Hughes favored joining the [[League of Nations]], and convened the [[Washington Conference]] in 1921 to disarm the major countries.  He was a "moderate" Republican like Republicans from the northeast today, and was not as conservative as President Harding.  As Chief Justice, Hughes opposed President [[Franklin Delano Roosevelt]]'s [[court-packing]] plan, but relented to the New Deal and upheld some of it.
