FRANKFURTER ATTENDS TVA HEARING AFTER INDUCTION

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

As he donned his robes of office, Felix Frankfurter, former Law School professor, started the final formalities that placed him on the Supreme Court bench Monday. He was inducted into office and sat in on his first hearing.

There was some quack opposition to President Roosevelt's appointment presented before the Senate judiciary subcommittee in the very beginning, but since then the approval of the committees and of the Senate have been given readily.
