None can complain of this creed. It is as old as the deeds of God's fighting captains, Samson, Saul, Joshua and Jeab.. Even the gentle David put into his sling the hardest rocks he could find, and he threw them “as hard as he knew how.” And later, on direct command from Above, David “gmote the Philistines from Geba until thom come to Gazer.” Rightly or wrongly, President Roosevelt decided that cer- tain men were “undesirable citizens,” and he hit; he hit as hard as he knew how. With part.of the record of Judge Peter S. Grosscup before him, the president decided that here was an “undesirable judge,” and he hit; he hit as soft as a president of the United States could. Grosscup had stood, mendicant, to the railroads, whose passes he asked and accepted and whose lawsuits he tried. He was the central figure in the unholy Chicago traction scandal. He showed no inclination to retire from the bench nor to re- vise his code af judicial ethics. He not only saw no harm in asking railroads for passes for himself, his family and friends, But he asked through the legal departments of the railroads instead of the passenger departments, thus not only accepting favors, but seeking obligation to the men who appeared as counsel in his court as well as to their clients. aa ke : . , r ” wouldn't The traction receiverships, through Grosseup’s court, are & Greek: “Yours ie eoctntnly om cunifieg exteteace out here in te Fast alipped away.
