SIMPLE CEREMONY MARKED AD-
VANCE OF EDWARD DOUGLASS
WHITE TO CHIEF JUSTICE.
|NDUCTED INTO OFFICE TODAY
Overwhelming Modesty of White
Caused Most Simple Ceremony at
His Advancement to be Chief JUS
tice of Supreme Court.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 19.-Ed-
ward Douglass White assumed the
duties of chief justice Of the Uniter
States supreme court at 12:OS today.
Because of the overwhelming mod
esty of Chief Justice White, officials
of the court were uncertain as to
the exact details of the ceremony
OF the day until they had actually
occurred. In a general way, the broad
custom attending the induction into
office of the head of the court were
followed.
Unlike the inauguration of a pres
ident as the head of the co-oriinate
branch of the government, the induc-
ton into office Of chief justice of
the United States has always been
a comparatively unostentatious oc-
casion. Instead of an escort from the
capitol to the white house composed
of gaily attired civic organizations
and seasoned military commands,
new chief justice has only his black
robed brethren on the bench in the
procession from the robing room to
the court room; instead of his ap-
proach being heraldei by the loud
huzzas Of cheering thousands, the
advance to power of a new chief
justice is announced by nothing more
than the solitary tones of the court
crier; instead of an inaugural ad-
dress outlining his policies the only
utterance Of a new chief justice is
the solemn words of his oath of Of
flee.
The dignity resting IN the customs
founded on the swearing into office
of John Jay, John Rutledge, Oliver
Ellsworth, and John Marshall, and
perfected in the days of Roger b.
