WASHINGTON. Feb. 13—<r.P>— Associate Supreme Court Justice Louis Dembitz Brandeis. distinguished 82-year-old dean of the bench and noted Jewish liberal, retired from active duty today, ending nearly 23 years of service.
He tendered his resignation to President Roosevelt, effective immediately. in a two-line letur which read:
NO REASONS GIVEN "Dear Mr. President:
“Pursuant to the act of March I, 1937, I retire this day from regular active service on the bench. "Cordially, Louis D. Brandeis.”
He gave no reasons for his action, although it was recalled that he has been in ill health and returned to the bench last week for the first time in a month.
In addition, he has been deeply interested ln the world Palestine resettlement movement and was snid to be desirous of devoting all his energies to that problem, which has taken on newer and more grave aspects du# to Jewish persecution abroad.
Mrs. Brandeis declined to permit newspapermen to question the Justice.

The Daily Trojan—
How It Works
(.4* Editorial)
Much as members of the staff may like to think otherwise. pretending that this is a real, grown-up newspaper, the Daily Trojan exists essentially and primarily for the university, ready and able at any time to do the things that are wanted by thc students or the instructors.
Because that is the case, and because very little ls known —outside a small group of journalistically inclined students and professors—about the organization and mechanics of the Daily Trojan, lt has seemed advisable to explain, in a series of two editorials, the management of the campus newspaper. Today’s article will deal primarily with organization. and one that will appear on Thursday will explain the procedure for getting stories into the paper.
The day-to-day unity of the Daily Trojan is achieved through the persons of the editor, the managing editor, and the assistant editor, who are charged with supervision of all material that goes into the paper. Because editing the paper is too large a task for these three to handle, along with their school work, much of the actual work is done by the desk editors—a different one for each day of the week—who work under the supervision of the executive heads. Just as the desk editors are different each day of the week, so are the reporters and the copyreaders different.
It is this change in personnel each day that causes much confusion in the minds of most students. One feels that if he calls the Daily Trojan office and leaves a message with the desk editor on Monday, the desk editor on Tuesday will ipso facto know about it also. This is not true, because the

POPULARITY MEASURED
This concentration on violins has made Lofner's organization a truly distinctive "style band,” much like that of Guy Lombardo and Wayne King; Lofner's music ls recognizable at once.
His popularity can be measured from the fact that his recent success at Denver was so great that he was held over for the longest engagement of any band which, despite competition with orchestras belonging to Ted Fio-Rito. Ozzle Nelson, Henry King, Seymour Simons, Harry Sosnlk, and Herbie Kay.
TIME EXTENDED
In addition to its leader, who plays the piano, and a girl vocalist, the band numbers 11 pieces including three saxaphones, two brass, three violins, drums, and .bass viol.
The dance will be held at the new Los Angeles Breakfast club, 3201 Los Feliz boulevard, and will mark the opening of this ballroom, which has been under construction until recently.
Through the courtesy of Dean Pearle Aikin-Smith, dancing time has been extended from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Chaperones will be Mr. and Mrs. Clee W. Foster and Mr. and
Searles Coes On Sabbatical
Dr. Herbert L. Searles. associate professor of philosophy, sailed recently for England on the first leg of a five-month sabbatical which will cover four and possibly five European countries.
Dr. Searles will visit England, France, Germany, Italy, and perhaps Switzerland. The first part of the trip will be devoted to studying for one month each, at Cambridge and Oxford, ln England, and the universities of Paris and Sorbonne ln France; he hopes to investigate some of the psychological and philosophical contemporary trends in the two countries, as well as view the political situation.
"I am anxious to find out through personal contact with teachers and lecturers abroad Just what they are accomplishing ln the field of psychology," said Dr. Beatles before leaving.
The professor plans to devote tns last half of his Journey to sightseeing.
Dr. Searles has booked pas.sage for his return on the French steamship Normandy and will be back In Los Angeles sometime ln July.

communicating a philosophy of life,” Dr. Fleweiling has selected a few stories from the vast storehouse of Oriental tales to illustrate the problems of practical life. PRESENTATION EXPLAINED He explains this method of presentation by the fact that "our western world has not had a sufficiently extended civilization nor prolonged habitation ln one place to build up any considerable folklore, for we are essentially nomads, unlike the Orientals from whom most of thc stories of Arabian Nights and many common fairy stories are taken.”
The mastery of technique and the mastery of detachment are the two principles upon which Dr. Flew-elllng's philosophy is based. NATURALISM ILLUSTRATED The first, the spirit of naturalism, ls aptly illustrated from a portion of .an old Chinese saying that "to be unconscious of one's feet implies that the shoes are easy."
Dr. Fleweiling believes the modern theories of education are overlooking the power of self-dlsclpllne, which is the gift synonymous with the gift of technique. "Ours ls fre-qently called the age of technique and yet from the standpoint of the highest technique it ls perhaps the most Impoverished.”
Concerning detachment. Dr. Fleweiling will cite the case of an ancient Chinese cabinet maker, who when asked how he achieved the supernatural execution ln his art, replied, "I first reduce my mind to absolute quiescence. After three days ln this condition, I become oblivious of any reward to be gained. Five days, and I become oblivious | of any fame to be acquired. Seven days, and I become unconscious of j my four limbs and my physical 1 frame. Then . . . my skill becomes I concentrated.”
