Present: MR. CHIEF JUSTICE WARREN, MR. JUSTICE BLACK, MR. JUSTICE DOUGLAS, MR. JUSTICE CLARK, MR. JUSTICE HARLAN, MR. JUSTICE BRENNAN, MR. JUSTICE STEWART, MR. JUSTICE WHITE, and MR. JUSTICE FORTAS. THE CHIEF JUSTICE said: This being the final session of the 1966 Term which represents 18 years of service on the Court by MR. JusTICE CLARK, and because this is his last session with us, the Court believes that we should not adjourn without taking note of his departure. Under ordinary circumstances, I would say that we approach his retirement with great regret, but realizing the happy circumstances which bring about his retirement I can only say that we view his departure with mixed feelings. JUSTICE CLARK has had a great public career. He graduated from the Law School of the University of Texas in his native State in 1922, and practiced law, both publicly and privately, for 15 years, until he entered the Department of Justice as a Special Assistant in 1937. He rose rapidly in the ranks of the Department, and scaled the entire echelon until he finally became Attorney General of the United States in 1945. Having served with distinction, he was appointed to the Supreme Court by President Truman in 1949. For 18 years he has served with distinction on this Court. During those dynamic years he wrote many of the most important opinions of the times. |
