The Court Vacancy

MOT only in Washington but throughout the country,
~ support is steadily mounting for the appointment
Of Senator Joseph T. Robinson to the Supreme Court
seat to be vacated by Justice Willis Van Devanter
Justice Van Devanter leaves the high bench June
after nearly a generation Of service.
AS soon his intention to retire was announced the
of Senator Robinson instantly suggested itself
to informed observers the logical choice for his
successor.
There abundant why Senator Robinson
thus stands out ahead of all others mentioned for the
post in the estimation of the public.
He has had long and distinguished career in the
nations Government, career which has made him
truly national figure.
He is lawyer of ability known such not only in
his own State but throughout the United States.
He has been associated with much progressive legis-
laion and majority leader in the Senate has put the
Administration deeply in his debt by his faithful sup
port Of its program.
And as liberal rather than radical he represents
that sound tradition of orderly progress as opposed to
revolutionary change which is the hallmark of the best
American craftsmanship.
If President Roosevelt appoints Senator Robinson
the Senate will confirm him IMMEDIATELY AND
UNANIMOUSLY and the sentiment of the American
people will enthusiastically ratfy the choice.
The Washington times., 1937-05-28

There is no such thing as per-
feet Self.expression. Everything
you do is conditioned by the acts
and attitudes of other people, and
expresses them as well as you.
Every act must be a compromise
if you would live harmoniouSly in
a crowded world. Part Of that act
expresses your desire, part Of it
expresses the other fellows desire
and part of it expresses the de.
sires and decisions of millions Of
men long dead.
SELF-EXPRESSION
The only persons who have 100
per cent self-expreSSion are in
insane asylums. That's why
they're there. They'd raise Cain
anywhere else.
People who will not, or cannot
cooperate and compromise are as
dangerous as wild beasts.
And what is true of life in gen.
eral is also true of marriage
only more so. This notion that

marrying Bill White is pure

tribute the tang and tempo of that
individuality to their ensemble.
But she cannot ever again be her
self if she is successfully married
to Bill.
Betsy ceased being herself the
first time she kissed Bill. From
that date on, she was a part Of
Bill and he was a part Of her.
They were no longer two Sepa-
rate individuals who liked each
other. Their lives had merged.
Henceforth they were to share
each others gladness and sad
ness, madness and badness.
That mysterious mingling Is
marriage. It is the only real mar
riage. If it doesn't happen to you.
then you're not married-and all
the churches and licenses IN
Christendom can't make you one.
TEAMWORK
Nor are we merely bound by the
mysteries in marriage. We are
bound quite as firmly by more

are bound by grocery bills and
rents and neighborhood quarrels
and broken screen doors and little
Jimmy's tonsils.
Such considerations may, and
usually do, seem very contemplate
to fiery souls longing for selt-ex-
preston.
But just try to do without eating
for a while and see how long your
soul stays fiery. Dig up your own
rent money, lady, and see how
much chance you have for SELF
expression.
If a husband cramps your style,
what do you suppose a boss would
do to you?
II you must be yourself, dig a
burrow or get a soap box and pro-
coed to do your stuff-but don't
get married. Marriage is team
work, or it's nothing at all.

who stands for all that conserva-
tive England holds down; the
very exemplification of duty per.
formed at any cost. He Steered
the Ship of State through stormy
waters, determined to keep the
peace, upholding democratic gov
eminent against all the dangerous
isms that had brought turmoil
and great fear to Europe. His
services have been great, but,
doubtless, history will place him
as the British prime minister who
forced much-loved king from the
throne.
His successor, Neville Chamber
lain, of the Birmingham House
of Chamberlain, has achieved what
was denied the ambition Of his
noted father, Joseph, and Of his
celebrated brother, Austen-the
premiership. Upon his shoulders,
more than upon any other states
man, rests the terrific RESPONSE
bility Of preserving the peace Of
Europe.
THE CHAMBERLAINS
All three Chamberlains moved
from the blast furnaces Of Biz.
mingham to Whitehall. A most
interesting breed, these middle
class Chamberlains. Oddly enough,
they have been both Tories and
reformerS. In housing, bank con-
troll, slum clearance and social
welfare programs, they have been
more daring than many OF our
Washington New Dealers.
Joseph Chamberlain, Of Biz
mingham, the Chicago of England,
was a Sunday school teacher and
industrialist, who launched moral
fervor against Birmingham'S graft,
dirt and human degradation. He
made an amazing one-man clean
up, which sent him to Parliament
and made the Chamberlain name
and fame. His sons, the late Aus
ten and the living Neville, were
half brothers. Austen. the elder,
rode high in British statesman
ship for years, but missed the
grand prize. Neville, chancellor OF
the exchequer since 1881, won it.
Neville exemplifies traits the Brit
ish Observation-Disclosures thrift,
sound business methods, hard
work, courage and patience.
Years ago I had a glimpse OF
Joseph Chamberlain in Parlia'
ment. Some clever Birmingham
sartorial molder had poured him
into his morning coat. His orchid,
never absent from his lapel, was
a gonfalon-his trademark. like
General Dawes undressing pipe.

John Sharp Williams umbrella.
I was interested then in inquir-
ing about the origin of Mr.. Cham
berlain's Self-dramatization, and
there came to light a facet of the
shrewd Chamberlain mind which,
it seems to me, should be in the
beginners manual of all states
men. He was a careful, meticu-
lous conformist in all essentials
and, hence, could be a non-con-
formist in anything really impor-
tant. The orchid, the monocle and
the morning coat were all coldly
premeditated. It came about this
way:
Joe Chamberlain, in dress and
demeanor, was just a run-of-the-
mill Birmingham business man
and politician. Planning to branch
out in national politics, he schooled
himself in Suave. mellifluous and
grammatical speech, in the ornate,
rocco oratory of the Victorian
age. He had some disturbing ideas
to take to London, and he sought
the protective coloring of outer
conformity. Advance word of the
coming Of this iron-monger, this
parvenu, had reached stuffy gov.
eminent circles.
STAGE PROPERTIES
Chamberlain had been tanning
up ideas which had an ominous
suggestion of republicanism, and
Queen Victoria was agitated
There was good deal of eye-lift
ing in Whitehall. They awaited an
uncouth disturber. Chamberlain
stopped the show. He had an Ok
ford accent, and he outmatched
the best of them in cut and fit Of
his clothes and his orchidaceous
trimmings.
Austen Chamberlain inherited
his fathers stage properties in
Guiding the monocle and orchid
Neville, his ideas and his ability
Austen went far with his orchid
but Neville seems to be going far
ther wGh his brains. He doesn't
need the orchid and the monocle
In 1918, when Neville Chamber
lain went to Parliament, he wa!
nearly so years old. He is Ions
and gaunt, with grazing hair, ano
his eyes are blue and deep set. He
is heavy rather than a juvenile
as any good casting director would
place him. He is hedged about
with impenetrable reserve. He en-
tertains occasionally, but moi
laviShly: likes hunting and fish
ing and long cross-country walks
likes to SLOUGH around in ole
Stacks, puttering with a spade.
It's hard for us to understand
such enigmas of British states
manship. Neville Chamberlain ii
frankly, in fact. vehemently,
Tory, and yet, when he was made
minister of health in 1928, h
started a housing program II
which he obliterated slumS, bull
100000 new houses, affrontinl
rugged individualism in the mos
un!Torylike manner. When LORI
Mayor of Birmingham, as hi
father had been, he established
] the first municipal Bank Of Eng
land.
He's a bit dull at times, but tina
does not matter in England. To-
much brilliance is often suspec
there.
