HOOVER FACES JOB OF FILLING HOLMES' POST I Coolidge Believed Certain of Consideration for Supreme Bench. liy 1 nitrrl !'rr* WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.—President Hoover today began going over the roster of the leading members of the American bar and Judiciary for a successor to Oliver Wendell Holmes in the supreme court. Justice Holmes resigned Tuesday. He had been in declining health for some time, and gave this as his reason. He will be 91 in March. Hoover set about at once seeking ing a man of sufficient caliber to nominate for this high office. The United Press learned authoritatively that a list of possibilities even is now being drawn up and will be submitted for his consideration. Should this list fail to produce a candidate upon whom immediate agreement can be reached, the President probably will confer personally with the most likely of the lot. Coolidge a Possibility In that list, the United Press learned, the following names probably will be included: Calvin Coolidge, former President. Roscoe Pound, dean of the Harvard law school. William D. Mitchell, attorneygeneral. Benjamin N. Cardozo, chief judge New York court of appeals. William S. Kenyon, United States circuit judge of lowa and former senator. Warren Olney Jr., lawyer of San Francisco. Curtis D. Wilbur, United States circuit judge of California, and former secretary of the navy. Newton D. Baker, former secretary of war. John W. Davis, former ambassador to Great Britain and democratic presidential candidate in 1924. Taft Precedent Recalled The name of Calvin Coolidge particularly was intriguing to many persons in Washington. There would be ample precedent for the appointment of a former President in the case of William Howard Taft, who served several years on the court. It also was pointed out in some quarters that his appointment might answer effectively the perennial question of what to do with Coolidge. Dean Pound long has been a close associate of Hoover, and was a member of the Wickersham commission. He has had a distinguished legal career, and has been mentioned previously for the supreme court. He is 62. Cardozo Regarded Highly Attorney General Mitchell’s father was a distinguished Minnesota juriset, and his son has followed in his footsteps. He is 56. Cardozo has an international reputation, and has served for seventeen years on the high courts of New York. He is said to be regarded highly by both political parties, and has received honorary degrees from many leading universities. He is 61. Should Baker or Davis, both outstanding Democrats, be named, it would be partially for the purpose of "balancing” the court, since some feel it now is topheavy with Republicans. There is some doubt, however, whether Baker would accept, in view of his presidential possibilities.
