BY JOSEPH A. FOX.

While good part OF the Capital de-
voted yesterday to discussion Of Pres
ident Roosevelt's Supreme Court pro-
posal some individuals with reason
ably fair memory and an inquisitive
turn of mind began to wonder just
how much grave space will be required
to inter the "close advisers" Of the
President, whose demise was an
nounced officially Thursday.
Although a metaphorical finger
was put on DR.. Stanley High on that
score by the White House, a six-week-
old copy of Golfers Weekly created a
reasonable doubt In the minds Of
some.
Recent Article Cited.
On December 26 the publication
carried an article that reflected in
marked degree the principles embodied
Friday by the President in his court
message. OF the author. George Creel,
this was said In foreword:
mo man can write more authorita-
lively of the President than George
Creel. The two worked side by side
as members of Woodrow Wilson's OIL
cial family. Twice previously Mr.. Creel
has been privileged to announce the
policies which would determine the
administrations plans. His famous
article of March IL. 1888, set forth
exactly the broad outlines Of the orig
inal New Deal laws. His article Of
September 7, 1886, prophesied cor
rectly the policies written into the
statute books during the last session
Of Congress. In this brilliant article
Mr.. Creel has had the opportunity to
give comprehensive expression to the
plans and purposes which animate
President Roosevelt as he faces his
second term in Office"
In other words. Mr.. Creel, in the
accompanying article, was either 100
per cent correct, or he was as far out
on a limb as the decorations Of q
Christmas tree.
Mr.. Creel may not like the idea OF
premature death, even flguratively
speaking. but he will not have to
apologize for that forecast.
Discussing the pros and cons ol
legislation enacted in this administra.
tion, and the Supreme Court attitude
thereon, Creel took the stand that II
there was any controversy in branches
Of the Government it lay between the
court and Congress, rather than the
court and the Executive, inasmucf
as Congress adopted the laws.

For moment Richard did not answer What
Speller really wanted to know was whether
Richard was going to resign from the navy
and keep Gloria for his wife, or go on in the
service.
Gloria had been the madcap in Richards
life that had made everything 60 wrong. Dy-
manic, black haired, a vivacious creature spoiled
by wealthy parents, Gloria had blinded him
to Margots quiet fidelity; but that not being
enough, Gloria and he had been married no
more than year when she started her cam
paign to get him to resign from the service. For
six long months in their cottage at Waikiki the
battle had been waged bitterly. The climax was
when the S-boats came to Pearl Harbor and
the Rtype were ordered to the junk heap.

Speller glanced at him. Haven't you an ex-

Richard felt something like wad of dry

fast. But he did not show this nor did he turn
toward Speller. He answered softly:

PERMIT is ASKED
FOR ATLANTIC HOP
Merrill Plans Round Trip Flight
to London With Regular
Co-Pilo...

Henry T (Dick) Merrill, veteran
airline pilot, who flew the Atlantic
last year with Harry Richman, has
applied to the Commerce Depart
ment for permission to fly a round
trip between New York and London
early in May, carrying only CO.
pilot, John S. Lambie, his regular
flight co-pilot on Eastern Air Lines.
The application apparently set at
rest rumorS that Merrill will have as
passenger an unnamed Wall Street
fnancler, who supposedly is backing
the flight.
Should any one other than Merrill
and Lambie board the plane without
permission it would constitute a vio-
lation of Federal regulations, it was
said.
Merrill informed the Commerce De-
partment he will use a Lockheed Elec-
ira twin-engine monoplane, formerly
owned by Harold Vanderbilt. He
plans to leave New York between May
! and May 10, following the Great
Circle course to London, taking off
from London on his return trip on
May II, He said he planned to carry
mail for revenue purposes.
