Washington City Aug s-The last time
Justice Jackson was in Washington City
was on the occasion OF the rehearing I'm
the income tax cases last May. He had
been absent from the city and from the
bench since the preceding fall when. soon
after the converting of the October term
Of the court. he had been compelled To go
South on account OF his rapidly declining
health. During his absence there had
been contradictory reports MS 10 his ply
steal condition. but the prevailing opin-
ION among his colleagues on the bench
was that he would never again be able 10
resume his seat. Mr. jackson had the
reputation IN this city. and especially
about the supreme court Of being very
sensitive concerning the discussion OF his
health In the public press. and he re-
ferred TO the subject very sparingly in
his own conversation. The other mem
hers OF the court were therefore poorly
advised as 10 his condition. This state
az Affairs is said 20 have been the reason
for the equivocai character of the an
nouncement Of the decision 20 grant a re-
hearing In the income tax cases. which
o. necessity depended upon Judge Jack
sons presence. He was IN Washington
CITY on the occasion OF the hearing for
several DAYS and gave his attention as

fnued for three days. took r5rt In the
consultation OF the court. and. when the
