BRITAIN S Presidental Possibilizy Charles Evans Hughes, associate Justice of the United States supreme court, is still named very frequently as the Republican nominee for the presidency, despite his expressed de- termination not to seek the nomina- tion and the doubt that prevails in regard to his views on some pressing national questions. He adheres strongly to the opinion that a mem- Ler of the nation’s highest court should not be involved in politics. Before becoming a supreme court Jjustice on nomination by President Taft, in 1910, Mr. Hughes was serv- ing his second term as governor of New York state. He won high re- pute by his activities as counsel for the legislative committee which in- vestigated the insurance business, and this led to his election gov- crnor. He has been a practicing at- torney in New York city and a pro- fessor in Cornell University Law school and the New York Law school. Justice Hughes was born in Glens Falls, N. Y, on April 11, 1862, and studied at Colgate and Brown uni- versities and the Columbia Law school.
