l nave paia tribute many
times to Frank Murphy when
he was living, but it seems
difficult to write about him
now that he is dead. One rea- ,
son is that it is hard to realize
that he is gone. A lot of peo
Dle will miss Frank Murphy.
His family will miss him. His
liberal friends on the supreme
court will miss him. But most
of all, the little people of the
world will miss him.
Shorty after Frank was ap
pointed to the surpreme court,
he took me into his study in
the Washington hotel. and
pointed to a stack of law
books.
"That's where I spend my
evenings," he said. 'The
newspapers say that I'm no
lawyer. They make fun of
my legal ability. But they're
going to be disappointed.
And you're going to be
proud of my opinions," he
continued.
There was something of the
boy in Frank Murphy—to the
very end. He loved praise,
hated criticism, and was al
ways a ilttle worried as to
what kind of supreme court
justice he would be. He should
n’t have been, for I am sure
that some of Frank’s dissents
will stand up—as he so ardent
ly hoped—alongside the ring
ing defenses of freedom writt- |
en by Holmes. More import
ant, Frank Murphy will al
ways be known as one of our
great champions of the com- |
mon man.
Murphy became attorney
general in January, 1939, and
immediately launched the big
gest political cleanup this!
country has ever seen. U. S. i
Judge Martin T. Manton, of
the second circuit court i n
New York, had been getting
away with graft for years.
Many people knew this, but
other attorneys general had
let it pass.
In Louisiana, this column
had exposed shocking graft by
the old Huey Long gang.
Frank Murphy took the col
umns, with supporting affidav
its, called a grand jury, flew
to New Orleans himself, and
in record time convicted Gov.
Richard Leche, the Democra
tic national committeeman, the
head of the WPA, the presi
dent of the state university,
and several others.
In Missouri, the newspap
ers had talked about the
graft of the Pendergast ma
chine, but Washington paid
no attention. But, under
Frank Murphy, a tough dis
trict attorney—Maurice Mill
igan of Kansas City — got
justice department support,
and Tom Pendergast ended
up behind the bars.
ramie vuy agamsr our doss
Nuckv Johnson, and started
to move against Boss Hague
in Jersey City and Mayor
Kelly in Chicago. The latter
two were democrats.
• • A
Kicked Upstairs
It was widely rumored when
Frank Murphy retired as at
torney general to join the sur
preme court that he was "kick
ed upstairs” in order to pro
tect the Democratic bosses. I
have a personal reason for be
lieving this was true.
However, it should also be
noted that with the death of
Justice Pierce Butler, a Cath
olic, in November, 1939, Roos
evelt wanted a Catholic to
take his place. Likewise, it
was true that FDR’s fair-hair
ed boy, Robert H. Jackson,
was being groomed for the
presidency, and the White
House wanted the justice de
partment spotlight to play on
him.
I am convinced, however,
that the first factor—calling
Murphy off the heels of the
big-city bosses—was the most
important. And here is my
reason for thinking so.
By this time—early in 1940
—most of the Louisiana scan
dals had been cleaned up. and
a grand jury was considering
the indictment of Mayor Rob
ert Maestri of New Orleans on
a hot oil charge. Suddenly,
Chief Prosecutor O. John Rog
ge was called out of the jury
room to answer the telephone
from Washington. Returning
to the jury room, he suspended
the grand jury proceedings.
Learning of this mysteri
us move, II went to Frank
Murphy and asked for an
explanation. Murphy told
the truth. Mayor Maestri
was not to be indicted, he
said. He had received orders
from the White House.
That was 1940—a presidential
year. In order to get the nom
ination, FDR needed the sup
port of the big-city bosses, and
in Louisiana the only man,who
could deliver the delegation
was Mayor Maestri.
