Show CONFIRMATION OF -PDEIS MED Vote Will Be Taken Next Thursday; Four Republicans Republi-cans to Support Nominee. WASHINGTON, May 26. Victory for the administration in its fight to make Louis D. Brandeis an associate justice of tho supreme court was assured as-sured tonight when the senate agreed to vote on the nomination next Thursday, Thurs-day, June 1. Republican senators who have been opposed to Brandeis conceded tonight that he would be confirmed beyond question; that he would receive practically practi-cally unanimous Democratic support and in addition would get at least four Republican votes. This would give approximately ap-proximately sixty votes in favor of confirmation, con-firmation, leaving only thirty-six opposing op-posing votes, should every senator be present. |
