COUNCIL PASSES NEW TAX LEVY FOR $168,677 'Continued from page 1) with an offer to sell the property where the Little League and the Babe Ruth league ball diamonds are now located. Freund pointed out the cooperation of the VFW with the city and community when funds were available, but made it clear that some action on the part of the club is now necessary to clear a mortgage on the property. In the discussion of the VFW property, it was pointed out that the land is outside the city and perhaps the township should also be brought into discussions. The sale price of the property given by Freund is $35,000. If the property is to be retained for playground purposes, it was suggested the several organizations may be interested in cooperating. SEEK ANNEXATION John Koerber was spokesman for a group of petitioners from the Country club road and adjoining areas seeking annexation to the city. Petitioners are anxious to have access to the city sanitary sewer system. The Council indicated that a clean sweep will be followed to be sure all vehicle owners have purchased .stickers. In fairness to those who regularly purchase licenses, it was the expressed opinion that strict enforcement must be followed. A recent accident inwhichthe discount truck and equipment ~ was badly damaged has brought interested citizens to the front to give assistance. A request to sell car wash tokens on Friday and Saturday of this week was granted. Renewal of lease for use of the Dr. W.A. Nye property for public parking was approved at a rental fee of $200 per month. A recent survey showed ninety-five corners in the city having no street signs at present. Approval was given to purchase the signs at a cost of $1,492.21. The Council passed a resolution commending Frank Low for his efforts as chairman of Marine- Festival Day, which reached new heights this year. K! SUNDAY'S A SER FAITH If we have faith in Christianity, then we have faith in God and in the purpose of our own existence upon earth. Faith is strength that chases away doubt. Faith is strength that builds courage, that nourishes hope. If we could not believe that God will not forsake us, then the trying times of our lives would be much more difficult to bear. Faith is something we can live by. If we have faith; in ourselves;" in our fellow man,, we will be able to more readily understand the real purpose of our life and our existence. Whatever life brings your way, a'ways cling to faith. Believe that God will give you the strength you need. Believe that tomorrow will be a day of sunshine. And, when you are most afraid, when you are deep in d o u b t , pray for the added strength you need to persevere. When you lose, as sometime you must, turn not to bitterness. Pray for guidance and hold to your belief. If you do, you will soon discover that God has never forgotten you Best Bays kfflOOl!

Green Street Much more than "cronyism" is involved in President Johnson's nominations of Justice Abe Fortas as Chief Justice and Judge Homer Thornberry as Associate Justice of the Supreme court. If Justice Fortas and Judge Thornberry posses all of the qualifications desired for service on the Supreme court, their long and close friendship with the President would seem to be small reason for the Senate not to confirm these appointments. However, Senator Robert Griffin of Michigan has presented a studious review of the underlying constitutional role of the United States Senate in granting or withholding its " advice and consent". Senator Griffin has pointed out that James Madison, who himself favored a strong executive, nevertheless advocated that federal judges should be named by the United States Senate. This proposal was later compromised to permit the President to make such appointments with the ad* vice and consent of the senate. Former Senator Paul Douglas of Illinois declared on an earlier occasion that "The advice and consent of the Senate required by the Constitution for such appointments was intended to be real, and not nominal" "Senator Douglas noted that the drafters of the federal Constitution "were fearful that if judges owed their appointments solely to the President the Judiciary, even with life tenure, would then become dependent fcqpon tiie executive". In other .words, as Senator Douglas emphasizes, the naming of federal judges has required the "joint action" of the President an-1 Senate. s Accordingly, it would appear appropriate for the members of the Senate to investigate more than merely legal and judicial backgt of Justice Fortas and "-^e Thornberry. In fulfilling their role the Senators have a constitutional right and obligation to question the philosophy of judicial decisions which may affect the nation's future as directly as do any actions of the Congress or of the President himself. However, one may view Justice Fortas' position in supporting reversal of lower court convictions in obscenity cases, it is abundantly clear that a motion picture, regarded as obscene by certain members of the Senate Judiciary committee may raise serious questions as to the advisability of elevating * him to the office of Chief Justice. In reviewing Judge berry's record, attention has been drawn to the case of University committee, et al. v. Lester Gunn, et al., decided in April of this year. In that case, Judge Thornberry joined in entering an order denying relief to the plaintiffs even though his holding that a Texas statute was unconstitutional entitled the plaintiffs to a favorable judgment. Judge Thornberry seemed to feel that the Texas State Legislature should have a second opportunity to enact another statute which (hopefully) would meet constitutional requirements. Such a judicial holding must seem egregiously injudicious to members of the bench and bar, as well as to many laymen. Even some who appear to be loyally upholding the President's appointments have voiced disapproval of the personal and political relationships which are shown to exist between the President and Justice Fortas and Judge Thornberry. It was reported, for instance, that Judge Fortas, while serving on the Supreme court, advised the President regarding the Dietroit riots in July, 1967. hi addition, it was {minted out that Justice Fortas made a personal telephone call to rebuke an individual who had criticized the President's Vietnam policy. The senatorial role in passing upon appointments to the President's cabinet and to judcial offices has been exercis- WED,, AUG., 21, 1968 ed according to its full constitutional intent on numerous occasions in the past. During the Elsenhower administration, Lewis Strauss -- then a member of the Atomic Engery commission and an individual of unquestioned reputation and integrity - was refused confirmation to the Office of Secretary of Commerce. Despite ttfe apparent position of the Minority leader, Senator Everett Dirksen of Illinois, in support of the confirmations of both Justice Fortas and Judge Thornberry, such an outcome seems most uncertain. Indeed, when the Congress reconvenes on Sept. 4, these judicial appointments promise to be among the most lively issues.
