The Ends of Justice.

The ends Of Justice are never served
through political Dictatorship. In our con-
ception Of the law, every consideration that
-svays or influences, or that imposes oblig-
ton, be it political or otherwise. should be
stricken from the field of activity involving
the choice of the judiciary. The trainers Of
the law prescribing for judicial elections, in
their wisdom conceived Of this when they pro-
yided that judicial elections should be held in
a month OF the year and on day OF the week
other than the time to which people are ac-
cpstomed to express themselves politically.
They were particular to pick the month OF
June rather than November, and set Monday
instead of Tuesday as the election day.
The form and intent OF such action cannot
be misunderstood, and any intent or design to
defeat that form and intent is not in keeping
with the spirit OF the law.
= The Argus as an independent newspaper is
commencing the reelection of Justice Floyd
E. Thompson to the supreme bench Of Illinois,
not because Of his politics, but in UNFOLDING the
principle Of nom partisanship to which the peo-
pie OF this supreme court division have adj
hered since an attempt was made to SO shape
the district that it could always be relied upon
to be counted as safely Republican.
The people resented this method of lamp
ering with ther convictions from the day that
the gerTymander was made and the sitting
member of the supreme court who had the
carving done was sent down to defeat for his
pains the first time he came up for election
thereafter-and since that time the people
have voted as they chose.
They refuse to be herded and labeled.
They believe the bench is abovef political
conniving, and they hope to keep it1so in this
district, at least
The Argus is for the present. Justice, Floyd
e. Thompson, because he is young. energetic
able and has proven an ornament to the bench
OF which the people of his, district may well
feel proud.
His associates on the bench. although OF
different political faith, desire to him re-
turn, because they look upon him as 'a-worthy
member. There could be no higher common
dation.
In the same spirit that The Argus as an
Independent newspaper has. since so asserting
itself, sustained Republicans for office, and ex-
poets to support Republicans of worth in fu-
ture elections, it urges the election of Supreme
Court Justice Floyd E. Thompson because L.
is worthy.

One Step Toward Armament
Sanity.


The Borah rider to the naval appropria-
tons bill, which the senate adopted unani-
mously, authorizes and requests" the presi-
dent to call a conference Of the leading navy
powers to discuss the question of the limita-
don Of naval ornaments
There seems to be little doubt that the
house will adopt the rider with slight if ary
notifications.
1t will then be up to President Harding to
act upon the authorization and request" or
not, as he sees fit.
He will not be bound to act, for under the
constitution the president and not congress
Is charged with the duty and responsibility Of
Initiating all activities of the government
which have to do with foreign relations.
But It Is hardly conceivable that the pres-
ident Will not be very greatly influNced nv
such unanimous expression Of congressional
opinion.
Especially is this so in view Of the fact
that the congressional action is undoubtedly a
true reflection Of the sentiment of the country.
While It is easy to be over-enthusiastic as
to the probability Of quick results from the
crusade to substitute sanity for insanity In the
armament competition, one must be hopelessly
pessimfstic who does not view the senate vote
as an incident Of great significance and pres-
nant with vast possibilities.

Americans are not becoming very enthus-
iastic over the encouragement from London that
a commission is to come to the United States
to suggest to the people OF the larger cities
that colony houses" be built in the thickly
populated centers here. In the first place
Americans do not need to get the suggestions
from London on handling our city population
when 1t Is generally admitted that London
has failed dismally in cleaning out her tene-
n.ent districts. In the second place the col
ony house. Ia not American and In no respect
meets the requirements of our people.
The "colony house" provides a community
kitchen, a community laundry and a commu-
hity living room. 1t practically eliminates the
privacy which Americans insist upon in their
homes and it encourages disease by inviting
poor ventilation. No community house Of the
London type has yet succeeded in allowing SUI
fcient natural light to get into a residence
building.
At the present time there Is unusual inter-
est being manifested in America in better resi-
cence buildings and particularly in apartment
buildings for so-called tenement districts. In
Illinois this interest centers in the opposition
to bill which is now before the house and
bdudte ~ OpIlu6hStu &uu WHICH WOuIu CuCOuI-
age the building of U-shaped apartment build
.ngs which do not provide adequate light and
ventilation. Competent health experts and
housing authorities have declared that the bill
low before the legislators would permit build
ings to be erected which would be a distinct
, menace to the health of the occupants partic-
ularly the children, and that while they do not
pretend to be of the London colony houses
they are not good enough for Americans who
| Lave high standards Of living.
When owners of property in population
oenters are SO anxious to use every possible
square foot of ground space for the erection
OF tenement buildings, and when they plan
| buildings which shut out light and air and do
not provide proper ventilation. the legislators
at Springfield should act in such way as to
protect the people rather than the owners of
tenement property.
We do not need anything in this country
which savors Of the colony house" Of the old
| world.
