G OF ST, | v ovmow oo TOADVSE UPLD Parker Defeat Held Proof Constitution to Be Taken Seriously. BY FREDERIC WILLIAM WILE. | Determination of the United States| Benate to give “advice,” as well as “consent,” on Supreme Court nomina: tions is the outstanding lesson of Judge Parker's rejection. Taking their stand on the constitutional duty imposed on them, both Republican and Democratic 8enators who opposed confirmation de- clare they have now effectually estab- lished that principle. President Hoover or any of his successors, they insist, will flout it in future at the same peril which hes just inflicted upon the pres- ent administration the severest reverse it has yet suffered. It is apparently the theory of the men who brought it about that the ‘White House should have made advance | soundings in the Senate as to Parker's | acceptability, instead of waiting to bring pressure to bear on his behalf when the | nomination was in danger. This is the | view of Senators who rang as “regulars” and who ordinarily support the adminis- | tration. It was the votes of a handful | of. these Republicans—not the opposi- { son of Capt.

Gamble, secretary of the | A A A A man who not long ago was in the fore- front of the pro-Hoover “Young Guard” contingent in the Senate, to explain what animated him to desert the ad- ministration on the Parker issue, This is what he said: Believe Hoover Served. *No vote of mine since I entered the Senate caused me greater heart-burn- ings than the one I cast against Judge Parker’s nomination. Yet I sincerely believe that every Republican who voted as I did has done not only President Hoover, but our party, the most dis- finct service that could be rendered them. It was not possible, as I viewed it, for us to ignore the attitude of the American Federation of Labor. Or- ized labor represents a tremendous element of the Nation. I can conceive of nothing more undesirable than to undermine the confidence of the goun- try's vast working class commusiity in the integrity of the Supreme Court. We are on the threshold of an awakened liberalism in the United States. That does not mean bolshevism. . American organized labor is our surest bulwark against bolshevism. The Republican arty cannot afford, ostrich-like, to be ! lind to the wave of liberal thought that is sweeping the country. “The Republican party, least of any party has the right to shut its eyes to the outraged sensibilities of 18,000,000 colored citizens. Our party was prac- tically born with the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments. For the colored people, the Constitution is those amendments. I cannot bring myself to believe, as a Republican, that I was entitled to support for the Supreme Court & man who, rightly or wrongly, is held incapable by the colored com- munity of safeguarding its full con- stitutional rights. I know that influen- tial non-colored elements, which are interested in inter-racial peace, made eleventh-hour efforts to persuade them- selves that they could conscientiously 'xgpflwe Judge Parker’s mnomination. !! decided it was impossible. There was finally the question of Parker’s ability and Mllfllbfl“y for Su- e Court service, othing in his prem record made me think lhlt he meas- ured up to the full, high stature which the people mdmomlly associate wlth tribunal highest {instance. eoncluded he hld done nothing, in ')le course of a judicial career which em-.| braced 400 decisions, which raised him above the commonplace. I could not reconcile his nomination with my theory that we must mot elevate ediocrities to the Supreme Court.” ‘Watson Blames “Socialists.” Mmmmnmm adherents in the Sen- ate, goes without saying, do not ldenmy themselves with the foregoing diagnosis of the Parker nomination’s shortcomings. Senators like Watson of Indiana, the Republlun Senate leader, who worked tooth and nail for confir- mation, went down to defeat contending to the last that Parker was a victim of the “socialistic” drive against the Supreme Court. The drive first showed its head when Chief Justice Hughes' name was before the Senate, the ad- ministrationists point out, but collapsed. When Parker was nominated the “socialists” were shrewd enough to make common cause with the Negro association, and between those two groups, Senate Hooverites assert, it Dl‘uv!d possible to accomplish in Park- er's case what failed of achlevement in the case of Hughes. It was for this reason, above all others, the President'’s Senate friends say, that Mr. Hoover stubbornly resisted overtures to withdraw Parker’s name in the face of possible defeat. The ad- ministration’s answer to surrender sug- tions was the issuance cf orders to ht for confirmation to the bitter end. orders were carried out with a flerceness such as Capitol Hill has not known for years. If a single doubtful Senator could have been won over to the President’s side, yesterday'’s vote would have been a 40-t0o-40 tie, making it possible for Vice President Curtis to utter the decisive aye in Parker’s favor. No effort is made by White House spokesmen in the Senate to conceal the 'avity of the rebuke the President has dealt him. Not since the Senate rejected President Cleveland's nomina- tion of Jud:e Peckham of New York, nearly years a Buvreme Court nominltmn‘g:m Tejec (Copyright, 1930.)
