ADVISE $4,000 FOR
JUDGES PORTRAITS
Provided for In Civil Appro-
priation Bill Reported
to House.

The sad and melancholy days have
come for justices of the Supreme
Court of the United States, for they
cannot afford to buy portraits OF
themselves. But a thoughtful and
generous Government will purchase
fifteen portraits of Supreme Court
judges for $4,000, if the frames are
included, through a provision in the
sundry civil appropriation bill. re-
ported to the House today.
That the Supreme Court judges
could not buy their own pictures was
shown during the hearings on the bill
before the Committee on Appropri-
ations by Albert ROsenthal, of Phila-
deIphia, the artist who painted the
portraits. Representative Tawney,
chairman of the committee, wanted
to know how many of the fifteen por-
traits had been painted for the judges
personally.
Il have not been paid by any OF
them" declared Rosenthal. "They all
told me they were too poor to buy
them. Justice Harlan said: L would
like to5s.have that Portrait. I Dor
rowed a-thousand dollars when was
married, and every year since when
fix up my accounts, l find that l still
owe that thousand dollars Mr.. Jus
tiCe MCkenna wanted to buy one. but
the price was too high"
The poverty of the men who sit on
the bench of the highest tribunal in
the land evidently affected the CAL
lous watChdOgs OF the Treasury, who
scrutinize the expenditures OF the
Government. ROSenthal was careful
to declare to the committee that he
lad made a fiat price of $500 apiece
for the paintings.
THE reason l averaged my price,
he said, "was that there is preju-
dice against going beyond $500 for
any portrait. whether painted by Sar-
gent or John Smith"
The Treasury watchdogs, however,
did not lose sight OF possible raid
on the Government funds.
Does this price include the fra
demanded Chairman Tawney, eying the
painter with some suspicion.
YES" returned Rosenthal, with conf
denCe. Il make the proposition inTlud-
ing the frames and appropriate tablets
and hanging the pictures wherever
their location is decided on
But Tawney was not yet quite salts
fled.
What is the quality of the frames?"
he demanded.
The best quality of gold frame.
could furnish" assured Rosenthal, 81
would not save $50 on a frame"
Various other details. particularly the
size of the Canvases and the amount of
space occupied by the pictures and
frames were seriously discussed by the
committee before it decided to buy.
The portraits the bill proposes to buy
are of Chief Justice Fuller and ASso-
ciate Justices Brewer, Peckham, Brown,
Moody. Gushing, Wilson, Blair, 1redell,
Thomas Johnson, Patterson Chase,
Washington Moore, and William John
son.

TAFT STANDING PAT
ON EXTRA SESSION
Up to the Senate, and Presi-
dent Is Waiting Un-
concernedly.

The President is today unConcerned
over the extra session idea. He has let
the Senate know in terms that cannot
be mistaken that reciprocity must
either be voted on or else the Senate
must take the responsibility for an ex-
ira session very shortly after March 4.
Those who talked to the Executive
this morning say that he is standing
pat They say that he believes the
country Will justify him in reconvening
congress should the Senate fail to
vote and that he is resting comfortably
in that position.
The visitors who call at the White
House insist that under the present
program in the Senate it will be next
20 impossible for the body to clean
up its calendar. Something must be
sacrificed and the President is beir g
urged to help save some of the more
important measures.
The Postmaster General is fearful lest
his postal rate amendment, including
the charges on magazines, will fail in
the rush of the last days. The tariff
board people, represented by John
Chandler Cobb, who called today, do not
want the permanent commission idea
sacrificed, and other interests are ask
ing similar assistance.
1t has even been suggested to the
President that he recall his Japanese
treaty in order to allow legislation now
long pending an opportunity to get
through. 1t was intimated that in the
fight now on against the treaty much
time would be exhausted which might
otherwise go toward the consideration
of other measures.
So far as the White House is con-
cerned, there is no change in the extra
session proposition.

for these big contracts which need to
be- Cancelled, the Secretary told the
President.
Senator La Toilette offered a resoIu-
ton in the Senate yesterday. calling
upon the State and Navy Departments
for the details of these negotiations.
This resolution followed the widely pub
lished statement that the Government
had been compelled to give Argentina
American naval secrets in order to Sc
cure the contracts for American ship
yards. j..
The President approved of the Secre-
tary's plan to hurry the Information to
the Senate. He agrees that there was
nothing done or pledged which Congress
might not know.

they will become a more potent factor
