The U.S. Supreme Court is in recess now, preparing for the new term that will start in October, and the cool marble halls offer little but long lines of respectful tourists. It is a rood time to review last month's proposal for a NaCourt of Appeals. tional , The proposal came from a special study commission headed by Sen. Roman L. Ilriiska of Nebraska. The commission concluded that the present case load on the Supreme Court already is too large to be handled desirably. As the country grows, the new acts of Congress create new litigation, the load is certain to get still more unmanagable. Some relief could be afforded by modest measures: Congress could modify certalu rules of appellate procedure, or Congress could create specialized "little Sup-i reme Courts" in such fields as tax law and patent law. The Itruska commission believes the growing problem is too serious for such temporizing. The commission therefore an entirely recommended , ' 1 -- - ), ,,- - - - '', r - , , - . , . i 4 -, 41, i t i t It 41 ;.?1 - 4- tk v, . ,4 . r, ..., , ' - .. , , $1. .., , 4bi 1 . t- , ' t , I t - 4 s , - , i i3 , : , ;$' st - "How can they keep going?" I asked. My friend said, "The Romans are the greatest survivors of all time. and they're very well set up for strikes. The telephone company even has a number you can call, and they'll tell you who is on strike so you can plan your day around it." "That's a good idea," I said. "It is except every once in a while the people who run the service go out on strike." The waiter finally brought our coffee, after a it half-hou- t t i , ; "Is he on strike?" I asked my friend.

"You're very lucky to get in," the taxi driver told me. "The airport employees are always going out on strike. . They re very unhappy. The other day they went out on strike to protest the bad service everyone at the airport was getting. All the passengers had to find and carry their own baggage." When I arrived at my hotel, I was handed a slip of paper. "The employees will go out on strike from 10 o'clock We hope until 4 and from 7 o'clock in the evening until you will understand," A friend picked me up in a taxi. "I would pick you up in my car, but it was stolen. Rome has the highest number of auto thefts of any city in the world," he said thousand were stolen last year, and proudly. "Forty-tw- o only 7.000 were recovered." "Where are we going?" I asked him. "To the Vatican," he said. , . "Are you taking me sightseeing?" "No, I have to mail a letter. The Italian Post Office has had so many strikes that the only safe way to get a letter out of the country is by way of the Vatican post office. They bet a special mobile lounge in St. Peter's Square just for mail..' It's been so successful they should be able to pay all the costs for Holy Year." , "Rome sounds like a lot of fun." It is, e he said. e The beauty of the city is that things have gotten so bad we don't know when people are on etriek or not, because you don't notice any difference in the services." "Why are the Italians always- on strike?" I asked him. -Oh, everyone has a different reason. The post office employees went out because nine of their fellow workers on night duty were suspended for bringing their cots with them and sleeping through their shift. "I was at the Turin Airport last week and tried to check in with a couple of hundred people including families.' nuns, children and businessmen. The clerk looked out at us and said, 'There are too many of you and there is too much confusion. Baste And he and the six other clerks walked off, leaving us stranded for four hours." We posted our letter and then went to a cafe, "The Italian IRS has been on strike for five months. But it was their own fault. They made a big mistake when they let the IRS clerks read the returns of the chauffeurs who worked in their own ministry. The clerks discovered they were making 200,000 lire while the chauffeurs made 800.000. This got the clerks so mad they went out on about 1.200 cases were filed in the Supreme Court. Now the number annually exceeds 4,000. Yet the court cannot hear and decide more than some 150 cases a year. Scores of cases that once would have justified full review have to be declined.

We might never know 111:dt the Brothers Kennedy their Administration actually did in terms of assassination plans.
