But the legislation he

either to conclude that he
had been deceived by his own
people or was incapable Of

DAVID LAWRENCE

Criticism from laymen and
lawyers concerning recent
decisions of the Supreme
Court of the United States
has lately been attracting
much attention. but how do
some of the judges through
out the country feel about
the highest court?
There are not many oppor-
tunities for judges to discuss
these matters publicly. But
something that occurred the
other day at the conference
of the chief justices of the
highest courts of each of the
48 States throws a light on
this question. A substantial
number of the State chief
justices favored a resolution
condemning in the severest
terms some of the recent de-
cisions of the Supreme Court
of the United States.
Here is the full text of the
resolution offered by Chief
Justice Norman F. AFTER
burn of the Supreme Court
of Indiana:
BE it resolved. that it is
our opinion that the United
States Supreme Court has
tranSgressed sound legal
principles, and in particular,
usurped fact finding func-
lions in weighing the EVIL
dence in the recent cases of
Konigsberg v. State Bar of
California and Schware V.

the State of New Mexico.
Moreover, the Unite d
States Supreme Court has
encroached upon the jurisdic-
ton of the State courts in
holding, among other things.

Votes in Senate and House Are Called
Sef-Infiicted Detects for Presidency

The presidency suffered
two massive. self-infiicted
defeats this week.
II Is a wholly different
story from one of defeats
suffered or victories won by
a President.
A President wins and loses
He may we'll profit in the end
by what seems at the time TO
be a defeat. and vice versa.
That is not what happened
in the current legislative con-
flictS over civil rights and
Federal aid for school con-
struction.
President Eisenhower did
not fight and lose on these is
sues. He did not win and he
did not stand aside.
What he did do was TO pre-
sent the picture Of a man
not clear in his own mind
about what the legislation
proposed by his own admins
tration did and uncertain as
10 what he really wanted
Congress to do about it.
All the profit in the situa-
ton passed TO the enemies
OF the principles which the
legislation was designed to
fortify and defend.
No Republican in the
House can say he followed
the President on the now de-
funct school bill. no matter
which way he voted.
No Republican Senator who
followed Attorney General
Brownell's reasoning on civil
rights can claim that he was
doing what Eisenh o W e T
wanted. But no Republican
Senator who voted 10 kill
Title 3 Of the civil rights bill
drawn and defended by
Brownell--can assert that he
was doing what the Presi-

Jurists Look at Supreme Court

the chief justices were very
much concerned with what
the Supreme Court of the

Court of the United States

Many Americans of the
present day do not realize
that criticism of the Supreme
Court has been frequently
expressed in past history and
that perhaps the most severe
caStigation the high court
ever got came from the pen
of Thomas Jefferson. In a
letter to a friend in 1920,
he wrote:
Having found, from ex-
perience, that impeachment
is an impracticable thing, a
mere scare-crow, they con-
slider themselves secure for
life; they skulk from respon-
sibility to public opinion :.
An opinion is huddled up in

Supplemental Aid

President Eisenhower asked
Congress late yesterday for Sc
762,967 supplemental appropri-
ations which the White House
said would not mean any in
crease in the budget because
the funds were covered in al
lowances for contingencies.
The largest item involved is
81, 889 900 for United States
participation in the Brussels
International Exposition next
year. This is in addition to
$ll.S million previously appro-
priated for this purpose.
Other requests include Sl.3
million for the Veterans Ad-
ministration and 100000 for
the Housing and Home Finance
Agency.

The great failure is insti-

Or worse: What really can
