There have been exceptions, on certain .state occasions where the “attendance of the Vice President was virtually compulsory. But on more .than 360 days out of every year, the rule holds goéd. It was at Mr. Gar- ner's suggestion that he and the President decided to forego the customary exchange of dinners be- tween the President and Vice President. Thus was ' preserved the sanctity of the bedtime hour in the Garner househgld two more nights in the year. Except as a symbol, the Garner bedtime hour hardly possesses national significance.

To the average layman, the subject appears a little complicated in. view of the differences of opinion, but Arthur Krock, political expert for the New York Times, writing from the firing line in the national capital, gives an enlighten- ing outline of the major arguments against and the Administration’s replies. Stressing four points, Mr Krock says: As the adminisiration enviseges the chief criticisms and the best answers in the forth- coming debate, they are these: 1. The plan to add a justice to the Supreme Court for every member over 70 who declines to retire is a shady device to “pack” the-court with judges who will ratify everything this President wants ratified.
