mittee will be appointed tomorrow
to study legal questions raised by
the recess appointment of Justice
Edward A. Tamm. former FBI Of
hcial, to District Court. it was an
nounced last night by Lowry N. Coe,
president of the association.
Justice Tamm was appointed by
President Truman. but the appoint
ment failed to reach the Senate
floor for confirmation before Cong
ress adjourned. After Congress
ended, Justice Tamm was sworn in
on a recess appointment but will
have to await final action by the
next session of Congress.
The associations directors adopted
resolution Friday to name the
committee and instruct its Judicial
Selection Committee to continue to
oppose Justice Tamm's confirm
alton.
At the time of his appointment
the association voted overwhelm-
ingly against Justice Tamm's con-
firmation.
- Senate Judiciary subcommittee
held extended hearings on the NOM
instion and he was approved by a
split vote, but the full committee
failed to report it to the Senate in
the closing days of the recent ses-
sion.
Washington lawyers opposed JUS
tice Tamm on the ground he has
never practiced law.
He was one Of the top assistants
to FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover.
