The swearing In of Chief Justice Wil- liam Howard Tafr of the Supreme Court _ of the United States as the tenth Chief Justice since the court was in- stituted 132 years ago, is a reminder ¢ it was the only other Chief Justice ot Connecticut, Oliver Ellsworth, who while a senator presented in his own handwriting the bill that . created the Supreme Court. That bill was introduced June 12.,1789. * kK * It is also recalled that Taft's father, Alphonso Taft, was one of the great- est Attorneys General this country ever had, just as he was one of the s le. : tanding scholastic leaders at Yal union speeches at Yale in*the 70s Wére just as much a notable feature as the “closing words” at the alumni; Panquets by Willlam Howard Taft] have been for fifteen years. In this connection a Yale classic regarding Taft's first alumni speech is timely. He was called upon the same day that his father had made a notable com- mencement speech.

Recently when introduced by Senator Frelinghuysen of New Jersey as “the great giant of the west” Capper, who weighs only about 130 pounds, amused the crowd with a reminis- cence of when he first got acquainted with a fellow named Williams, who later became one, of his most inti- mate friends. Cafiper was then Gov- ernor of Kansas and Williams seemed disappointed and dissatisfied. When they got better acquainted Capper asked the reason and Williams said: *“I never supposed the state of Kan- sas conld have a governor who didn’t weigh at least 200 pounds” MEETING TO PLAN PARADE.
