DEATH OF LIBRARIAN AND APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR. SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES. MONDAY, MARCH 3, 1947. Present: THE CHIEF JUSTICE, MR. JUSTICE BLACK, MR. JUSTICE REED, MR. JUSTICE FRANKFURTER, MR. JUSTICE DOUGLAS, MR. JUSTICE MURPHY, MR. JUSTICE JACKSON, MR. JUSTICE RUTLEDGE, and MR. JUSTICE BURTON. The CHIEF JUSTICE Said: It is my sad duty to announce that on February 22, during the recess of the Court, its Librarian, Mr. Oscar D. Clarke, died. Forty-seven years ago this month Mr. Clarke entered the service of this Court as an assistant in its Library and in 1915 he succeeded Mr. Frank K. Green as Librarian. In this post he followed in the footsteps of his father who had been the first Librarian of the Court. His long service, together with that formerly rendered by his father, indicates a traditional family devotion to loyal and efficient discharge of public duty. To every undertaking Mr. Clarke brought precise knowledge and broad experience in library science; he was courteous and helpful beyond the scope of prescribed duty. The severance of this long association brings to us a sense of deep sorrow for he had endeared himself to many Justices during the years of his close relationship with the Court. The Court records its appreciation of Mr. Clarke's high character and of the effective aid he long rendered to it and expresses its sincere sympathy to his widow and the members of his family. V On Monday, March 31, 1947, THE CHIEF JUSTICE announced the following Order of the Court: IT IS ORDERED by the Court that Miss Helen Newman be, and she is hereby, appointed Librarian of this Court in the place of Oscar D. Clarke, deceased. The oaths of office were administered to Miss Newman on the same day. TABLE OF CASES REPORTED A. B. Dick Co., Marr v.. Ackley v. New York....
