The article comments on various political developments and issues related to the U.S. The Senate will have first crack at the judiciary bill, and hearings have been set for March 9. This means that we shall have at least another months and perhaps several months, of the Great Debate on the judiciary. This should surely convince all those who have been talking as if a coup d'etat might momentarily be expected that no action is contemplated except through that most democratic of democratic procedures interminable public discussion. Meanwhile it is becoming clearer that the labor, farmer, and progressive sentiment of the country is supporting the proposal. The Lewis and Green forces have for once found something on which to agree.
