OPPONENTS BALK IMMEDIATE VOTE OF (Continued from Pg One.) nnnnMmfmt lmmdlstlv from DemO fiHtln lonrlfin that thflv would not , nnw their demand for Immediate action tomorrow. No Ailvanre Notice. The nomination of Black, who has served In the senate more than a decade, was received by the senate with no advance notice, waaera naa planned to resume their battle over the pending antl-lyncning Dill. The nrealcent'a messenger arrived in a routine way at the senate door promptly at noon. Black, dreased In a white linen ault, occupied his usual seat In tlie center of the Democratic aide of the cham ber. A few of bis colleagues moved toward him to congratulate him, but the sllghtly-bullt Alabaman sat quiet ly at his desk, with no sign of ex citement In his face. The nomination lay on the vloe presldent's desk several minutes after It was received before there was any mention of It In debate, Ashurst then rose to ask that the nomination be presented to the sen ate as In executive session. JiihnMin Objects. Benator Johnson objected. Garner first ruled that the message coulc be laid down despite Johnson's ob jection, and the reading olcrk read. "I nominate Hugo L. Black " when Oamer Interrupted to reverse his rul ing and sustain Johnson's objection. Garner had already told the senate In reply to Ashurst's question that the nomination was one to the supreme court. Ashurst Insisted, however, on speaking on the subject. "It has boon an Immemorial cus tom of the senBte." toe said, "that whenever the president honors this body b7 nominating one of Its mem bers, the nomination Is confirmed without reference to committee." The reason for the custom, Ash urst said, was that "obviously" the committee could throw no new light on the nomination which the senate did not already know. He said Black was i lawyer oi "transcendent ability and great In dustrlousness, courteous In debate, young, vigorous and splendid In character and attainments.' He added : "I can not conceive of how the president could make a wiser selec tion than he has made. I hope ana believe the senate will appreciate the oompllment paid It by permit ting conaideratlon of the nomination at this time." Uurke Voices Views. At mi. nnmt Burke Interrupted from hla seat In the roar of the chamber. "Regardless of the custom," he aald, "there never has been an oc casion at all resembling the clrcum stancea of the present nomination to the supreme court of the United States. It should go to the commit tee for further study." "I don't agree with some of the philosophies of the senator from Alabama." Ashurst countered, 'or with some of the philosophies of the senator from Nebraska, but only a fool would question the patriotism or Integrity of either." Johnson added that In view oi the situation, which he said was fraught with danger to the country because of efforts to dominate the court, It waa of "paramount Import ance" that the nomination should go to committee. . Uwls Elnlcd. Commenting on Black's nomina tion. John L. Lewis, head of the Committee for Industrial OrRnnlaa tlon. said Black's waa "an admirable appointment; one that will be ap plauded by the nation." The burly leader added: "The CIO Is for him." William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, sala the appointment "Is both pleasing and aatlsfectory to labor." Opposition Immediately was ex-1 preened In other quarters. 8enator I Brldgea (R., N.H.I said he would! vote against confirmation. Repre-j sentatlve Cox ID., Oa.) a leader in house opposition to the Roosevelt j court bill and to Black's wage and hour bill, said: i "It le the worst Insult that has j yet been given the nation." j Attorney General dimming and j Solicitor General Strnley Reed hur- ; rledly conferred at the Justice de- j partment on what officials described as two IckhI problems: w. a ... w w ItXxJ I la r m,iui1K ":J-a v-.

Waa the Alabaman's nomination legal, they asked each other, in view of the fact that Black was a member of the senate when It ap proved legislation permitting su premo court Justice to retire at 70 with full pay?
