

addition of six judges would be harm

Three invitations to the members
of the Supreme Court over 70 years

mittee continues "One by the bill.

Can any reasonable men by any
possibility differ about the constitu-
tlonal lmpropriety Of such a course?"
Conditions of 1875 Recalled.
The committee report lays stress on
the fact that trainers of the Consti-
tuition intended that the judiciary
should be free and independent
branch of the Government, and no
one branch should ever overawe or
subjugate the others. It was pre-
scribed that the judges should hold
Office during good behavior.
Eight of the trainers of the Consti-
tuition had signed the Declaration of
Independence, in which they had said
OF their King: He has made judges
dependent upon his will alone for
their tenure Of Office and the amount

GUILTY Plea MADE
BY BANK EMP[0YE
Robert Sisson Admits En-
bezzIement and False En-
tries in Shortage.

Indicted less than a week ago on
charges of embezzlement and making
false entries in connection with the
alleged defalcation Of about $4,000,
Robert A. Sisson, 30-year-old assist
ant cashier of the Hamilton National
Bank, pleaded guilty before Justice
Peyton Gordon in District Court
today.
The indictment contained six en-
bezzlement and three false entry
counts. Sisson was allowed to plead
one count of each type, and the others
will be nolle pressed.
Punishment which he may receive
under his plea totals 10 years i'm
prisonment and $4,000 fine.
Sisson was arrested by Federal Bu-
reau of Investigation agents April 10.
He was quoted by them as admitting
the pedulations and saying he used
the money to play the stock market
and to finance his Bethesda (Md.)
home where he lives with his wife
and three children.
Justice Gordon allowed him to re-
main at liberty under $4,000 bail,
pending sentence within the next
week or so.

Eat Plenty of
Fresh Butter
Every Day

With the advent of National
Milk Week, our attention auto
matically turns to the uses and
benefits which are ours for the
asking from this nutritious and
health-giving food.
Ruth F. Wadsworth, M. D., has
prepared treatise on the sub
ject. Of butter she says that we
learned during the war it was
one of the things for which we
cannot rightly find a substitute.
"Other colored fats" says
Miss Wadsworth, may taste al
most as well, but none other has
the valuable qualities, particu-
larly of vitamin content, which
butter has"
Miss WadSworth believes that
economy may be practiced in
cooking with butter, but not in
the amount which is served
fresh to the family.

People who have long engage
ments, or understandings" and
see each other continually,
haven't enough reserves of affec-
tion to stand the long siege. Not
having any other outside social
contacts, their engagement is
apt to become boreSome. If you
spend every evening together,
soon you will become tired of
each other, and there will be no
surprises. You will each know
what the other is going to say
or do on any given occasion.
You will know each others ad-
ventures, experiences, etc. And
then along comes a fresher
face, a newer line, a point
of view less well known-and
crash! The understanding" of
many years is on the rocks.
It's different with a happy
marriage. Then you'll share re-

firmer foundation.

SHE OBJECTED TO THE WAY
HE DANCED
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear Miss Fairfax:
Invent with a young man about
three months. When I first
started, he would come to see me
two nights a week. We'd go to
a neighborhood club to dance,
and I'd always give him the
first, last, and inbetween dances.
He doesn't come any more, and
doesn't attend the dances either,
because I mentioned the fact
that I didn't like the way he
jumped around when he danced.
He's very easily offended.
He often told me he loved me,
and if he really meant it, I
think he'd come around to see
me again. I'm sure he doesn't
have another girl. What could
do to bring him back to me?
READER.
don't blame the young man
for becoming offended at your
remark that you objected to his
way of dancing. Men are very
sensitive at being ridiculed.
Write him a little note and say
you've missed his visits, and
when he comes back, tell him
you're sorry for criticizing his
dancing.

a pleasing voice, and
even a highly cultured
tone, but for this, one
must read good litera-

approved pronunciation
of every word. When
one has been careless
about the speaking voice,
the first few weeks of
study may not be very
interesting, but when
we once begin to know
the advantage OF hav-

never think of going

invitation, I see no reason for
taking a gift. If it were to be y

shower. Apparently it is merely
a party with a guest of honor.
2. Yes, you should keep your
hat on.
3. When you enter you will
undoubtedly find the hostesses
standing near one another, to
receive the guests. Mrs. John
Henry Brown will probably stand
first in the receiving line, and
will greet you and shake hands
with you. To her you might
say something like this, How do
you do, Mrs. Brown. I am so
happy to be here, and it was so
nice of you to ask me to come
and to meet Mrs. James Brown"
Then you greet Mrs. James
Brown, if you know her, or Mrs.
John Brown will introduce you
If you don't. You tell her too,
what a pleasure it is to meet
her, and follow this up by any
other pleasant comments, if
there is time.
When you leave you say good
bye to the hostesses, first to Mrs.
John Brown, then to the guest

One evening last week,
while having dinner in
a smart dining room,
we were annoyed by a
loud, raucous voice. It
seemed the man shouted
everything he said, and
in such a disagreeable
tone, everyone turned
around to see where the
voice came from, and it
was a shock to dis
cover the speaker was a
woman. She was a large
person and her general
appearance was almost
as disturbing as her
voice.
We thought with such
an odd voice, she might
at least be quiet but it
seemed, in her SNUG
way, she was enjoying
the attention she at
tracted.
This, Of course, should
be no business of ours,
but we were so en-

can't help pointing to
her as the horrible ex-
ample. At the same

nEAR Miss Fairfax:
~ I'm very much in love with
my girl, and go to see her every
night. My friends tell me that
if I don't give her a night off
once in a while, our love will
wane, because we see too much
of each other. Could this be
possible? But if I suggest that
stay home one night, she
thinks at once that I have an.
other girl I want to see and
don't want to keep on seeing
her.
I hope we can get married
some day, but I thought I'd
better get a little advice from
you, first. What do you say?
