5000 Doqwood Trees

Plans for planting 5000 towering
dowgwood trees in Potomac Park
were approved today by Public
Works Administrator Harold Ickes.
He authorized an allotment of
100000 to the National Park Service
for the work.
Supt. c. Marshall Finnan of the
National Capital Parks said the
trees would create a place of rare
beauty here and would attract
countless visitors. Both white and
pink varieties of dogwood will be
used, with pink predominating.
The plan also includes relandscap-
ing of the District of Columbia
World War Memorial in Potomac
Park in such way that the flower
ing dogwoods will provide a setting
OF unusual beauty for it.
Mr.. Finnan said trees up to u
feet in height will be used. Actual
work of setting them out will be
undertaken during the present year.

BY JOHN C. HENRY.

Appointment of Prof. Felix Frank
furter as justice of the Supreme
Court was approved this afternoon
by Senate judiciary subcommit-
tee.
With all members present except
Senator McCarran, Democrat, of
Nevada, eight votes were cast unani-
mously for the nominee in a brief
executive session following a crowd
ed and dramatic open hearing this
morning. Appearing at that time,
the Harvard University scholar
offered to the committee the full
record of his life as a measure of
his fitness for a place on the court.
In dignified manner he told them
he felt it needed no supplemental
ton.
The recommendation of the sub
committee that the nomination be
confirmed will be laid before the full
Judiciary Committee on Monday,
with speedy approval expected there
and later on the Senate floor.
Prof. Frankfurter and his counsel,
Dean G. Acheson, lunched with Sub
committee Chairman Nicely of West
Virginia and Judiciary Chairman
Ashurst of Arizona after the sub
committee had voted.
In addition to Senators Neely and
McCarran, the subcommittee in
cluded Senators King of Utah, Con-
nally of Texas and Hughes of Della
ware, Democrats; Borah of Idaho,
Austin of Vermont and Danaher of
Connecticut, Republicans, and Nor
ris of Nebraska, independent.
Attacked by witnesses during the
past few days because of his identi-
fication with liberal thought and
causes, the slight Harvard professor
offered the record of his life in
answer to questioning by Senator
McCarran.
II do not think you have ever
taken an oath to support the Con-
stitution with less reservations than
have or would now" he told Sen
ator McCarran, nor do I believe
you are more attached to the theo-
ries and practices of Americanism
than am.
You will have to decide in the
light of my whole life what devo-

of his government" he said, but
did not enter into written contracts
for the purchase of planes with
in the time specified. Negotiations

| Mrs. Roosevelt
Clarifies Remarks
On Party Crashing

In an interview with a Star
reporter today Mrs. Roosevelt
made it clear that her inquiries
into the facts relating to the
call at the White House last
New Year eve by two high
school students who obtained
her own and the Presidents
autograph had convinced her
that The Star knew nothing of
the incident until it was re-
ported to The Star by the STU
dents themselves.
Mrs. Roosevelt said that she
had not intended to convey the
impression at her press confer
ence last Thursday that The
Star knew OF the incident in
advance. but apparently her
comments were misconstrued.
In further explanation of her
original comment Mrs. Roose-
welt said that she was still mys-
titled over how the young peo-
pie had obtained an apparent
familiarity with that part of
the White House which is not
open to the public.

covery.
