The clipping scrapbooks devoted to President Wilson's nomination of Brandeis to the U.S. Supreme Court in 1916 continue on reel 134. Reports of the confirmation hearings before the Senate judiciary subcommittee; Gilson Gardner's syndicated column of news notes from Washington during this period; two volumes of editorials drawn from newspapers from across the country; and finally reports of the confirmation on June 2, 1916, are found here. Also included are two letters from Dean Acheson, news reports of a possible Robert M.
