Farley will speak in favor of President Roosevelt's recent su preme court reform proposal over a nation-wide hook-up from Memorial hall Tuesday after noon promptly at 3 o'clock. The plan for supreme court revision as the subject for Far ley's address came as the result of a personal request from Pre sident Roosevelt, and the Post office department has secured both networks of the National Broadcasting company and' the Columbia Broadcasting system to radio the speech over the na tion. : This will be both the first time that Farley has" mentioned the plan for supreme court revision and that such a coast-to-coast broadcast has been made from Chapel Hill.
