Says Politics Being Played With Judges Virginia Senator Assails Naming Os Sobeloff As Judge WASHINGTON (UP) — Coniidnbly more is to bo beard of Sen. A, Willis Robertson’s accusation that President Eisenhower is playing politics with the federal judiciary In connection with race relations. • Robertson charged that Mr.Elsenhower named a prominent Jewish lawyer to the federal bench in the south to obtain pressure group votes in northern states. The lawyer is Simon E. Sobeloff, presently solicitor general of the United States and before that, chief judge of the Maryland court of appeals. Mr. Eisenhower nonu inated him to be judge of the U. S. court of appeal* for the fourth circuit made up of five states: Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia.
Nqrtlj Cavqliag and South Carolina. Robartaon io a Virginia Democrat. He told the senate judiciary committee last week that three of the five slates comprising the fourth circuit did not Want Sobeloff on their bench. There was no challenge to his legal ability nor any personal objection *0 Sobeloff. Robertson arffbed ' only that Sobeloff was an enthusiastic Supporter of the supreme court's ruling on racial Integration, that he had said any state should be able in 90 days to come up with a program for effecting integration in Its schools. “I must object,” (Robertson told the xommittee. "to his being given the responsibility of deciding in the years ahead numerous cases of vital concern to these people in Virginia and the Carolinas who lack confidence in him and whose faith in public justice would be shaken by his presence on the bench. ---■ "They object first of all. because of the circumstances of his selection, which they feel was politically motivated. They recognize his as the choice, primarily, of an official who not only is the legal, advise* |t> -the President but also is the chief architect of hia party's plank to win this year s elections and that he is backed by political pressure groups which claim contfo} of enough votes to swing the balk nee of power in key "states far removed from those in the fourth judicial circuit." JtdberWion was referring to attorney general Herbert Brownell Jr. as the legal Adviser and political strategist who picked Sobeloff. His statement identified, by implication. the national association for the advancement of colored people and organized labor as the northerfl pressure groups whose election support he charged Mr. Eisenhower sought in sending Sobeloff's nomination to the senate. "It ib generally agreed.” Robertson added, "that probably a majority of the cases which come before the fourth judicial circuit during the next few year.s and perhaps many years to come, will involve questions touching racial segregation. "Shajl we be compelled to try these cases before a judge who has proclaimed his personal views on the subject from the lecture platform throughout the nation, as well as before the supreme court, itslef? Or. are the people of Virginia and North Carolina and Soufft Carolina not entitled to hearings before, juffges whose views are J£ss firmly fixed ?” Robertson challenged Soheloff’s statement that ttys supreme court is "the final formulator of national policy.” The senator held that national policy-making was not a constitutional function of the judiciary. The judiciary committee voted 9-2 last week for Sobeloff's con- . firmation.’ Robertson has already a 35-page speech for use when the nomination reaches the senate floor. If a few other Southerners chime in. the senate will face a filibuster in the final weeks of this session. Trade in a Good Town — Decatur.
