THE JUDGE AS A HUMAN BEING
(Continued from page 4)
there alone everything was subordinated
to the exact and complete expression of
what was to be said.’’ The poor man
succumbed to its charm to such an extent
that he was in the habit of reading a few
paragraphs every morning before break
fast. I do not seek to substitute this
regimen for the daily exercise in calis
thenics. Some of us prefer our literature
like our food in less concentrated tablets.
I do no more than suggest that the morsel
hastily gulped down may r have a savor
all its own for the discriminating palate.
But I overemphasize and exaggerate
if I seem to paint the picture of any
active opposition that is more than spo
radic and exceptional to so amiable a
weakness as a love of art and letters. A
commoner attitude with lawyers is one,
not of active opposition, but of amused
or cynical indifference. We are merely
wasting our time, so many will inform
us, if we bother about form when only
substance is important. I suppose this
might be true if any one could tell us
where substance ends and form begins.
Philosophers have been trying for some
thousands of years to draw the distinc
tion between substance and mere appear
ance in the world of matter. I doubt
whether they succeed better when they
attempt a like distinction in the world
of thought. Form is not something added
to substance as a mere protuberant adorn
ment. The two are fused into a unity.
Not long ago I ran across a paragraph
in the letters of Henry James in which
he blurts out his impatience of these at
tempts to divide the indivisible. He is
writing to Hugh Walpole, now a novelist
of assured position, but then compara
tively unknown. “Don’t let any persuade
you—there are plenty of ignorant and
famous duffers to try to do it—that stren
uous selection and comparison are not
the very essence of art, and that Form
is not substance to that degree that there
is absolutely no substance without it.
Form alone takes, and holds and pre
serves substance, saves it from the welter
of helpless verbiage that we swim in as
in a sea of tasteless tepid pudding.” This
is my own faith. The argument strongly
put is not the same as the argument put
feebly any more than the “tasteless tepid
pudding” is the same as the pudding
served to us in triumph with all the glory
of the lambent flame. The strength that
is born of form and the feebleness that
is born of the lack of form are in truth
qualities of the substance. They are the
tokens of the thing’s identity. They make
it what it is.

HUMANIZING IMMIGRATION
(Continued from page 5)
Willia m N. Doak, believes that many
such visitors employ illegal means to stay
in this country longer than they are en
titled. Mr. Dickstein believes that Mr.
Doak is right in certain cases, but that a
total suspension of the granting of ‘‘exten
sions’’ would be a great injustice. Ac
cordingly Mr. Dickstein will block any
efforts directed toward such suspension.
Congressman Dickstein is convinced,
also, that President Hoover’s order of
September, 1930, for the stoppage of im
migration was illegal, and he will tight
against Congressional approval of the
President’s act.
Your reporter also learned that a Con
gressman of Texas introduced in the
House an anti-immigration bill demand
ing a total stoppage of immigration until
September 30. 1937. With such a bill the
majority of the Representatives of the
House would be in agreement. The dif
ficulty of Mr. Dickstein s task in his
new post can thus easily be imagined.
In addition to fighting this new immi
gration bill, Mr. Dickstein will also have
to battle against great odds to carry
through the reforms he has in mind. His
job is a most difficult one, and for its
successful accomplishment he will need
the cooperation of all liberal forces in
the country.

vivid that one almost sees that grand old
man in all his lovable simplicity of soul.
Professor Albert Einstein was in Paris
on the eleventh of November, 1930. It
was Armistice Day and France was pay
ing solemn homage to the valiant dead
who sacrificed their all on the field of
honor and whose supreme sacrifice was
in vain, for the world is still impreg
nated with the spirit of vindictiveness.
France, figuratively speaking, was rever
ently kneeling at the tomb of the Un
known Soldier in the shadow of the Arc
di Triumph. When a newspaper re
porter asked Herr Einstein for his reac
tion of the solemn occasion, he promptly
answered with all the naiveness and
candor of a great mind:
“ I <> me nothing is so absurd as the
sight of a young man in a military uni
form.”
“Coming down the Rue di Rivoli that
afternoon, continued Mr. Van Paassen,
a> we sat round the table in rapt atten
tion, our coffee cold and food hardly
touched for fear of missing a single word
or an eloquent gesture of the guest, “I
thought 1 saw a familiar figure sitting at
a round table on the open terrace of the
cafe. I stopped near the table, behind
the man s back, saw the broad-brim black
Fedora and the unruly mass of graying
hair. To make sure it was Einstein, I
passed up and down the sidewalk, looking
at him and at the same time striving to
be unobtrusive. Saw his face, his dreamy
