Bill for Judges Is Dead as Brownell Snub Persuasion
In Washington the Democratic chairman of the House Judiciary Committee called the omnibus federal judges bill dead for this session. He said it will die unless Attorney General Brownell meets him, amid Brownell’s Europe trip and a nearing adjournment. The plan would add 42 permanent judgeships nationwide, with state allocations and a few temporary posts. The Senate rejected a similar move, but House leaders kept to their stance that no new judges will pass without key talks. Meanwhile in New York, Evangelist Billy Graham opened a week of juvenile delinquency sermons at Madison Square Garden urging youth to shun lust and pursue Christ, stating the root of crime lies deeper than environment or parents.
