THE UANBLRY REPORTER
Senator Reynolds On
Proposed Court
1 Changes
'
, If any evidence was needed
that the Sevcnthy-fifth Congress
with its top-heavy Democratic
majorities, would not be a "rub
' ber-stamp" Congress, it has been
the President's plan for changing
the judiciary. This plan has be
come the dominant legislative is
sue and threatens to delay, if not
, furnished in the controversy over
ingulf, less important proposals
, which in more normal times would
seem of such magnitude as to
' demand early action. But pro
posed changes in the basic scheme
for our government have always,
and should have, first attention. !
| It is interesting to note that
i the heart of the controversy over
t the courts is not one of purpose,
but rather the best means of at
; taining the objectives sought.
(There are a comparative few who
do not concede that some changes
. in the basic plan of our govern
' ment to meet modern conditions
are necessary situations that
have arisen since the Constitution
I was drafted. But how? That Is
I the most momentous question in
the national capital today.
! The President's plan calls, of
i course, for legisatlive authority
i
i to name s'x new members of the
Supreme Court, increasing the
membership to fifteen, should jus
, tices over seventy years of age
fail to resign. That was the pro
gram submitted to Congress. Otli-
I?r proposals were promptly ad
i
! vano?d and the situation that has
resulted bring 9up three ques
tions.
Does the President's plan offer
i the soundest approach to a prob
'
lem that vitally affects every citi
zen? Would it be more dcrsirable
'to submit the question—a slow
1 process—to the people for final
decision? Would it be feasable
to enact a legislative requirement
that all rulings by the Supreme
Court hold laws unconstitutional
by a two-thirds majority? Such
a majority is now required in the
Sena'.; on more momentous ques
tions. The President contend;
his plan is the only sure means
fop prompt and effective action, as
the Congress considers the pro
posal from every angle.
But as I have said, even the
most severe critics of the Presi
dent's plan realize the need for
some changes in our basic scheme
of government. Every sta'ement
t
on the subject since our founding
1 fathers is being scanned and
quoted. What John Marshall
jsa'd, what John Jay said, what
Justice Taney said, what Justice

all members of Congress to pre
serve the progress we l' -"e ma V
in government, and at the same
time correct the conditions that
prevent further progress at a time
when we truly stand at the cross
roads in national and internation
al fears. How can we best da
this from the standpoint of the
present and the future? It may
be a compromise. The Constitu
tion was a compromise document
and the legislative course of our
nation has bee" consistently
marked by compromise.

John Jay said, some things are
self-evident. Neither of these il
lustrious statesmen of the past
ever rode in an automobile. Neith
er of these great citizens ever
flew from coast to coast in a day.
Neither of the outstanding law
yers ever heard a radio. And
none of the food for these great
justices ever came from a chain
store. Obviously, they could not
correctly plan for these new con
ditions. The President is sincere
in his desire to meet these con
ditions and those who ardently
support him believe that he will
be the first to concede the merits
of any plan for changes in the
judiciary that >s more equitable,
more effective, and more logical
than the plan he has advanced.

Slot Machines
Down and Out
i
I The legislature just adjourned
passed a law outlawing slot ma
chines of all description.
These devices which learned th?
kids to gamble and engaged the
frantic nickles of many older
heads, are now taboo, nil, ail-i",
down and out.
This mea's that the Flannigan
law, passed sometime a:;o, effec
tive with the en l oi' the preset
fiscal year license period, will be
come tffecil.e. This has been
declared the only slot machine
law ever passed i;i North Caro
lina which could be regarded as
I f per cent, effective.
The law, according to its pro
ponents. outlaws all machines
whf.'h conceivably could be re
garded as gambling devices on
which gambling could well be car
ried out.
