Indeed, this work has grown and accumulated over the years that the Clerk's office and the storage basement underneath (which were thought to be ample 20 years ago) are about filled to capacity. Now compare this to the nine cases on the docket?and five tried in 1815 with the 425 cases on dock et this July term. Of this great number, probably two-thirds will j be tried or nolprossed. others will be continued for one reason or an other, many capiases will be is- ? sued?-and so it goes.

The speaker has been giving a series of lectures at the Lake, and slashed at isolationists, as he said, "put men together and the world will be together." "No nation in the world can re main on a firm foundation until every nation in the world is on a solid foundation," he said as he pointed to the problems which have been created in the atomic age.
