Hama g I one-thir- Famous Egyptian Labyrinth Contained 3,000 Rooms There are several labyrinths spoken of in ancient history. The one sometimes Included among the seven wonders of the world-ind- eed the only one whose existence is well authenticated is the labyrinth of Egypt This was situated at Arsi-nonear Lake Moeris, and was visited and described by Herodotus. It consisted of 8,000 chambers, half of them below ground, the subterrane e, a Waahlnslon, National Prese BuNdlas D. C. FAMOUS WASHINGTON an apartments being used. It Is supposed, for burial places. The chambers were connected with vaulted passages and were built of polished stone. Authors do not agree as to the name of the king under whom this remarkable work was constructed, and it is probable that it was not done in a single reign. This labyrinth was extant in the time of Pliny, 78 A. D., and ruins at tho modern village of Hnwara, in fay-urhave been identified with those of this labyrinth. n, Washington. The Supreme court of the United States has a new member, and to that Court Now extent, President Roosevelt has sucLiberal ceeded in reorganizing the highest court in the land. With the nomination by the President of Sen. Hugo L. Black. Alabama Democrat, and confirmation of that nomination by the senate, we find a Supreme court that stands for liberal interpretations of the Constitution by a vote of six to three on most questions. While it is important, of course, to know that Senator Black, the new justice, is nearly 100 per cent New Dealer, it ia much more important to the country as a whole to think of Mr. Black hereafter as being fully aware of the reasons why he was selected to the lifetime Job at $20,000 per year. It ia likewise important to remember the reasons why Mr. Black waa selected when one examines the balance of power in the Supreme court It seems to me that Mr. Black will enter upon his duties next October under one of the gravest handicaps that ever was set upon the shoulders of a Supreme court Justice. Because of this handicap, and because of the reasons lying back of his appointment I greatly fear that Senator Black can never be a great member of a great tribunal. In the first instance, his record in the senate, covering a period of ten years, has demonstrated to most everyone that he has a keen mind, but the fact remains, and I think it cannot be disputed, the new justice lacks the poise which always has been an attribute of outstanding judges. I hope he has the qualities that will enable him to grow and become a good justice from the legal standpoint; I hope this for the sake of the country as a whole and for the sake at the judicial structure of our government But after observing him as an independent writer over the last ten yeara I think I would be unfair to those who read these lines if I did not characterize Mr. Blacks as a decidedly mediocre appointment Again, the fact that nearly all Washington observers and a very great number of officials do not expect much legal wisdom from the new justice is traceable more to the conditions under which Mr. Black received the honor than to Mr. Black himself. Let us examine the reasons that lie back of Mr. Roosevelt's selection of Mr. Black. In this ease, as in the case of many, lesser appointments, the motives, the politics, the underlying objectives have not been stressed anywhere. In order to understand the situation, it is necessary to review several years of history on one line and it ia likewise necessary to examine various incidents marking Mr Black's career in the senate. Out of this maze of detail, certain significant and more or less definite conclusions appear. Along the one side of the examination we find Senator Black consistently supporting President Roosevelt's New Deal programs whenever and whenever he found them We note as well intolerance on his part for those persons and those arguments running counter to New Deal policies. Thirdly, we cannot overlook various senate investigations conducted by Senator Black for we know that in most of these he was carrying out ordera from the White House. That is. Senator Black was engaged . in expeditions of smear, of muckraking, and in needles exposure by way of senate investigations, in order that if there were flashbacks someone other than the President would be in the white light at criticism. Casting aside many of the assaults on Mr Black's personal record. and turning to the other phase of the situation that culminated in his selection for the court, it must be plain to anyone knowing all the facts that President Roosevelt had a definite purpose in selecting the Alabaman. This phase also requires a bit of review. When the President suddenly demanded that congress reorganize the Supreme court Court Split and make provi-Partsion tor the ap- pointment ot six hii own choosing, he new juatices of created an enormous split in the Democratic party. He alienateo many sections of the South and at the same time provided many southern Democrats with ammunition which they could use to justify their positions in oppoa-inMr. Roosevelt on many other phases of legislation. I do not mean to aay that all of the southern Democrats turned gainst the President because that is untrue. There were a half dozen senators from possibly the South and an equal proportion of representatives who are sticking by the President and will continue to support him. That fact, however, does old-lin- e not alleviate the condition I mentioned, namely, the wide-opesplit in the party. Senator Black was among those n who stayed with the President through thick and thin. He never was an exceedingly popular man among his colleagues. Add to this the Capacity of using harsh language in the extreme and one finds that he was not the most popular choice among the senators for the job to which he has been elevated. From various quarters, therefore, I have heard observations to the effect that Mr. Roosevelt appointed Senator Black with full knowledge of the facts 1 have related. He could and did slap at some members of his own party for foiling to go along with him on the court packing plan and some other New Deal legislation like the wage and hours program. He showed certain groups and cliques in the senate and house that he is boss. Then, in selecting a man from the deep South undoubtedly the President figured it would be influential in pulling back to him some of the support which he certainly has lost among local politicians in the southern states. Views of this test of political strategy differ greatly, but whether he gains or whether he loses on that score, there certainly is ground for belief that the reasons were as I have given them. There is also another reason for the appointment of Mr. Black. Of course, everyone realized that Mr. Roosevelt would name a man of New Deal leaning. Moreoever, everyone recognized that it would be strictly a personal appointment as far as the President was concerned. So the stage was set for appointment of a man of more or less radical tendencies but no one expected the choice that was made. Now, the senate long has operated almost as a high class group. Every senator considers his colleagues with great deference and respect. This is senatorial courtesy Does it not seem quite reasonable then, to consider that Mr. Roosevelt went into the senate to pick a new justice with the full realization that the nomination would be debated in gentlemanly fashion; Hist senatorial courtesy would tone down the barbs and the darts and the personal attacks that would probably obtain if the name of a private citizen were submitted? I cannot know the Presidents mind, obviously, yet I have heard these conclusions stated so many timei that they cannot be itregarded. New Dealers whoy" cons..vV the appointment clever from the standpoint of senate debate, and those opposed to the New Deal called it a smart trick.
