it looks for some substitute
to aim at the glands of the

minority status. The prob
lem did not arise in the same
terms in 1856; Mr.. Eisen-
hover was the incumbent

1t is widely agreed that

dent do not lend themselves
to hating. They may have
handicaps Of geography, re-

nobody really hates Adlai
Stevenson or Senators Ken

short for teaching anyone to
hate them and what they
appear to stand for, even If
any large number of Repub-
licans wanted to try.
But nobody has to persuade
the great mass Of Democrats
that the Vice President is not
their cup of tea: they are
already converted, and by
him. They are joined by
many independents; there
are few signs to indicate even
slight inroadS by the new
Nixon in this quarter.
1t is true that President
Eisenhower has indicated his

Adlai Stevenson and former
President Truman have cor
rectly, we think, condemned
the present status Of prima-
ries. A few States hold them.
They prove little. They are
expensive, time consuming,
physically exhausting, and
not always helpful.
The late Wendell Willkie
was smashed politically in a
Wisconsin primary by Gov.
Tom Dewey. Adlai Stevenson
was almost driven from the
race in 1856 by Senator
Kefauver'S early primary VIC
tories. A fellow named Harry
Truman ran fourth place in a
Wisconsin primary-and yet
was elected to the White
House. Mr.. Truman describes
primary results as being so

Douglas, like the cases with
which they deal, are more
than statistics. The cleo

and tangled. They require at
times the economists under

the executives experience,
the political scientists under

This view will be disputed
by those who feel that the
founding fathers set up a
Supreme Court to decide not
what the law or the ConSti-
tuition ought to be but what
it really is, based on written
acts of Congress and written
provisions in the Constitution.
This is why Judge Learned
Hand, retired, Americas most

The Democratic Party is
showing the stress and strain
of two divisive issues-civil
rights and religion-but one
strongly unifying influence
remains constant. 1t is in
tense personal dislike of the
still probable Republican
presidential nominee, Vice
President Nixon.
Republicans this year lack
a comparable target who Is
detested alike by the right
wing and the Eisenhower
moderates. This is a reversal
of the situation in the recent
past.
Beginning about 1887 and
through 1852, Republicans.
whatever their theological
differences, could generally
agree that Presidents Frank
lin Roosevelt and later Harry
Truman were anathema to
all right-thinking Americans.
1t was a valuable asset, as a
personal villain has always

eral election.
Republicans might and

Justices Talk at Cornell Considered
Supplementing Desegregotion Decision

But it is in relation to the
desegregation decision that
Justice Douglas new COM
ments will be widely debated.
He gave to the Cornell law
students this concept Of the
present-day court:
There is the myth that has
received great impetus since
Brown v. Board of Education,
BAT U. S. 483. It is that the
court made an exception in
those school segregation cases
and picked them out as the
occasion to rely on 'sociologi-
cal data. not on law or prec-
edents. Yet those who work
in constitutional law know
that business facts, economic
data, institutional practices
and social materials often are
relevant to enlightened deci-
sions on constitutional issues.
The Brandeis brief, filed in
1908 in Muller v. Oregon, 208
U. S. 412, and containing vast
citations to economic and So
cial data bearing on the hours
Of work by women, is the
classical example"
But Justice Douglas missed
the main point Of the criti-
ciSm that has been made
about sociological" data. No
body has objected to the in
PRODUCTION of data of any
kind in a formal brief filed
prior to the argument before
the court. What is objected
to is the lack of an oppor-
tunity to the other side to
present a rebuttal or even to
cross examine the experts or
authorities" before they are
cited for the first time in a
decision of the Supreme
Court of the United States.
The 1854 deSeprepation
cases. moreover, involved
precedents that had allowed
the States from 1868 to 1854
to establish schools with
separate but equal" facilities.
Indeed, contrary to a general
impression, the famous case

cation Of Topeka, Kans., in
