Warren, who has served as Chief Justice since 1953 and w ho will soon step down from that post, told the audience that we are living "in the days when there is every difference between promise and performance." The Chief Justice said that we have neglected our pledge that all men are equal for two centuries, and because of this we have created great domestic problems. "Close the gap between promise and performance and these domestic problems will cease to exist," Warren said. "Without these basic principles his 17 vears as Chief Justice, spoke on the changing needs of society and the need for change in the administration of the law. "There are so many causes to follow 'if we are to pursue the American ideal." Warren said. "If every lawyer were to pick one cause and follow it diligently, what a wonderful civilization we would have." 77 Yeans o Editorial Freedo CHAPEL HILL, NORTH CAROLINA H c The time had come last night there can be no justice as we have idealized it." Warren told the audience that the law profession is a conservative one that dislikes change but that change must take place for the law to serve its function. "Our profession has developed isolationist tendencies which have kept us from moving ahead in this society," Warren said. "We have a long ways to go, a great many things to remedy, before . we can function properly. "We are living in an age of change greater than any period in our history. Our profession must adjust to serve our real purpose." Warren said law schools must educate their students not only in the substantive context of the law, but also in the proper administration of the law. "We must view our responsibilities as a profession and not just a segment of it he said. ...
