President Hoover has selected
Owen J. Roberts. of Philadelphia,
one of the Governments special
counsel in the oil scandals, to fill
the vacancy on the bench of the
United States Supreme Court, it
was learned today.
The name of the noted Phila-
delphia attorney will be sent TO
the Senate either today or tomor,
row, and there is every indication
that his nomination will be ac-
ceptable to the Senate, which or
Monday rejected President HOov
er's first choice, Judge John j,
Parker, of North Carolina.
Senate leaders have informed
President Hoover they were con.
fident of confirmation, which
was no inconsiderable factor in
determining the Presidents
choice. He did not care to court
another defeat such as he sus
tanned in the spectacular fight
over Parker.
Interested Senators have found
1t difficult to classify Roberts as
either "a conservative" or "a
liberaP' in the ordinary sense of
those terms. He has been a
lawyer and prosecutor, but
never a judge. Consequently,
there are no decisions of mis-
which can be dug up and fought
over as was the case with Parker,
