It is probable that the President hot fight against it is certain in the senate. So far the Republicans in congress haven't had much to say on the matter, for the Democratic opponents of the scheme are voci- ferous enough to suit the G. O. P. It is said there is a good chance that the senate judiciary committee, headed by Ashurst of Arizona, will report unfavorably on the measure in so far as the proposal for in- creasing the membership of the Su- preme court is concerned. The other parts of the President's plan, de- signed to expedite the work of fed- eral courts, do not meet with much opposition. Probably the scheme will be sep- arated into several bills; and indeed that already has been started, for Representative Summers of Texas, chairman of the house judiciary committee, introduced a bill provid- ing for voluntary retirement for Su- preme court justices with full pay at the age of seventy. This was passed quickly by a vote of 315 to 75.
