and public interests Brandeis recog-
nized that the contending lawyers
were usually Unmatched" 1t was
then he assumed the mantle Of pub
lie defender.
Three years later, in 1916, when
President Wilson provoked another
acrimonious eruption by nominat-
ing Brandeis for the Supreme
Court, this dual" practice came
back to haunt him. The American
Bar Association led other groups in
protesting the appointee as unfit,
particular stress being laid on his
shift from defender to prosecutor
of the tying clause" by which the
United Shoe Machinery Co. sought
to prevent the use of competitors
shoe-making machinery. Nearly
five months had elapsed after the
nomination before Brandeis was
confirmed by the Senate.
BY Different Paths.
Justice Brandeis came to the court
when the conservatives were in con-
troll, but found there a kindred
spirit in Oliver Wendell Holmes,
despite the latter's distaste for
social reformers-a category in
which he was rather too much in
clined to include Brandeis."
Even as these two strove for more
nberalized Interpretation Of the
Constitution in their classic dis
sents, however, they moved by diff
ferent paths, the biographer recalls,
stressing that they were no SIAM
ese twin liberals"
Holmes was q liberal primarily
in the sense that he enforced (as
he himself said whatever. constitu-
tional laws Congress or anybody else
sees fit to pass-and do it in good
faith to the best of my ability
. For Holmes the power factor
that is, legislative majorities-
was usually decisive" His un-
wavering protest was against cases
decided upon an economic theory"
Brandeis, to the contrary. was
inclined by the pressure and drives
of his own nature to translate his
own economic and social views into
the Constitution.
The political aspects of Justice
Brandeis' career which found his
catholicity of taste embracing Taft,
the elder La Toilette and Hoover,
as we'll as Wilson, at various times,
and his deep interest in Zionism
are other phases of this free mans

defiance OF the wishes Of both
families. While the Catholics re-
ceive less attention, since this is
a novel about Jews, Mr.. Asch
makes it clear that they, too,
have brought their old world
hates into the new world with
them.
He also gives some space to the
Jewish radicals, those who hope
to better the condition OF the
workers by social reform They,
too, turn back to the land OF their
persecution, he observes They
fix their eyes on Russia and
dream of social revolution in
free America in Russian terms.
While they decry the practice OF
their money-making kinsmen OF
exploiting factory hands, they
themselves exploit the liberty OF
their new land to plot contrarily
to it. In short, political freedom
and the hope of attaining wealth

1t is difficult to think of Louis
Dembitz Brandeis in a role other than
that of jurist, but it is another Bran
deis, the crusader and reformer, VINO
dominates these pages. The net
product Is q controversial and COM
plex figure.
"Brandeis deserves to be saved
from his friends as well as his foes,
saws the biographer. Both blur his
sharp reality. He has been seen as
a mental genius, q crafty Luciier,
an inspired humanitarian.
Neither liberal nor conservative
found him altogether acceptable
. . .. No single formula can ex-
plain him because he had no Oh
jectiye in life in the sense OF q set
goal to be reached. Nevertheless'
he knew where he was headed. he
did not drift with wind and TIDE.
This sense of direction at least,
was early in evidence. From the
outset of his law practice, Brandeis
sought financial independence SO
that 'he might champion without
fear or favor whatever causes ne
might consider right and proper"
AT the age of "a, his income was
$50 900 annually. At SO, thanks to
a lucrative corporation practice. he
was a millionaire, although by that
time he had stirred so much enmity
by warning on monied interests that
Woodrow Wilson found it advisable
to drop him from consideration Tor

Commerce in his first cabinet.
As Public Defender.
In explanation of this paradox,
the author says that "as long as 1t
was a matter of defending one cor
poration against another, where the
LAWYERS were reasonably well
matched, he was content to practice
law in the conventional manner,
confident that the judge or jury
may ordinarily be trusted to make
such a decision as justice demands.
But when corporation had
achieved power to crush competition,
to hold labor. the consumer, and the
public helpless in its grip. a very
different question presents itself.
In such conflicts between private

the Maine country people, though
occasionally Mr.. Coffin goes afield
as far as Vermont or even Virginia
and there is one broadly funny tale
about the Russia Of the Empress
Catharine. How the two old maid
sisters got coated with SCOT unaware
so that each thought that the other
was a. witch; how the father and
son, rivals in strength, rowed all
day in opposite directions in the
same boat; how poor Mr.. Burns,
with gay ideas in his head, tried for
year to escape his stern wife and
spend day in town-with such
themes as these Mr.. Coffin makes
his volume rock rhythmically along.
If 1t isn't distinguished verse it is
sound American folklore of the liv-
ing tradition. That is to say, it is
about such characters as are always
with US if one has Mr.. Coff1n's wit
to see and understand them.

mentS.
The application of this old device
is made in terms of an earthquake
which catches a crowd of wealthy
vacationers in the act of exploring
a cave. The cave entrance is
blocked and the trapped people
have no way of knowing whether
there are any survivors left outside
to rescue them. A gangster, his
girl and his bodyguard, great
composer, a phony Russian prince,
rich old woman, d famous scien-
tist, a movie magnate, young
actress, a battered prizefighter and
q doctor who has been poisoning
his wife-these are some of the cast.
They all reach q state of semihys-
terra in their captivity and, accord
ing to their lights, promise to lead
better lives If they are saved. Then
when salvation comes they divide
into the weak and the strong, those
who resume the old existence and
those who stand by their VOWS. That
is all there is to the story.

phatic. He shouts. Seems to think

ing. it is obvious that he believes
that there is significance for Our
particular present in that particu-
lar bit of Europe's past.
But the significance, he points out.
lies in imponderables rather than in
apparent political similarities, the
imponderables generally taking the
form of personalities. In that sense,
Gar Alexander was the great i'm
ponderable of Vienna. He was a
schizophrenic, divided between one
vision of himself as a conquering
potentate and another as a messiah
of primitive Christianity. The re-
suit of this picturesque division was
areintroduction into European poll
tics of the interminable Polish ques-
ton. The Polish question in turn
begot the question of a united Ger
many.
The Congress, which was temper
ate in mood, was forced to cope with
these two problems through COM
promise. The compromise held the
peace for so years but, out Of Alex
ander's responsibility came 1914
at last and out of 1914 came 1945.
We are still embarrassed by a Polish
question and a prospect Of united
Germany. And peace is still a mere
hope with U.S. And there are still
those human "imponderables" on the
diplomatic horizon.
Mr.. Nicholson reviews the Con-
gress' proceedings issue by issue and
principle by principle. The strug-
giles to harmonic its various
drives on the various issues makes

a quarrel-on the deck OF the

Strengthened out.
The theme of the story seems to
be that cod fishing by dories is a
brutal way of life and that many
noble spirits are crushed by its
rigors. The trouble of the fighting
brothers is that they are not fisher
men by temperament, but intellec-
tuals, men of the study who have
inherited tradition unfit for them.
The survivor of the pair decides
that he will make it his life work
to introduce trawling in place of
dory fishing and so raise the level
of the fisherman's life, trawling
being easier and safer. On this
note of radiant promise the book
comes to an end.

Side. For the most part Jney are
engaged in the garment trade,
Exploitation is the rule of the
community. Employers sweat
workers and landlords rob ten
ants. Greed, says Mr.. Asch, is
the rule of life for the Jew new
come to America from Europe.
Then, as his story develops, he
poses the question why" His
answer is that the Jews have
brought with them the age-old
fear of poverty. In Europe, where
there was hopelessness, they re-
signed themselves and took what
comfort they could in spiritual
life. In America where they, for
the first time, saw hope, they
flung themselves on the hope
with frenzied concentration:
They abandoned the spiritual
values which had sustained them
in the old country and they
never so much as considered that
America had her own spiritual
tradition to offer them.
Contained in their crowded
sections of New York, they were
more than Indifferent toward
America as a whole and Amer
ica's meaning in the world. They
did not even learn to know their
city. They learned only the few
blocks where they worked and
they made these blocks seethe
with imported European hates
and prejudices. For with greed,
Mr.. Asch couples the charge OF
blind intolerance.
Deepest Prejudice.
He is frank, even eloquent,
about the loathing which the
Jew holds for the Christian, a
loathing which, as he describes
it, surpasses any other kind OF
prejudice which we have in this
country unless it be that OF the
psychopathic Southerner for the
Negro. This feeling, too, comes
from Europe. as he points out.
The New York Jews accepted the
fact that our country, from its
founding, made no distinction
between Jew and gentle, but
they did not act in accordance
with the acceptance, other than
to seize the economic opportun-
tiles before them. They kept all
their old world emotions.
To be sure, Mr.. Asch also in
diets Christians of recent Euro
pean descent. His story centers
around the marriage of Jewish
boy and a Catholic girl made in

us a few months in the life of a
precocious little girl and into those
