Topping the list OF errors In the

Florida Supreme Court Question Tops List
OF Constitutional Amendments For Nov. 4th

from one place TO another for tenn
porary service.
The chief justice would be
elected by the other justices from
the courts membership for any
term the court agreed upon. The
present Constitution provides two
year term and by tradition the
presiding position is rotated among
the judges according to seniority
The amendment would give the
Supreme Court specific power to
"make rules governing the admin
istration of all courts in the state,
and the practice and procedure in
all such courts" It also says the
Supreme Court "shall have juris-
diction over the admission to the
practice of law and the discipline
Of persons admitted"
Sponsors say the court always
has had inherent power to govern
court practice and procedure, al
though legislative act was passed
in 1943 authorizing it to change the
rules of practice.
Although admissions to the prac-
tice of law now are governed by
a statutory board of law examiners
the board operates under rules
promulgated by the Supreme
Court.
Several years ago, the court
ruled it had authority to require
all lawyers to be members of the
bar and set up machinery within
the bar to discipline unethical at.
torneys-then it put such a system
called "integration," into effect.
The three new justices would be
appointed for two-year terms end
ing in January, 1855. In the 1854
general election, one of the new
members would run for two-year
term; one for four years and one
for six. There is nothing to provide
which should seek the short and
which the long term. They would
have to decide that among them
selves.

Southern states where Ike'S
chances are brightest.
In North Carolina the only "cool-
ness" toward the national ticket is
reported from Sen. Smith and Rep.
Graham Barden. But they are urg-
ing voters to vote Democratic
ticket from constable to presi-
dent.
Elsewhere, the picture varies
somewhat.
Four of Texas most prominent
members of Congress, Sens. Tom
Connally and Lyndon Johnson, and
Reps. Sam Rayburn and Wright
Patman, head the Stevenson cam
paign in that state.
No member of the Texas con-
greSsional delegation is known to
be supporting Eisenhower and
most of the 21 House members are
actively or passively backing Stew
enSon.
In addition to Gov. Shivers, Atty.
General Price Daniel, unopposed
candidate to succeed Connally
State Democratic Chairman Wal
lace Savage; and virtually the en-
tire State Central Committee are
active in support of Eisenhower.

eaSe-could hand down a decision
for the whole 10-man court.
Capital cases and constitutional
questions would have to be heard
by the chief justice and at least
six other members of the court,
but it would take only a majority
of those sitting to hand down a
decision. In other words, it would
be possible to uphold death SEN
tence by a vote of no more than
four of the 10 justices.
The present seven-man court
now hears minor cases in divisions,
made up of three justices and the
chief justice, but every ruling must
have majority of the whole court.
If the four men on division dis
agree, the case goes to the whole
court.
Supporters of the amendment
say it is necessary to divide up
the courts work in order to clear
the docket Of a heavy volume of
litigation. They also say the meth
cd is no different than that used
by the U. S. Court of Appeals.
Critics say there is difference
between the federal circuit court,
whose rulings are subject to re-
view by the U. S. Supreme Court,
and the State Supreme Court which
itself has the final say on state
questions. Some of them also say
the court doesn't need 10 justices
to take care of the load.
The amendment would make the
chief justice of the Supreme Court
chief administrative officer of all
the courts in the state.
He would be charged with the
duty of seeing that litigation was
handled speedily throughout Flori-
da in the various inferior courts,
and he would have authority to
transfer judges from one place to
another for temporary service as
he saw fit.
At present, the governor has the
only authority to assign a judge

Stevenson Is Gaining Friends Among Dixie
Democrats Says Associated Press Survey

ATLANTA Rl-Dixie's top Dem
ocrats have closed ranks inereas-
ingly behind Gov. Adlai Stevenson
in the closing days Of the bitter
1852 presidential campaign.
Despite some conspicuous defec-
tions which could cost Stevenson
some of the Solid South electoral
votes, an Associated Press survey
today showed more than 80 per
cent of this sections governors,
U. S. senators and congressman on
record for Stevenson with a
majority of these active in some
way, in behalf of the party's
Standardbearer.
Dissenting Democrats and I'm
precedently active and hopeful Re-
publicanS, however, point to bolts
by few prominent figures and
insist that much of the support for
the Democratic nominee actually
is "for the record" to preserve
claim to the party regularity which
almost always has been vital to
political advancement in the South.
These supporters of Gen. Dwight
D. Eisenhower, the Republican
nominee, argue that many top
bracket Democratic officials are
giving only token aid to Stevenson
or are actually Sitting on their
hands" although planning to vote
Democratic.
This, the Ike supporters reason,
viii be accepted by many normally
Democratic voters and lesser of
ficeholders as meaning that vote
for Ike won't actually be viewed
this time as a vote for the Re-
publicans.

voters next week will ratify or

Most of the debate has ragged

Of public confidence in Gov. Fuller
Warren.
He would name the three new
justices just a month before he
leaves office. Since he already has

The Florida Bar has, by vote Of
lawyers, prepared a list Of 40 at
torneys from which Warren has
said he intends to make his selee-
tionS.
But there's a whole lot more to
the amendment than expansion of
the Supreme Court.
One of the most controversial
features among lawyers are pro-
visions which would let a minority
of the court hand down decisions.
The amendment would allow the
court to break itself up into three
divisions of not less than three men
each. Any division could hear any

it involved the death sentence or
