SENATE CONFIRMS
VINSON, EDGERTON
Approved as Associate Justices on
Appeals Bench-McMahon
Also Is Indorsed.

The Senate late yesterday con-
frmed Representative Fred M. Vim
son, Democrat, of Kentucky and Prof.
Henry w. Edgerton of Cornell Uni
versity to be associate justices of the
Court of Appeals for the District of
Columbia.
At the same time Judge John P.
Mcmahon was confirmed for another
term on the bench of Police Court,
where he has served for approximately
20 years. All three nominations were
approved by unanimous consent and
without debate.
Shortly after the appointments were
made by President Roosevelt it ap-
peared possible the Edgerton nomina-
ton might encounter opposition be-
cause of an article Prof. Edgerton
had written that left some Senators in
doubt as to his views of the power
of the courts to invalidate acts of
Congress. The professor assured a
judiciary subcommittee, however, that
he upholds the power of judicial re-
view and his nomination then was
reported favorably. Prof. Edgerton
is former member of the faculty of
George Washington University.
Representative Villson has been a
member of the House for about IS
years, and has taken leading part
In the consideration of proposed tax
revision on the Ways and Means Com
n1lttee. He first came to the House
IN the Sixty-eighth Congress and has
served in each succeeding Congress
except the Seventy-frst.

Wednesday in an automobile accident
at University Park, Md. was to lie in
state this afternoon at the Marist
College.
The Most Rev. Michael j. Curley.

tin P. Mcclure, DR.. Roy J. Deferrari,
DR.. Aubrey Landry, DR.. Patrick j.
Lennox, DR.. Leon Baisier and DR.. Leo

Famous Oriental Scholar.
During 25 years service at the uni
versity, DR., Butin had become a
world-famouS Oriental scholar. He had
written three text books in Hebrew
and was specialist in French liter
eture. In an address in 1884 before
the Archaeological Institute of America,
in which he summarized years of re-
search work on the alphabet, DR.
Butin declared the present alphabet
came into existence not later than
1000 years before the birth of Christ.
He based his statement upon tablets
discovered in Sinai by himself and of
which he had been able to make
translation.
Declined Higher Posts.
OF quiet and unassuming character,
DR. Butin had declined administrative
posts at the university in order to de-
vote himself exclusively to research
work and teaching.
In commenting upon DR. Butin's S
death, Right Rev. Joseph Corrigan,
rector of Catholic University, said in
part:
'The Catholic University of America
mourns today the loss of one of her
ablest scholars in the untimely death
of the Rev. DR.. Romanus Francois
Butin. In many parts of the world
there is also grieving for this gracious
and devoted friend of learning. For
80 years as student, instructor and,
since 1928, full professor, DR.. Butin's
life has been lived in the intimate at
mosphere of his monastery and the
library and museum of the Catholic
University. Excepting for the periods
when he crossed the world as a dis
tinguished member of learned expe-
ditions, he had spent his life here in
work which has redounded to the
prestige of the university"

SENATOR LEE MAKES
ORATORY SPEED MARK

By the Associated Press.
Senate veterans credit Senator Josh
Lee, Democrat, of Oklahoma with a
new speed record for Senate oratory.
Senator Lee spoke so fast yesterday
IN farm bill debate that the official
shorthand reporters had difficulty TAX
ing down his words. They estimated
he talked at times at the rate of $50
words a minute.
Vice President Garner, asserting
that it was the fastest talking he had
heard in his 35 years in Congress, said:
THAT was going some.'
Official reporters said Senator Bone,
Democrat, of Washington previously
was the fastest talker.

and, it is believed, the killing Of some,
has stopped. The spying bureau under
the corrupt Japanese tool, Ottoman
Semeonov, which was charged with
most OF the violence, apparently has
become inactive.
Much blackmail and graft were
mixed with the long period OF es-
pionage, some suspects buying their
freedom. 1t is declared that Japanese
officers as we'll as Semeonov men were
implicated in such graft, with the re-
suit that several ofncers were cash.

their drive upon the Russians because
they felt they had accomplished their
purpose or because they were alarmed
at the irregularities is undisclosed.
