Urbanity in Criticism
Words Other Than "Lie" Can Wage War Against
Court Proposal.

"Tricky," says one Of the most
liberal newspapers in the United
States, the Baltimore Sun. And the
Sun adds some synonyms: Devious, I"
deceptive" "an intent to mislead
which Is not attractive in President
of the United States" To which the
strongly Democratic Richmond, Va,
Times Despatch adds an amen:
Guilty of lack of frankness which
does him little credit
"Adroit and not fortnight" echoes
William Allen White. He speaks of
Mr.. Roosevelt's instructive indirec-
tion."
Just Too Clever.
Even the Scripps- Howard news
papers, ordinarily strong supporters
Of the President, print in their chain
an editorial including: Our first
reaction when we read the message
was that the plan was just too
clever-too damned clever. Having
spent nearly every waking hour since
studying it and hoping to find a way
to like it, We are still Of the same
mind"
And Gen. Hugh johnson cold
Faithful" the word-geyser) on-- No.
2 man to President Roosevelt and
loyal to him as a good army man
is to his commander r-in-chief-Gen.
johnson supports the Presidents pro-
posal; but as to the President s
method. Gen. johnson says: The
Presidents only mistake was the
adroitness and deXterity Of his ap-
proach. There is sometimes such a
thing as being too clever. The argu-
ment about making the court larger
so that it could work faster didn't
check out either in logic or in fact
and it gave opponents something to
jump up and down about. Wouldn't t
it have been better to say. Here's a
plan to check the court?'" In an
other article Gen. johnson uses the
phrase slick trick: and in anotl r,
too damned slick"
Advisers Blamed.
Scripps- s-Howard Commentator John
T. Flynn is deeply disturbed by the
Presidents action, but in his COM
ment he retains the manner Of an
old-fashioned gentleman. After re-
citing the Presidents argument for
his court plan, and after pointing
out that the principal part of it is
incorrect in fact. Flynn lives up to
the code which says that President,
like king, can do no wrong-the
President must have been misled
This is most unfortunate part of
the message. I wis heartily the
President could have left it out. 1t
makes him appear as trying to de-
ceive Congress and the people. OF
course We know the President must
depend on others for his facts and
he has unquestionably been imposed
on"
