COURTS IN BUSINESS"

a remarkable situation With regard TO American
courts has been called public attention by the New
yorE World It is not scandal but perplexlng and
unsatisfactory condition coming about naturally,
whereby courts intended originally merely to dis
nense Justice become responsible for the administration
Of great business enterprises. This occurs through
receiverships.
An inquiry has shown that in one judicial district,
over period of six years. the federal judges were IN
charge of some 2 business enterprises valued at over
900, and during that time each Judge OF the
court was directing through receivers of 80
businesses of various kinds.
Judges are not elected appointed as business
administrators captains of industry They are ehos-
en- for their legal knowledge and their fitness to admin
ister Justice. good Judge may be, and often Is,
moor business man Yet under the prevailing system
great business responsibilities thrust upon judges
in addition their strictly judicial duties, and they
are obliged to shoulder them and do the best they can
So we find judges running railroads and steam
shin companies producing motion pictures, operating
aundres and chains of stores, manufacturing cigars,
etc The results often very costly to the owners
of the properties and the only class that can depend
on making profit of it the lawyers, some OF
whom in perfectly natural ways, have numerous re-
ceivershps fall to them and obtain very large tees.

AGAIN WE REPEAT

For years appeals have been made to citizens to
do their duty at the polls Threats nave even peen
made to force by law the exercise of the franchise
to what avail the results of important cleo
tions show. Less than so per cent of the people
respond.
Therefore, something more than appeal to
duty seems necessary. An organized campaign of ed
ducation should be pushed to arouse as necessity
for the preservation of this Republic, patriotic un
derstandng of the serious undermining influences OF
Pink and Red activities too largely prevalent IN
this country.
Every citizen who fails to qualify a voter, shirks
responsibility and weakens the ideal of good citizen
ship 1t would be wonderful thing if California IN
the coming election could lead the way by as nearly
1G6 per cent vote as possible.

BETTER BROADCASTING PROGRAMS

According to the manager of Station WEAF OF
New York of the most widely known broadcastng
stations in the country, symphonic music is the faV-
orte among radio listeners, with Jazz coming second
in musical entertainment and third in the general list
of radio attractions More than half of the radio fans
want interesting and instructive talks These facts
developed by studies of broadcastng over period
of l8 months.
The verdict is important not only for the light It
sheds American taste but for its hint of the lines
along which the radio industry is likely TO develop IT
the public would rather hear a symphony orchestra
than jazz orchestra, that is what it will hear The
radio stations strive to please And along with the
good music there will be increasing fund Of good
lectures from big men in all lines of endeaVor.
