Daily Alaska Empire ROBERT W. BENDER - - Editor and Manager Already reports are current that this most recent by the EMPIRE decision, coupled with the verdict upholding the mini- cets. Juneat 'y um wage law, may have effect on the status of the President’s proposal to reorganize the court. Some are of the reported theory that the attack on the Court has broadened that tribunal’s view, and news dispatches today hint of possible voluntary retire- ments from the bench in the near future by some of those who have reached the 75-year mark. If such a course is followed it probably will add weight to the! Chief Executive’s court reorganization bill. Tt would appear to be an admission of need of just what the President has demanded. | The Labor Act decision may be big stuff today, e but oldtimers will tell you that 20 years ago today in ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER E THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION |Juneau was a big moment, too.
