In spite of other matters of in
terest which come and . go, the
Supreme Court issue holds its
own and will not be downed. It
is not surprising, therefore, that
the papers gave large front page
headings to the word that the
Senate Judiciary Committee, by
a vote of 10 to 8. had set the
mark of disapproval on the Ad
ministration plan for revising the
court, and those who ought to
know say that the committee ac
tion may be regarded as a defin
ite index to what the rank and
file in Congress will do when the
measure comes to a vote on the
floor.
The statement of Justice Van
Devanter tnat he will retire in
June, coupled with the rumor
that two other justices will retire
if the assault on the court ceases,
puts the entire conflict of opinion
in a condition wherein both sides
win. Or. the one hand, the anc
ient framework of the court re
mains unchanged. On the other
hand, if there are three vacancies
to be filled, a balance of power
can be created which may alter
1he viewpoint of the court mater
ially. for some years to come, at
least.
Retiring from public service is
not confined to Supreme Court
Justices or to the United States.
Mr. Baldwin. Prime Minister of
England, is about to relinquish
his place In what he calls his
last speech while in the office,
the Premier takes a backward
look over the years that have
passed since the Great War and
makes some observations which
appeal to others than Englishmen.
Mr. Baldwin is of the opinion
that the League of Nations, and
the Treaty of Versailles which
closed the war, did not to any
substantial degree accomplish
what was expected from them;
that although Europe cannot now
be said to be at war, neither can
it be said to be at peace; and that
for every soldier who perished at
the front and for every piece of
war munition that was destroyed,
there is another soldier to fill the
vacated place, and another dead
ly engine for the destruction of
human life ready for operation.
European dictators get a skinn
ing which is none the less com
plete though phrased in well
chosen words: “Freedom for the
common man. which was to have
been the fruit of victory, is once
more in jeopardy because it has
been taken away from common
men in other lands.” All of the
foregoing seems sound, but what
is Europe going to do about it?
Indeed, what can anyone do ab
out it?

the timing and financing of public
works projects, increasing vol

wounded, captured and deserted
in the past week of intense ac
t.vity at twenty thousand.
