II am too unhappy to speak.
This is the first time in 80 years
I have been forced to leave my

II cannot risk the lives Of the
loyal men of my staff. I am not

VACATION
TO RETURN AND
face MUSIC"
Liner Due to Reach
Baltimore Sept. 30
By CHARLES A. SMITH

BY CHARLES A. SMITH
LONDON, Sept. 81 QN.SJ.
Slipping quietly away from Lon
don, Associate Supreme Court
Justice Hugo L. Black and his wife
sailed in secret for the United
States yesterday. International
News Service learned today.
Black cut short his holiday to
return home and "face the music"
while laborite and liberal sections
Of the British press defended him
against charges that he is a mem.
Der of the Ku KIux Khan.
ELUDES NEWSMEN
It was revealed the Blacks
sailed for Baltimore aboard the
liner City of Norfolk from
Southampton.
Friends Of the justice disclosed
he cancelled his previous reserva-
ton aboard the liner Manhattan.
He also gave up all plans for a
visit to Ireland.
Checking out Of their hotel and
leaving by a banquet hall en-
trance, the Justice and Mrs. Black
motored to Southampton and
boarded the City of Norfolk imme.
diately upon their arrival.
The fact that they chose a com.
paratively small and slow ship for
their passage to the United States
threw correspondents watching
for them at Southampton off
their trail.
DUE SEPTEMBER 80
The City Of Norfolk is due in
Norfolk September 90 and in Balti.
more September 30.
Friends said the justice ceOSe
the ship mot because he was
afraid to meet newspapermen,"
but because it was impossible for
him to obtain passage on faster
ship, like the Europa or Beren-
garia, which are sailing for the
United States tomorrow.
They declared they had asked
Black whether he would like to
leave statement for publication
after he had sailed, but that he
emphatically replied he wished to
make no comment on the Ku KIux
Khan furore until after he has ar.
rived in the United States and con-
ferred with his advisors.
BOUNDING CHARGED
Black and his wife left their
London hotel after reporters had
moved into rooms on the same
floor. The h tel management
threatened staff members with
dismissal should they divulge in
formation regarding the Justices
movements.
The liberal and laborite newspa-
pers. meanwhile. contended Black
was being bounded because of his
progressive political convictions.
Reynolds News, in an editorial,
asked:
Why are English newspapers
assisting in the most scurrilouS
attack ever launched by reac-
tionarieS on progressive poll

B0rah Insists
Black Not
On Court

CHICAGO, Sept. 81 GN.S0,
Senator William E. Borah still
held a firm conviction today that
Justice Hugo L. Black is not, in
fact, a member of the Supreme
Court.
The veteran Idaho Senator an
nounced his stand at a visit here
before leaving for home at Boise.
He said Justice Blacks appoint
ment and confirmation were un-
constitutional but that Black
could now be removed only by a
Government suit.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

II believe there is one legal
procedure and only one by which
to test his right to the seat.
That, I am convinced, would be
a quo warranto proceeding in.
stituted by the Government it.
self. The Attorney General
would start such a proceeding
to inquire by what authority
Black holds his seat.
"He could start it in one of
the lower Federal courts and it
could then be carried by appeal
to the Supreme Court for settle
ment on purely constitutional
grounds"
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1937-09-21
CLAIMS NO VACANCY

Recalling that he had voted
against the confirmation both in
committee and on the Senate
floor, Senator Borah said:
IT did that on purely consti-
tutional grounds. I contended
there was no vacancy on the
Supreme Court bench. I hold
that under the Constitution a
Supreme Court Justice vacates
only if he resigns, is impeached
or dies. Justice Vandevanter
having done none Of these three
there vas no vacancy.
