At the same time, he pictured
the national policy as one Of human

representing only a 10 or IS per
cent portion Of the total govern

size the water power, according to
the president, over other phases Of

was a deliberate move to becloud

BOSTON, Mass, Jan. 23.-Felix
Frankfurter, the newly confirmed
Associate Justice of the Supreme
Court, is a little man with a big
mind; one of the keenest minds in
the nation, many think.
He has spotted for high posts in
the Federal government such bright
young men as, James M. Lands,
Thomas Corcoran and Dean Ache
son. But friend says he has never
asked a job favor in behalf of any
one--that he knows how to put the
right man in the right job when
called on.
He and his wife, the former Mar
ion A. Denman, of Springfield, Mass.
have no children, but every week
groups of his brightest students have
gathered at their home to match
wits with him in long 'bull ses-
Sions"
Students either like him tremen-
dously or heartily dislike him. In
classes, he seems to be a student
who happens to know little more
than the rest Sometimes he turns
the lecture over to student, then
stands in the back of the room and
helps heckle.
A former student said OF him. @He
is always thinking He finds is very
difficult to relax. Many people like
to spend nice dull evening and
no evening with Professor Frank
furter is ever dull"
The new Justice is an omniverous
reader His walks with. friends are
his only exercise. He will take
cocktail, and he smokes moderately.
He aids hundreds of causes fin
ancially and is prodigal of his time
in helping friends.
Two other Justices who came from
Harvard Law School have been his
friends, the late Oliver Wendell
Holmes. and Louis d. Brandeis. His
views follow theirs in many respects.

Ginger Rogers and James
Stewart Seen in Viva
ious Lady" Capitol

A night-club entertainer accus-
toned to the gay and hectic life OF
Broadway, is suddenly catapulted
into the quiet dignity of a small coll
lege community where her presence
is unwelcome to the puritanical ma
tives. Such is the predicament
faced by Ginger Rogers who plays
the title role in RKO Radios ro-
mantle comedy. "Vivacious Lady, .
now playing at the Capitol Theatre.
The lively story revolves around
the unusual romance of vivacious
night-club beauty and a studious
botany instructor Games Stewart
which starts in New York, progresses
through whirlwind courtship and
is climaxed with marriage.
The couple return to the groom's
home town in upstate New York,
where he serves as professor in a
university presided over by his
father, a man of high ideals and
strict morale. Afraid to admit he is
married to the pretty singer, the
young pedagogue arranges with his
romantic wife that they live apart
until he can break the news gently
to his austere parent.
From this novel situation stems
the pictures hilarious action with
the groom's ex-fiancee, his prudish
father, an Intellectual mother and a
playboy cousin himself fond of the
secret bride, all contributing to the
mad series of events.

n new " INDUSTRY
BEING CREATED
in SOUTHLAND
Famous Sweet P ofdtoes
May Be Basis of Starch
Enterprise
BY PAUL SIMMONS
AP Feature Service Writer

LAUREL, Miss.-Before the in
,dustrial chemist went to work on
it, the chief claim to fame of the
southern sweet potato was as q
table delicacy.
The table varieties are just as
tasty as ever, but other kinds
those lower in sugar and higher in
starch content-give promise of a
new industry that may put a few
extra million dollars into the
pockets of farmers.
That hope is the manufacture of
sweet potato starch by a process
developed at cooperative plant
established here in 1884 by the
u. S. Bureau of Chemistry and
Soils with $4,000 of F'ERA funds.
Half Billion Tons Imported
Cotton mills, laundries and man.
ufacturers of glue, candy, food
products, adhesive and other ar
ticles in the United States use
several hundred million pounds of
starch each year. About 100000
600 pounds was imported for use
in 1897.
Chemists say domestic manufac-
ture of as much starch as is now
imported should provide valu-
able new southern industry if it
can be sold at profit.
The average cost of starch i'm
ported in 1937--largely from the
Dutch Indies in the form of tapi-
oca flour-was placed by the De-
partment of Commerce at approx
mately two cents a pound. The per
pound cost Of corn, white potato
and other domestically produced
starch, with which the sweet po-
tato starch is said to compare fa-
vorably in quality, was considerably
greater
Production Costs Slashed
Sweet potato starch cost Is cents
a pound to make the first year of
production but last year it was cut
to cents, and experts hope to drop
it even lower. e. Y 5
Since the starch turns to sugar
in stored sweet potatoes, the year.
lily operation of the unique starch
plant has been limited to a season
of 100 days. Pressing juice from
newly gathered potatoes and fur
Their dehydrating the shareholder
ing pulp by drying, however, is
expected to make possible year
round operation on the stored po-
tato pulp. Crushing and dehydrat-
ing stations would be set up in
potato growing communities for
receiving and preparing the pota-
toes for storage.
Need About 80 Plants
Engineers estimate that similar
plants can be erected for between
$75,OO0 and 100000 each. On
year round program, about 80
plants could produce starch now
imported
The local plant in 1888 paid
farmers an average of 80 cents
pushed for their potatoes, and
some farmers realized $3.50 an
acre. The average payment per
acre was $50. ~ s"s
One of the problems is the pro-
duction of a yielding potato
of high starch content. Much has
been done in this direction.
