political trade is the trend
toward liberal economic de-
ciSions in the Eisenhower
courts. Politicians suspect
that the obvious depth and
sincerity Of Chief Justice
Warren'S convictions as
shown during his many years
as Governor of California
have surprised some people
at the White House.
Liberals who never could
find q Democrat able to cope
with the Warren appeal in
California have to plead
guilty to cyniciSm. They
complained bitterly through
the years that the press
made Warren" and that
his supposed liberal views
were only vote-catcherS.
The Eisenhower course
which gives the ABA priority
over politicians in the nam
ing of Federal judges has
not been entirely smooth.
There have been stresses and
strains. accounting for long
delays in Senate approval of
judges.
The steady attrition Of the
Presidents influence with
CongresS-now acknowledged
by devoted Eisenhower sup
porterS. including Publisher
Henry Luce - suggests that
the Republicans and the
ABA may yet do battle
over the judicial plums.

Little noticed in the vague
phrases of the "civil rights"
bill as passed by the House Of
Representatives is a provision
from which the Federal Gov
eminent would derive the
right to punish any labor
union whose members. by
concerted action, close down
a newspaper or broadcasting
station or plant that prints
publications.
The First Amendment,
which hitherto has been in
terpreted to mean only that
no State can take any action
which abridges the freedom
of the press. could be in
voked so that the activities
Of private individuals in clos
ing down a publishing or
broadcasting company would
become a matter for the
United States to challenge as
a party at interest.
Hitherto there has been no
way to proceed against per-
sons who might engage in a
conspiracy to shut down q
newspaper, but under the
much-talked-of Section s.
which can still be enacted If
the House insists on it in
conference.-the Federal Gov
eminent would be authorized
to enter such disputes and
act in behalf Of private per-
sons whose rights were denied.
Aside from the right Of
all citizens to vote. the pend
ing civil rights" bill is de-
signed to defend the ipdi-
vidual whose constitutional
rights may be infringed by
any State action or by any
one else. Up to now. it has
been the rule that the Federal
Government could not inter-
vene to protect freedom of
the press unless the injury
was inflicted by State action.

He is a league observer who

He said the Yugoslav gov
