NEW AMERICAN JUDGE
OATH TAKEN SECRETLY POSITION MORE COMPLICATED NEW YORK, Sept. 16. , (Received Sept. 16, at 10.30 p.m.) The New York Times Washington correspondent says the problems regarding Senator Black, who has been appointed to the judicary, are more complicated than ever owing to the revelation that he secretly took the oath of an associate justice of the Supreme Court on August 19.

It is pointed out that the action is irregular but legal.
