BYthe Associated Press. ¥ NEW YORK, February 4.—The mass'of trivial litigation brought be- fore the Supreme Court of the United States was: deplored tonight by Asso- cigte Justiee' John H. Clarke'in-an ad- dress at a dinner of the New York University Law School alumni. He urged lawyers, in arder to con- serve the time of the court, to consider as a citizen rather thah an advocate whether the case was of sufficient Jm- portance to justify his calling it to the attention of a body primarily or- sanized to'deal with matters of great- est public concern. He also begged | that the facts in a case be well and tersely stated and that briefs actually be made brief. Certal Lawyers Scored.

He added that cas me from every part of the earth. especially from the District of Colum 5 He attributed this not to a desire for local prestige, nor to.a desire to postpone the day of ultimate settle- ment, but to “the widespread desire to participate in the evolu- itutiona] jurisprudence.” aracterized ' as_laudable, which b but in many cases futile. He added that, While it was not for him to culogize the Supreme: Court— which recently had been called “the living voice of the Constitution"—the scope of the court “has become so fateful that the effects of many of its decisions upon the welfare of our country are as great as would be the ts of decisive battles in a great Sources of Trivial Cases. The fourteenth amendment to the Constitution, proclaiming that - citi- zenship rights shall not be abridged, has been the source of most trivial litigation, he said, adding that ex- panding federal activities were oper- ating to make a close second of the fifth amendment, providing for prose- cution, trial and punishment, and set- ting forth that private property must not be taken for public use without compensation. “I am not near enough to \enture‘ & prediction as to what the eighteenth amendment may ultimately do to us.” said the justice, touching on the liquor question. In conclusion, he asserted that all were living in a world so new that past experience could be of little serv- ice, except as a warning. Pointing ouf the pressing problems facing the age. he declared that to lawvers in midcareer and to the younger mem- bers of the pgofession “this new world is bringing opportunities for pioneer and constructive thinking and action and service equal to, if not greater than, that of which the lawyer-fram- ers of the Constitution made so much for us and for all men.” POWELL TO LEAVE.POST IN FLEET CORPORATION President to Withdraw March 4 After Six Months of Volun- tary Service. Joseph W. Powell, president of the Emergency Fleet Corporation, an- mounced yesterday that he would terminate his connection .with the corporation next March 4. He ex- plained that private affairs would prevent him from continuing longer in his present post: - Mr. Powell has been connected with the Shipping Board and Fleet Cor- poration since last September 4, hav- ing complied with the request of President Harding and Chairman take’ reorganization of the corpora- tion. Mr. Powell explained to Chairman Lasker, when the request that he joiii the corporation was first made, that he could not give the time nec- essary to the government work, but finally agreed to enter the govern- ment service for .a period of three months without salary. When that time had elapsed, however, the re- organization of the corporation was h status that he felt he must n longer to carry it through, n March 4 will have completed onths of voluntary service. th Mr. Powell and Mr. Lasker the Shipping Board announce- £ said, “that by that time the of reorganization will be so in hand that Mr. Powell will be i'to carry out his in {8 irman Lasker, with Vice Pres- idet Smull of the Fleet Corporation acting as its presiding officer.

BY WILLIAM E., NASH. By. Cable:to The Star and Chicago Daily News. Copright, PARIS, February 4——Germfln police hounds are no longer German. The name is a misnomer. In reality they should be known as French sheep dogs. So claims M. Jouhant, sr., pro- prietor of the largest dog kennels in France, situated among the narrow picturesque lanes of Bourg la Reine, a suburb of Paris, half an hour's ride from the Orleans gate in a wheezy little street car. “Most of the French sheep dogs come from Alsace,” explained Jou- hant. “When the Germans seized that province in 1871 the dogs became spoils of war and had their name changed from Alsatian to German. The breeding of these dogs spread. across the Rhine to the region of Mannheim and the training and repu- tation of the dogs were developed in a thoroughly German manner. Now, however, France has regained the lost province and therewith won the right to name in the original way, the fa- mous shepherd dogs of Alsace.
