OLD FEUD REVIVED
BY NOMINATION
Frankfurter for Massachu-
SettS Supreme Court Has
Picturesque Background
Special Dispatch to The Star.

BOSTON, July 4 (N.A.N.A0.-One Of
those issues that swiftly and deeply di-
vides a community arose in Massachu-
sets with the nomination by Gov Ely
of Prof Felix Frankfurter of Harvard
Law School faculty to the State Su-
preme Court. The nomination recog-
nizes one of the most brilliant members
of brilliant group of Harvard liberals.
Massachusetts, grand old jurist, Oliver
Wendell Holmes, lifted his voice, not
only to urge the appointment, but to ap-
peal for it after strident objection had
been made.
The objection to Frankfurter is much
the same and from the same quarter as
the objection to Louis D. Brandeis OF
Boston, whom President Wilson ap-
pointed to the United States Supreme
Court FrankfurterS accession to the
State Court would have the same strong
liberalizing influence as Brandeis' had
upon the Federal Court.
Mooney Case Recalled.
But the bitterness that marks the
issue has a more rooted partisanship In
the community than the merely capi-
talist influence that opposed Brandeis'
Frankfurter has been partisan in two
of the most flaming criminal controYer-
sizes of his times. He was the investi-
gator for President Wilson into the Tom
Mooney case in 1917, which resulted IN
the extraordinary effort of the Presi-
dent to have the Governor of California
intervene in behalf of Mooney.
Moro rppp0f1V and lnrallv Frankfurt
ter took issue in the Sacco- Vanzetti
case. Frankfurter was never convinced
of the guilt of the two radicals, who
were executed five years ago for muir
der committed seven years earlier. His
powerful presentation of the case against
the verdict, in an article, kept many
others unconvinced. Alvin T. Fuller
then Governor, who had finally to de-
eide on the death sentence, is still a
power in Massachusetts, politics, and he
was quick on the trigger with a violent
objection to Frankfurter's confirmation
for a judgeship.
Poison Of Case Spread.
Many have been amazed to find how
virulently the poison of that case has
continued to spread. On the one side
it may have kept Fuller twice from the
vice presidency. On the other side II
may now keep one of the admittedly
most talented legal minds of the State
Supreme Court roster, although Justice
Holmes protests: "I think 1t is a great
mistake to attempt to affect the ques-
tion by the attitude of the candidate on
particular case"
Incidentally, Frankfurter's appoint
! ment calls attention again to the quite
surprising liberality that is concen-
trated in the midst of conservative In
fuences in Harvard College, and most
markedly in the Law School.

CHICAGO, July 4.-Mrs. Franklin D.
Roosevelt yesterday consigned outworn
social tradition to the limbo her hus-
band created for a. fiction Of politics.
Somebody asked the niece Of ST. R.,
% years married to her sixth cousin,
the Democratic nominee, whether the
drawing room duties Of the first lady
would absorb her completely If her hus-
band were elected.
II can't imagine It," she replied
There are some several traditions
which are good, but there are others. E.
well, tradition ought to be kept while
it means something, but otherwise. why
keep it?"
She views her position as a candi-
dates wife, like carrying the party
standard "at a time ike this" as "a
solemn performance"
Tall and slender, with the etched
Roosevelt features and strikingly alert
blue eye, she wore a black silk suit
with a fine grey diamond design. a
blue-and-white blouse and simple hat
Her smile was wide and somewhat rare
Her face was innocent of any aid to
beauty.
She was asked whether she was
"superlatively" happy at her husbands
nomination.

Foreign Appointments.

MEXICO CITY, July (P).-It was
announced last night that Senate Com
mittee on Foreign Relations had re-
fused to ratify President Ortiz Rubio's
selection of Alfonso Castellot as Min

CHICAGO, July A. Senator Walsh
of Massachusetts,, State that clung
stanchly to Alfred E. Smith in the
fight over he presidential nomination,
issued statement last night calling
upon the Massachusetts, Democrats to
support Franklin D. Roosevelt.
'I had earnestly hoped that Alfred
E. Smith, courageous leader Of our
party in 1923. might be chosen to lead
us to the Democratic victory which is
ahead" he said.
Had the Chicago convention nomi-
mated him he would have been the next
President of the United States, and a
great President-the man Of all men
the country stands most in need Of in
this critical hour.
Followers Are Disappointed.
"It is grievous disappointment to
the Democracy of Massachusetts, and
to Al Smiths devoted followers every
where that the fates have decreed
otherwise, and that the majority of
the delegates in this convention were
committed to another candidate.
Gov. Roosevelt is now the nominee
of our party. He has subscribed unre-
servedly to party platform which is
clear ana explicit ana IN the main an
enunciation of the principles for which
Al Smith and those who stand with
him have consistently fought.
Pleased With Platform.
Most Of all, we have cause for re-
joicing that the Democratic party at
this convention has at last given its
unqualified pledge to repeal of the
eighteenth amendment, and pending re-
peal to liberalize the Volstead act.
That declaration Is a landmark in
our party history. 1t is an epoch
making decision, which In Importance
and effect far transcends any questions
of men and of candidates.
THE Democratic party is my party
because its principles of government
are my principles. My influence will b>
fully exerted to assure a Democratic
victory in the coming election"

Agree With Part of Plank.
''The platform plank on the eight
eenth amendment adopted by the Re-
publican party convention declares for
obedience TO and enforcement of the
law and the preservation of gains ad-
mittedly accomplished under the eight
zenith amendment. It declares against
notification, n-observance, referen-
dums without constitutional sanction,
the submission of mere repeal amend
ment and any backward STEP The
plank declares that prohibition has been
and is non-partisan question. 1t does
not pledge nominees or members of the
party to follow any specific course, de-
clareS against the evils inherent in
the liquor traffic and pledges the party
| and its nominees to enforcement.
With that portion of the plank we
heartily agree.
The plank further declares that
congress should submit a substitute
amendment which would give the peo-
pie an opportunity to decide whether
they VIII retain the eighteenth amend
ment unchanged or adopt a substitute
permitting the several States to legalize
the sale Of intoxicants as their citizens
may determine, subject to the power
| OF the Federal Government to protect
lnose states where prohibition exists
| ana TO safeguard citizens everywhere
from the return of the saloon and its
attendant evils
To this portion of the plank we are
opposed, as we are to the submission of
any repeal or weakening modification
OF the amendment. This plank, how
ever, does not declare any party pref
erence as between the eighteenth
amendment and the substitute pro-
posed, but leaves that to be determined
