Daley of the National Editor* ial Association commente on the vio lence with which presidential nomi nees for appointive offices are fre quently attacked by Senators who oppose their confirmation, and says: “Senators are immune from civil damages for their commenta in the Senate regardless oT how far it ap proaches blackguardism.” In other words, a Senator may make the most reckless and untruth ful statement« concerning anyone without being held to account, no matter how much these utterances may unjustly reflect* upon and injure the persons so attacked. Scarcely a day passes while Con gress is in session that some member does not indulge in unrestrained and unwarranted attacks on citizens against whom he holds enmity. These remarks» are broadcast to thé country through the Congressional Record and by sensational newspapers, and the victims are powerless to protect them- :e!ves. While members of Congress should have reasonable latitude in criticising persons or policies which they oppose, the wholesale immunity which legis lators enjoy works a grave injustice to many honorable citizens. And, un fortunately, it appears that some Sen ators who make a specialty of reck less talk find no difficulty in securing re-election.
