H. Wheeler has written several books on psychology and is familiar with animal as well as human behavior, yesterday his knowledge did not seem great enough to conquer the will of his mishabewheel dog. A passivity noticed the dog go around the yard and around the air when out to Doctor Wheeler calling for the dog to come home. But the dog began running from yard to yard paying no attention to his master. The definitely angered doctor gave chase pointing his finger at the dog and yelling "Hero Scare!" He maneuvered the dog into position to get the hypnotic eye upon him, but the dog liked the game of chase and vacated the yards to scamper up the street. At this point the master gave up and watched the dog run—the point noticed Wheeler's interest and tried to blush so violently that he hurred away from the scene.

Squadron Insigne Designed by Crafton Appears in Life PAGE FOUR Overhauling the Judiciary President Roosevelt's proposal for a reorganized judicial system is a startling one indeed. It is not a matter for a snap judgment, nor for an emotional outburst. It must be considered calmly and without prejudice, a fact which our newspapers have ignored. Editorial Comment our newspapers be more broad and deeper than the issue is much broader and deeper than a "fight" between President Roosevelt and the supreme court. It is not merely an attempt to remove an obstacle to New Deal legislation by "packing" the court. the court. It is an attempt to remedy certain evils inherent in the present judicial system, evils which have existed for many decades but which have never shown themselves so clearly until the crisis created by the depression. There are some facts which no one can deny. Let us look at them in the light of the President's proposal: UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS $ ^{a}$ 1. Federal courts are taxed beyond their powers with the number of cases they must handle. More judges are needed. The President has proposed more judges. it has proposed more love. 2. Two hundred and thirty-seven Federal judges hold life tenure permanent judgements. It is a proven fact that age brings with it some degree of senility. When this comes differs with the individual. With some it starts at 60. It is also true that a man who is falling, even slightly in his mental powers, seldom realizes this fact. It would be too great a blow to his ego. Chief Justice Hughes himself has said, "It is extraordinary how reluctant aged judges are to retire and to give up their accustomed work." Of all professions, that of the judicial most requires an alert mind. The President suggests that when a judge reaches the age of 70 and has served for 10 years, that he can be permitted to retire. This is not compulsory. In any case a new judge will be appointed to aid him if he remains, or to replace him should he decide to retire. This brings us to a third point. A government is established to fill social needs. It must keep pace with them as far as possible. Congressmen and presidents change in personnel and viewpoint, but the courts remain the same. And the courts have power to deny fulfillment of social needs. They must understand these needs. Often they cannot. The President proposes to install new life by the above mentioned method. 3. Sociologists recognize that people tend to live in the generation in which they were brought to maturity. It is natural that all of the social mores of the time should train them to think in certain patterns. But social needs change. What is radicalism when one is 20, is law when one is 60. But when one is 60, a new radicalism has come, and the elderly person looks upon it with suspicion. 4. An act passed by Congress, and signed by the President may be prevented from becoming a law because one party brings an injunction against another party to prevent him The Kansan Platform 1. A well-rounded diversity athletic program. 2. A student working conditions. a. Reopening of Dyche museum. b. Construction of a medical science building. c. The stocks of the library. c. Addition to the stacks of the library. 5. Restoration of faculty and employee salaries. 3. Establishfam. 4. An adequate building program, including: a. Museum of Duchess museum. from obeying. The government has no chance to defend its law, and the case may drag on for weeks, meanwhile the state of uncertainty causing the government to lose money and time. causing the government the President proposes that the government be permitted a hearing in such cases, even though it is not directly concerned. He also proposes that court action on legislation involving constitutionality take precedence over all other on the court calendar. Few have disputed these two points. A fundamental truth seems to emerge from these points. A judge is human. He is a man like all men, better equipped perhaps, in education and training, but subject to the same limitations that bind other men. One must not consider the case merely in the light of President Roosevelt's desire to see his legislation legalized, but one must look down the centuries to come when other Presidents will have to face similar problems. It is unfortunate that this proposed reform had to come at a time when people are emotionally stirred up about the Supreme Court, but the real issue must not be obscured.
