F. Reed to the Supreme Court. Earlier this year he named Prof. Frankfurter and 40-year-old Wil-
. liam O. Douglas, who was chairman
of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Although Mr. Roosevelt's desire for a New Deal mmajorit on the Supreme Court actually will not be realized until Mr. Justice Butler's Successor is confirmed, the struggle for control of the Court probably ended on election day in 1936. -But on Feb. 5, 1937, Mr. Roosevelt sent to Congress his plan to reorganize the court by expanding its membership to 15 justices and, in effect, to place a younger, more liberal man on thé bench beside each oldster to support New Deal laws. That plan failed in everything but the division of the Democratic Party. A few months later retirements and deaths began giving * Mr. Roosevelt other means of establishing’ Administration philosophy in the judiciary.
Van Devanter First to Go
Associate Justice Willis Van Devanter was the first to go, retiring after 26 years as a member of the Court with a record of voting for 10 and against 15 New Deal acts. He with Mr. Justice Butler and Associate Justice James Clark _McReynolds were the stalwarts of the antiRoosevelt group. Mr. Justice McReynolds remains on the bench. Geographical considerations and religious considerations are expected to be minor ones in selection of Mr. Justice Butler's successor in comparison with the test of political faith. The new justice might be a Republican, a Democrat or an Independent. But it is reasonably certain that he will be wholly sympathetic with New Deal objectives. Mr. Murphy perfectly meets that requirement,
Roosevelt and Hughes Pay Tribute to Jurist
WASHINGTON, Nov. 16 (U. P).— Supreme Court Justice Pierce Butler died early today, leaving but one conservative member remaining on the bench of the natioa’s highest court. In a eulogy delivered from the ,bench at noon Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes .announced that last rites would be held tomorrow at 11 : A at St. Matthew's Cathedral
Roosevelt Pays Tribute
The President expressed his personal regret in’'a statement and in a personal letter to Mrs. Butler. “I had known Justice Butler for a great many years and I always regarded him as a personal friend,” Mr. Roosevelt said. “His undoubted great ability, his complete frankness in the expression of his philosophy and hi honest convictions commanded my respect and, in common with his many friends, I sincerely regret his untimely passing.” The Rt. Rev. Monsignor Edward L. Buckey of St. Matthews Cathedral visited him in his hospital room on several occasions before his death and administered the last rites of the Catholic Church. Mr. Justice Butler ‘had been a patient in the hospital since Sept. 22 for treatment of a bladder ailment. Mr. Justice Butler is survived by his widow, four sons and two daughters. Mrs. Butler and three of Mr. Justice Butler's children have been with him nearly constantly during his recent illness. They were his two daughters, Miss Margaret Butier, who lived with the Justice and Mrs. Butler here, and Mrs. Edward EK. Dunn, Baltimore. One of his sons, Leo, is. a Washington contractor.

boast of having been born in a log cabin. ’ From his beginning, he rose to become a famous railroad lawyer and a member of the nation’s highest court.
During his years on the bench, Mr. Justice Butler was classified consistently as a ‘conservative and, though a Democrat, he voted consistently against New Deal legislation and against most of the economic emergency legislation of the states. During his years on the bench, Mr. Justce Butler was classified consistently as a conservative and, though a Democrat, he voted consistently against New Deal legislation and against most of the economic emergency legislation of the states. = He voted against gold clause invalidation, AAA, NRA, railroad pensions and the Guffey Act. He was the author of the famous opinion in the New York minimum wage law test case in which the court held that the states could not regulate the wages paid women. He voted against the New York milk control law and the Minnesota mortgage moratorium, both of which were upheld by the tribunal. Mr. Justice Butler was born on St. Patrick’s day morning in 1866. His parents, Patrick and Mary A. Butler, were both devout Catholics. Born of hardy pioneering stock on a farm near the town of Northfield, Minn., young Pierce Butler soon was obliged to do his share of the endless farm chores.
Rode Horseback to College Undaunted, young Pierce rose early, helped about the farm, and then rode five miles on horseback to attend Carleton College in Northfield. At night he rode home again and pitched in to help with the farm work. On graduation in 1887 Mr. Justice Butler left home and began reading law in the offices of Pinch & Toohey in St. Paul. To earn the money with which to maintain himself in this unprofitable work he tussled with milk cans in a nearby dairy in his spare time. Two years of this life earned him admission to the bar and as a re-
- |sult he was able to obtain appoint-
ment as an assistant county attorney of Ramsey County. Two years later the County. Attorney’s post became vacant and Pierce Butler was chosen to fill it. e married Miss Annie Cronin of St. Paul in 1891. Called to Bench in 1922 Mr. Justice Butler's tenure of office as County Attorney was his last essay into public life until he was called to the bench by President Harding in 1922. Though a Democrat politically he never took part in political activities. For the most part Butler preferred to devote himself to his homelife and to his law practice which grew steadily after he gave up the job of county prosecutor. He maintained his law offices in St. Paul, where he was associated with William D. Mitchell, who later became Attorney -General under President Herbert Hoover. At one time Mr. Justice Butler was general counsel for the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha Railroad. :
PRESIDENT PRAISES JEFFERSON IDEALS
WASHINGTON, Nov. 16 (U. P.). —President Roosevelt yesterday reaffirmed America’s belief in the philosophy of Thomas Jefferson that the average opinion of mankind is superior to the “dictates of the selfchosen.” . Mr. Roosevelt laid the cornerstone of a $3,000,000 memorial to the third President. The Chief Executive digressed from his prepared text to say that he hoped to return to the site when the memorial is completed in January, 1941, “His term expires Jan. 20, 1941. He recognized the possibility that the clash between totalitarian and democratic doctrines might continue for centuriés to come. “But we in the United States are more than ever satisfied with the Republican form of Government based on regularly recurring opportunities to our citizens to choose their leaders for themselves,” the President said. ;

Reds March to Baltic Bases
Red Army units were busy marching into their Baltic bases in Lithuania, adjoining Germany, and in Latvia, after having garrisoned other bases in Esthunia, across the Gulf of Finland from Helsingfors. The Finns watched with comparative calm and it was noted that reports emanating from Helsingfors showed no inclination to buckle under the Sovizt frown. One dispatch, relayed from Helsingfors to Copenhagen today, charged that Red troops were marching into five important Latvian towns which had not been designated as garrison towns under the Russian-Latvia accord. . : From the Allied: viewpoint, the war on the seas was not considered out of control, the long-heralded Nazi aerial menace had not yet developed seriously and the war of wordy threats was providing opportunity for sharpening of the economic weapons which are the main reliance of Great Britain and France: > Hint Economic Federation
London sources said that an important announcement in connection with British-French economic co-operation might be expected soon as a result of the visit of French Finance Minister Paul Reynaud to London. While no sensational action is expected, it was believed that some development toward an economic federation between the two nations might be envisaged, including a customs union and a pooling of the resources of the two empires. Such a move, it was pointed out, might lend reality to the idea of an eventual United States of Europe and thus begin to bring into focus the ultimate war aims of the Allied powers. Admittedly such schemes must still be in the realm of speculation, but the temper of the peoples on: both sides in this war has been such that some elaborate and radically different plan for the future security of European society has: appeared to be essential to ultimate restoration of peace.
Balkans Seek Peace Basis
The - Balkans, meanwhile, continued to grope vainly for the basis of a peace bloc agreement. In Bucharest, it was believed that Rumanian officials were sounding out developments with one eye on Soviet Russia but there appeared to be little if any progress toward getting the little powers of Southeastern Europe to drop their quarrels and join in a common cause—until the threat of war comes closer to their capitals. In London, the Admiralty said today that—as usual—no information would be given out as to whether the British battle cruisers, .Hood, Repulse or Renown were patrolling the Atlantic Ocean. Dispatches published in New York had reported that the battle cruisers and other British warships had cruised to the Canadian coast within recent weeks, seeking German warships which have been acting as sea raiders.

be amendment of the Act to require confirmation by the Senate, and that the second step should be the repeal of the Act itself, followed by the termination of the agreements. “Farmers of the United States, if enabled to obtain the earning power, will buy far more goods from our manufacturers than the farmers of any part of the world,” he declared. He said the output of surpluses can be diminished more readily by introducing new crops to occupy the acres now growing the excessive quantities.
Defends AAA Program
Mr. Smith strongly defended the Roosevelt Administration’s AAA program. : The AAA provides farmers with an opportunity to control their respective crop surpluses and to adjust production in the following years so as to permit their orderly flow to market at reasonable price levels, he explained. Mr. Smith contended that Governinent loans on basic farm coms modities are essential if farmers are to ‘maintain control of their surpluses. He characterized the soil conservation features of the act as a hational responsibility for future generations. Mr. Smith predicted that the farm problem and its solution again will be one of the major issues in coming political campaigns. : Agents Award Trophy Mrs. Raymond Sayre, Ackworth Ia., administrative director of the Associated Women of the American Farm. Bureau Federation, told the convention that the American farmers must become masters of their own destiny and that the only way to do that was through co-opera-tives and organizations such as the Farm Bureau. :
efforts are concerned. Since July 7 he has made 26 speeches in 12 states and the District of Columbia. Belief that Mr. Roosevelt is “giving McNutt a run” does not at all assure that White House favor will continue to shine on hing.
Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace, Solicitor General Robert H. Jackson and Secretary of Commerce Harry L. Hopkins variously figured in Washington political talk as men to whom the President would willingly confide the Presi-. dency in 1940—if he could. One by one these men faded to the Sotiparative obscurity of their own jobs. Then Mr. McNutt came home from Manila and to the surprise of politicians—inciuding Postmaster General James A. Farley—was given a job which could become a springboard to the Presidency and was invited to become an unofficial member of the Cabinet.
Roosevelt and McNutt
Discuss Security Plans WASHINGTON Nov. 16 (U. P.) — Federal Security Administrator Paul V. McNutt today reviewed the So-
~| cial Security structure in a confer-
ence with President Roosevelt but said it would be unwise to predict
9 what revisions might be request or
made in the next Congress. The conference had been regarded as important in that from it might come some indication of major revisions in the Social Security system. Mr. McNutt said that his discussion with Mr. Roosevelt had been considerably overs rated. The only point in Social Security Act revision which Mr. McNutt was willing to discuss concerned the broadening of its provisions to extend benefits to seamen. He said that he approves Mr. Roosevelt's suggestions that seamen be accorded these benefits, particularly because they are hard hit by the neutrality act provisions which ban American ships from Europe. Before the discussion, requested by Mr. McNutt, it was said it might include a proposal to sell annuities through postoffices.

Senator Robert F.. Wagner (D. N. Y.), “father” of the Social Security Act, would authorize the Government to sell annuities of $1200 or less at a cost substantially below that charged by private concerns. The reported plan to place the annuities on. sale. at postoffices recalled the similar sale of “baby bonds” of the Treasury Department. That plan has proven very successful ‘with’ more than $2,000,000,000 worth ‘having been sold since 1935.
