H . .11 MALLON WASHINGTON, July IS The impression is established among congressmen from what they hear inside that the Byrnes-Vinson- Jones regime is largely a front w for an invisible cabinet which really plans the domestic econ-j omy. Mr. Roosevelt's espousal of the subsidy plan has been at tributed, for instance, to this cabinet The congressmen have heard of a meeting at the Whit House, attended by the leading executive officials of the administration, at which administration policy on this subject was to be determined. The nominal leaders, the men whose names are in the newspapers every day were not strong for White House espousal of the subsidy doctrine. The president sided against them however, and in favor of a quintet of officials whose names seldom reach the public eye. These five, now frequently referred to as The Quiz Kids," included Harry Hopkins, Ben Cohen, Judge Rosenman, Edward. Pritchard and Richard Gilbert. .' . To establish further the omnipotence of this invisible five, a democratic leader in congress confided to his associates that Ben Cohen (who is Mr. Byrnes' legal advisor) wrote the first draft of FDR's veto of the commodity credit bill and its anti-subsidy provision. There to even mora direct evidence. The neat industry, including livestock men, drew up a plan which its leaders believed would help solve the situation. Among other things, they wanted government purchase of 40 to 45 per cent of all meat as a mean of stabilizing prices and keeping them down. They first received the approval of Chester packers did not want it ' The consumers did not want it. But the invisible cabinet thought it was a good Idea and they seem to know year in and year out what the president will always take. Marvin Jones Betting nETTING here is that Food Administrator V Marvin Jones will not last any longer than his predecessor, Chester Davis. Most officials - give him a few months. The change of Davis for Jones, for Instance, brought no chance in the position of Pritchard, who was special as sistant to both. The only change here that would make any real difference now or hereafter would be in the invisible cabinet There is no likelihood of that before Mr. Roosevelt himself changes m is cnangea. The War Today By DeWTTT MacKENZIE INCREASED axis resistance is reported from Sicily today but the incubation of the allied invasion has proceeded far enough so that we can do no harm by counting that chicken and looking about for other fields to conquer.

Invisible Cabinet Set-Up years. Mr. Cohen's was in NRA, Hopkins in WPA,1 and Rosenman at the president's elbow in the earliest stages of the New Deal. Pritchard is only another name for Felix Frankfurter, inasmuch as he was a former aeeretary to th supreme court justice and a representative of that school of thought Gil bert, special assistant to OPA's Prentiss Brown, is one of the old Henderson crowd, a New ork lawyer who dabbled in economics. Apparently, whenever the Knudsons and Nel Mns are dropped or sidetracked in favor of th Byrnes and Vinsons, it only means a change of the figures in the show window, whereas the window dressers always remain the same. , Th president no doubt feels they represent What he wants in the way of economics with th piquant flavoring of reform politics. In this instance, of course, the subsidy was backed among all the pressure groups of po litical and economic influence only by the CIO. The farmers did not want it The On the debit side we should find the task of providing a nation of 45,000,000 with large quantities of food, clothing and even fuel since the country imports most of its coaL That would be a bit of a Job, what with the whole world calling for the necessities of life.
