tices have been selected for the ex- press purpose Of curbing incoming opposition parties. For instance, John Marshall was appointed Chief Justice by an outgoing Federalist, John Adams, in order to curb the Incoming Democrats under Thom- as Jefferson. Unquestionably, also, the hangover COP. majority on the Supreme Court in the early Roosevelt days went out of its way 10 curb New Deal legislation.
 Republican presidents. for the most part, have followed the same lule-though there have been ex- captions. Up until 1861, only one Democrat was appointed to the Su- preme Court by an opposition pres ident. He was Samuel Nelson, nom- mated by President Tyler, nominal Whig, in 1845, just before Polk, a Democrat, was to enter the White House. Tyler had nominated several others to the court, all of them re- jected by a Democratic majority in the Senate; so, finally, he yield ed and named a Democrat.
 Since 1861. Republican presidents have crossed the party line six times, usually because Of special circumstances; but never have

Democratic presidents. In 1863, Abraham Lincoln, wanting to win over northern Democrats and cre- ate new northern party, appoint ed Stephen J. Field of California.
 Thirty years later, Benjamin Harrison took the unusual step of appointing Howell Jackson of Ten nessee, this was due to the fact that Harrison had been defeated by Grover Cleveland for reelection and a Republican justice could not possibly have been confirmed.
 In 1909 and 1910 President Taft appointed two Democrats, one of them Horace Lurton, an intimate friend who had served with him on the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in Ohio. Tafts other appointment was Joseph R. Lamar, Conservative, a Georgia Democrat
 A similar gesture toward the Democrats was made by President Harding, who, during his brief per- iod in the White House, appointed four Supreme Court Justices. One of them was a Democrat, Pierce Butler of Minnesota, an extreme conservative reared under the in fluence of the U. s. Steel Corpora tion. He voted with the Republicans

COL. pERoN FIGHTS FRANCE

European diplomats arrived from Buenos Aires reveal story of in- creasing trouble between Argentina and France Whats more, the Qual D'Orsay planes it all on the U. $. State Department.
 Several months ago, the De Gaulle government asked the Far rell-Peron regime to return three merchant vessels seized by Ar gentina when that country broke off diplomatic relations with Vichy France in 1944.
 One of the ships is the 2O,Oo0- ton Katiola, built just before the war. The others are the Campana and the Formose, older and smaller crairJ but important to France in the present depleted state of her merchant marine.
 The Argentine government eX- pressed willingness to relinquish the vessels if this could be made pub lie symbol of friendship between the two nations. So French Am bassador Vladimir D'Ormesson, a Rightist who had been seeking fla vor with Peron, promptly agreed. However. the Foreign Ministry back in Paris would have none of it.
 Officially, the French felt they could not afford to risk offending the United States by such a ges- ture to Peron at time when our State Department was being very tough verbally toward him. Unlike the British, they wanted to coop crate with the U.S.A. in Latin Am erica.
 But now. Peron is President-elect If Aroentins. and the United States has accepted the fact. So France is .n a tight spot, with the Argentine strong man going cut of his way to put her there.
 On April 23, following a series Of anti-Ftench articles in the pro- Peron press of Buenos Aires, the communications facilities of the Agence France Presse in that cap ital were suspended for ten days.
 The excuse for this hostile move was that an Agence France dis patch published in Montevideo, Uruguay, on April IS stated that Peron was seriously i'll and would soon undergo a major operation.
 The official Argentine Com munique said the Agency had been penalized fer disseminating news which was absolutely false and which, even if true, would unduly alarm the public
 That left the actual state of Per- on's health somewhat open to ques- tion. But it also had the French government frankly worried over a situation for which it blames the U. s. State Department. stcoPYRIcHr, BELL SYNDICATE. INC. l946)

TOUGH ON JUNEAU

Too light vote cast for Curtis Shattuck in Juneau yesterdays primary election probably will that Juneau will lose a Senate seat in the Legislature While Shattuck was just barely high man for Juneau in the Democratic senatorial race, concentrated at tack by the Ketchikan Chronicle on Shattuck, mainly built around getting Southeast Alaska branch of the University of Alaska in Ketchikan, (praccally sub urbs of Seatte), resulted in beating for Shattuck in that city.
 Heretofore Juneau and Ketchikan have had about equal representation in the Senate and if Juneauites don't wake up they'll find not only university branch but most other benefits which the legislature can bestow going to Ketchkan

HEART AND HOME

HEART AND HOME
 Impatience will mark the con- duct of many housewives through the next few months, particularly those home bound women who en- joy nothing so much as gardening, doing anything outdoors.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 There are indications that indus try is in for a shock. Thus far all emphasis is on production for the eagerly waiting millions with little or no stress on selling. h. dustrial top executives seem to feel that their products will be snatched up the moment the GUS tcmers know they are available. They will learn that consumers like the feeling of having money in the bank and it will take salesmen to change this kind of thinking.
 NATIONAL ISSUES Needs of further flood control measures will be pointed up in at least one section of the country this summer.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 The first calm in many months is indicated on the international front. Many important problems remain to be settled and there is still much envy and suspicion among the nations; but the crisis of the hard and dangerous post war period is past.
 Persons whose birthdate this is are promised by the stars: A year of exciting activity combined with series of discoveries of new in terests and talents
 Children born today will be among the great leaders of their day. They will be aggressive, in telligent and successful.

BATTLE FOR A HOME

The Anchorage Post of the Veterans of Foreign Wars is carrying on campaign to enlist the help of the OPA in making it possible for returned veteran to re-ener his home in Anchorage and according to letter we have received from the Post isn't having much luck
 letter from Commander Cecil A. Roley hints that the the OPA is not cooperating that the house is now occupied by two employees of the OPA. Probably there is to this story than meets the eye but it looks if the returning veteran shouldn't have to worry too much longer about his home if Congress continues its recently nstigated elimination of the OPA

SUPREME COURT AP-
 POINTMENT

Up on Capitol Hill. politicos have been taking it for granted that President Harry Truman will ap- point a Republican to the vacancy on the Supreme Court. They base this on t--e fact that the late Har- Ian F. stone was Republican. Ii Truman does so, however, he win go against the precedent of every other Democratic president in the entire history of the U.SA-except himself.
 Truman's own political advisers ttheir I.Q. isn't too highl didn't seem to realize that Harry broke a precedent of IA years standing when he appointed Senator Harold Burton. q Republican, to the Su- pr,me Court. rom 1891 to l945 no other Democratic president had ever appointed a Republican be- fore.
 however, the boys on Capitol Hill so successfully buffaloed Harry that when he originally selected Repub- lican Bob Patterson, then Under Secretary of War, for the Supreme Court, Republican leaders protest ed that Bob was not pure enough Republican. Having served in the War Department under Roosevelt, they considered his Republicanism slightly tainted. And they raised so much cain that Harry, apparently not familiar with historical prece- dents, let them get away with it..
 The fact is that presidents of both parties always have let the swing of election returns control judicial appointments and have made no attempt to balance the court by crossing party lines. Most presidents have gone out of their way to select justices who not only were of the same party, but would be in tune with their own philo- sophy. Thus Theodore Roosevelt was careful to ascertain that Oli- yer Wendell Holmes was sympa- thetic with my policies" before he made his greatest appointment.

 The sad thing about it all is that several Juneau residents whom shall talk about later, were in fluential in cutting Shattuck and Juneau out of the Senate race.
