This article presents the author's views on the reaction of many to U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower's appointment of William J. Brennan to the Supreme Court. In nominating Justice Brennan for the New Jersey Supreme Court, the President continues to put into practice his declared belief that Associate Justices should have judicial experience. The selection of Justice Brennan has won the enthusiastic approval of people as far apart as New Jersey Governor Robert Meyner, who is a Democrat and a liberal, and New York Times columnist Arthur Krock, who has not yet reconciled himself to the Supreme Court's school-segregation decision.
