45 Menace to Court
Nashville April 26 Chief Justice Beard and Justices Neil and Shields of the state supreme court defend their refusal to enter the June 4 primary. They say the plan is undemocratic and deprives the people of choosing delegates for a judicial convention. They cite Governor Patterson’s assurances, county conventions, and the Cooper case as factors in the decision and claim the primary aims to influence tribunal rulings. They state they renounced the Cooper decision after its promulgation.
