Justice John J. Clarke to Speak on Roosevelt Court Plan
Former Associate Justice John J. Clarke will speak for 15 minutes at 8 p m on radio station WJZ and NBC about President Roosevelt’s court reorganization proposal. William Draper Lewis of the American Law Institute told the Senate Judiciary Committee that the plan is conservative and would prevent harmful action by inaction. The committee seeks docket status from 1925 to date to gauge congestion and litigation load. Lewis argued no constitutional need for amendments, but urged adapting interpretation to modern social concepts.

Oshkosh Contractors and Labor Reach Settlement Today
In Oshkosh the last trace of the building trades walkout ended as smaller contractors signed the union agreement on wages and working conditions. About 35 contractors employing 150 to 175 carpenters accepted the terms after a morning conference at the Master Builder association hall. Some workers returned to jobs while others will resume work tomorrow. The settlement follows precedent set last Tuesday when three large firms capitulated. Union reporters will receive $1 more per hour, with total building costs rising as overhead is covered.
