July 23. When Vice-President Garner took off his cent and went to work: at his repair Job on the administration's senato . rial machinery, he made it plain that he wasn't signing up for an all cummer Job. The first thing he did was to state his views privately to the effect that. If he had his way, he'd close up shop and let everybody go home and tell the folks how prosperous they had become under the New Deal. He agreed, however, after an Inti mate conference with administration leaders, to attempt one chore first. , It was to try to push through a plan which he had suggested and which the administration liked any way, according to those who are In a position to speak with assurance on the administration's preferences. But, for t very delicate reason. It had not been feasible to Insist oil- this par ticular proposal while Senator Robin son was alive. The plan, It can be authortattvely stated, was e, bill the y Ice -president felt might be Jammed through the senate with Immediate adjournment tbereaiter( or at least a recess) as the price. It would create an eleven-man court, an associate Justice for each of the ten Judicial circuits, with the chief Justice over all. A constitutional amendment would then be offered setting the retirement age of Justices at 70. This la the point that worried Mr. Robinson's friends: It was considered probable that an effort would be made to provide that all appointments to the uupreme bench thereafter be regional. The candidate would have to come from the geographical area within the Cir cuit made vacant. That would have eliminated Senator Robinson.
