The La Follette amendment would destroy the theory of equality beâ€" tween the three great branches of our governmentâ€"the representatives, exâ€" ecutive and judicial. Senator Borah‘s amendment would give a minority of two judges such tremendous monopoly of power that majority rule on the supreme court in rendering decigions will seem to any <ordinary mind to be infinitely more fair than sevenâ€"toâ€"two deéciâ€" sions. Senator La Follette goes further and proposed to amend the constituâ€" tion so that‘ if the supreme court or any inferior federal judges declares an act of congress unconstitutional, congress may, by reâ€"enacting the law, nullify the court action. Charles Warren, former assistant attorney general of the United Statâ€" es, in the Saturday Evening Post of October 13, shows that the actual fact in this particular matter is that 184 years of the existence of the United : States supreme court, there have been exactly nine of these fiveâ€" toâ€"four cases in which an act.of conâ€" gress was held unconstitutional. be constructerl from top to Senator Boru:n‘rn been particularâ€" ly savage in ing about fiveâ€"toâ€" four decisions and proposed a bill reâ€" quiring that seven out of nine‘judges concur in pronouncing any act of congress unconstitutional. - It has been a popular political pastime to air the grievances of reâ€" formers, labor leaders and radical politicians by attacking the validity of the last court of resort for interâ€" preting laws and constitution. It ‘has been thé favorite indoor sport/of a few congressmen and senâ€" ators to try to change the character of the supreme court of our country.
