Washington, Oct. 3.-The pow
er of the invisible government
which Felix Frankfurter's cult
set up within the government of
the U. S., after he had bold.
ly wangled his own appointment
to the Supreme Court is strong
ly suggested by information
which has been revealed this
summer.
1t has been known for years,
of course, that Frankfurter'
tricky Harvard law proteges
were spotted in influential
places in practically all of the
experimental radical bureaus of
the New Deal. -
There were % many of them
and they wre SO impudent and
flippant in tossing around the
rights and aspirations of the
American people that their exis-
tence as distinct clique or
corps was commonly appreciat-
ed. In those early days, General
Hugh johnson amiably referred
to them as Frankfurter's Happy
Hot Dogs. If he had lived, John
son probably would be less toll
Grant of their mischief today. He
was, first and last, patriot, al
though he had a juvenile streak
which moved him to go traipsing
after the Pied Piper who was 60
ing to cure everything by con-
quering fear and who flattered
him by slecting him to admins
ter the Fascist N. R. A. But nei-
ther did the rest of the people
nor even the sourest skeptics in
Washington quite appreciate the
sinister nature of Frankfurter
silent process of penetration.
We learned on authority early
this summer in the memoirs of
Harold Ickes that Frankfurter
did not wait for distinction to
come to him but went campaign
ing for job on the Supreme
Court in a time when political
and theological prejudices were
to be substituted more and more
for law. His reputation was syn
thetic and almost entirely the
result of publicity and posturing
on noisy issues.
Alger Hiss was one of Frank
furter's Happy Hot Dogs from
Harvard Law School. He is a
precocious study-boy with the
supersonic intellect who was too
precious to be left out in the
rain to catch cold in the war. He
rose to such power in the State
Department that when the dod-
dering and dying Roosevelt went
to Yalta in February, 1945, to

SOKOISKY
BY GEORGE. E. SOKOLSKY

Six factors enter into the accu
mutation of power: coal, iron
oil, aluminium, uranium man
power. Those who posses these
or who have ready access to
them possess political and eco
nomic power. The United States
is the greatest power because
as of this moment, she
possess the readiest access to
and utilization of coal, iron, oil
stores of bauxite are not great.)
The United States has the best
access to uranium Gin Canada.)
While her manpower is not E.
quail to that of Soviet Russia or
China,it is more mobile, more
facile, capable of greater pro-
ductivity.
The only country which can,
at this moment in history, chall
enge the United States is Soviet
Russia. Rich in coal, oil and
iron whit easy access to bauxite
and therefore an aluminium
potential - Soviet Russia ex-
ceeds the United States in man
power. 1t may be roughly esti-
mated that with her satellites
in Europe and Asia, Soviet Rus
STA now has a population of close
to $50, 900, 900. Should the Comm
unists take over China, this fig
ure would be stupendous.
1t is interesting that in 1899,
SO, 1000, 600 Soviet citizens lived in
Asia. As Robert -Hupe
says in his 1.-THE Balance of
Tomorrow:
1.-THE development of in
dustries in the shelter of the
Urals, beyond the reach of hos
tile Europeans powers, and the
Strengthening of the Asiatic Dor
der regions, have dominated the
strategic thinking of the Soviet
regime since its earliest days.
industrialization and mechanical
alton of agriculture in Russian
Asia set in motion mass migra
ton not only from the land to
the towns but also from den
sely settled rural regions of Rus
sian Europe. When the Red Ar
my fell back before the Ger
man invader, it shielded the with
drawal Of many of war-impor
tant industries. Whole plants,
together with their skilled per
sonnet, were moved to Asia. In
addition, millions of peoples up
rooted by the war, villagers with
their livestock, skilled workers,
Jews from the border regions,
and the forcibly evacuated Vol
ga Germans streamed east

The reactivation of the Roanoke Rapids Woman's
Club at todays meeting, is to us great step.
The women of Roanoke Rapids have much to
do and their task will be much easier if they do 1t as

It is interesting to note today's meeting in

the women of the city.
The fact that one of the projects mentioned as
coming up for discussion was the overall recreation
program, indicates that the women of the city Will
make and take fortnight and strong effort i'll
this direction.
The women are interested in our city, probably
more so than most of who are busy today try

We know that the Roanoke Rapids Woman's Club

For Hal Wallis

James Mason is making = deal

"House of Mist" to be made where
Mason hkes-New York. Canada,
England or even Hollywood. Mason
will play a jealous Chilean husband,
The lowering James should be hear
ing any day now the outcome Of his
lawsuit with producer David Rose.
Ida Lupino has temporarily
shelved her plan to marry Collier
Young. She says she wants more
time to think the matter over, and,
come June, Ida is going to Europe.
Gary Cooper stands to make
81 .000, 900 on his two-picture COM
mitment with Milton Sperling at
Warmers. Gary's deal calls for salary
and q percentage. He already has
$500, 900 from his "Cloak and Dag
ger" chore. Who said salaries are
coming down?
Dorothy MCGUIRE has rented her
Hollywood apartment and win leave
for Sweden April Is with her hus-
band. John Swope, Dorothy, as you
know, viii star In "The Dolls House"
to be made in Stockholm.
Greer Carson as movie meanie? ?
That's the idea of Sam Wood who
directed Greer in her first movie
hit. "Good-by Mr. Chips" Sam,
and I agree with him, believes that
Greer has overdone the utterly,
utterly charming type of screen
lady. Now she could use something
with more sauce to 1t. Anyway,
Sam is looking for story with a
heavy" angle for Greer.
Jennifer Jones has bought q lot
Of her trousseau forSher marriage to
David Selmick, silk lingerie, ETC., in
Paris. Now she Is on q shopping
spree with David In New York. I'm
wondering what she will do with

furniture, when she marries David.

sions.
MIR. KaTloff makes an ingratiat-
ing man of the fiery old professor
who defies his college superiors and
the majority Of his family in stub
bornly clinging to his job. Prof. Lin
den learned too much of man to
give up ON him as easily as his Of
spring do and Mr.. Karlof makes
him a teacher to remember.
He is hardly more of character,
however. than the family maid
played by Una O'Connor. She
shares the professors English
stubborness, and while life has been
shabby, she finds 1t worth fighting
for. She cuts the plays funniest
figure in the process.
The other Lindens are played
with skill by Barbara Everest. Viola
Keats, Cathleen Cordell, Marilyn
Erskine and Hallowell Hobbies, jr.
They are unable, however, to work
up much a display Of energy in
the dilapidated old study which
Peter Wolf designed for "The Lin

Evening star., 1948-02-24


trouble is that THE Linden Tree
is not much of play.
It's success in London, where 1t
Is now one Of the theater's hits, Is
neverthesless understandable. 1t is
a pep talk to o people who are TAX
ing wretchedness CALAMITY. They
merit words of encouragement. In
"The Linden Tree" Mr.. Priestley is
not above a lot of scolding. but ne
offers the hope of cheerful, if dis
tant, future. American audiences
will listen with attention and re-
spect, but probably not for long.
They will find THE Linden Tree"
most provocative in the entirely in
cidental aspect that it offers Boris
Karloff in a gentle role. And, to
their pleasant surprise, the man
they grew up to think of as mon
ster is actor enough to make them
love him. AS Prof. Linden, Kar-
loft is a sort of postwar Mr.. Chips.
He is a winning man to have around
and deserving of more concise and
lively play. The same observation
is to be made of several others in
the cast for, in turning producer,
Actor Maurice Evans has kept his
acting standards high.
The weaknesses of THE Linden
Tree" are Mr.. Priestley's, mainly his
indifference to being dramatic in a
form that is supposed to be so. He
takes his own good time to cover q
considerable social, political and
moral area He overlooks the fact
that this also takes the good time
Of theatergoers.
THE Linden Tree" is a gentle
play. Specifically, it relates the
plight of the Linden family. In.
ferentially, it is the story of al
English families engaged in blood.
less social revolution which Mr.
Priestly poinnts out, is being fought
for all mankind The manner Of his
saying it is quietly serious, although
not without its leayening Of wistful
humor. The author of THE Linden
Tree" is most kindly in his feeling
for the young and old whose pluck
and energy he admires. What anger
he has Is directed at the middle-age
group.
Hero OF the Lindens' battle for
survival Is Prof. Robert Linden who
