By the Associated Press. In the historic room where for nine years he presided as Chief Justice of the United States, a distinguished audi- ence gathered yesterday to honor the memory of William Howard Taft. The meeting, called by the bar of the court and presided over by George W. Wickersham, Attorney General under President Taft, was addressed by Elihu Root, who was Secretary of State in the Taft Cabinet; Circuit Judge Arthur C. Denison of Grand Rapids, Mich., who had been closely associated with the | late Chief Justice in cleaning up the dockets of the Federal courts; former Senator William Cabell Bruce of Mary- land, Andrew Squire of Cleveland, Ohio, and William Marshall Bullitt of Louis- ville, Ky. Justice Sanford Eulogised. Immediately following the ceremonies Associate Justice Bdward Terry Sanford, who died within a few hours of his dis~ tinguished chief, was eulogized by Chauncey G. Parker of the United States Shipping Board, Willlam L. Prierson of Chattanooga, Tenn., for- merly Solicitor General, and Charles N. Burch of Memphis, Tenn. Mrs. Taft was present, as were mem- bers of the family of the late Justice Sanford. In the audience were Secre- tary Stimson, Attorney General Mitchell, Solicitor General Thacher, a number of Federal judges and many members of the bar. Essentially a Judge. Root ascribed Mr. Taft's failure po- litically to the fact that he essentially | was a judge, swayed by his deep sense of respopsibility, insisting on all occa~ sions on carefuliy considering all prob- lems confronting him, and reaching his decisions without political considera- tions. In his defeat for re-election, Mr. Taft presented the extraordinary spec- tacle, Root said, of deep relief in escap- ing from the White House and its duties as President. “He really loved the people,” the dis- tinguished jurist continued, “and his heart was warm toward every man, woman and child. One could not know him without being his friend and lov- ing him.” Young clergymen are said to be drift- ing_after training in Wales into Eng- land where stipends are higher and the prospects of advancement are better.
