Pres COURT A ABAIN' >
‘Ths Supreme Court has finally - |
han down an opiniow confirming
its ruling of September 12 on the
1 Little Rock school situation. In other
words, it decided how it was going to
| | rule, and then searched for reasons |
to justify the action, -
+ From what has been published of
the 17-page opinion, it appears the
Supreme Warren Court apent con-
siderable time setting itself up as the
supreme law of the land.” Since it
Shas taken it upon itself to change in-
terpreation of laws to meet changing
iological conditions, and has de-
chhred itself the supreme lawmak
the land! Congress had bett
pilotect itself. Congress has pre
voualy felt it should législate to meet
‘changing conditions, ,but since the
. Court now says it cen do the job, and
ig getting away with it, Congress is
‘in dire danger of loss of all power,
|} In the opinion, read by Earl War-
.fren,. groundwork is apparently Jaid
to try to remove atate officials from
fice. This sounds unusual, but the
; Court must have had something like
‘this in mind when it said that no
| state: official “can war against the
' Conatitation (aa interpreted by the
} Court): without violating his under-
, taking to support it.”
This can be constived as nott ing
legs than a warning of further curt
a¢ion——or an invitation to somaine
to'start proceeding to oust all Sou¢h-
ern .0fficials opposing the: Court's
