1

of the courts, I think, but as I said, we don't have any

2

real strong feeling about it one way or the other. It

3

is just a name. Kow do some of the others feel about

4

that? Do you have any strong feelings about it one way

5

or the other?

JUDGE PROCTOR: Is the proper name of the

7

Federal Court, District Court, or isn't it the United

8

States Court for the District?

9

THE CHAIRMAN: United States District Court.

10

JUDGE FAIRBANKS: With your permission, I will

11

think up a few names, put them in writing and send them

12

to you for whatever use you want to make of thorn. I am

13

not opposed to this name absolutely, but I thought since

14

we are changing the general character and concept of the

15

court, now might be a good time to change the name, too.

16

THE CHAIRMAN: We certainly would appreciate

17

any suggestions along that line. We don't want to spend

18

too much time on names. You will notice that the name that

19

we have tentatively adopted for the highest court is the

20

Supreme Court of Appeals. That is as the comment indicates

21

is sort of a compromise between tradition and function.
