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

The War Today

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.
