Carswell Nominated as Youngest Supreme Court Justice Hope
The review recalls Carswell’s past labor rulings and segregation stance in Mississippi at Justice Department request. It notes reversals by the Supreme Court on early labor cases, his 1958 decision on a Pensacola contractor under the Fair Labor Standards Act, and 1959 recognition of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers for Gulf Power Co. It adds conjecture on his potential as a pivotal vote among liberal and conservative justices and mentions Abe Fortas’ resignation context.
