Memorandum signed: Harlan F Stone" as Attorney General,
1p, 8x10½. Washington, D.C., 1924 September 19. "Memorandum for Mr.
Rochester" on official letterhead. In full: "With reference to the
attached letter from the Republican National Committee, did you send the
statement about the Veterans' Bureau over to Mr. Gordon?" Stone
(1872-1946) had decreased corruption in the Justice Department while serving
as United States Attorney General (1924-1925). As an Associate Justice of the
Supreme Court (1925-1941), he served under both William H. Taft and Charles
Evans Hughes. Although a Republican appointee, Stone had often supported
Franklin Roosevelt's "New Deal" legislation during Roosevelt's first term, when
many such measures were being declared unconstitutional by the Court's majority.
FDR nominated him for Chief Justice in 1941, and he filled that role until
his death. Lightly soiled. Paperclip impression in upper left. Otherwise,
fine condition.
