Tardy tax-sellers, brokers said,
accounted for much of the activity
and offerings for income statements

investment demand, especially for a
few blue chips" served to cushion
liquidation. Numerous stocks were

The lack of jubilation in financial

the fact the turnover in stocks for

Veterans Of Foreign Wars, of Bla-

flag to the Bladensburg Elementary
School at ceremonies at the school
grounds yesterday afternoon.
Mrs. Justine Zyvoloski, patriotic
instructor of the auxiliary, made
the presentation at the school build
ing. Jimmy Pettigrew, first grade
pupil. accepted the flag for the
school.
Following a program by the pu-
pills, lag-raising ceremonies were
held in the school yard. Walter

The retirement" Of Justice Bran

really amounts to the same thing.
The idea that justices who retired
may still be called to active service
on the Circuit Courts of Appeals or
the District Courts keeps them
within the protection of the Con-
stitution as against a sudden re-
duction in pension. That's why all
justices are careful to use the word

touch" She has white hair, mouth
that curves upward pleasantly, and
melting brown eyes, filled with a
human kindness, that her record
exemplifles. 1t is we'll known in
Los Angeles that appeals to Mrs,
Stewart never went unnoticed. Her
name was synonymous with help
and encouragement. Her pocket
book was always emptied by the
needy.
Obviously veteran appeals cannot
be met with the same open handed
ness. There are laws governing
the boards decisions, which cover
every type of case, fill volumes,
and change each year.
Current controversial cases ham
died annually are approximately
10000. These are appeals by vet
Grams OF all wars, and peace time
soldiers.
Veteran problems are a cross
section of all American problems
from every sort of disease to every
economic problem" Mrs. Stewart
says.
The board, she says, often spends
days ironing out the pros and cons
OF controversial cases. They split
up into sections of three to expedite
decisions. They are aided by so
consultants, who sift the mass of
data, and render their decisions to
the board for rejection or accep-
tance. Only the final decision of
the board means cash in hand to
veterans.
A dyedin-the-wool Democrat,
which party Mrs. Stewart believes

hard for woman's suffrage in 1910,
was one of the first women elected
a delegate from California to the
Democratic Convention in 1912, and
worked with Mrs. Roosevelt in the

two years prior to her appointment
here In 1885, she was Los Angeles
civil service commissioner. She is

the Supreme Court was universal
regret that Associate Justice Louis
D. Brandeis had submitted a re-
quest for retirement. In his % years
OF service on the bench, Mr.. Justice
Brandeis has won the high regard
of the American people. Yet when
he was first nominated for place
on the Supreme bench by the late
President Woodrow Wilson, a tre-
mendous howl went up. He was
pictured as q dangerous radical, as
unethical in some of his legal deal
ings and he was the first Jew ap-
pointed to the highest court. After
extended hearings before the Judici-
ary Committee, the Senate finally
confirmed Justice Brandeis' appoint
ment.
Justice Brandeis' retirement
under the Summers Act put through
in 1887, permitting justices of the
Supreme Court to retire on full pay
after having reached the age of 70
years and having served 10 years
on the bench-was, of course, &C
quiesced in by the President, al
though he expressed regret that the
veteran liberal should have deter
mined to retire at this time. It
removes from the bench one of the
liberal group which now constitutes
q majority Of the highest court.
And 1t seems unlikely that Mr..
Roosevelt will pick q conservative
to f1ll the vacancy. The liberal
group was composed of Justices
Brandeis. Stone, Black, Reed and
Frankfurter. Chief Justice Hughes,
who through all his public career has
been regarded as conservative, fire.
quently has been found voting with
the liberals during his service on the
bench, and sometimes so has Asso-
ciate Justice Roberts. Justices But
ler and McReynolds, however, have
been regarded as dyed-in-the- wool
conservatives, to whom any New
Deal legislation has been anathema
West Cries for Place.
The West has clamored for a
place on the Supreme Court ever
since the retirements Of Justices
Sutherland of Utah and Van De-
vanter Of wyoming. The President,
however, selected first Justice Black
Of Alabama. then Justice Reed Of
Kentucky and finally Justice Frank
furter Of Massachusetts, to I'LL the
three vacancies which hitherto have
occurred.
The President could smooth
ruined feelings in the Senate today
by sending in the name Of Judge
Sam G. Bratton of New Mexico
now member of the United States
Circuit Court Of Appeals. Judge
Bratton Is former member of
the Senate, a Democrat highly re-
garded by his colleagues. Recent
and pending rows over some of the
Presidents judicial appointments
have caused a decided rift between
the White House and the Senate.
Bratton has had strong backing
but at the time the President was
trying to force through his court
bill, Bratton was reported to have
looked askance ut tho court packing
plan.
Another Western possibility is
Justice Harold B. Stephens of the
Court Of Appeals Of the District OF
Columbia-who hailed originally
from Utah. Justice stephsns was
believed TO have a good chance for
