Danderfield of Hempstead, Philosophers Weigh Plea For Independent Cabinet Philadelphia, Nov. 33 (If) A proposal that the next forward step in American democracy should be a Presidential cabinet with more independent powers was before the American Philosophical Society today. It was made by Edwin S. Corwln, professor of jurisprudence at Princeton University, to the annual Fall meeting of the society last night.

"I am of the opinion," he said, "that the enlargement of Presidential power within Tecent decades confronU the American people with a task ot deliberate constitutional reform; and further that this Just consist in stabilising in some way perhaps by a new type of cabinet of the relationship between the President and Congress, for this today, with the rapid relegation of the Supreme Court to a secondary role, is the center of gravity of our constitutional system."
