2-FOLD COURT
REFORM PLEA.
Roosevelt Urges Speed in
Action in Second of
Fireside Chats
SAYS HIS PLAN ONLY
ONE AVAILABLE

WASHINGTON, Mar. 10 (UP)
President Roosevelt last night ap-
pealcd to the nation to support
his effort to make over the su-
preme court by legislation during
the current session Of congress.
He demanded immediate action,
asserting that many of those who
urge the making over of the court
by constitutional amendment,
which would require the assent of
three-fourths of the states, are in
sincere and desire only to sabo-
tage his plan.
The president made two broad
points:
First-That the court must be
curbed because it has overstepped
its powers and "set itself up as
third house of the congress--a su-
per-congress."
Second-That the necessity for
curbing the court is so urgent
that it should be achieved at once
Dy leBlSIdlioH' -,
Without m en- t oning their
names. the president, by inference
criticized Justices Pierce Butler,
Willis Van Devanter, James T..
McRcynolds, and George Suther-
land, who voted against the ad-
ministration in the famous five-to-
ronr cold decision
The president disclaimed any
intention of seeking control OF
the supreme court and renewed
his plea for quick passage OF his
program for a "reinvigorated, lib
eral-minded judiciary"
He said he and congress had an
Overwhelming popular mandate
from three national elections to
legislate for social and economic
betterment. But the courts, he
added, have least doubts on the
ability Of the elective congress-
to protect against national catas-
trophe. 1t was to congress, he as
serted, that the trainers Of the
constitution gave the power to
provide for "the general welfare
He emphasized his belief that the
judiciary should not assume this
function.
Speaking on the eve Of senate
public hearings on his court reor-
ganization plan, the president re-
peated an analogy from his first
speech on the court at last weeks
victory dinner" picturing the
American government as a three
horse team.
"Those who have intimated that
the president of the United States
is trying to drive that team over
look the simple fact that the pres
ident, as chief executive, is him.

Roosevelt said.
at is the American people
themselves who are in the drivers

plowed.

horse to pull in unison with the

EMPIRE STATE
OPPOSES Child
LABOR CLAUSE
Defeat There in Defiance
to Pleas Of Roosevelt
and Lehman

ALBANY, n. Y, March 10.
(UP)-The assembly of President
Roosevelt's home state hurled de-
fiiance at New Deal leaders yes
terday and defeated ratification
of the federal child labor amend
ment, l02 to AZ.
Despite repeated pleas Of the
President and Gov. Herbert a..
Lehman for prompt action, the
lower house Democratic ranks
broke under a wave of opposition
and assured ultimate defeat sew
eral days in advance of the roll
call.
Only 33 of the "a Democratic
assemblymen voted for ratitica-
ton, approved by the senate sew
erai weeks ago. They were joined
by nine Republicans.
Democratic opposition was con-
centrated on the alleged Broad
Powers" contained in the amend
ment for congress. In u commun-
ication to Lehman last week,
however, Mr.. Roosevelt explained
that the only purpose Of the pro
posal was to prevent the eXploi-
tation of children in industry"
Assemblyman Anthony Canney,
Erie Democrat, broke openly with
the National and State Democra-
tic administrations, declaring:
"This amendment give to some
future congress the authority to
pass legislation supervising the ac-
tivities Of our children. Why we
don't even know whether there
will be congress"
The Presidents plan for reor-
ganization of the u. S. Supreme
Court figured in the debate which
ragged four hours before the vote.
Republicans charged that mo one
can tell what will happen if con-
gress is given this power"
