sentative" wing of the present
Supreme Court.
So far as the record indicates.
there Is even less reason to sup
pose that Justice Harlan could
be called strictly "legalistic" as
a Judge or in any way aloof as
q man.
Unlike many newcomers to the
Supreme Court bench, Justice
Harlan probably will find it un-
necessary to disqualify himself
in many cases. One in which he
may step aside is the Justice De-
partment's appeal in its anti
trust case against the dupont
interests in the cellophane ~
dustry. The high court has
agreed to review that case. JUS
tice Harlan, while in private
practice, represented the COM
pany.
The Provoo case conceivably
could reach the Sunpreme Court
in the next term but perhaps
not on the precise points in
volved in the Court of Appeals
decision by Judges Swami,
Cedina and Harlan. That de-
cision did not rest entirely on
the procedural dispute over the
trial Of Provoo in New York.
The appeals court also ex-
pressed dissatisfaction or doubt
about admissibility of some evil
dence at the trial. Meanwhile,
another Federal Judge recently
dismissed the case against Pro-
VOC on the constitutional ground
that he was denied a reasonably
prompt trial.
Civil rights cases, as well as
appeals involving Communists or
suspected subversives, are GER
tain to give Justice Harlan plenty
of work and opportunity to put
forth his legal findings and phi
losophy.
Meanwhile, other judges and
lawyers and some laymen are
reading with timely attention his
opinion in the Communist lead
ers' case and his following COM
ment on a phrase coined by the
late Justice Oliver Wendell
Holmes:
Clear and present danger
does not mean that the trial
court must find that the alleged
conspirators have agreed upon
a precise set of circumstances
under which they will attempt to
strike down the Government,
and the existence or likely exis-
tence of those particular circum-
stances.
Where a conspiracy to destroy
the Government by force or
violence in concerned, we think
the clear and present danger
concept connotes no more than
that the setting in which the de-
fendentS have consipred is such
as to lead reasonably to the con-
clusion that their teachings may
result in an attempt to over
throw"

Treasury to find mistakes. We
have our own responsibility to
find out just what this law is
doing to our tax code and our
revenues"
Would Provide Forum
Although Mr.. Mills didn't men
ton it, such an investigation
would provide a ready forum for
continued Democratic attacks on
the 950-page 1854 act. which re-
wrote almost every tax law on
the books.

Indications were the investiga-

mittee, possibly headed by Mr..

months to complete.

HorIon's Legal Views Studied
As He Joins Supreme Court
New York Justice
Emburks Tomorrow
On q New Career
By Robert K. Welsh

Justice John M. Harlan en-
banks tomorrow on a Supreme
Court career.
What clues to his judicial fu-
ture may be found in his past
30 years Of private practice and
public service?
Justice Harlan's principal writ
ten opinion as a United States
Court of Appeals judge in New
York during the last IL months
affirmed the conspiracy convic-
ton of a group of Communist
Party leaders charged with teach
ing the advocating violent over
throw of the Government. The
opinion contained notable COM
ments on the clear and present
danger" doctrine.
He also joined in the opinion
that reversed the treason con-
viction Of John David Provoo.
He and his colleagues held that
Provoo. accused of aiding Japan
in World War II, should have
been tried In Maryland and that
the Justice Department nd de-
liberately shifted the case into
Federal Court in New York.
Sc Years Old In May
But those legal issues from
the immediate past attract less
attention in the general popu-
lar imagination than does the
traditional query: Whats in a
name?"
Justice Harlan, who will be
Sc in May, is the grandson of
Justice John M. Harlan who
served on the court from 1877 to
1911.
Any comparison, for prospec-
tive judicial purposes. would be
futile as we'll as hazardous.
Nevertheless, with arguments re-
scheduled for the week of April
ii on the how and when of ra-
cial de-segregation in public
schools. there is bound to be
mention of the first Justice
Harlan's 1896 dissent from the
arate-but-equal" theory.
The incoming Justice Har-
lan's ideas on constitutional as
well as on highly technical is
sues are yet to develop into any
comprehensive pattern.
Some will come fairly soon be-
cause of pending test cases that
raise profound constitutional
questions.
PerSoas who know of his pro-
fessional work. his personality
and his method of handling Legal
problems say it would be q mis-
take to emphasize that as an at
torney he dealt mainly with cor
poration and antitrust law.
They cite his prosecuting ex-
perience as a former Assistant
United States Attorney in New
York. They note the crime in
vestigating which he did as a
special assistant to the New
York State Attorney General
and, more recently. as counsel
for a State crime commission.
Appeals Court Term Short
His service on the United
States Court Of Appeals, al
though comparatively short. was
active and varied. His friends
remark that he not only "looks
like a judge" but has very clear
cut nd consistent ideas s to
how judge should ct nd spek
outside well S inside tn cour-
room.
While those reported ideas of
judicial dignity and reserve
may seem conservative, there is
no evidence that Justice Harlan
will automatically side with
opinion of the so-called ."con-

BUXTON BUSINESS
| MEN OUT BOOSTING
CAPE'S SERVICES
Many Businesses Operate In Cape
Hatteras Area; Numerous
Courts and Other Services

The business people of Buxton,
Cape Hatteras are as wide-awake
group as will be found. They not
only make heavy investments in
their community in order to take
advantage of the fast growing
tourist travel the National Park
promotion has stimulated for
them, but they give literally of
time and means to boosting the
County Tourist Bureau, and work
ing for the jamboree which will
usher in the season on April 10Th.
Pioneering in the tourist court
business at Buxton, is George Full
Ter, who with Edgar Hooper,
cousin of Mrs. Fuller, now operate
two courts, beside their general
store in the community. Mr.. Full
Ter owns the Cape Hatteras Cot
tage Court which he has enlarged
this season, and Mr.. Hooper owns
the Lighthouse View court nearby.
Both courts had a highly success
ful season last year.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bill Dillon own
the Outer Banks Court which was
new last year, and operated by
Mr.. and Mrs. E. P. White, parents
of Mrs. Dillon. This court has
been enlarged this, season. All
three of these courts are adjacent
on the ocean side and across the
road from the Cape Point Restau-
rant, operated by Boyd and Har-
old Gray, now in it's third success
full year. 1t is one of the finest
restaurants on the coast.
Newcomers to Cape Hatteras
are Mr.. and Mrs. J. w. Gandee,
Winston-Salem visitors who de-
cided to stay, after visiting the
Cape. Mr.. Gandee is operating the
new and modern Lighthouse ESQ
Servicenter. Mrs. Gandee will
operate the Cafe in the Pines,
which is opposite Mrs. Junius
Jennette's new brick motor court.
With it's back drop of pines, Mrs.
Jennette has built a court which
is being made unusually attrac-
tive and excellently furnished.

some 20 years represented the
Home Security Life Insurance
Company, and regularly visits all
the villages of the Outer Banks,
including Ocracoke. He was for
many years on the County Board
of Education, and now is mem
Der of the Board of Commission
ers. Mrs. White is postmaster for
Buxton.
Most of the larger plumbing
jobs at Buxton have been done by
an experienced Manteo plumber,
Carson Greet. At present he is en-
gagged in installing the plumbing
