Ben Hecht, who did not find litera-
ture lucrative enough went to Holly
wood with his knowledge Of Chicago
gangsterism and the booze-racket, to
contribute this share towards the
elevation of the screen drama. He
learned in Hollywood, if he hadn't
learned before, that what one forgets
is often worth more than what one
remembers. So this picture of the
Chicago underworld forgets lot.
There isn't even suggestion of po-
lice dishonesty. no breadth of polit-

The New Playwrights Theatre will
begin it's second season tonight, at
their new home, 40 Commerce Street.
The play to be presented will be
"The Belt" first play by Paul
Sifton.
Preparations for this and succeed
ing productions have been under way
for months with all of the play
wright directors elbow deep in quite
unliterary work. For the first offer
irg, John Dos Passos designed the
settings, En- 10 Basshe arranged the
complex sound effects, while Michael
Gold, Francis Edwards Paragon and
John Howard Lawson have been
wrestling with numberless routine
business problems. Here is the
spectacle of five playwrights desert
ing their script to concentrate on a
season of new American dramas, and
selecting for their springboard pro-
duction, rugged, native, industrial
play.
Gail De Hart Lawrence Bolton,
Jane Barry and Ross Matthews head
the cast of '"The Belt" with a sup
porting cast of about forty, includ-
ing Franchot Tone, George N. Price,
Lionel Ferrend, Ellen Worse, June

By II. NJ. WICKS.

MIR. NORMAN HAPGOOD, one of
IVA the eminences of American liber-
alism, in the October 10 issue of The
Nation, expresses the opinion that it
was better for Supreme Court JUS
tees Oliver Wendell Holmes and
Louis D. Brandeis to permit the
Massachusetts executioners to shat
ter with bolts of lightning the bodies
of Sacco and Vanzetti than to violate
that metaphysical entity, known as
the ethical code Of the judiciary.
This remarkable contribution to
liberalism was evoked because a num-
Der of readers of ''The Nation" took
Mr.. Hapgood to task for an article
he wrote eulogizing these two judi
cial lacbeys as friends of humanity.
1t seems that some of the followers
of the liberal humanitarians could
not reconcile Hapgood's eulogiums
with the refusal of Holmes and Bran
deis to stop the hand of the execu-
TONERS while the supreme court re-
viewed the frame-up against Sacco
and Vanzetti, and Indignantly wrote
"The Nation" to that effect. The let
ters were turned over to Hapgood and
he wrote his astonishing letter in
reply.
Liberalism consistently ignores the
class character of the state. 1t is
welded to the illusion that the gov
eminent is something that stands, in
its impartial majesty, above the class
struggle. Rather than intervene and
by such action admit that the convic-
ton Of Sacco and Vanzetti was an act
of class vengeance, Holmes and Bran
deis; true to the traditions of liberal
ism, hid behind the flimsy device of
some vague ethical principle"
On August %, 1927, few hours
before he went to the electric chair
to join labor's host of martyrs, Bar
tolomeo Vanzetti sent a letter to
Prof. Henry w. L. Dana, properly
stigmatizing the inaction of Holmes
and Brandeis:
Judge Holmes repealed our APP
peal on the ground that the state
supreme court had passed on the
case and he does not want to in
wade the state court ground
Yesterday, Justice Brandeis re-
PEELED our appeal on the ground of
personal reasons; to wit, because
he or members of his family are
| favorably interested in our case, as
demonstrated by the fact that after
our arrest Rosa and her children
went to live for a month in an
empty house of Justice Brandeis,
in Dedham, Mass.
These two justices are the SYM
bols of liberalism in the federal
supreme court and they turned us
( their shoulders"
MIR. HAPGOOD, from his self-con-
AVA stituted promontory, views with
disdain the criticism of the two su-
preme court justices and defends
their liberalism. Speaking of Bran

deis' refusal to act, Hapgood declare
that he was prevented by persona
disqualification"
He has always acted on the
principal that he would not sit in
a case where he had any personal
interest. He kept out of a mini
mum wage case because one of his
daughters had been working on a
minimum wage board. He looked
upon himself as disqualified in the
Sacco-Vanzetti case because his
family had been actively interested
in getting the men off"
This observation is followed by al
exhibition of the most loathsome so
phistry--a piece of vicious, murder
Gus special pleading that has neve
been excelled even by the most opel
and servile apologist for reaction
Hapgood asserts that the people whC
wrote the letters to "The Nation" arr
not lawyers and adds:
"They do not understand that if
Justice Holmes or Justice Brandeis
would have been justified in eX-
ceeding his powers in order to ac-
complish one result, then Judge
Thayer was justified in abusing his
opportunities, as he did, in order to
send Sacco and Vanzetti to the
chair because he happened to think
them guilty. President Lowell
would then be justified in his in
accurate and personal use of the
record to reach result he wished
to reach. 1t is a poor way to get
ahead, to meet one judicial lynch
ing by a state by clamoring for an
other kind of judicial usurpation.
The two greatest judges in Amer
lea would not be the men they are
if their conception Of their powers
and duties changed because their
personal sympathies were in
volved."
NORMAN HAPGOOD and all tn
~ liberals in the world may try t
apologize for the attitude of the tw
radical supreme court judges, bu
the working class will refuse to re
spect his fine ethical consideration
that decree that if Holmes and Bran

JUDGE STONES MOOSE
 EXCELLED BY MANY

In order to correct a statement made
 recently when it was said Judge Clyde E. Stone, recent hunter to the Vest Ward, having his moose with a span of 60 inches was the largest talk en in years, it must be admitted at this time that the wonderful moose specimens of number of sporusmen who have been out with the Alaska Glacier Tours Association this year excell that of the Judge. These in clude the SO inch spread of Thomas Eastman, of New York; Colomon Jo- nan of Denver, 62 inches; Capt. Wm. H. Fawcett, 63 and one-half inches and Dr. H. c. Harper, of Newcastle, Pa., 63 and one-half inches.
 Last year, hunting under the ausp- ices of the same company, Major H. F. Evans of Davenport, Iowa, bagged one with a spread of 73 and one-half inches.
 All records were smashed this year though when B. F. Greer, of San Fran cisco, came out with one measuring "A and one-quarter inches. It is report ed by guides in the employ of the com ,pany that this latter specimen was the largest in a period of at least 10 years. Tn fact it is said it is doubtful if any larger have ever been shot.
 Aside from these records there are yet a number to be turned in for the season is not yet over.
