Justice S uth erla n DIS retire
ment has the effect of making
most arguments as to the
"constitutionality" of New Deal
legislation merely academic. There
has been a tendency to stop yell
ing unconstitutional ever since
the court at its last term, with the
fight over the Roosevelt court plan
going full blast, began to validate
New Deal laws rather regularly.
Now there will be five liberal JUS
tees, two middle-grounderS and
two conservatives.
Nevertheless, it may be worth
remembering that liberal Justices
Brandeis, Stone and Cardozo in
dictated in their minority dissent
from the decision which invali-
dated AAA a belief that compul-
sorry crop control was unconstitu-
tional.
And they voted with the other
six justices in the unanimous de-
cision which killed NRA. The
mere fact that Roosevelt shortly
will have appointed two justice

WASHINGTON-A distinguished
w gent from the industrial mid
die west, it seems probable, will
be appointed to succeed Justice
Sutherland on the Supreme Court.
There are several possibilities.
The fiel9 35r speculation is wide
open, except for the fact that
Roosevelt will not select a man
from the east, which is heavily
represented on the court, or from
the south, whence came Justice
Hugo Black. 1t is possible that
Roosevelt will 60 to the far west
for a new justice, since the ninth
and tenth judicial circuitS-the
latter jutting out to include Kan
sas and Oklahoma-will not be
represented on the court after
Sutherland goes.
The White House is taking into
consideration the fact that the far
western area was long represented
by both Justices Sutherland and
Van Devanter; the fact that the
important area stretching from the
Pennsylvania line to the Missis-
sippi river has not been and isn't
represented, and the most impor-
tant fact, that all Roosevelt's pet
candidates come from the latter
area.
The "pets" include Solicitor
General Stanley Reed-a Ken
tuckian; Gov. Frank Murphy of
Michigan; Donald Richberg of
Chicago, and Dean Lloyd K. Gar
rison of the University of Wis
consin law school.
Reed was ranner-up on the
Presidents list at the time he
finally decided On the appoint
ment of Black. The solicitor gen.
erals prestige has since increased.
Roosevelt is very fond of Murphy,
and takes into consideration the
fact that appointment of a Catho-
lie might wipe out the sour taste
which Blacks appointment still
leaves in, some mouths. ..a ...

CAN'T SING SPIRITUALS

Of course the white folks VINO
try to sing negro spirituals do the
best they can; but no white per
son is geared to that kind Of
thing. You could comb the white
singers of the world and you
could not get together a group
that could compare in the sing
ing of spirituals with the negro
choir Of Tuskegee Institute, Tus-
kegee, Alabama.
John R. Mott, of the lnterna-
tional Y. NJ. c. A., is reported to
have said that if the nations of
the world could hear the Tuske-
gee choir sing, "Ain5t Coin to
Study War No More" they would
line right up for peace.
Well, there's an idea. The Tus-
kegee choir could be sent all over
the world TO rthe price of bat

NOT ALL BEER & sKITTLEs

The conversation at dozens of gatherings and IN
hundreds of homes yesterday was, we daresay, all
about the 1886 salaries of corporation officers,
many of them in this state and some OF them IN
this very city "Did you see where Mr. So-and-So
gets salary of $4,000 smackers year" what
do you think of old Henry Highhat drawing down
$4,000 month? Reckon he's worth it?'
The peek into the pay envelopes of these execu-
tives was made possible by the House Ways and
Means committee, which got the information from
the Treasury. We don't see exactly what 1t proves
or exactly why such salaries should become pubic
knowledge. Stockholders in corporations have the
unquestonable right to know, of course, and at
any time may examine the books of corporations
in which they are interested. But to disclose these
salaries for the entertainment of the public gen.
orally comes pretty close, we believe TO deho-
crate violation of the confidence supposed to gov
ern the relations of government with its tax
payers
And taxpayers these high-salaried individuals
are with vengeance The biggest salary OF all
was that which General Motors paid to Alfred r.
Sloan; $561,311. Mr.. Robert Jackson already had
held aloft this juicy bit of privy information ana
commented sarcastically upon it, neglectlng, now
ever to point out that after Mr. Sloan had finished
paying income taxes to Uncle Sam and the Empire
State, he had only mere $1S3,000 left. In short
ne got one-thrd of his salary the tax-colectors
two-thirds.-Charlotte News.
