Here is a cold crack for a politically appointed judge from thc New York 'l‘inics;"‘1\1r, justice Reed did not participate in the Supreme Court decision in which sections of the Holding Com- pany Act of i935 were sustained. His reason for not doing so was that he had signed perfunctory briefs in the case, while serving as Solicitor Gen- eral. Mr. justice Black participated in the decis- ion, however, despite thc fact that as a member of the Senatehe had attacked holding companies as “rattlesnakes" and urged their destruction as networks of chicauery, deceit, fraud and graft. We do not question Mr, justice Black's decision to join with the majority opinion in this instance. If his past record and his past associations caused ,him to draw any such ﬁne line as distinguished Mr. Justice Reed's determination, there would be very few cases involving fundamental human “rights upon which he could pus.”
