Refusal of Parker Should Be Straightforward Says Dean Carpenter Thinks That if Man Is Not Considered Of Supreme Court Calibre, He Should Be Dismissed for That Alone By ELEANOR JANE BALLANTYNE “It is to be surmised that the senators who refused to confirm the nomination of Judge Parker really felt that he was not of supreme court caliber, and if that is correct, it is most unfortunate that it wasn’t placed squarely on that ground so as to make a president be ware in the future in his selection of candidates,” said Dean Carpenter, of the law school, yesterday, who does not feel that the attack made upon Judge Parker on the ground of his decisions being unfair to labor, in his upholding the “yellow dog” contract, were warranted. “There was nothing left for a lower federal judge to do under the state of the law, but to enjoin the use of persuasion to induce em pioyees, wno naa enierea into me. employment under a contract not to join a union so long as they continued in that employment, to break that contract,” said the dean. “This was the ground of the decision in the famous Hitch man case in which Justices Holmes and Brandeis dissented, and these dissents gave much encourage ment to labor. Tri-City Case Cited “T h e statement by Senator Borah that the later Tri-City case in the United States supreme court modified this holding in the Hitchman case, is wholly un founded. In the Tri-City case there was no contract involved. No federal judge, situated as Judge Parker was, having any competency in the law whatever, could have done differently in en joining the unions from inducing a breach of one of these “yellow dog” contracts in the Red Jacket cases. “Of course,” Dean Carpenter went on, “the labor unions cannot be blamed for their attack upon Parker, although it was not really an attack upon him, but upon the United States supreme court’s con servative decision in the Hitchman Roberts Liked case that they were aiming at.” Concerning Owen J. Roberts, the man now being considered for the supreme court vacancy, Dean Car penter said: “Owen J. Roberts is a man of an entirely different type. He is one of the ablest lawyers of his years in America. I have heard him speak on three different occa sions, and on each of these I was favorably impressed with his ana lytical and keen mind, and his ability to express himself briefly, without a superfluous word. One who hears him always feels that he has handled his subject ade quately and comprehensively, yet tersely. Teaching Experience Valuable “I know nothing of his legal scholarship, but I surmise that it is of a high order, and that his early experience as a professor of law at the University of Pennsyl vania has furnished a foundation that will be valuable for him if he becomes a member of the su preme bench. “His expressions in regard to the prohibition amendment should not be taken against him even by the drys, for he was simply ob jecting to prohibition by constitu tional amendment and not by leg islative enactment. This is a dis tinction taken, and an attitude ap proved of by most political scien tists and lawyers.” Samara Announces List of New Members Samara, honorary botany so ciety, pledged at a tea Tuesday afternoon, the following students: Jane Carson, Daye- Marshall, Katherine Orne, Florence Wough ter, Lucilc Wirth, Mildred Onslow, Lily Strom, Pauline Kidwell, Cath erine Dunlop, and Elaine Wil liams.

Rex—"Mountain Justice.” State—"Song of Kentucky.” Colonial—“The Love Doctor.” Heilig—"Ingagi.” * * * Paramount is putting on a pa rade this week at the McDonald theatre, and what a parade it is. In the line of march we have some of the best known and best loved of our screen celebrities. One can really Imagine Maurice Chevalier as a Paris cop, but who could ever I conceive of fat Harry Green as a toreador? We’d be almost sure bull wouldn't get badly hiftt, yet Paramount is full of surprises. Ken Maynard breaks away from straight westerns for once to do a highly dramatic tale of love and justice in the Kentucky mountain country. These feuds are worse than a Chicago gang fight. Another Kentucky angle is pre sented at the State. “Song of Ken tucky’’ breathes of the race track, and simply abounds in jockeys. Richard Dix is a competent phy sician in "The Love Doctor" at the Colonial. This degree must be D. M. L., Doctor of Many Loves. “Tngagi” is a good show to see if you are disgusted with your present state of life. It is reason able to admit it is better to be a victim of a rolTing pin than to be a close resemblance to Pithecan thropus Erectus, or whoever1 those African creatures descended from.
