Chase, chief justice of the United States following the © civil war, as the occasion for cautious, indirect defense of the United States supreme court, Chief Justice Taft said in part: { “It is convincing evidence of the sound sense of the American people in the long run and their love for civil liberty and its constitutional guaranties, that, in the irit of the hostility frequently engendered, the court las lived with its power unabated until now.” Mr. Taft, by inference at least, drew a parallel between Chase’s predicament and his own. He told how “the Fadical republicans” had attacked Chase’s bench and de- ‘clared that now “the people are glad that the guaranties of personal liberty were maintained against the partisan zeal of the then majority.” What Mr. Taft has done is attempt to create the im- pression in the popular mind that those who seek to de- fine more clearly the powers of the supreme court are attacking that important branch of our government, That, _ of course, is not the case. The serious-minded public is just as much interested in preserving the guaranties of civil liberty as is William Howard Taft. The institution of the supreme court is not being at- tacked. No sane-minded person has proposed that the _ Judicial system be torn down. What the folky are ob- ' jeeting to now is the haphazard system, arising solely out of custom and habit and precedent, whereby one justice on the bench, if he happens to cast the deciding vote that _ makes the balance of power, can undo the work of two dacades of public effort to secure a desired law—as in the case of the minimum wage decision. So don’t be misled by Mr. Taft’s vague remarks about “civil liberty” and “constitutional guaranties.” What he his said is nothing at all—he has dodged the real issue, When a couple of lying golfers meet, the recording angel has to start weiting shorthand.
