...struggles to remain in command in this splintering world are given boisterous expression by Travis B. Linn; and Jacques C. Feuillan almost completely captures the poignancy inherent in the kindly Chaplain's humor, the humor of a man who thinks rather little but feels "a good deal," to whom legal matters are Greek "except, of course, that I understand Greek." And pillow-stuffed Julius Novick as Justice Tappercoom is witty and partly wise, eager for order but nonetheless good-humored...
...officials of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts were at first amused, then bewildered, and then annoyed. The Boston newspapers have headlined the story, and made Vautier into some sort of Thoreauesque hero. Yet he has no valid legal stand. The non-resident income tax law is not new, or is it unique.

He flunks out, though, and forces his son (cleanly played by Marsh McCall) to matriculate in his stead. The son assimilates his course in Unethical Practices so well that he commits assault and battery upon his father without fear...
