The Court Conferences

WHAT seemed to pin these
w words down closer to the
rather well-known condition
within the court was a single
additional sentence:
I'm the discharge of its work,
the conference of the court is
Of greatest Importance, and
there the court discusses and
decides cases which have been
heard and passes upon applica-
tions for permission to be
heard"
It is no secret that the court
has been having plenty of
trouble with the former head Of
the Senate Lobby Committee in
its private conferences.
While the Hughes address
was prepared before a recent
magazine article was published
on the subject, it is well known
that Justice Black had been
practicing politics rather than
law for a long period before his
appointment; that he has some
novel ideas about the law; that
the other Justices have had a
hard time getting either into
agreement or disagreement with
him; that even those on his side
Of a decision have had trouble

AIRPORT ROAD
DEAL CLOSED

ARLINGTON, Va, May IA.
After presenting $4,000 check
to the Arlington County Board
this morning, Samuel ]. Solomon,
manager of the Washington Air
port, said he planned to close the
section Of Military Roard running
through the airport, on Monday.
The $25, 900 check was presented
to Mrs. Elizabeth B. Magruder,
chairman of the board, in hne
with a recent act OF Congress au-
thorizing closing of the airport
road after Arlington county had
been paid $25, 900 for construction
of a substitute highway around
the airport.
Army officials today are to de-
termine the proper location of bar.
riers for closing the road, Solo.
mon said. He expected to have
work started soon on filling in the
road to bring it to the level of the
flying field.
Closing of the airport road will
permit enlargement of the landing
field, and will eliminate the haz-
ard of automobile traffic now
faced by pilots in taking off and
landing. Airport officials have
tried for several years to have
the road closed.

FIibusfer Likely

COUTHERN Democrats in the
~ Senate have held several un-
official pow-wows lately consid-
ering what to do about the wage
hour bill which now has no
Southern differentails. Most of
them want to filibuster. They
believe one can be justified on
the ground that the bill would
destroy whatever wage advan-
tage Dixie now has, would send
industry back to New England.
An older, wiser political au-
thority among them, however,
suggested at one recent discus
sion that they should let the
bill go through as 1t is. His
view, from the political stand
point, was that it would restore
the Democratic party to its old
standard.
This may explain why there
has been some indecision about
filibustering, but the chances
are, in the end, a filibuster will
be attempted, and if attempted,
will be successful.

whipping their views into line
with his.
Blacks Record

IF NO direct information were
l. available concerning the situ-
alton, 1t would be apparent from
the public announcements of the
court itself. Justice Black has
read decisions for the court in
13 cases and has dissented from
majority opinions IA times. In
other words, Black has dissented
more often than he has led the
court, a distinction no other
justice has.
On the other hand, Justice
Reed, who was acquainted with
Supreme Court procedure before
his appointment and who shares
in general the same economic
and political views as Black, has
read six decisions of the court
and has diSSented twice in his
much briefer period on the
bench. AS a result there is quip
current among court followers:
Justice Black diSsents again"
which is supposed to draw a
laugh. Nobody laughed when the
other famous dissenter, the late
Justice Holmes, issued his con-
testing opinions.
Lawyers. then looked at them
to find out what the law would
be a few years hence.
The least Interpretation that
the near-insiders of the court
are putting on the Hughes re-
marks is that the Chief Justice
was urging Mr.. Roosevelt to
watch his judicial appointments.
The strongest would not be in
keeping with a mild column like
this one.

tory in the Florida Democratic

.uCe Hits WOOdring,
Pledges Hitler Aid

ly NO to a diplomatic move Tor
joint action"
Mussolini accused anti-FaScist
powers of hoping that the worst
complications, not excluding war
would ensue from Germany's
action, "even if it had left the
gates wide open for triumph OF
fasciSn in Europe"
WISDOM" EMPHASIZED
"It was not necessity" said
II Duce, "but our own will which
guided our attitude. All that
has happened since shows that
we were inspired by wisdom"
Referring to the death of the
Stresa front, he added:
ITALY could not allow her
self the luxury of mobilizing
regularly at the end Of every
four years to prevent the in
evitable conclusion ofta national
revolution.
Fascist Italy could not in
definitely assume the hateful,
useless task of protecting the
Austria of the Hapsburgs and
Metternich, the task Of oppos-
ing the progress of a nation
toward unity.
"It was not from fear Of
complications that we acted
thus. For this fear has never
lodged and never will lodge in
our minds. But it was a sense
of our duty, our honor and our
loyal friendship to Germany
which counSelled us to do what
we have done.
HITLER WELCOME RECALLED
"For the Germanic and Ro-
man worlds are in immediate
contact, their friendship in a
lasting collaboration between
the revolutions destined to
leave an imprint on this cen
tury which cannot fail to be
fulfilled.
This is what the Italian
people wanted to demonstrate
when we received the German
chancellor.
"The words spoken at the ban
quet on May 7 don't represent a
diplomatic and political declara-
ton. They're something solemn
and final in history. But the
axis to which we shall remain
faithful has not prevented US
from following a policy Of agree
ment with those who sincerely
desire an agreement"
II Duce then went on to extol
Italy as a nation of high ideals.
For too many people," he
said, Italy is a country wrongly
depicted by a mediocre litera-
ture. It is high time people
knew of the Italy of arms and
labor. It is high time that .
people which for 20 years have
furnished formidable proofs Of a
eliminating determination to
conquer an empire should be
known.
STRENGTH KEEPS PEACE
"Our aims and policies are
clear. We want peace, but peace
with all, and / can tell you that
National Socialist Germany de-
sires peace for her land no less
ardently.
But peace to be secure must
be armed. That is why I wished
to gather our whole fleet at
Genoa and show you our real
strength at sea-"
This was a reference to the huge
armada which escorted II Duce
