FDR Selects New Justices : Stone Will Succeed . Hughes ; Jackson, ' : . Byrnes Nominated (Continued from Page 1) then will be Stone, appointed Originally by President Coolidge, and Associate Justice Owen J. Roberts, who wu named by Pres- ident Hoover. Roberta has voted aometimea one way and some times the other on questions In volving the constitutionality of new deal legislation. : ; Consequently, for many years to mom, It is expected to be a eomrt almost aaanlmeosly dis posed to apply the aew deal theory ef eonstltatlonal Inter pretation, ' From this point or ' view, the court's personnel will be vastly ' different from that which prevailed la 1935 and 1936 when the Eoosevelt social - and economic legislation came bp for review. , The strict constructionists led by Associate Justices McReynolds, Van Devanter. Sutherland and Butler, and frequently augmented by Chief Justice Hughes or Asso ciate Justice Roberts, or both, were in command. One new deal enactment after . another was tossed aside as un f constitutional. Soon after the 1936 election. President Roosevelt pro- t posed his bill to add one new jus 1 tice to the court for each justice j past 70 who did not retire. A ; monumental eontrove rsy fol ; lowed." The president lost in con ' gress, but won W a new attitude ! which , the court adopted in the i middle of the controversy. .

' j Throughout th bitter conflict. Stone, now. to become chief jus tice, voted frequently that the new i deal laws were constitutional. j From his. friends, however, came1 : word that he, a" republican, did j not believe necessarily in the wis i dora of the laws -involved.- When the court Invalidated the ' agricultural adjustment . act, he ! aaid , that "while' unconstitutional ' exercise of power by the execu i tive and legislative branches of the government Is subject to ju dicial restraints, the only check ; upon out own exercise of power is our own sense of self-restraint" 1 The way was opened for Thurs j iday's appointments by the recent I retirement. of Chief Justice Hughes !v and 'the retirement last February i of Associate Justice McReynolds. ;?The president first of all named ' Stone to - the Hughes . vacancy. J Then, he appointed Jackson to the ; chair technically vacated by Stone i and Byrnes to fill McReynolds' '; place. ;": V i Nazis' Doom (Continued from Page 1) ' after the peace for "economic and social security."
