TAFT HOLDS PRESIDENT’S JOB HARDER THAN CHIEF JUSTICE TilE EARLY CONFIRMATION EXPECTED NAVY GROUP LAUDS NAMING OF HUGHES ‘HUGHES' SON QUITS| N ASU. 3. SOLICITOR Leaves Government Service t Upon Father’s Elevation to Chief Justice. BY DAVID LAWRENCE. I Fate has removed from the Govern- ment one of the most brilliant young men in it, namely, tice of the United States. As _solicitor general, would have had to argue in the Su- preme Court of the United States be- fore his father and, while there is; no law to prevent it, nevertheless the proprieties have always demanded that Jjudges on the bench should not sit in cases in which they might be in any way related to the persons arguing be- fore the court. ! Several weeks ago, when a friend was suggesting to young Hughes that as| solicitor general he might be appearing | in the Supreme Court while his father | was counsel for private companies in | litigation with the Government, the so- | licitor general remarked with a smile: “Oh, that will never happen—we shall not let it happen.” i The friend knew perfectly well the propriety involved, but, professing in- nocence, inquired: : “Does that mean that you are afraid ©f being beaten?" “Well,” said the Solicitor General with a twinkle in his eye, “you know | that is always a possibility.” The elder Hughes is naturally proud of the law record that his son has made Charles Evans | Hughes, jr., son of the new Chief Jus- | | young Hughes and was gratified when out of the clear sky, with no previous suggestion from | the Hughes family, the President named | Charles Evans Hughes, Jr., to the high- | est position in the Department of Justice | next to the Attorney General. Now.! however, the son must bow to the father and leave the Government serv- ice. Young Hughes will go to New York | probably to take over some of the work | in which his father was engaged in pri- vate law practice. (Copyright, 1930.) Highlights in Career Of Charles E.

Dr. Hagner time and again entered his state room to speak to the distinguished patient, but he seemed to have difficulty in im- pressing upon Mr. Taft that the time had come to leave the car. Others Help Him Rise. Gently, the doctor asked Mr. Taft to get to his feet, but it was necessary for several others to assist him. Step by step, Dr. Hagner and his aides guided the footsteps, once firm and vigorous, as the sick man left the train. In the narrow passage between hi§ state room and the side of the sleeping car the former President grasped the handrails to steady himself, although he literally was being carried along. A trained nurse, who has been with Mr. nearby. After Mr. Taft reached the vestibule of the car, he was held by stalwart hands until bring a straight-backed chair, into which he was eased. Then the chair was._picked up by three men, who low- ered it gently down the steps to the station platform. Trace of Smile Lights Face. As the former President settled into a wheelchair Dr. Hagner said: “That’s rather a tight fit, but it won't be for long.” A trace of the famous Taft smile lighted the former Chief Justice’s pale and drawn face for an instant and his eyes seemed almost to twinkle, but the lids quickly drooped again, Occasionally and with apparent effort, Mr. Taft opened his eyes to look about, but he spoke to mone of those who gathered to meet him. The chair was rolled slowly across the broad concourse of the Union Sta- tion to the regular automobile en- trance, where the automobile of As- preme Court, an old friend and col- Just as he came into the light of with a series of explosions from pho- flashlights. He seemed momentarily startled, but, veteran of The wheel chair was rolled almost to the running board of the auto- mobile and the former President, held firmly by two attendants, was lifted through the car door with two men inside holding to his hands and guid- ing him. They eased him to the edge of the seat and then assisted him to a more comfortable position. Mrs. Taft took a place beside her husband, while Dr. Hagner and the trained nurse and Mr. Taft's secretary entered another car which followed closely on the three-mile run to the Taft home. The machines stopped at & side entrance of the house and the sick man was again helped from the car and through the doorway to an elevator which had been installed near this entrance several years ago when he first became seriously affiicted with heart trouble. The former Chief Justice immediate- ly was put to bed and made as com- fortable as might be, although at the time the lawns of his home were crowd- ed by hundreds of the curious. Whether he will be sent to a hospital for treat- ment today still was undetermined. Bladder Aflment Is Cause. The immediate cause of Mr. Taft's present fllness was a bladder aflment. This was complicated by a weak heart and high blood pressure. Months of hard work in an effort to clear away the Supreme Court docket, with the] strain of attending the funeral of his half-brother, Charles P. Taft, in Cin- cinnati, in' late December, had so| kened him that he found it neces- sary several weeks ago to go to Gar- field Hospital here for treatment. i Some improvement in his condition | followed and he was taken to Asheville, | N. C, for a rest. For a time it seemed as though he was improving there, but | several days ago his physicians realized | that the improvement had ceased and | in agreement with his family decided that it would be safer to have him back at his home here. At the same time it was decided that | his mind should be eased of the evi- | dent worry over his duties as Chief | Justice of the United States. There- fore he was induced to prepare and sign his resignation, which was brought | to Washington yesterday by his son, Robert A. Taft, and presented to Presi- | dent Hoover. — Square Rigger Auctioned. * RYE, N. Y., February 4 (#).—A beau- tiful old square-rigger is to be main- tained in its element by descendants of Vikings.

With three justices of the United States Supreme Court already eligible for retirement and two more becoming eligible in the next two years, the res- ignation of Chief Justice Taft is re- garded as presaging a reorganization of the highest tribunal of the land. It is held reasonably certain that President Hoover, during his present term of office, will have the appoint- ment of the majority of the justices, and if he is re-elected, it is probable that Justice Stone will be the only pres- ent member on the bench at the close of his second administration. Justices Holmes, Van Devanter and Brandeis are now eligible for retire- ment, all of them having reached the prescribed age of 70 and having served 10 years on the bench. Justice Holmes feels that, should he retire, the release from the exactions of his office_might hasten death. He will be 89 in March. Justice Brandeis is exceptionally strong for his age and would, under ordinary conditions, be expected to re- main there several years longer. Justice Van Devanter became eligible for retirement last Spring and is likely the first of the three eligible members to retire. Justices McReynolds and Sutherland both will be eligible for retirement in two years. Justice McReynolds may be expected to resign soon after becoming eligible and may not remain that long. Justice Sutherland is in poor health. It is a serious question in the minds of his friends whether he will be able to remain on the bench until he is eligiole for retirement. Justice Sanford will be eligible for retirement in five years and Justice Butler in six. It will be 13 years, how- ever, before Justice Stone will reach the retirement age of 70. Should subsequent appointments, which are bound to follow during this administration, be of the character of that made tolay, the court’s general attitude will remain what is termed conservative by some and reactionary by, others. Judge Hughes' views on prohibition are much in line with those of the re- tiring Chief Justice. VETERANS’ AID URGED OF LABOR DEPARTMENT Three Agencies Join in Behalf of Disabled Military Men Un- employed Here. The Labor Department today had be- fore it for consideration a proposal made by the District Department of the Disabled American Veterans to estab- lish, in conjunction with two other Fed- eral agencies, an employment office to seek jobs for disabled veterans of the United States military forces. The Dis- abled American Veterans organization is working with the Veterans' Bureau and the United States Employment Service in the establishment in other cities of such offices. E. Claude Babcock, commander of the Veterans’ Association for Washington, today wrote Francis I. Jones, director general of the United States Employ- ment Service, calling attention to the fact that the normal ratio of veterans to Washington's population of more than a half million is added to by the presence here of four Federal hospitals which daily discharge men in search of Jobs. f Bridegroom Is “Fussed.” BUCHAREST, February 4 (#).—This is about a blushing bridegroom-to-be.

(Continued From First Page.) Mr. Hughes into conference, but not at his office. The two talked the matter over at the breakfast table. Further, it was said at the White House today that the only people in Washington who knew that Hughes was to succeed Taft, were the President and Attorney General Mitchell. Mr. Hughes 1s not expected to come to Washington until after he is offictally notified of the confirmation President Hoover reached Mr. Hughes in New York over long-distance tele- phone yesterday afternoon shortly after the resignation of Mr. Taft had been announced. Mr. Hughes accepted the offered appointment, immediately. Later the appointee told newspaper men that he would accept the post as the great- est opportunity for service that ever has | come to him. Thus did a surging tide of events catch up these two distinguished Amer- | icans, whose names loom large in their | country’s history. For one it brought the end of a career that has led him along the difficult path of public serv- ice to the “two loftiest offices of the American Government. To the other it bore the beginning of a new and | greater chapter in a career alrcady brilliant. Hughes Withholds Statement. In greeting New York newspaper men at his Jaw offices in Lower Broad- way he said he would issue a formal statement as soon as he received formal | notice of his appointment, but that | he would resign at once as a justice of | the World Court. | He explained that his election as| justice of the World Court had merely | John Bassett Moore and his term would | have ended in September. The new regulations require that World Court justices hold no public office in their own countries and that they devote the greater part of their energies to World Court work. He said he had already informed the court he would not be a candidate for re-election, as he was reluctant to spend the neces- sary time away from the United States. Shortly before announcement of his nomination, Mr. Hughes had issued the following statement in praise of retiring | Chief Justice Taft: Praises Taft. : “I regret most deeply that Chief| Justice Taft is unable to continue in | office. “‘His work as Chief Justice has fitly crowned a great career and will have an abiding influence. It was both the fine quality of that work, and the spirit in which it was performed, evincing not only the most conscientious industry and judicial independence, but an in- tense loyalty to the institution, that have given great satisfaction to the country. Freed from the exactions of the office, it is hoped that he will find his days lengthened and that his heart will be cheered by the tributes of esteem and warm affection which he will Te- | ceive in abundant measure from his grateful fellow countrymen.” While Taft is the only man in history to serve as President and Chief Justice, | Hughes missed the former by an ex- itremely narrow margin. Opposing Woodrow Wilson in the campaign of 1916, he failed of election by 23 elec- toral votes. So close was the balloting that the outcome was in doubt for days. In their personal characteristics there is a wide divergence between the two. ‘Taft brought to the Supreme bench his cheerful philosophies and his famous chuckle. ‘With Hughes, the student of affairs and the “austerity of intellect are pre- dominant. Hughes' career began in New York, where his legal abilities brought early prominence and an opportunity for the Republican mayoralty nomination in 1905. This he declined. Two years later he became governor of the State and in 1909 he began a second term, but resigned in 1910 to accept appoint- ment s an associate justice of the Supreme Court. This came from Taft, then President. The Republican national convention |at” Chicago nominated him for the presidency on June 10, 1916, and he resigned from the Supreme bench on the same day. After his defeat at the polls he returned to private practice, but in 1921 became Secretary of State in _the Harding cabinet. He was the principal American dele- gate to the Naval Arms Conference of 1921 and astounded the world with his demands for extensive reduction of sea forces. He left the cabinet at the beginning of President Coolidge's second term in 1925, International Justice. His international prominence brought him appointment to the Arbitration Court of The Hague by Coolidge in 1926, and two years later election by the Council and Assembly of the League of Nations to an associate justiceship on the Permanent Court of International Justice. In addition, he served as chair- man of the American delegation to the Sixth Pan-American Conference in Havana in 1928, Otherwise, the last few years have been spent in private legal practice, which has brought him many times before the bar of the Supreme Court. Taft began and ended his career in the judiciary. He was appointed Chief Justice of the United States on June 30, 1921, by President Harding. In this office he worked assiduously, preparing his opinions in long hand, and fighting off the encroachments of failing health. | | W. 0. GOODRICH DIVbRCED.

DAILY, DINNER—ONE DOLLAR ARRANGEMENTS FOR RATES BY WEEK OR MONTH Only Man to Hold Both Posts Declares Executive’s Duties More Exacting. Willlam Howard Taft, the only man who has served this country as its President and as its Chief Justice, is of the opinion that the duties of the President are “more exacting, difficult and nerve racking” than those of Chief Justice. Drawing on his unique experience as head of the executive and judicial branches of our Government, he once “If one is constituted like an ordi- nary man life in the presidency, while not presenting as hard mental and in- tellectual labor as that of Chief Jus- tice, does enormously consume nervous energy and is greatly more trying than work on the bench. At least that was my experience.” The principal difference between the exactions of the two offices, he believes, is that in judicial work the Justice has the assistance of his colleagues, who share responsibility of decisions, and the benefit of oral arguments by coun sel, briefs submitted on both sides of the controversy, and control of one's time for careful ‘study. The presidency, he feels, is different in that the Chief Executive may have to make a de- cision on the instant or overnight, when the risk of faulty judgment is great. Often, also, the President is required to reach his decision without being ‘muy advised, and frequently without an opportunity to consult his cabinet. “The presidency,” he said, “attracts in the sense of authority one is sup- posed in that high office to exercise, and there are those who greatly enjoy its constant exercise. But even in the strongest it takes much out of a man, and the strain of office is felt long after retirement to private life. “I do not mind what is sometimes called the monastic 'ife of the bench, and, as I have stated, the duties of "‘:l‘t Pre:ldem are more exacting, diffi- cult and nerve racking than th of ~Chief Justice.” - e TAFT IS PRAISED FOR PUBLIC SERVIGE Distinguished Officials Regret His Retirement—His Suc- cessor Warmly Indorsed. of the judiciary committee, predicted a unanimous report for him from his committee.

LONDON, February 4 —The resigna- tion of Chief Justice Taft and the ap- pointment of Charles Evans Hughes to his place divide interest in the Amer- jean Naval Conference “all lawyer” delegation today with the vexatious problem of tonnage limitation, over which discussion was resumed at St. James’ Palace this moraing. Regret at the cause of Taft's re- tirement is mingled with enthusiastic of his succession by Hughes. and “logical” are the terms applied most by the American delegates to Hoover's elevation of the former Secretary of State to the highest judi- cial post in the country. ‘Among the non-American Conference delegates, several of whom were associ- ated with Hughes in Washington in the years 1921 and 1922, there also were complimentary comments upon the lat- est honor that has been conferred on him. ‘The new Chief Justice is a familiar figure among the judges and lawyers of England, who remember him with special pleasure from the time he came here in 1924 as the president of the American Bar Association. His grace- ful public addresses on that occasion enhanced the great reputation he al- ready enjoyed, and, in consequence, his leadership at the Washington Confer- ence. The London Times said this morning that the “news of Taft's resignation will be received in all parts of the world with deep regret, but not with surprise. Taft has packed into his life, which runs beyond the usual allotted span, & record of legal and public serv- ice of extraordinary variety. Hughes his experience and sheer ability is admirably fitted to uphold the high standard of the office into which he now has been called.” (Copyright, 1030.) 1929 lives rescued from ship- y British lifeboats totaled 363, d or helped to Durin; wrecks and 32 vessels were save safety. wra-vrn-v At MOTHS OR BEETLES in furniture can be KILLED Seruritp Storage 1140 FIFTEENTH ST A SAFE DEPOSITORY FOR38 YEARS CAASPINWALL .
