THE RECALL OF JUDGES
In his message to congress vetoing the resolution
admitting New Mexico and Arizona to statehood, Presi
dent Taft makes an excellent argument against the recall
provisions as applied to county and state judges. Whether
the president was justified in vetoing the resolution or not
may be open to discussion, but there is no question about
the soundness of his views upon the recall as applied to
judicial officers and the message in question should have
a careful persual by every thinking American. We have
space for a short extract only:
“The recall is devised to encourage quick action, to
lead people to strike while the iron is hot. Supporters of
such a system seem to think it would work only in the in
terest of the poor, humble, weak and oppressed; that it
would strike down only judges supposed to favor corpora
tions who are affected by the corrupting influence of the
rich. Nothing is further from the ultimate result.
“Themotive it would offer to unscrupulous combina
tions to seek control of politics and the control of judges is
clear. Those having the best opportunity of rousing the
majority of the people to action under sudden impulse
would profit by the recall. Do they not include those hav
ing money enough to employ firebrands and slanderers in
a community, stirrers-up of social hate?
“Would not self-respecting men hesitate to accept
judicial office with such a sword of Damocles hanging over
them? What kind of judgments might those on an un
popular side expect from a court whose judges must make
decisions under such legalized terrorism? The character
of judges would deteriorate to that of trimmers and time
servers, and independent judicial action would be a thing
of the past.”
