Frankfurter influence in U S politics and court power
A critique of Frankfurter’s political reach describes him shaping U S policy through appointive and ideological allies. The piece cites his networks in the War and State Departments, his influence over figures like Henry L. Stimson and Harold Ickes, and alleged covert manipulation of wartime governance. It argues his prominence as a judge and advisor to Roosevelt crossed lines, raising ethical questions about governance and legitimacy.

Draft plans signal first batch by October and age issues
Selective Service Director Lewis Hershey told a closed Senate Armed Services briefing that the first draft batch could be processed by October 15 with a second call unlikely before January. He noted pressure to draft year-olds first, while the services favored 24 and 25-year-olds, but age priority was later settled. He estimated 9,000,000 youths were available, but only 1,386,000 would be eligible under deferment rules, with most eligible under 22.
