when the senate could act be-
fore nominees began service.
He acted after it became ap-
parent that President Roose-
velt might not appoint a suc-
cessor to Justice Van Devanter,
retired, until congress had ad-
journed.
Thus the senate would have no
chance to pass on the appointment
until next January. The appointee
could sit on the bench from the be-
ginning of the fall session until that
time.
Cummings Rules on It
The question of when the appoint-
ment would be made came to the fore
Monday when the White House an-
nounced Attorney General Cummings
had given an informal opinion that
the president could fill the vacant seat
at any time, regardless of whether
congress was in session.
Chairman Ashurst (D., Artz.) of the
judiciary committee, and Democratic
Leader Barkley, of Kentucky, both
insisted the Vandenberg resolution
should go to committee. Vandenberg,
however, left the resolution on the
vice-president's desk.
Meanwhile, the senate Judiciary
committee recommended Monday a

If he goes after this book and tries to

may be a newspaper man seme day.

friend. About the only thing he
harps on that I fail to see is “death,
life’s grandest adventure.” That
seems to me to be a lot of bunk. If
death is such a great experience, why
does almost everybody put it off as
long as possible? Why, a man may
be a helpless invalid, suffering from
a frightful malignant malady, yet we
will not even help such a miserable
human over the hill to the glorious
beyond. It is all right to be un-
afraid and take it on the lam like a
man, but this old life is a big bowl
