At around the same time, he befriended Siegfried Kracauer, the Frankfurter Zeitung ’ s literary editor, of whom he would later write:

In Barnette Justice Jackson addressed each element of Frankfurter ’ s Gobitis decision.

Jackson began with Frankfurter ’ s designation of the flag as a national symbol.

He did not question Frankfurter ’ s designation of the flag as a national symbol ; instead, he criticized the pedestal on which Frankfurter put such national symbols.

Next Jackson denied Frankfurter ’ s argument that flag-saluting ceremonies were an appropriate way to build the “ cohesive sentiment ” that Frankfurter believed national unity depended on.

Jackson rejected Frankfurter ’ s argument, citing the Roman effort to drive out Christianity, the Spanish Inquisition of the Jews and the Siberian exile of Soviet dissidents as evidence of the “ ultimate futility ” of efforts to coerce unanimous sentiment out of a populace.

Then Jackson dealt with Frankfurter ’ s assertion that forcing students to salute the flag, and threatening them with expulsion if they chose not to, was a permissible way to foster national unity.

Jackson ’ s rejection of this section of Frankfurter ’ s argument has proved the most quoted section of his opinion.

In his Gobitis opinion Frankfurter ’ s solution was for the dissenters to seek out solutions to their problems at the ballot box.

The last leg of Frankfurter ’ s Gobitis opinion reasoned that matters like saluting the flag were issues of “ school discipline ” that are better left to local officials rather than federal judges.

Three years earlier seven justices had followed Frankfurter ’ s reasoning and joined his majority opinion in Gobitis.

Frankfurter, however, insisted that the passage was necessary since he claimed he was “ literally flooded with letters ” following the Court ’ s decision in Gobitis that said he should be more sensitive to the protection of minorities due to his Jewish heritage.

MacLeish ’ s career in libraries and public service began, not with a burning desire from within, but from a combination of the urging of a close friend Felix Frankfurter, and as MacLeish put it, “ The President decided I wanted to be Librarian of Congress .” Franklin Roosevelt ’ s nomination of MacLeish was a controversial and highly political maneuver fraught with several challenges.

Despite these challenges, President Roosevelt and Justice Frankfurter felt that the mixture of MacLeish ’ s love for literature and his abilities to organize and motivate people, exemplified by his days in law school, would be just what the Library of Congress needed.

In an essay first published in the Frankfurter Rundschau newspaper on 14 November 1986, Winkler wrote of Nolte ’ s essay " The Past That Will Not Pass " that:

The Supreme Court has interpreted those two clauses identically, as Justice Felix Frankfurter once explained in a concurring opinion: “ To suppose that ‘ due process of law ’ meant one thing in the Fifth Amendment and another in the Fourteenth is too frivolous to require elaborate rejection .” In 1855, the Supreme Court explained that, to ascertain whether a process is due process, the first step is to “ examine the constitution itself, to see whether this process be in conflict with any of its provisions.

Justice Hugo Black, Justice Felix Frankfurter and Justice Robert H. Jackson filed a dissent that was substantially similar to that made by Judge Maris in Appeal.

" In the event, the Palmer Raids were criticised as unconstitutional by twelve publicly-prominent lawyers, including ( future Supreme Court Justice ) Felix Frankfurter, who published A Report on the Illegal Practices of The United States Department of Justice, documenting systematic violations of the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, and Eighth Amendments to the U. S. Constitution via Palmer-authorised “ illegal acts ” and “ wanton violence ”.

The opinion that Justice Felix Frankfurter had authored three years earlier in Gobitis rested on four arguments.

The Brown decision was a powerful moral statement clad in a weak constitutional analysis ; Warren was never a legal scholar on a par with Frankfurter or a great advocate of particular doctrines, as was Black.

This was decided in a vote of 6-1, because before the decision could be announced, Justice Felix Frankfurter suffered a cerebral stroke that forced him to retire, and Justice Byron White took no part in the case.

Two of the justices involved in the decision had prior military experience, Justice Black as a Captain in the field artillery during WWI and Justice Frankfurter as a Major in the Army legal service ; however, there is no way to know if they were personally aware of the use of shotguns by American troops.

Justice Frankfurter in Guaranty Trust Co. v. York, summarizes the main point of Erie differently ... " In essence, the intent of that decision was to ensure that, in all cases where a federal court is exercising jurisdiction solely because of the diversity of citizenship of the parties, the outcome of the litigation in the federal court should be substantially the same, so far as legal rules determine the outcome of a litigation, as it would be if tried in a State court ...."
