Just who was the political big shot

His ears must have burned when he
went back; for several times he was
plainly told that Kent and Sussex
Counties would attend TO their own
affairs and that the Wilmington
leaders could keep their nose out of
the lower county troubles. He was
also asked several times just who

the 1888 curve will be the reverse
OF 1s37-that is, that the peak will
be in the last half instead Of in the
first half My feeling is that the best
one can expect will be a total activity
equal to l937--and that the chances
are for decline, say about 10 per
cent. However. that would still be
1912 per cent above the l923-25

Textile activity continues to be
higher than that Of industry in gen.
eral. Charting Textile Worlds index
of textile mill activity against the index
Of industrial production, Mr.. Woolf
points out that, while the textile index
was 25 per cent above 1923-25, the in
dex tor general industry was only 10
per cent above.
As for the divisions OF the textile an
dustry, cotton was the only fiber which
registered increased consumption in
1887; its use was per cent above that
OF 1886. Wool was off IL per cent, silk
off per cent, fllament rayon off IL
per cent.
The survey of sales of textile ma
chinery and accessories to the mills,
conducted by Textile World, reveals
that the dollar volume of these sales
in 1887 was II per cent over 1896 and
40 per cent above 1885. 1t was, in fact,
the highest on record in the survey,
being per cent above 1929, the first
year of the compilation.

lowed an offer q research assistant
for Latin American affairs. Shifts
have come and gone. Since 1885
Mr.. Duggan has headed the merged
Latin American-Mexican divisions.
Latin American. divisions hold
vast trade possibilities for the United
States. They also hold some knotty
problems. One Of the toughest grows
out of the conhscation Of American
oil properties in Mexico. Only two
days after the merger Of Latin
American and Mexican affairs. this
terrific row about Mexican oil was
laid in Mr.. Duggan's lap. Tho
task of the United States Government
Is to get the Mexican Government ana
the oil companies to . satisfactory
agreement. The Mexican govern.
ment offers . certain percentage OF
other proceeds Of sales-a percentage
the oil companies say Is all too low.
Furthermore, the companies insist
that the properties should be returned.
And there you are!

His brown eyes look out keenly from

and forthrightly. And he seems to
know what its all about.
The Mexican oil affair has made

Judges. Presumably the Senate would
have plenty to do In. such special
session. The President is even now
passing out recess appointments to
more than . score Of Federal judges.
The Supreme Court. and other
Federal courts, to some degree, are
in recess during the summer months.
The highest court reconvenes in
October. II the President makes
recess appointment OF Justice Car
dozo's successor. he could take his
place on the bench and serve for
three months before ever his nomina-
ton was received by the Senate from
the President. Congress will not be
in session until January 3, 1899, un-
less there Is q special session called.
However, the President might make
. recess appointment to the Supreme
Court and the appointee of his own
accord might fail to present himself
to take the oath Of ONCE and ascend
to the bench. Inquiry at the Supreme
Court reveals the fact that John
Rutledge was given recess appoint
ment as Chief Justice on July /. 1795.
His commission read that he was to
serve during the intermission Of Con-
sress and he presided over the Court
In the August term that year. The
Senate, however, when 1t convened.

cember Is, 1795. Since then. it was

The Political Mill
Political Dynamite Seen in Vandenberg Suggestion
for Special Session to Confirm Judges.

The court meets again in October.
Therefore the new justice to be named
by the President may serve on the
court for three months before he has
been confirmed by the Senate. I sub
NIT that this is not . good thing
either for the court or for the new
justice or for the country or for our
constitutional theory that the qualih-
cations Of Supreme Court justice
must be indorsed by . ma tortty Of
the Senate.
Il respectfully suggest, therefore, to
the President that-for the sake Of .
clear decision and clear title to the
place-the Senate be called In extra
session prior to October for the pur-
pose of exercising its constitutional
function of confirming or rejecting the
new nominee before, rather than after,
he takes his exalted place The coun-
try can stand . few 'mistakes' In its
political departments. It cannot stand
many mistakes in its judicial depart
ments. The maintenance Of 4 proper
Supreme Court Is vital to the republic
and Of paramount concern to the pub
lie welfare"
The nomination of Associate Jus
tice Hugo L. Black was sent to the
Senate last summer and confirmed by
that body, despite charges that he had
formerly been connected with the Ku
Klux Khan. He was not given recess
appointment, and he only took the
oath of once after he had been ap-
proved by the Senate. The President
also sent to the Senate the nomina-
ton of Associate Justice Stanley F.
Reed, and he. too. was confirmed be-
fore taking his place on the bench.
1t Is not essential that the vacancy
on the bench be filled until after the
Senate convenes in January, though
1t would be advisable. The court could
function with only eight members. It
has done SO In the past. The Presi-
dent could delay his selection OF JUS
tice Cardozo's successor until next
January, II he desired. However, if
Senator Wagner Is to be his choice, it
would be only fair to the New York
Democrats to give them notice. Wag-
ner is up for denomination and re-
election. Wagner. Of course, could be
reelected and in January appointed
by the President to the Supreme Court
In that event the neyt Governor of
New York would be in = position to
appoint = successor to Senator Wag-
ner to serve until the 1910 elections.
Unpaid Until Confirmed.
Judicial appointees. serving under
recess appointments, receive no salary
until their nominations are confirmed
by the Senate. An effort was made to
change this before Congress adjourned.
for 1t was realized the President would
have large number Of Federal judges
to nominate. since provision had been
made increasing their number in the
lower courts. A bill for that purpose
was reported to the House. but died
on the calendar. A similar measure
was stifled in the Senate judiciary
Committee. So the judges the Presi-
dent Is now appointing will have to
wait until next January and con-
firmation by the Senate before they
can draw pay. If threats made by
some Of the Senators, displeased by the
Presidents selections. are carried out
some Of these new judges may never
receive pay.
