EDUCATOR CH|DES
BAR OF AMERICA
Failure to Adjust Self to
Present-Day Conditions
Is DepIored.

The American bar was chided today
by Lloyd K. Garrison, dean Of the
University of Wisconsin Law School,
for what he felt is its failure to ad-
just itself to modern big city condi-
tions" and to align itself closely with
the problems of the mass of people
who now receive mediocre legal advice
and distrust lawyers.
In speech prepared for delivery at
the opening session of the second an
nual convention of the National Law
yers' Guild at the Willard Hotel, Mr..
Garrison deplored the inability OF
many young lawyers to find clients ana
the refusal Of many successful lawyers
to interest themselves in the problems
which beset most Of the people. He
said:
1T is q sad fact that the most sue
cessful lawyers, at least in the large
cities where they congregate. are cut
off from the bottom levels of the prac-
tice where, in the petty courts and the
criminal courts and the one-man Of
fees. the law touches and mingles with
the flesh and blood activities of the
great mass Of people
Danger Of etachment.
This reanoteneSs and detachment
from the living sources of the law and
from the day-to-day ills and aspira-
tions of the multitude, may explain in
part why so many Of these men. with
notable exceptions here and there.
seem to fear democracy, to distrust
the common sense of the electorate, to
distrust still more the common sense
OF popular legislatures and to behold
with apparent indifference repeated
violations Of the bill of rights by pri-
vate groups and public officials."
Nathan R. Margold. solicitor of the
Interior Department and president of
the District Of Columbia Chapter of
the guild, opened the first general
meeting of the convention, which closes
Tuesday afternoon, with a speech of
welcome. The morning was devoted
to organization meetings John P. De-
vaney, president of the National Guild
also is scheduled to talk this afternoon.
The speakers at the annual banquet
tomorrow night include Thurman w.
Arnold, Lafayette S. Foster. professor
of law at Yale University. the author

LOWERED DUTIES
Any Concession to Britain
on Fats and Oils Hit by
Nationwide Body.

The National Cooperative Milk
Producers Association, representing
$4,000 farm families In Al States,
including Maryland and Virginia,
urged the Tariff Commission yester-
day to make no concession to Great
Britain in lowered tariff on fats and
oils in the current negotiations for a
reciprocal trade agreement between
Britain and the United States.
Dairy farmers the associa tons
statement said, ARE particularly in
terested in general fat and oil prices
because of the competition between
oleomargarine and butter. Oleo-
margarine is direct competitor of
creamery butter in the markets of
the United States. The amount of
oleomargarine sales depends upon the
spread between butter prices and
oleomargarine prices
"As long as manufacturers of oleo-
margarine can obtain cheap foreign
fats and oils. dairy farmers will be
unable to obtain fair prices for their
butter"
Foreign seal oil completes with do
mestic fats and oils, such as cotton
seed, soybean, peanut. corn, whale,
fish. linseed oils and domestic tallow
In the soap industry. it was stated.
The associations membership includes
the Maryland and Virginia Milk Pro-
ducers' Association and the Maryland
Cooperative Milk Producers, Inc, of
Baltimore.
Foreign linseed oil, palm-kernel oil
and shark-liver oil similarly compete
with American products in other in
dustries, the statement read 1t added:
"Dairymen have felt a common
interest with all other pro- o-domestic
producers of oils and fats in seeking
better prices. because all of these
other producers are potential dairy
men who may go into commercial
dairying when prices for their prod
ucts are low in comparison with the
prices of dairy products"

He added: II don't think the r. F. c.

shown first that the loans are sound
and the Government won't lose any
money on them, and second that the
industry can't borrow money from

Will Abandon Efforts to Gain
Jurisdiction Over Custodial
Forces of system.

District officials will abandon their
efforts to gain jurisdiction over the
custodial forces of the public school
system, Commissioner Melvin c.
HaSen predicted today. Formal ac-
ton will be taken after the Commits
sioners have received a report from a
committee representing the schools
and the District Government.
School officials have protested that
the rider" attached to the current
appropriation act giving the Commits
eioners control over all municipal
buildings was not intended to include
school buildings.
Commissioner Hazen said he had
always felt, as a matter of general
principle that the Commissioners
should have complete control over the
school system. but that Congress had
not seen ft to make that change. Some
time ago he said that If the residents
are opposed to that idea lit is all
right with me-" He said he saw no
particular merit in having the Com
missioners have control over the Gus
todial school forces while the Board
Of Education had control over the
teaching force and other school en-
ployes.
