"We are about to draw aside the
curtain on as tragic and sordid a

never before has come under my

ley socially, frequently sending her
flowers and visiting at her home
with Mrs. Hughel, Mr.. Nolan said,
charging this was done after the

of attorney over her funds.
On trial in what Mr.. Nolan has
termed a million dollar" fraud are

The Cabinet
by GEN. HUGH S. JOHNSON

NTASHINGTON, Nov At is idle to guess what
w might have happened if old Tom Walsh had
lived 10 be attorney general but it is not at all hard
to that the litigation of the New Deal is in a
sorry tange.
Atty. Gen. Cummings is loyalst-a great Demo-
crat, greater friend and a with an unbem-
ished record. But, because political circumstances
prevented him, or because he did not fight hard
enough to overcome them, his stanchest friend
could never contend that he organized prepared and
manned the Department of Justice for the bitterest
battle of litigation which confronted any Ad-
ministration.
For him, it must be said that his department
had precious little to do with drafting the legisla-
ton he was later called upon to defend Also much
of it emergency stuff that had to be defended
after the shadow Of impending dissolution was light
ened.
Does anybody suppose that in the wave of ma
tional enthusiasm which it then foated. NRA
would have been sunk if it had come up for decision
in october, 1888? Its litigation deliberately de-
ferred by somebody, somewhere. and that was its
ruin
THE prize of the fiscal decisions was no golden
apple-rather scorpion with the sting of
terrible rebuke in its tail
NRA finally was taken up in a impossible to
win and on an argument which failed properly to
present the laundering Constitutional issues it raised
When it went down. there no statutory reserves
to rush into the breach-only attack on the
Constitution and the court.
The record of litigation is bad. The addition of
Stanley Reed is strengthening but the prospect in
litigation is no better than its past
There those who fear that all this is deep
strategy 20 procure - by poor defense many
decisions against the constutionality of liberal laws
as to create a campaign issue of the very Consti-
tuition itself The obvious Administration policy Of
litigation is bad enough on the surface but If this
is what lies underneath, 1t is a catastrophe.
There too many able, liberal, Democrats
lawyers to speculate on what might have been.

Today Science
by DAVID DIETZ-

TWO HUNDRED years of theorizing upon the
- origin of the earth have brought astronomers to
the conclusion that they have theory adequate TO
explain it.
This fact is set forth by DR.. Henry Norris Russell
OF Princeton University, the dean of American
astronomers in newly published book, THE Solar
System and Its Origin"
The reader might wonder why any one should set
about to write book whose chief conclusion is a
confession of ignorance. DR. Russell is himself con-
scous OF the fact and expresses the hope that the
reader may find more than that in it.
an that score he need have no fears. For the
" book is a vertable gold mine of information
concerning the present day position of the astrono-
mer with regard to the solar system
The book based upon the series of lectures which
Dr. Russell gave last year at the University of Vir-
GINA under the Page Barbour Foundation is divided
into three sections. Part is The Dynamical Prop
critics OF the System" This is concerned with the
organization of the solar system
In Part III Prof. Russell discusses the physical
and chemical properties of the plants and comets.
The last third is devoted TO theories of the origin
OF the system Beginning with the theories of Swe-
denborg, Kant. and Laplace Prof Russell traces the
development down through the modern theories of
Chamberlin and Moulton and Of Jeffreys and Jeans.

1.-THE reaction here is that of
Woodworking, thrifty, patriotic
people against the things they
think are unsound, beginning with
the attack on the Constitution and
ending with the extravagances of
lief.
This turn against Roosevelt in
New England is not a partisan
turn. We are not merely turning
Republican. The old Republican
Party is as much a thing of the
past in New England as the old
Democratic Party is, let us say, in
Ohio.
What is going on is reaction
against the policies and principles
which are part of the New Deal
and the too flippant way in which
official Washington is thumbing
its nose at some of the things that
New England thinks are funda-
mental"
WE are not for Hoover or
w Hoover policies-nor are
we for Borah. Perhaps Col Knox
best expresses what New England
has in mind when it thinks Of a
Republican candidate. If
Roosevelt ran today he could not
carry a single New England

happens"
Maybe it's all bit bewildering.
Certainly it is not easy to weigh
accurately the hundreds of reac-
tions I have recorded throughout
industrial America.

clearly: despite an unquestioned
swing against Roosevelt I see

"And you can believe me that
