THE MANCHESTER GUARDIAN. THURSDAY, NOVE Ft 14, 1935 SENT.BY A READER BOOKS OF THE DAY AT THE GRINDSTONE "HIGH-WATER MARK OF CONTRADICTION" Magistrates' Ruling A MUSIOLOVER'S CHRYSLER SHARES CASE Legal Arguments on the Judgment: a Stay of Execution GRANTED UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS Mr. Justice Atkinson I have no hesitation in doing that. Mr. H.

J. Wellington, K.C. (for the defendants), said it would be almost impertinent for him to attempt to vary the order. He asked, however, that the defendants should have the costs of the issues on which the defendants had Newcastle-under-Lyme. MISCELLANY less, -beginningleas, endless, topless, bottomless, topsiturviest, tuneless, scran-nelpipiest tongs and boniest doggrel of sound I ever endured the deadlines- of, that eternity of nothing was the deadliest, as far as its sound went.

And it is no further back than 18S2 since that was written by one of England's most cultured men a music-lover, too, who has left us penetrating remarks about the composers he understood. Thinking on such a matter, what 'critic, professional or amateur, can tail to pause awnile before penning his next indictment of contemporary artl Jothinc in Mr. Blom's miscellanv is more gratifying than the magnificent hhiiho tmm P.l bitt" in which the hero, being convinced that orchestral music is needed in his native town, says to his ienow-counciiiors want, to come out flat-footed and ask you boys to O.K. a proposition of a Symphony Orchestra for Zenith." After an eloquent address on the advertisement value of. Culture this high-minded townsman ends nobly with I call on you good brothers to whoop it up for Culture and a World-beating Symphony Orchestra." Some of us would, perhaps, have liked a snippet or two from Mark Twain was he not particularly bright ion Wagnerian opera 1 and Dickens could.

add a few more gems to those shown here. By the way, the passage quoted in this book about Tom Pinch and the organ is not as good as an earlier one about Tom's playing on the organ in Salisbury Cathedral. But with such capital entertainment to hand, as Mr. Blom has provided it is ungracious even to hint at omissions. One must say again that one cannot sufficiently express admiration of the abilities for research that have brought together a mass of the most varied materials which are given orderly arrangement under appropriate headings.

G. A. H. Criticism must somehow explore that path and discover why it has been taken. To tell a poet to turn round and to be reasonable is ultimately as unavailing as Canute's alleged instructions to the waves.

net. Buka Passage, a narrow strip of troubled water, lies between Buka Island and the north coast of Bougainville, most northerly of the savage Solomons." Only a few years ago these islands had an ill repute for murder and cannibalism among -traders and planters and it says much for Miss Blackwood's courage and devotion to research, even in present-day conditions, that she spent over twelve months alone in -a native village collecting the material upon which this account of a Melan-esian society is based. Miss Blackwood's investigations were undertaken under the auspices of the Committee for Research on Problems of Sex of the National Research Council, Washington, D.C. After beginning her inquiries on an island off Buka; she moved to the opposite coast of Bougainville, where the inhabitants, owing to the unsuitability of the land for plantations, were less affected by contact with Europeans. The rule of- the mandated territory of New Guinea rests lightly upon them, except for the all-important reserva- After giving judgment lasting one and a half days in the Chrysler shares case, Mr.

Justice Atkinson had the matter before him again in thee King's Bench Division yesterday for the decision of technical matters arising out ot the judgment. He had awarded 36,000, with interest, to the Suffolk Investment Company, in respect of conspiracy. Another award was for 3,500 to Mr. Arnold de la Peer, in inspect of loss of remuneration as managing director of Chrysler Motors, Ltd. Both these sums carried interest at five per cent from March, 1928 Judgment has been given for these sums against Mr.

W. P. Chrysler, Mr. B. E.

Hutchinson, Mr. J. E. Fields, and Mr. S.

D. Briggs, and the Chrysler Cor poration, of which they were officers The action concerned the forced sal of Mr. de la Poer'a shares, the result, i'. was, said, of conspiracy, threats, and misrepresentations. The defendants were Mr Walter P.

Chrvsler, Mr. Joseph E. Fields, Mr. Bernard E. Hutchinson, and Mr.

Stephen D. Briags; Chrysler Motois, of Tfow tht. Chrvsler Exnort Corporation. of Detroit; the Chrysler Corporation, of Detroit; and the Societe Anonyuie Chrysler, of Antwerp. They denied all the allegations.

QUESTION OF MALICE Before counsel began their arguments, Mr. Justice Atkinson observed that he omitted on the previous day to read a paragraph on the issue of mali-e that Thp Jndirn went on: I intended to say that 1 had no doubt Briggs was actuated by personal malice. I cannot get away from the many untrue things he wrote about the plaintiff (Mr. de la Poer) or from his constant urging i 1 oliminatinn fn t.tlD other hand. I am not satisfied that Mr.

VI UlUmilU CLlluuiauun. Chrysler was actuated by personal malice. 1 think there is no evidence to jusuiy mv findinc that he was." Mr. Gilbert Beyfus, K.C. (for the plaintiffs) then asked Mr.

Justice Atkinson to enter judgment, adopting a proviso which was added to the judgment in the Austin case (concerning a sun. shine roof patent) that any sum recovered under any judgment shall be taken to be in satisfaction pro tanto of the liability under other judgments. Subject to that proviso, he asked for judgment for 36,000, with interest at 5 per cent trom niarcn and costs acainst Messrs. Chrvsler. Hutchinson Fields, and Briggs, the Chrysler Corporation, and the Export Corporation, which denuded itself of its assets one of the features ol the conspiracy.

He also asked for judgment for 20,183, with interest at 5 per cent and costs, against Messrs. Hutchinson and Fields and the Chrysler Corporation, for fraudulent misrepresentation, and for judgment for 12.700 with interest at 6 ner cent aeainst. the Chrysler Corporation for breach of warranty under the agreement of February, 1928, plaintiffs would have received interest at 6 per cent. Finally, he asked for iudement. for the plaintiffs for 12.700 with interest, at ft per cent from January 1, 1928 for con- spiracy against tne unrysier Corporation.

the named defendant's, Chrysler LTw XJlIXlllLGUL 1 1 W111U11 lgg, Chrysler, Hutchinson, and Fields were directors and were obviously, said Mr. Beyfus, parties to the manipulation of accounts), and against the Soci-te Anonyme, which actually received 10,000 in respect of central-office expenses, which was one of the features of the manipulation. That last sum was for damages against the defendants for conducting the English business in a way which would be a breach of warranty and also a fraud, having regard to the representation's made bv Hutchinson and Fields in February, 1928. Mr. Beyfus also asked for judgment for Mr.

de la Poer for 3,500 with interest at 5 per cent from March, 1928, and costs, aeainst the four named defendants the Chrysler Corporation, and the Export Corporation. CASE FIT FOR THREE COUNSEL Mr. Beyfus later said he did not press for judgment against the Export Corporation. He asked the judge to certify that it was a case fit for three counsel." Mr. Justice Atkinson said he did not think tnev had succeeded on any issue anywhere The costs had not been increased bv one farthiue bv the addition of certain defendants against whom judg ment was not to be entered, xney were properly before the court and he would not award them any costs.

The Judge then gave the four judgments as asked for by Mr. Beyfus with the suggested proviso. The proviso meant, he explained, that the plaintiffs would not be entitled to recover1 more than the 36,000 in all. Mr. Wallmcton asked for a stay- and offered to make a payment into court.

air. Ueytus said tne judgment given would be about 55,000 (damages and interest) and with the costs would amount to 80,000. The case had lasted 64 days, Mr. Beyfus added. "It has imposed' an almost intolerable financial burden on my clients The Judce had awarded 20.000 with 8,000 interest on the basis of misrepresentations which were admitted.

The Court of Appeal would not reverse, the fin din as of fact and, indeed, the plaintiffs could rely there solely on the admissions as supporting the findings. "THE LONGER PURSE" Mr. Beyfus recalled that as late -as July, 1934.. a- message" was sent to Mr. de la Poer through a Mrs.

Barber that he was wrong-headed to go on with the action because. the Chrysler Corporation had by far the longer purse. In my submission," said Mr. Beyfus, appeal is merely a continuation of the policy of the longer purse. A minimum of 20,000 should be paid to the plaintiffs.

If that done, he would not mine fa stay regarding the 60,000. A stay was a favour, and if the defendants wanted one they should give ample security entorceabie, in tins country to pay tne costs of tne appeal. Air. Justice Atkinson said the whole case turned on issues of fact. He did not want any indulgence he granted now.

to be regarded as an indication that he had any doubt in his mind. Mr. tseyfus: 1 have no faith whatever in these defendants, and I am afraid lest they might attempt to do in this caso what they did in February, 1928. 1 Counsel referred to a letter sent by the plaintiffs' solicitors to defendant solici tors on the previous night. That letter referred to terms on wlucn a stay ot execution would not be opposed.

Air. rJeyfus suggested that there should be an undertaking not to charge or part with the assets of Chrysler Motors, except in the ordinary course 'of business. Mr. Wallington: I think what Mr. Beyfus has just said is perfectly monstrous.

I am prepared to give that Mr. -Justice Atkinson: not.think it V- Wallington then oubmitted that Mr. laPqer could -not recover anything like 20,000. and defendants would certainly not be willing to pav the Suffol'c Investment Company anything at- a'l. They were a' Canadian company and the defendants, in certain events, might have no chance of recovering anything from them.

Defendants were nreDared to- pay to plaintiffs' solicitors' 20,000 on account of costs. STAY OF EXECUTION In the result Mr. Justice Atkinson (on the defendants' undertaking referred to granted a stay of execution for seven days, on defendants paying to Mr. de" la Poer 2,000, and paying to the plaintiffs' solicitors- 18,000 qn account of costs. Those payments would be on the usual undertakings.

Defendants must bring the balance, of the judgment into court, or sive security to the' satisfaction of a master, and, if security was given to the satisfaction' of a master to the extent of 20,000 in respect of the costs of the appeal, the stay would be continued.

By David Daiches.

Edinburgh: Oliver and. Boyd. Pp. 80. 3s.

6d. net. Even if we are not living in an age of great poetry we are certainly living in an age of ample poetic criticism. Much of it is concerned with the problem, which Coleridge let loose, of the place of meaning in poetry. Mr.

Mousman said in Cambridge that poetry was meaningless and Mr. Eliot has said in the United States and else-nhere that is only, like a piece meat given by the' burglar to the dog, something to keep the intellect quiet so that poetry may do its work. Sow Mr. Daiches, who seems to be an Edinburgh Scot writing from Bailiol, reasserts that meaning is an integral par.t of language and that as language is the medium of poetry, so meaning must be an essential element in poetry. In many ways Mr.

Daichcs is a disciple of Mr. John Sparrow, who a short while ago went out armed with Johnsonian common sense to do-havoc amonjr'-the hordes. Mr, Daiches 'is eminently logical and clear-headed, but one sometimes doubts whether he is adequately sympathetic to the dilemma in which manv modern poets, find themselves. Mr. Eliot, for instance, is obviously a poet if judged only from pieces which will conform with Mr.

Daiches's rules. 3ut Mr. Eliot has often found that he can' only proceed along a path that cuts him oft from the past and from the requirements that Mr. Daiches's implies. Christmas jHtarts Ths latttt dot of for Christmas dalivwy.

As a gift friend at for your of pleasure 1 Price Copies of MessrssWi principal THE CRITICISED BY LORD HEWART A decision of four magistrates sitting at Acton was criticised by Lord Hewart a King's Bench Divisional Court yesterday. He was sitting with Justices Goddard and Singleton, and the Court allowed an appeal by a factory inspecto. against a decision of the magistrates it favour of a company in a prosecution under the Factories and Workshops Ac The inspector had alleged that the company had not fenced the end of a revolving shaft which projected into a polishing room in theii factory. The clothing of a lad working in that room became entangled in the shaft, and he died from the iniuries he received. The magistrates dismissed the information which charged the company with not lencmg the snatt or naving it such a position that it was equally as safe as if it were fenced." It is difficult to speak with suitable moderation about a case which contains facts of this sort said Lord Hewart.

It is really shocking. The justices found that they were bound to decide that this lad came by his death because, when he had been told to clean out a room, his clothes became entangled with a shafting which projected into the room, and was revolving at 150 revolutions a minute. It was not covered or boxed. The section provides that dangerous parts of machinery must be securely fenced, or be in such a position, or of such construction, as to be equally as safe as it would have been had it been fenced. They have found that this rapidly revolving shaft was not covered or fenced.

It is difficult 'to speak with patiencs about a 1 frame of mmd which permits itself at one and the same time to entertain propositions (1) That this dangerous part of the machinery was securely fenced; (2)' that it was not securely fenced, and (3) that it was in such a position, and of such construction, as to be as equally safe as if it were fenced that is to say, that it was equally safe fenced or unfenced. Of all the many cases under this Act with which I have had to deal in the past fourteen or fifteen years this particular case reaches the high-water mark of contradiction." Dealing with another appeal under the Act, which concerned the decision of justices sitting at Romford, Lord Hewart remarked The waste of public time and money caused by wrong decisions of lay justices under this section of the statute is such that the time is approaching when steps may have to be taken to see that cases of this nature are always tried by magistrates with legal training." MILK BOARD'S METHODS Criticised by Judge "Why do the Milk Marketing Board object to a case being tried in the farmer's own district 'asked Judge Sir Alfred lobin at Westminster County Court yesterday when the Board claimed 10 from Mr. H. H. Clayton, Little Nook Farm, Lancaster.

Mr. Clayton put in Hpfpnne that he wa3 not a reeistered producer until January last, and that the Board had already sued someone else and j.ii..ea luaguieub iu uiu auiuuub, Mr. Phillimore (for the Board): I do object to transferring the action now, Decause wnen it was Drougni nere a ion-night ago (Mr. Clayton asked the Board to meet him with a view to a settlement.

Judge Tobin: The Milk Marketing Board would et on so much (better if they tried to conciliate people instead of putting their backs up. A man says, 1 do not want to go to London," and why should he? Why cannot the matter be tried his own Mr. Phillimore said that they had agreed to an adjournment on the understanding that the case would be dealt with in London. Mr. Clayton: No: I was asking for it to be tried in Lancaster.

They wanted me to pay the 10 and I said, No." Mr. i'niliimore asked for costs thrown away if the case were remitted. Judge Tobin: No. The only way is for the judge who tries the case to deal with the whole of the costs. The case will be remitted to Lancaster.

SPINDLES BILL Who is Right Mr. Baldwin or Mr. Fleming? The attention of Mr. W. M.

Wiggins, president of the Federation of Master Cotton Spinners' Associations, was drawn yesterday to the statement made by Mr. E. L. Fleming, Conservative candidate for the Withington Division, at meeting in Burnage on Tuesday night to the effect that he was opposed to the Spindles Bill promoted by the federation and did not think' it would be heard of The federation," he said, is still relying upon the promise made by Mr. Baldwin.

In the matter of her special inquiry, sexual life and relations among the people, 'Miss Blackwood has wisely taken the broadest possible view! of its implications. She has not confined her attention to love, courtship, and marriage in -their various aspects, regular and irregular, but she has given in very full detail an account of the social and cultural environment in which they function.

She finds the Melanesians here, whatever they may be in other areas, very much like ourselves. For though sex is taken as a matter of course and certain things are mentioned "Openly over which we draw a veil, reticences are observed even among women concerning themselves, and as between the sexes what is regarded as obscene is strongly barred. Many distinguished anthropologists have made Melanesia their hunting-ground but Miss Blackwood's careful observation and lucid exposition give her no cause to fear comparison. E. N.

F. DEBATE BY LETTER Science and the Supernatural. London: Eyre and Spottiswoode. Pp. vi.

412. 10s. 6d. net. "Science and the Supernatural" consists of a long and lively series of letters interchanged by Mr.

Arnold Lunn and Professor J. B. S. Haldane. The letters.

we're intended for publica tion and their declared object was to exhibit Christian and anti-Christian faith at grips with one another. Mr. Lunn is a- member of the Roman Catholic Church Mr. Haidane is a declared believer in evolution. One might have expected a statement by each of the essentials of his creed, Countered by criticism from the other.

But in fact each, leaves the initiative to his opponent. Mr. Lunn is almost wholly occupied in arguing that the case for evolution is a bad one. but he is occasionally diverted by enterprising sallies from the other camp into discussing miracles, transubstantiation, the Catholic view of celibacy, or the Thomist proofs of God's existence. Though Mr.

Lunn says that most Catholic scientists are convinced evpiur tionists, he thinks, for some unexplained reason, that atheism could not survive the refutation of evolution. In another place he speaks of this long discussion of evolution as a discussion of tho physical arguments for the existence of God." What the physical arguments are is not clear. Can Mr. Lunn really suppose that the failure of a particular scientific hypothesis, if made out, constitutes a proof of God's existence And as to whether it has failed or not. the scientist must surely be allowed to know his own business best.

The ulterior motive which Mr. Lunn avows for wishing to 'discredit evolution weakens his case with the and will be judged further by most reaaers to rest on a total misapprehension. J. L. S.
