George Gray, federal judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, has just been informed that his appointment will expire on October 11, 1906, and that President Roosevelt has expressed his hope that Gray will serve another six year term. Gray sends his sincere thanks, and he has written to the Department of State to express his willingness to serve. Gray thinks the Court is becoming one of the great defenders of peace and civilization.
