Labor chief urges periodic changes in Supreme Court
Washington (UP) President William Green of the AFL urged the Senate Judiciary Committee to apply the same rule of periodic change to the Supreme Court as to Congress. He backed Roosevelt’s judiciary program and a gradual increase to 15 justices, arguing the court lags in modern methods and needs fresh blood from active labor experience. A letter from carpenters’ union head Hutcheson opposed the plan, warning it would be a devastating error to pack the court with six new members.
