The 75-year-old veteran of many battles at the bar, in congress and on the orator’s rostrum suffered a heart attack shortly after his Easter lunch- eon in his home here Sunday and died within a short time, Although Beck has been vehement in his denunciation of New Deal poli- cies, administration leaders paid tribute to him, “His sudden death,” said Solicitor General Stanley Reed, who as Beck's opponent, argued some recent New Deal cases in the supreme court, “is a great loss to the nation.” Intellect Set Him Off Sheer power of intellect marked Beck among his colleagues in the na- tional house of representatives and in the legal profession. In the United States he was known as an authoritative constitutionalist, ®@ great political orator and “trust buster.” Abroad he was the first American lawyer to appear before the Privy Council, Great Britain’s highest court; was @ bencher of in|Gray’s Inn in London, an officer of the French Legion of Honor and a commander of the Order of the Crown in Belgium. He began his political career as a Democrat, switched to the Republi- can party because of the “free silver’ issue sponsored by William Jennings Bryan, became assistant attorney general of the United States and solicitor general and finally went to congress as representative of & Phil- adelphia district although much of his law practice was in New York. Seated as a Republican, he voted against the Hawley-Smoot tariff bill of 1929 and was said to be the first, Pennsylvania Republican to oppose & protective tariff in the national leg- islature. He contended that the bill delegated to the president powers of ed in congress. Was Profound His oratoricdl powers brought mem- bers of the house of representatives flocking to the floor from the coat rooms af lobbies whenever it became noised around that he was to speak. His addresses were based on pro- found scholarship and natural elo- quence and were acclaimed as mas- terpieces of logic and argument. On Feb. 8, 1930, when he addressed the house on “The Revolt Against Prohibition,” his peroration was the signal for applause from wets and drys alike. He warned that the Re- publican party could. not exist long | JAMES A. BECK “half dry and half wet,” demanded repeal of the Volstead act and urged that prohibition enforcement be left to the several states. He favored the repeal of the eighteenth amendment, but said it could not come for 25 years. Mr. Beck’s public speaking attracted attention soon after he was admitted to the bar in 1884. Literary lyceums | and Y. M. C. A. debates flourished in those days and his services were in} much demand for such occasions | around Philadelphia. He soon attracted notice as a Democratic stump speaker, particu- | larly during the third Cleveland cam- paign and when it ended successfully for his party, he was named federa! | district attorney for eastern Pennsyl- vania. But he left the party fold in; 1896, balking at the Bryan platform. Supported McKinley He supported McKinley for assistant attorney general of the United States. In this position he was engaged largely upon “trust busting,” distinguishing himself particularly in| the government's successful suit against the Northern Securities cor-j poration and in the sugar cases. Res! this post in 1903 he built up ah He kept at this for 18 years, inter- Tupting it in 1921 to become solicitor general by appointment of President Harding. He reentered the service of the fed- eral government when anti-trust suits were again engaging much attention. | Harry M. Daughtery was attorney general and important actions were before the supreme court. Solicitor General Beck conducted or supervised arguments before the high court in approximately 1,000 cases and in 78 the j presidency and thus it happened that | four years after he had been given an | appointment by a Democratic presi- | dent, he received one from a Republi- | can administration, being named an- ative practice in New York. per cent of these the government's contentions were upheld. It was while he was solicitor genera! that he was permitted to practice be- fore the Privy Council of Great Brit- ain, whither there had been appealed a land suit brought by the United States in Canadian courts. As the first American to argue a case before that august judicial body, Mr. Beck at- tracted considerable attention and ‘when the United States won its claim he was given much praise by legal authorities of the land of Blackstone. Championed Allies But he was favorably known abroad before he made his argument to the jEnglish high court. When the World war broke out in 1914 he championed the cause of the allies and did it with jsuch effect that he was elected a bencher of Gray's Inn, London, the first foreigner in 600 years, it was said, to receive that distinction. His efforts broug:it him also his decora- tions from France and Belgium. Mr. Beck wrote a number of books and articles on the war and his essay, “The Evidence In the Case,” was translated into the languages of all the allied nations. When Attorney General Daugherty resigned, Mr. Beck became acting at- |torney general, holding the place un- til President Coolidge took office in 1925 when he gave up his federal post and returned to his practice, this time with offices in Washington well as New York. He was engaged this work when elected in 1927 to the seat in the national house vacated by William 8. Vare when the latter ran for the senate. Mr. Beck defended the right of Vare to the senate place when the bitter fight broke out against the latter in the upper house. A book, “The Van- ishing Rights of the States,” was largely an argument for Vare’s cause. Mr. Beck was born July 9, 1861, in Philadelphia. He graduated from . Moravian College, at Bethlehem, Pa., in 1880 and got @ job as a clerk for the Philadelphia & Reading Railway. Of nights he read law books and for a time assisted the reporter of the state supreme. court. Later he en- tered a law office and finally, in 1884, was admitted to the bar. FATIGUE BLAMED 8&t.
