PAGE SIX ever you might want to call them going on now. As one member put it "we seem to be just about knee-deep in ’red herrings’ around here now.” By Harris Ellsworth. M. C. For some time the two federal district judges in Oregon have been badly overworked. The pop ulation of our state has increased nearly 50%. An additional feder al judge is badly needed. The house recently passed and sent to the senate a bill cerating a number of new federal district judges, including additional judge for Oregon. Although the bill was passed without many negative votes an interesting floor battle developed over an amendment offered b./ R( p. Keating, a Republican from New York. He pointed out that federal judges are appointed for life and that during the last 13 years of control by th • one partv numerous vacancies have occur red. The result is a federal judic- iary preponderant ly of one party, amendment simply provided that no more than two-thirds of the newly-created judges should he appointed from one political party. A hot fight developed on the floor. It was pointed out in the debate that of tLe last 1 D federal judges appointed, 182 of them were registered as Demo- mats and only seven Republicans, Thus, it was correctly declared that our system of government which is supposed to consist of three independent branches leg- and judicial. isla t i ve, has in tact loi' some time (except 1941 and 1918 for tiie > when the Republicans controlled congress), been completely con trolled by one political party. The Democrats fought the amendment and it was defeated. For benefit of members of the Democrat party who might a chuckle at the expense of Re- publicans, it may be noted that the Republican congress could have passed this legislation last Io wait until but a Republican president (we thought) could ap- point the new judges’ Now thev will he apopinted by President Truman anyhow. I have been deeply disturbed over the blow dealt a splendid or-1 ganization, the FBI, because the judge in the Copion trial allowed their secret files to be read in open court. These papers con tained numerous names in reports accumulated by the FBI. It sensational stuff, of course, nut I think the reporting of the trial has been generally, if uninten tionally unfair to the FBI. The stuff read at the trial was merely miscellaneous data gathered from all sourts of sources. It was not supposed to be faction and did not represent conclusions or re-1 ports by the FBI. Obviously an I investigating agency must accum- ; ulate mat (»rial of this sort and sift it out. Practically all of that which w a s read in court and widely printed in newspapers rep- resented nothing but worthless chaff. The roading of it not only did harm to those whose names were mentioned but untold harm to the FBI. Thanks to the excellent work of Rep. Homer Angell from the Portland district with whom I have been working closely on the problem, I think some additional neded authorizations for the Wil lamette Hood control projects will be passed at this session.

Also, it was found necessary to substitute two dams on tributaries for one large dam on the McKenzie river. The two substitute dams require tech nical authorization. Apparently this matter will be cleared also. LOCAL NEWS A. P. Hendricks left Sunday evening for Portland where he will spend much of this week on business.
