by Coolidge and a close personal friend of Herbert Hoover, he is a republican. But he is a fighting champion for liberal interpreta- tion of the constitution and the rights of congress to legislate as against opinions influenced by per- sonal, political, or economic bias.
 If Hoover were to be reelected, Stone undoubtedly would return to his old place in the Hoover "medi- cine ball cabinet"
 For a supreme justice, Stones background is unusually diversi- fled. He started out as a teacher of law and got into the habit of judging without the service in corporation law to which most justices have been largely con- fined.
 He left his past as dean of Co., lumbia University law school to join the big firm of Sullivan & Cromwell, where he had a chance to learn the tricks of Wall. street. Finally he served as attorney gen. eTdl III the CaDl1eC.
 Personally, Stone probably is the courts most popular member. He "gets around" more than any other justice and has a strong sense of humor.
 Hush on Air Crash Probe
 A legend is still floating around to the effect that the crash of an American Airlines plane in Arkan- sas, which killed r persons, result cd when dope fiend, who had taken out heavy insurance just be- fore the fight, suddenly murdered the pilot.
 Although this fantastic version wasn't mentioned in the Bureau of Air COmmerce's report, which officially declared the tragedy a mystery, the report conspicuously omitted mention of certain evi- dence which aided the build-up of the theory, and orders have been issued requiring that pilot compartments be locked and pas sengers barred therefrom.
 Several phials of morphine were found in the wreckage. A hole which some thought probably had been made by a bullet fired inside the plane was also discovered in 8 piece of metal. The wreckage also turned up an unidentified revolver. Then there was the aforementioned rumor that passenger had been financially embarrassed and had taken out a large amount of insur- ance.
 The official report, although ad- mitting the possibility among others of an interfgerence with the pilot, neither explained nor mentioned any of those discoveries. The rigid Department of Commerce censor ship has resisted efforts to obtain more light on the results of the investigation.

Washington, April 9-Every so often the nation has to have new chief justice of the U. s. Supreme Court. The next one, many insiders believe, will be Justice Harlan Fiske Stone.
 Stone is the youngest and most vigorous member of the courts lib- eral bloc. His personality and his forceful dissenting opinions have made him candidate for the man. tie of the beloved late Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes.
 Holmes never became chief jtlS- tice, but Stone is only 63 and some of those who have ROose- velt's confidence are sure the president will elevate him to that post if he ever gets the chance.
 Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes is "A, beyond the retirement age and not very happy. Justice Louis D. Brandeis, although in spiritual kinship with the New Deal, is 79 and hardly likely to succeed Hughes if it falls to Roose- welt to choose a successor.

 Controvery Shifts To Capital
 The controversy is now shifting from the Pacific Coast to the Ma tional capital With President Roos- eyelt expected to name a new Mari time Commission shortly, Shippi < Board officials said among it's prob lens will be the prescribing of min imum wage scales and reasonable working conditions for United States seamen.
 Shipping Board officials said comprehensive data on wages and related matters now held by the board will be turned over to the commission and it will probably confer with the shipowners and seamen's representatives before pro- mitigating minimum standards.
 The commission, to be named by the President, comes under the mari- time Act, and gives the commission control of subsidies to ship owners and authority to establish minimum wages and working conditions.
 Unlimited Results Feared
 Efforts were made yesterday by the San Francisco junior and senior chambers of commerce to avert any possible strike of the Pacific Coast long, shoremen. They stated that anything might cause an in- ternational marine strike that would have far reaching and unlimited re- suits. Union leaders and members were asked to consider arbitration and sane continuance of the pres ent relation until settlements can be made peacefully.
