The Great Game Politics
Confidence in Judiciary Undermined
BY Roosevelt Appointments, Says Kent

Some Of it, members, encouraged
by the President, developed political
aspirations. One was indorsed by
him for the Vice Presidential nomi-
nation at the recent convention. An
other frequently is consulted about
and makes recommendation fol
political appointments.
Not only the dignity Of the court
has been diminished but its great
traditions Of aloofness from politics
and absence Of personal ambition
have disappeared. It Is split in en-
bittered factions and there are nc
yardsticks left by which its course
can be measured.
When this Is added to the extraor.
dinary way in which the lower
Federal Courts have been politi-
Called, the effect has been to un-
dermine popular confidence in the
Federal judiciary. which Is q pretty
dreadful thing. With Mr.. Roosevelt
asking for q fourth term these facts
ought to be presenteds To use the
war to divert public attention from
them and from other domestic de-
linquencies Is clearly the aim.

Football history is replctc with

heart of a great Minnesota team
on a bleak mid-Novcmbcr day in

kicked by WisCOnSin's legendary
