News that ' another vacancy is coming has conjured visions of the possibility of getting a court majority more to '[their liking. They generally re'lcard the couit as 5 to 3 against ithem. with one place vacant. If two candidates of their choosing, like Judge Kenyon of lowa, shoo’d be named, the court major 1 Ity would be reversed in their fav- ’ or six to three. If they should get ’ even one of the two candidates the so-called conservative majority ' of the court would l>e reduced to ‘ 5 to 4. Thev regard Parker ns a 1 proposed addition to the conservative group. • The extreme pres.uro of the nd--1 ministration has brought only ’too reported conversions to the support of Parker, Senators Goff. Repn., W. Va.. who recently an- • nounced he would retire, and Mc--1 Culloch, Repn.. Ohio, who has been ‘ alternately reported against ParkI er and on the fence. This is not : enough to put Parker over unless the southern Democrats fa’l in 1 line. Their two votes are counted in lib' poll of 4Q Parker supporters.
