"The Judicial department of the government is gradually losing power to the other two departments the legislative and the executive" Jus tice Allshle said., "The other departments are taking It over by aggression. I do not refer to the present discussion about the New Deal and reorganisation of the United States supreme court. This started many years ago with the or ganization of boards, bureaus and agencies, all Invested with a sort of judicial power. "We now find them exercising their power In the legislatures, saying there shall be no appeal to the courts from their rulings. A few years ago, In the days of the Republicans, we heard much criticism of bureaus.
