COURT TO SIT
IN DIVISIONS
IF IT’S LEGAL
That supreme court may ait In
divisions, If It can do so constitu-
tionally and It is seen that such
procedure will speed up the work
of the court, was the statement of
Chief Justlco John l'\ Bhnrp Satur-
day, following bar association rec-
ommendation that such a atop ho
taken.
The rourt has discussed the plan
for several weeks, Justice Sharp
said, but that a constitutional pro-
vision that decisions must he made
by a majority of the court wus an
obstacle that had to be met.
"It would mean divisions of five
each—tho chief Justice sitting as
chairman of encli division, ’ said
Judge Sharp, "and it would mean
that unanimous opinions must be
reached on every case before either
division. This plan also would prac-
tically eliminate the chief Justice
from writing opinions, for Ills work
of -,~*ferrlng with lie two divisions
on every opinion, wwuld consume
most of Ills time. Hut If the pus
slblo speeding up of the other eight
Justices' work would Increase the
volume of the entire court, tills
would be no hindrance."
How lie 1‘lans Speeding.
That the court wll begin In 1918
under the most favorable conditions
for speedy work In cleaning up the
docket, was Judge Sharp's state-
ment. Every case up for rehearing,
filed between Jan. 1, 191*. and Dec.

Burleson's Views.
Now here is how Burleson looks
at the question of wages for postal
employe'*: All employes who get
le..- than $100 a month, if they
have served faithfully, studied hard,
;,riq pleased their superiors, have a
i banco to receive an "automatic
wage increase that will bring them
in a little better than $8 a month
on the average. Those that are
getting $100 a month, he feels, have
no right to put forward their selfish
Interests at a time like this when
the government needs every dol-
lar it can scrape up.
An "If” to Answer.
But tho clerks and carriers say,
| “If Burleson Is so greatly disturb-
|c*d about the nation’s financial con-
• dition, why doesn't he turn in his
| $12,000 salary? He is a great land-
owner, probably tho wealthiest
(member of the cabinet, and ho
wouldn’t fed tho difference. Why
! shouldn't Burleson’s concern for
j the government begin ut home?"
The plain fact is that the gov-
ernment is getting exactly the
same class of work In tho postal
service and a great deal more of
it. owing to tho speeding-up meth-
ods which have recently been In-
troduced, for Just about half the
