sSOCIATE JUSTICE WILLIS
VAN DEVANTFIR notifle I
President Roosevelt that he would
retire from the Supreme court
bench immediately
after the summer
adjournment of the
c ui i on June 1. itpd
there were rumors
in Washington that
his example would
be followed by Chief
Justice Hughes and
associate Justices
Sutherland and
Brandeis when the
contest over the
President's court
enlargement pro-
gram is settled.
Speculation as to Justice Van De-
vanter's successor began at once
and it was generally agreed that
Joseph Robinson, Democratic lead-
er of the senate, had the best chance
for the appointment. It was be-
lieved he had been promised the
place at the first opportunity some
time ago, and his many friends in
both parties were quick to ex-
tend there best wishes. Of course
there was talk of his ineligibility be-
cause of the recently enacted statute
permuting Supreme court justices to
retire on full pay for life. The Con-
stitution provides that “no senator
or representative shall, during the
time for which he was elected, be
appointed to any civil office under
the authority of the United States
which shall have been created or
the emoluments whereof shall have
1 -i -.creased during such time.”
But several authorities declared this
would not apply in the present case.
Some observers believed that Rob-
inson was so useful to the adminis-
tration in the senate that Mr. Roose-
velt would seek to be relieved of
his alleged promise to give him the
appointment.
Senator Lewis of Illinois predict-
ed that by mid-summer Justices
McReynolds, Sutherland, Cardozo
and Brar.deis would resign.
ganda. charged the cardinal "spoke
in a tone heretofore reserved for
; the lowest brand of agitators."
The official news agency of the
government alleged that "Mundelein
defended the crime* of Catholic
priests ai.d laymen” on trial in Ger-
, man courts and < ailed on Catholic
bishops in Germany to make a re-
! ply-
In Vatican City prominent church-
men said Cardinal Mundelein had
every right to speak his mind and
that the Vatican would not concern
itself with the speech, either to de-
fend or to repudiate it. The car-
dinal’s attack seemed to meet with
general approval of Catholics, Prot-
| estants and Jews in the United
States.
Under instructions from Berlin,
the counselor of the German em-
bassy in XVashington lodged with the
United States government an in-
formal protest against Cardinal
Mundelein’s speech.

QUIHI QUIZES.

Written Up.
D Y THE expected vote of 10 to 8
the senate judiciary committee
rejected the President’s Supreme
court bill. The line-up of commit-
tee members had been certain for
many days. Supporters of the meas-
ure then turned to compromise,
some of them backing the propos-
al of Senator Logan of Kentucky
permitting the appointment of
"temporary” justices at the rate of
one a year for every sitting mem-
ber over seventy-five. The opponents
of the bill, however, rejected this
and all other compromises, which
was the only consistent course they
could pursue. So the bill was report-
ed adversely to the senate, and
the battle will continue in that body.
It appeared that neither this set-
back nor the retirement of Justice
Van Devanter had changed the de-
termination of the President to in-
sist upon the passage of his bill as
originally submitted. Senator
Wheeler said Mr. Roosevelt should
now withdraw the measure. Sena-
tor Ashurst declared "everything
that has happened since the bill was
introduced has helped it” and pre-
dicted it certainly would be passed.
Senator Borah asserted: “The Van
Devanter retirement will have no
effect on the court bill. The lines
have already been drawn and will
not cnange.”
Mrs. Warfield
\y ALLIS WARFIELD will be-
| * come the duchess of Windsor
when she is married to Edward,
the duke, on June 3 at the Chateau
ae Cande, near
Monts, France. But
whether she will be
“her royal high-
ness” is at this writ-
ing still a disputed
question. Edward,
through his Ameri-
can friend Herman
L. Rogers, has vir-
tually told the world
that she will, the
New Yorker saying
to correspondents:
“I think she auto-
matically would be called that.” It
was taken for granted that Mr.
Rogers would not have said that
without the approval of the duke.
This widens the breach between
Edward on one side and the British
cabinet and Anglican churchmen on
the other. The duke’s friends as-
sert that Prime Minister Baldwin
and his associates have broken a
pre-abdication promise concerning
the marriage, and they and the
duke are angry because, at the be-
hest of the government, no member
of the royal family will be present
at the ceremony. The announce-
ment of the marriage, issued from
the Chateau de Cande, said there
would be only a few guests in addi-
tion to the witnesses and the serv-
ants.
Though the entire controversy
seems rather foolish, it appears to
mean a lot to the British and it is
interesting reading.

p ARDINAL MUNDELEIN of Chi-
^ cago, addressing five hundred
Cardinal
Mundelein
priests of the archdiocese, hotly at
tacked the German government, its
highest leaders and
its propagan da
methods which h e
said were directed
against the Roman
Catholic church and
designed to "take
the children away
from us.” He called
Reichsfuehrer Hitler
"an Austrian paper-
hanger and a poor
one at that,” and
charged the r e i c h
with breaking the
concordat with the Holy See.
He opened the speech by recall-
ing that after the World war the
German government complained of
"atrocity propaganda” aimed at
German troops by the allied na-
tions. He continued:
"Now, the present German
government is making use of this
same kind of propaganda against
the Catholic church.
"Through its crooked minister
of propaganda it is giving out stor-
ies of wholesale immorality in reli-
gious institutions, in comparison to
which the wartime propaganda is
almost like bedtime stories for chil-
dren.
“It will be not only unwise, but
cowardly as well, if we take the
thing lying down and do not fight
back every time the subject is
brought up outside.”

^ EXV YORK asked and obtained
i>l from congress an appropria-
tion of $5,000,000 for its world's fair,
with the provision that the money
was to be spent by the fair com-
mission. But President Roosevelt
vetoed the measure; and in his mes-
sage he rebuked congress for “an
unconstitutional invasion of the
province of the executive” in setting
up a commission to direct the ex-
penditure.
When the message was read in
the house the Republicans roared
with laughter and the Democrats,
or some of them, raged. Sam Mc-
Reynolds of Tennessee and John J.
O'Connor of New York especially
voiced their resentment, and open
threats were made to cut down the
relief appropriation demanded by
Mr. Roosevelt.
The house killed a $1,250,000 ap-
propriation for a naval air base on
the Columbia river in Oregon; and
the appropriation of $5,000,000 for
the construction of a national high-
way through the Blue Ridge moun-
tains in Virginia and North Caro-
lina was attacked. But the latter
was saved when Chairman Dough-
ton of the ways and means commit-
tee said: “I have it on the highest
authority that the President favors
it.” Incidentally, the highway will
run near a large farm Mr. Dough-
ton owns in North Carolina.

fairly represented, it is natural that
tha boys were happy and in good

R. Gus was unfortunately prevent-
ed from attending the grand ball in
Miller’s ball at New Fountain which
came off last night. Those who at-
tended declare it an unmitigated
success. The night was somewhat
coo! for the season, but it was much
appreciated by the dancers. The
music was splendid and the suppei
ditto. Mr. Henry Poebler as floor
manager deserves praise for the ef-
