Smoldering over the decision, because farmers would have to hand over $700,000 in contested fees to some 50 Kansas City commission men, the Secretary burned up for fair over the Hughes speech. He had already written a letter to the Chief Justice, last week reiterated it in a public statement recalling the way the Court had dealt with the same case in 1936: Remanded it to a lower court, for other reasons, remarking that for Government agencies to give interested parties advance notice of their proceedings was "desirable but not essential."

Sullivan's biography does not bring to light any new material about Newton, and he draws freely on other biographers. But Sullivan was fascinated by the human being which harbored such a magnificent mind, and from the available material he tried to draw, with fair success, a clearer picture of the 17th Century's greatest scientist as a person...
