FOES OF PARKER
CLAIM VICTORY
Administration Leaders See
Hard Battle Ahead, but Re-
fuse to Admit Defeat.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Enough votes to reject the nominal
ton Of Judge John J. Parker as an as
sociate justice Of the Supreme Court
were claimed today by the Senate group
which is opposing his confirmation.
Administration leaders refused to ad-
nit defeat, but frankly conceded that
hard, uphill battle was in prospect
A move to have President Hoover with
draw the nomination, to which vigorous
objection has been raised by labor and
colored organizations, was supported by
some members of the regular Republi-
can bloc.
Taking up the Parker case on Mon
day, opposing forces in the Senate will
come to grips with Supreme Court
nomination at stake, for the second
time within few months. In February
bitter battle was waged over the ap-
pointment of Charles Evans Hughes as
Chief Justice.
The fundamental Of the Parker con-
troversy is much the same as that
which underlay the contest over Chief
Justice Hughes-liberal against con-
sentative opinion.
Parker's opponents claim that he
showed a disposition to favor property
rights as against human rights in up
holding an injunction which restrained
the unions from attempting to organize
the employees of a large West Virginia
coal mining company.
In addition, the Association for the
Advancement Of Colored People has
brought the allegation that the jurist
is biased against the Negro race.
In the face of the move for with
drawal of the nomination, President
Hoover is standing firmly behind the
nominee. If the Chief Executive takes
such action, Senate Republicans believe
it will come only after he has been
definitely informed that an absolute ma
jority Is certain against Judge Parker

THERE are TWO things for which
Edmund Payson Bradstreet of
Cincinnati, o., i; most popularity
known. The first is that he is
the oldest living graduate of Yale
and the second, that he is the old
est lawyer in the United States.
But it was not until a few
weeks ago, when he wrote a let
ter to Yale alumni, that a more
remarkable claim TO distinction
was revealed. 1t was that this
man, who celebrated his Tooth
birthday last June, was predes-
tined to die at an early age OF an
inherited throat and lung afTlic-
ton. The fact he lived beyond
his span in spite of this is, in the
eyes of many, his most note
worthy attainment.
Had Famous Father
In a day of fast and nervous
living a striking contrast is pre-
sented in the life history of this
centenarian, who declared that the
greatest influence in prolonging
his life is a quiet mind and alb
sence of wild excitement"
Bradstreet's father, Rev.
stephen Ingals Bradstreet, was
one of the most distinguished men
of his day. Though he died at ~,
his brief life was crowded with ac-
complishment. He organized the
first church of any sort in Cieve-
land, Ohio, soon after he arrived
there from Amherst, N. II. He
started and published in Cleveland
the first religious paper west OF
Philadelphia. 1t vas he, too, who
raised the money to found West
ern Reserve University and VINO
delivered the address at the laying
of its cornerstone.

to Cincinnati in October, 1854.
1t was there that young Brad
street concerned himself with
h%ealthful living.
II had firmly taken to the idea
that plenty of activity was the
foundation of health and that I
must have it," he wrote. "In q
few months l had found a few
young men of a like mind and we
rented a couple of rooms .
and started a gymnasium. I
have stuck to it ever since"
His Routine
AS far as rules for living Is
concerned Bradstreet says the
whole matter is one for the eXer-
else of hard common sense. His
routine is about as follows:
He arises at 6 in the morning.
takes a cup of mild coffee and a
doughnut. dresses a couple OF
hours later, and then has
other cup, cereal, fruit and rolls.
At noon, he eats lightly, re-
serving the full dinner for eve-
ming. Before retiring. at 10, he
takes a small laxative pill.
He sleeps about seven hours,
but invariably wakes up once or
twice in the night. He doesn't
sleep in the daytime. As impor-
tant a factor in long living as a
quiet mind has been his freedom
from worry. "At. best" he PHI
.losophizes. 1--WE a know but little
about it. but it is surely a good
plan to utilize all we do know, and
seek greater light constantly"
Bradstreet, an old-line Demo-
crat, has many interests. He was
for six years on the board of di-
rectors of the Cincinnati work
house and served for several years
on the Board OF Education. He
helped found the library, rs we'll

[ "Please find this gentleman she told him, and left the boy gaping after her as she hailed cab.
 When Mary Lou did not reappeat after few minutes, as she had promised, both Brynmor and Tony became concerned with her unex- plained absence. Later, when the bell boy delivered Mary Lou's note to Brynmor, he was completely up- set.
 T can't understand it." he told Iony, who gave nonchalant shrug and muttered something about the futility of trying to find reasons for girls conduct.
 It grated on Brynmor's pride to think that the evening had been so miserable for him after Tony had arrived, when it had been so de- lightful before
 Well, old fellow" Tony remarked airily as they prepared to leave the hotel, it looks like the little girl has let us out for tonight"
 They parted with forced cordial ity.
 Tony was shaken rudely from his 5lumbers about nine o'clock the next morning. He strongly despised any suggestion of rising before noon.
 Look here, Wallis, this is bit thick" he muttcred from his pill low. You're discharged, do you hear?"
 This is not Wallis" said gruff voice in his ear, This is your Aunt Ethelberta"
 Dumping Jehosaphatl" Tony looked up, startled, and blinked in amazement at the tall, formidable figure of his aunt.
 T came down here,' Miss Tith- erington began, ito tell you exactly what I think of you"

 Its most indelicate, you know, for a spinster of your age to thrust her way into a young bachelors bedroom" he grinned.

 She settled herself on chair near the bed

 Why didn't you tell me before?" demanded Miss Titherington, mo- mentarily sidetracked by this new and disturbing revelation.

finding a job that engrossed his attention. He was wondering, in stead, what had prompted Mary Lou to dash home in such an ex- traordinary way the previous night.
 Looking back at it he felt that his own conduct had been rather inexcusable.
 Somehow he had been actuated by a savage desire to hurt her. Why should he have felt that way about it? Hadn't her prompt en- gagement to Brynmor freed his mind from any fear that he had let her down in any way himself?
 Yet he found the thought of her marriage to Brynmor particularly irritating. Would he have felt this way had it been some other chap? Some other chap, say, of whom he 1 approved? Of course not. Even then an uncomfortable sixth sense warned him that he would have felt much the same, whoever Mary Lou's new fiance might have been. To be quite candid with himself he didn't like to think of Mary Lou marrying anyone-except himself, perhaps The thought leaped to his mind before he was able to ward lit off. . What on earth are you thinking abOut?" he pondered. "You know that you're not marrying anyone. That would mean the end of your flying. And there's not woman in the world worth that sacrifice"
 All the same, he reflected more calmly, it would be best to see Mary Lou and tell her how sorry he was for his behavior of the pre- ceding night.
 He called and asked Wallis to have his grapefruit and cup of coffee brought to him immediately. His mans well bred astonishment was allayed with the news that he had business at hand
 Half an hour later this same busi- ness brought him to Jays shop.
 Outside the window he hesitated. Now that he was here what could he say to her? Rather abruptly he turned toward the door
 Once more he paused. There, on the side of the entrance, he saw a neat printed card: Smart Delivery Boy Wanted"
 Thoughtfully he de t a c h e d the card from the wall, pocketed it and went into the shop.
