Arrangements were made during the day for simple funeral services about 10 o'clock Wednesday morning at the church in Augusta, Ga., attended for years by the Lamar family. No services Wil be held in Washington. After paying tribute to Justice Lamar, Chief Justice White adjourned court un- Ul Thursday, Decislons to have been anvounced today will be dellvered next Monday. Inability of some of the justices to go to Georgia, led the court to appoint a committee consisting of Justices Van De- vanter, Pitney and McReynolds to repre- sent it at the funeral. It was believed here today that because of the important cases now awaiting de- cision before a full court, President Wil- son will make an appointment at once to fill the vacancy caused by Justice La- mar's death. Last fall when Justice La- mar's health became impaired and when a movement was started to retire him on full pay, Secretary of the Interior Lane amd Solicitor General John W.
