Washington, Aug. 25. President Roosevelt signaled a continued push for judicial reform, pledging a more complete plan after Congress shelved the court expansion. He hailed the lower court bill as a step and urged cooperation among branches to end a perceived obstruction by the legal system. He outlined gains such as faster appeals and government defense of constitutionality, while noting omissions like no extra district judges and no new blood on the bench. The remarks came amid talk of constitution day outreach and a warning that the issue is far from settled.
