TO FIX TERM
Ruling By Supreme Bench
Reverses Opinion Given
By Superior Court.

The right of the Governor to re-
move members of the Industrial
Accident Board with or without
cause" was sustained by a 2-to-1
opinion of the State Supreme Court
Tuesday, reversing a 2-to-1 decision
Of the New Castle County Superior
Court earlier this year.
Under the courts decision, the
three appointees of Gov. Richard
c. McAIuIlen constitute the board
instead of the three Republican
members who the Governor had
sought to replace.
The majority opinion, written by
Chancellor Josiah o. Wolcott, was
concurred in by Judge W. W. Har-
rington. Judge Charles S. Richards
dissented but filed no opinion. In
the lower court, the majority opin-
ion was given by Chief Justice Daniel
J. Layton and Judge Frank L. Speak
man, with Judge Richard S. Rodney
dissenting.
Action on Stay Deferred
The Supreme Court deferred ac-
ton on an application Of James r.
Morford, of counsel for the Repub-
lican board, for a SO-day stay of exc
cution.
The law creating the accident
board provided that the Governor
could remove members with or with
out cause, a provision which the in
eumbent Republican members, thru
their counsel, argued was contrary
to the constitution.
Eve are aware that in the judg-
ment Of many persons Il Is highly
unwise for the Legislature to create
offices with an Indebtedness OF
tenure" the Supreme Court held.
But it is the province Of the Legis-
lature and not Of the courts to pass
upon matters of policy. The legis-
Iative hand is free except as the
restraints; and courts
are bound by a most solemn sense of
responsibility to sustain the legisla-
tive will in the appropriate field Of
its exercise, even though in the opin-

Legislature had acted in an unwise
