Pennsylvania Railroad Co.,, vs Labor Board, 261 U. s. 72, 84 More over, it is to be observed that paras. q and P, which deal with the subject of contempts, do not contain the limitation in respect of employment contained in para. 20. Section 21 provides: That any lawful writ, process, order, rule, de- cree or command of any district court" etc, shall be proceeded against for his contempt as hereinafter provided" Sec ton P provides for a trial by jury upon demand of the accused in all cases with in the purview of the act Whether the general language of para. 21 should be limited by construction because it forms a part of an act dealing with unlawful restraints and monopolies, or for any. reason, we need not now stop to inquire. It is enough to say that in controversy such as we have here, at least, it does not require the existence of the status of employment at the time the acts con stituting the contempt are committed, in order to bring into operation the provi- sion of trial by jury.
 We take no time to discuss the con tention that the acts alleged as consti- tuting contempt do not also constitute criminal offences. According to the pc tition for the rule and affirmative in language, assemblage in numbers, pick eting and other acts, for the purpose of intimidating and preventing men desi- rous of securing employment with the railway company from entering such employment Prima facie, at least, this violated the statute of Wisconsin where the acts were committed, R. S. 1921, Section 4466c, and this Is enough
 Neither is 1t necessary to consider at length the final contention that the jury provision of the statute IS not nanda- tory but permissive. It Is mandatory. The argument to the contrary is based on the use of the permissiveI word 'may''-"such trial may be by the court or, upon the demand of the accused, by a jury" Strictly and granatically conr sidered, the word may limits both phrases, ''by the court and "by jury" but to construe 1t as contended, in prac- tical effect, would be to subvert the plain intent and good sense of the sta tute. And this Is made clear by the his tory leading up to and accompanying the enactment, as well as the reports of the committees having the bill in charge. The Judiciary Committee of the House, in reporting the bill, said:
 'The trial is by the court CD in case no jury be demanded by the accused, CD if the contempt be in the presence of the court or so near thereto as to obstruct the administration of justice, or (3) if the contempt be charged to
 ,e in disobedience of any lawful writ, process, order, rule, decree or com mand entered in any suit or action brought or prosecuted in the name or. on behalf of the United States. In other cases the trial Is to be by jury" Truse Report, No. 6l3, 62d Cong, 2d Sess.
 The intent of Congress in adopting the provision was to give to the ac- cused right of trial by jury, not merely to vest authority in the judge to call a jury at his discretion See Supervisors

STEEL AND IRON CORROSlON
Engineers Find No Appreciate Differ
ence Between Metals When Used
in Steam Boilers.

Iron and steel are almost equally re
sstant to the effects of corroding in
fuences. AS far back as 1881 the en-
gineer surveyors of Lloyds investigated
no less than 100 marine steel boil
ers. in actual use and found it nnpOssih
BILE to distinguish between them and
the iron boilers, so far as liability to
corroSion was concerned.
In 1891 81 of the leading American
and British shipbuilders were asked
for their opinion on the subject. Seven
held steel to be more corrodlbfe than
iron, eight held the opposite view,
eight were uncertain and fourteen
could report no difference between the
two metals. In 1921 careful examina-
tion of 50 samples of pipes from hot
water systems in New York city re-
vealed no appreciable difference be-
tween iron and steel. Last year an in
vestigation of 21 samples of wrought
iron that had seen much service
showed that the mean depth of the
Fittings was 0094 inches, whereas the
pittings in q steel samples showed
mean depth of 0,0O93.

ULD CUSTOMS STILL IN USE
Certain Articles Must Be Presented

in Ancient Days.

We (the people of England) pride

old heresy of the divine right of kings
to govern wrongly has been exploded
and is not likely to be set up again
Yet occasionally we are reminded of
an incident or custom which carries
US back to the days of feudalism.
For instance, the fcuda quit rent
for plot of land in Shropshire, grant
ed to the city of London in 1911 by
King John. 1t consists of a new
Ratchet. "A new billbook and two fag-
COTS. These articles must be presented
to the king every year by the city cor
poration, and it is fact that the two
faggots are soIemnly chopped in pieces
by the city solicitor at the law courts
in the presence of various high Off
cials The "chips" together with
Ratchet and biIIbook, are handed to
the kings remembrance.
This ceremony is preceded by an
other of a similar character, for six
horseshoes and sixty-one nails are
handed to the kings representative.
They represent the rent for the plot

courts. This plot was occupied at one
time by il farrier, whose duty it was
to shoe the horses of the knights who
fought in the tournaments held close

more marked in the Channel islands.
When the sovereign visited Guernsey
some time ago the seigneurs knelt
before him.

Snakes Cannot Charm

The principal venomous snakes in
this country are rattlesnakes, vipers,
copperheads and moccasins, Neno-
nous snakes have teeth on their up

each side of the upper jaw two hollow,

glands at their base, and pressure on
the fangs causes an emission of the
poison The fangs are shed at regular
intervals-pushed out by incipient

Capt Reginald Haselden, an expert
on medieval manuscripts and trainer
of snakes on the side, says snakes pos
sess no charming power. He believes,
however, that the staring lidless eyes
