Martial law should be the last
resort for the maintenance of order
among a free people. Folk in this
country don't like any such pro-
cedure when it is possible to avoid
it. 1t flavors entirely too much of
absolutism to suit the American
appetite. Up at Gary. Indiana. the
other day 1000 steel strikers, led by
returned soldiers in uniform, parad-
ed the streets, without first getting
a permit to do so. Troops were
called for and Gary and other cities
were placed under martial law with
General Leonard Wood in command
The soldiers were ordered to ares,

There is a lot of time lost, in the
aggregate, and a great deal of ex-
pense to the counties in North Car
olina in the system that we have
of having all the witnesses before
the Superior courts appear the first
day and stay there until they are
called for. 1t does look as if there
could be system devised whereby
the witnesses, both before the court
and the grand jury, could be sum-
moned to attend so as not to lose
more than two days in all ordinary
cases. Why couldn't committee
of the bar, or the clerk of the court
or the solicitor, map out before hane
about what work the grand jury
and the court would be able to &C
complish in certain number O
days and prepare a calendar, s,
that the witnesses would not al
have to come to the court the frs
day, and at the same time max
assurance tn at there would b
enough work on hand all the tim
to keep the court busy, without al
the loss of 80 much time by tn
citizens of the county, and at th

movement by the state TO construct
