tion of a successor TO Charles r.
Hughes on the supreme court already
is being considered by President Will
son. Attorney General Gregory proba-
bly, viii be called into conference in a
day or two and the appointment may
be made within the next two weeks.
Although the supreme court ad.
ionrned today until October depart
ment of Justice officials are anxious
that the new Justice be appointed
quickly so that he can give considera-
ton during the summer months ia
eases now pending. This is considered
almost imperative in view of the fact
that Justice MeRevnolds is barred
from participation in consideration of
several of the most important cases be
cause he took part in presenting them
to the court as attorney general.
It Is understood the President would
like to appoint John w. Davis, solicitor
general, but may be deferred from do
ing so because Mr.. Davis prepared 9
number of cases now pending for the
department of justice.
Several messages urging the appoint
ment of Former President Taft hav,
been received, but the President is ex
peeted to name n Democrat since th'
court now has five Republicans anC
three Democrats.
