CHANGES FORESEEN [N NAMING JUDGES Showdown Is Expected on Respective Rights of Sen- ate and President. BY MARK SULLIVAN. Attorney General William D. Mitchell, with .the backing, it 1is taken for granted, of President Hoover, has thrown into the open the whole princi- and practice of appointing eral . Practically everybody in Wash- assumes the action to mean there is to be a “show-down” on the Tespective rights of the President and the Senate with respect to appointing Federal judges. It is another and ex- tremely important battle in_the unend- controversy between Senate and Executive, with the Executive now tak- ing the initiative. Mr. Mitchell's ac- tion in making a public statement and throwing the matter opsn before pub- lic opinion is unprecedented within the memory of Washington observers. The specific casé* on which the ad- ministration takes its stand arises in Minnesota. In that State a Federal judge is to be appointed. The one Re- pul n Senator from the-State, Schall. presented a name. Attorney General Mitchell regarded the man pr as not having the proper qualifications for a Federal judgeship. Senator Schall stood pat, refused to withdraw the name he put forward, and refused to consider any other suggestion. The deadlock thus caused has existed for several months. Reversion to Constitution Seen. Attorney General Mitchell's public Pissue, which has just come from the statement of the case is in the nature of things an appeal to public opinion for support in his course. If public opinion sustains him, & revolution may be effected in the process of naming Federal judges. The revolution will be in fact & révolution backward, a re- turn to the method contemplated by the Canstitution. 3 As Mr. Mitchell puts it “under the wer to nominate—that selection, rests withl the is what the Constitution provides. What has grown up in practice, how- ever, is almost the precise opposite. , as in this case, a Federal judge- is vacant in a given Stats, the Sen: rom that State btlonging t3 the in power, regard the opportunity as constituting part of their normal patronage. The Senatér picks a man and presents his name to the Attorney General and the President. The rela- of aj is re- lect another name. Senator Schall stands pat. Senate Attitude Awaited. ‘What remains to be seen is whether the Senate as a whole will stand by Benl&nschlll. ‘The rule in the past has for the Senate as a whole to defend the prerogative of each Senator. Furtively or openly the Senate says, in effect, to the “If you don’t appoint the one of us, we Wi not_participate in this attitade. The Toaternal stnse of “one for all, sll for one” is, however, very powerful in the General Mitchell, in the ys he has “been told President Hoover litichlly esota” if he would accept ~ Senator Schall’ Mr. adds tha has a ma’;? in which political ‘usefuln does not enter.” ‘The place where anger on the part of adt to the President on It tha sentful Senators take most effec- tive revenge. £ Battle Iy Important. When Mr. Hoover's administration came into power, it was assumed that B, P wot e al selection of Federal judges. In earlier cases that arose, in vania and Kansas, an imp: made that the administration, holding out against Senators for several I men rather a disappointed Senator against the President really counts is within Senate itself. It is by vo o re- what has gone on in inferred that now President his Attorney General are detel to make no more compromises with Senators and that every Federal judge appointed shall be up to the standard of character and competence r.l;? set. If they succeed, the new method and the constitutional method would be that the President and the Attorney General should survey the bar of the State, should select the t available man, and should then send che name to the Senate for confirmation. Nor- mally a President would consult a Sen- ator as a man presumably familiar with the bar of his State. The assumption by Senators, however, of the practically complete power of naming Federal juéges has been universdlly regarded as unfortunate. The t>ndency is for Sen- ators to try to use the appointments to pay po'itical debts. The battle now initiated by the Attorney General with the backing of the President is extreme- ly important.
