High | barometric pressure prevailed over the Aleutians, western Alaska, and over the northern portion of Alaska. This general pressure distribution has been attended by precipitation from Skagway southward to Van- couver Island and by generally fair weather over the remainder of the field of observation.

Grant was the last President who| differed with the Supreme Court on a major issue and carried the day. Soldier though he was, G the arts of peace to beat down op- position in the high tribunal to the famous post-war legal tender acts. The trick appeared to be simple enough. A couple of friendly nom- inees for vacancies and an agreeable congress paved the way. In February, 1870, before the va- cancies were filled, the Snupreme Court decided, in effect, that green- backs were not legal tender. On the very Gay of the decision, President Grant nominated Joseph P. Bradley of New Jersey and Wil- liam Strong of Pennsylvania, rail- |road attorneys, and both nomina- tions immediately were contirmed was in the ring for the Republiean Presidential nomination of 1912 1agnlnst President Taft, Colonel Roosevelt advocated before an 1Ohio constitutional convention the recall of judicial opinions. | “I very earnestly ask you clearly to provide in this constitution,” he said, “means which will . . . per- mit the people themselves by:pop- ular vote . . . finally and without appeal to settle what the proper construction of any consmu?mnal point is. “Each (judge) must follow his by the senate. Grant Wins His Point The question of the constitution- ality: of the greenbacks again was raised, and within 15 months green- backs were held constitutional by the added votes of the new appoin- tees in their favor. “Granfc packed the court,” oppon- ents yelled, and the phrase “pack- a 5 ing the court” still crops up.

It was because’ of that speech that he lost the previously certain {support of such Republican. stal- warts as the late Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, dominating figure in Massachusetts’ Republican politics. ‘The Massachusetts delegation was equally divided at the convention between Taft and Roosevelt, Had it gone to Roosevelt as a |unit, as Lodge had intended until he read the Ohio speech, Colonel i Roosevelt’s nomination would have i been assured. { In the judgment of party leaders {at the time, Colonel Roosevelt was certain of election if nominated on the Republican ticket. His bolt tc the Progressive party instred Taft's defegt and Woodrow Wilson’s elec- | tion. But for his Ohio declaration for recall of judicial opinions, the subsequent course of American his- |tory might have been changed. The New Deal fight for a “lib- eral” interpretation of the consti- tution being waged by a Democratic President Roosevelt might have been fought under the “square TOMORROW we swin: deal” banner raised by his distant to war 9 kinsman, the Republican President ¥ Roosevelt. % et ¢ « <4 e
