News Behind the News
FTeUorkS Ahead BIOUOf Seen
When Black Takes Place on Supreme
Court Violent Differences :.

WASHINGTON and foes of Senator
Hugo Black agree alike that the brief disturb
ance in the Senate over his confirmation is
likely to prove mere pop-gun stuff as compared
with what may happen after he gets on the Su-
preme Court
It is not necessary to impugn the judicial
temperament" of Senator Black if any, in order
to demonstrate the indubitable fact that Hugo
has taken violent issue with the judicial atti-
tudes of Of the sitting justices in the past
to arouse the horrid thought that he may in
troduce some of the rough -and-tumble practices
of the Senate floor to the Supreme Courts sacred
cloisterS.
One does not suggest that the distinguished
whiskers of Chief Justice Hughes are in the
slightest danger of being pulled by the aggres-
sive senator from Alabama. Ffguratively, may
hap. but never literally
The gentleman who will soon be Justice Black
has publicly charged that bare court majority
for years has been assuming the right on their
part to determine the reasonableneSS of state
and federal law. The Constitution never gave
that majority any such power Since the SEN
ator was never meay-mouthed. the chances
that he will attempt to bawl out his conserva-
tive brethren of the court, both in conference
and in his opinions, more bitterly than they
have been slammed in years Black, his friends
and enemies figure, simply has to let off steam
The conferences at which the justices air
their views to each other in complete secrecy
may never be the same again.
Another kind of trouble making is in pros
with Black on the majority side will sooner or
later bring legal test of the validity of Blacks
presence on the bench. You can't be sure, but
it is considered a fair bet that some litgant who
comes out on the short end Of such decision
will claim that Black isn't a justice and will
then refuse to obey the law
The prospect Of fighting the validity of Blacks
appointment up through to the Supreme Court,
where Justice McReynolds and perhaps others
possibly even a majority-might hold that
Black had no business there is so bzzare yet
far from impossible that the courts dignity
might he seriously endangered
Arguments have been made that no vacancy
existed in the court-a contention which made
no great dent in view of Justice Van Devanter's
retirement-and that Black was disqualified be-
cause he voted for the retirement act, carrying
retirement emoluments, under which Van De-
vanter resigned.
If Justices Hughes and Roberts keep voting
for New Deal laws as they did this year Roose-
velt will have liberal majority of to 3 now
that Black is to be a justice But there is no
assurance of that and if those twain return to
the narrow interpretations they made in the 6
to decision against AAA the conservative justices
will outnumber the liberals by to 4.
The one thing certain is that Blacks appoint
ment passes the scales of justice to Chief JUS
tce Hughes, who will now be the man in the
middle.

BUT IN THE u. S., NO
Ventura STAR


Another attempt to muzzle the press is now
on in Boise Idaho where the states attorney
general has informed the Boise Capital News
that his office wou-l furnish no more news to
the paper.
His anger was aroused because the paper
printed an editorial taking the Idaho pardon
board to task because it appeared that politics.
not justice, might decide the fate of Douglas
Van Vlsck, convicted murderer, under sentence
Of death.
That meant fight to the editor, and here is
what he answered:
The Capital News is read each afternoon
by $4,000 citizens of the state of Idaho. These
citizens elected Attorney General Taylor to Of
flee. They are entitled to know what he is doing
They are also entitled to read their editors opn-
ion of the attorney general and any other public
servant
The Capital News will continue to call each
working day at the office of the attorney gen.
eral. As long as that official wishes to remain
silent readers Of this paper will be so notified.
The Capital News and its readers can get along
without the service of the attorney general bet
he will find he cannot long get by without the
good will of his employers-the people of the
state of Idaho.
Perhaps, in Russia, Germany and Italy pub
lie officials can tell newspapers what they will
print and what they will not print. This is
America-the land of the free-and American
newspaper editors will be printing what their
conscience dictates long after Attorney General
Taylor's name is lost to oblivion"

THE ANNIVERSARY OF
WOMAN'S FREEDOM

Thursday, August 20 is an important
birthday anniversary.
1t is the 18th such anniversary of wom-
ems right to vote.
A hard-fought battle reached its vic
torious end August 26, 1920. with the
proclamation, "The 10Th Amendment is
now part of the u. S. Constitution"
This climaXed the heroic struggle wag-
ed for half century by the daughter of
Massachusetts Quaker who wanted to
set women free as voters, breadwinners,
and housewives. Militant believer in
democratic womanhood, Susan B. An
thony carried her cause to every corner
of the land through her magazine, THE
Revolutionist." Scornful of mems mon
opoly on voting, she dared cast a vote in
the 1872 elections. Arrested, tried, and
fined, for her heresy, no judge dared
exact the penalty of this popular, i'm
mensely eloquent woman.
Her death in 1906 prevented Susan B.
Anthony from seeing how far woman'S
emancipation was to advance. The num-
Der of breadwinning women increased
from 1,836,2SS in 1870 to 10,77S,796 in
1930i simultaneously the nations pur-
chasing has become almost wholly a
woman's job. Women now do $50 of
all buying. This has played a vital role
in fostering other progressive steps in
our national economy, for it is the wom-
en- who have supported and made pos
sible such significant developments as
producer to consumer marketing As
purchasers of the nations goods, they
have been quick to use the cash benefits
of such institutions as nationally affili-
ated stores whose products come directly
to consumers from producers.
The progressive spirit of Susan B.
Anthony does, in truth, go marching on
in our political and economic lifel
