WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 7, 1925, MEMBER ASSOCIATED PRESS - - : ' J Mmt MBMRKH A88OCIATBD PRESS NUMBER 77 ' I V i Daily Letter (By HARRY B. HUNT) WASHINGTON" (NKA Special) When Associate Justice Joseph McKenna of the United States su preme court resigns his Heat on Unit high bench, us he Is under stood to be about to do, hi will have set a record as the most re- signed gentleman In high official , circles. t Back In the early 'SUs, after a couple of terms as prosecuting uttorney of Hnlund county, Cali fornia, and a brief period in the California legislature McKenna was elected to congress. in the midst of his fourth term he was offered appointment, by President Harrison, us United States circuit Judge. Whereupon he resigned as member of congress and mounted the bench. When McKlnlcy was elected president, he spotted McKenna as llkejy cabinet material and ten dered him the post of attorney general. So McKenna resigned the judgeship and entered the cabinet. Within a year, however, Justice Field having retired from the supremo bench, the little lawyer from the west was picked for the vacant scat, and so resigned his cuhlnctshlp. That was 27 years ago. Since then he has served continuously on the supreme bench, being now In point of service the oldest mem ber of the court. Justice Holmes, who Is two years older, is three years younger iu service on the bench. - Physically frail and now In his 82d year, McKenna has decided to resign once more, this time retir ing to the quiet of private life for the few years that perhaps remain to him. - The scrapplngest member of tho supreme court, however Is its oldest member Oliver Wendell Holmes. Justice Holme, son of the' Oliver Wendell who helped make Boston the American literary cen ter of the mid-19th century, is In his 84th year. And although rumor . also has attached itself to . him a about ready to resign the seat he has held for 22 years, it is now con sidered certain he will outlast Mc Kenna on the court.
