...delegates and wives at the 81st annual convention of the American Bar Association renewed a year-old resolve to devote their best efforts to the next and most important extension of legal justice: creating conditions for peace through developing the rule of law among nations. But, under the eye of Chief Justice Earl Warren and three other Supreme Court Justices (Charles E. Whittaker, William J. Brennan Jr. and Tom C.

The producer is Hollywood Film Maker John Sutherland, who has reeled off award-winning documentaries, among them the 1954 cancer film, Horizons of Hope, as well as binsful of eye-scratching TV commercials and industrial gong beaters. Sutherland's chemistry films, his first purely educational projects, are concentrated (about 15 minutes) doses of basic science, without musical scores or might-of-industry hoopla.
