...consider whether or not sufficient evidence had been introduced at the trial to justify a conviction. In Massachusetts that apparently remains a question to be determined solely by the discretion of the trial judge, which the appellate tribunal is not at liberty to correct. Mr. Frankfurter has nothing to say about the interesting ruling of the Supreme Court that it is permissible to question a man about unconventional and unpopular political opinions that he may hold in order to test for the jury his credibility as a witness in his own behalf when he is on trial for murder...
