The Supreme Court fight goes merrily on with each side claiming control of the situation. No doubt a compromise easily effected but the standpatters on Sch side are refusing to budge while the great majority in between propose numerous changes I in the proposed law. They ought to reach the first show down this • week and that will interest the people. Senator VanNuys will offer an, amendment to the proposed Supreme Court bill this week, to divide the court bill, having no objection to the proposed changes so far as they effect the lesser courts but he insists there must be no change in the Supreme Court. Just why the same rule should apply is not clear but it will no doubt be fully argued when it goes to the senate. Wise Republican politicians in Indiana notice that Jim Watson is making a lot of trips over the state, speaking at commencement exercises and vther events where
a crowd is assured and they see ' that he is bidding for the Repub- ■ lican nomination for the senate next year. He is slipping along in life, now in the middle seveni ties, has spent forty years in congress and would evidently®llke to complete the job, but the younger fellows of th* party feel lie ought i to step aside and give some of ! them a chance.
