Louis D. Brandeis, retired Justice of the U. S. Supreme Court, who died last weekend, probably entered into his responsibilities in the highest tri- buna in the land under pressure than any other justice who has ever sat on the highest bench in the nation.
 A champion of trade unions and the rights of working and a severe critic of the financial interests which bled their fellow men, Brandeis appointment in 1916 by Woodrow Wilson produced a storm of protest and counterstorm of support from his many friends
 At one stage, seven former presidents of the American Bar Association wrote to the President that it was their painful duty" to express the opinion that Brandeis not a fit person to be a member of the supreme court of the United States" Among the signers was William Howard Taft, later chief justice
 Hearings on the Brandeis appointment lasted three months and when they had concluded and President Wilson was asked to state his reasons for making the appointment he said:
 "T11e report of your subcommittee has already made it plain to the country how unfounded the charges against MT Brandes I myself looked into them three years ago when desired to make him member of my cabinet and found they pro- oeeded for the most part from those who hated MT Brandes because he had refused to be serviceable to them in the promotion of their own selfish in- terests'
 Tt is my deliberate judgment that of all at the bar whom it has been my privilege to observe, test and know he is exceptionally quali- fled" Wilson concluded T not speak too highly of his impartial impersona orderly and constructive mind, his rare analytical powers, his deep human sympathy his profound acquaintance with historical roots of institutions, his knowledge of modern economic conditions and of the way they bear upon the masses of the people. This friend of justice and of men will ornament the high court of which we all justly proud"
 That Justice Brandes fulfilled everything Presi- dent Wilson said of him is part of the record.

Less Bargaining

Few in the Senate or elsewhere
agree unreservedly with the way
Mr.. Roosevelt has chosen to handle
the matter. There are those who
feel that, while his course was in
evitable. he let the British crowd
him into too-free a commitment,
that he did not use his bargaining
position to get more for this
country either as payment now or
later in the peace, that he acted
late, that the program is not even
now we'll formulated, etc, etc.
Those objections are rapidly
losing their strength in the Sem
ate in the face of larger considera-
tions.
This then is the big stride that
is being taken easier, swifter, more
unanimously with each passing
day of congressional consideration.
1t is the big commitment and
after it is made all subsequent
events. even war, must follow the
adopted pattern. As one old-time
senator tries to explain IT in the
cloakroom:
ct Is like drinking. You swear
up and down you are not going
to drink too much before you
take the first one, the second,
the third. After that, your prom
ise becomes unimportant.'

proposal by airing the probability
of leasing and lending cotton and
food under the bill. That is true,
but unimportant. Mr.. Roosevelt
has privately assured congressman
he thinks the bill covers food.
Every one agrees that. without it,
the British would curtail their

cannot be much cotton in the bill
and the food which the British
