Supreme Scoop
To the Washington photographic studios of Harris & Ewing one morning last month went nine Negro messengers bearing long black robes, nine dignified gentlemen in long black cars. The occasion was the annual official portrait of the U. S. Supreme Court. Released last week (see cut), it was a photographic scoop for Harris & Ewing, which has taken all the official Court pictures since Charles Evans Hughes became Chief Justice in 1930. Harris & Ewing's dignified Chief Photographer William Whipple Campbell is opposed to enlarging the Supreme Court because nine men make a better picture.
