BANK CLEARINGS.
By Lawrence VeilIer.

America has at last awakened
to the consciousness of her
|slums. Throughout the land q
new sense of social and civic re-
sponsibility = is stirring. Social
workers are now seriously asking
themselves, what shall 1t profit
a man to go to a hospital If he
must soon return to some vile
|slum?"
North, south, east and west
share in this awakened con-
science.
Staid New England towns, like
New Haven, have awakened with
"a start to the fact that one-third
of their population is of recent
foreign importation, that they
have not only slums, but a serious
housing problem. Aristocratic
Baltimore has discovered that
she has been "Barbarous Balti-
more" " and now rises in her
wrath, determined to slay the
hydra-headed monster that has
been sapping her vitality.
Milwaukee, stimulated by her
new socialist leaders, is not only
going to stamp out the slums, but
proposes to build for its work
men new homes on the city's out
skirts.
Los Angeles Is wiping out its
small slum nucleus. In San Fran
cisco public-spirited men and
women are alert and on guard.
Ohio is aroused and militant.

of Snohomish yesterday, who is a
member of the judiciary commit
tee," to convey the idea that there
should be freedom of press in any
fair and Just criticism, whether
1t is of the courts or of any other
public official. / would be in fav-
or of placing upon the statute
books the California law which
defines contempts of court.
Representative Edward Johnson
OF Douglas county is equally en-
phatic in his declarations against
the present law.
"The California law states my
ideas on the right of individuals
and newspapers alike to pass fair
comment and criticism upon the
courts as much as upon any other
individual. 1t is more plainly
stated than in the federal law,
and that is what want-a plain
ly defined right to criticize any
public act in just manner"
J. w. Faulkner of Snohomish
also a member of the judiciary
committee, also approves as
strong language as possible to be
included in an amendment to the
present law on contempt, which
should set out as defiite manner
the right of free speech and free
press.
THE courts are no more human
than other beings, and / see nc
reason why the should be immune
from criticism" said Representa-.
tive ]. l.. Boyle of Snohomish

may make, is not lack of respect
for them. 1t may eve nserve to
