FRED M. VINSON
As Secretary of the Treasury, the future Chief Justice sends his autograph.
Typed Note signed: "Fred M. Vinson" as The Secretary of the Treasury, 5½x4¼ The Secretary of the Treasury card. Washington, D.C., 1946 May 22. To Mr. Harris, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In full: "It gives me great pleasure to add my autograph to your collection. Sincerely," Frederick M. Vinson, a former U. S. Representative from Kentucky (1925-1929, 1931-1937), U.S. Circuit Court Judge (1937-1943) and Secretary of the Treasury (1945-1946), was appointed Chief Justice by President Truman in 1946, serving until his death in 1953. During his term, the Supreme Court rendered important civil liberty decisions. It ruled that the non-Communist statement required by the Taft-Hartley Act did not violate the Constitution (1950), that a speaker who displays "a clear and present danger" of incitement to riot can be arrested (1951) and that segregation is barred in interstate railway travel (1952). Fine condition.
