Without Prejudice Or
Bias

!" W7 ITHoUT prejudice or bias and with
wv open minds'' nine farmers two min
ers, blacksmith and contractor, composing
the county grand jury, have indicted young
John 7. Scopes at Dayton, Tenn, for a high
misdemeanor under the State law.
The quotation as to prejudice bias and
open minds is not to be laughed at. It was per-
fectly possible for the thirteen grand jurors to
reach their conclusion that Scopes had com
mitted an indictable offense without being
guilty of bias. Thirteen firm believers in the
theory of evolution could have brought in the
same indictment. 1t was merely question of
whether or not Scopes had taught the theory of
evolution and whether or not the law had made
this misdemeanor. The answer was eyes" in
each case.
However, the action Of the grand jury
completes another indictment-the Indictment
of the Tennessee legislature before the bar of
public opinion. And the charge on which these
legislators are thus indicted is that they legis-
lated with prejudice and bias and without open
minds. A majority of the Legislators believe
certain things and they have endeavored by
law to compel others to think as they do. Only
men saturated with prejudice and with minds
completely closed could have done this 1t was
as if these lawmakers, believing as most of
them probably dc, in the theory of free trade,
had decreed that that theory only should be
taught IN the schools, that the theory Of pro-
tectlve tariff should not be mentioned.
The case in Tennessee is not so important
In itself as to cause the country serious con-
Germ. In another two years it doubtless will
be repealed and in the meantime the agitation
will have caused thousands to use their brains.
But the case is important as a symptom of
what is going ON in America. 1t is not only
in Tennessee that majority are seeking to in
Hict their opinions and their prejudices on the
minds of others and going beyond the bounds
Of peaceable persuasion to do So

Congress, The Courts
And The Press

TN deciding the income tax publicity cases
| the United States Supreme Court found
no occasion to pass on the constitutional ques-
ton raised by the newspapers involved. These
newspapers argued that if the court should
find the law to mean what the Secretary OF the
Treasury held it to mean, then 1t was an I'M
constitutional law 1t would. be a law In direct
contravention of the freedom OF the press, as
guaranteed by the Constitution Former Sec
rotary of War Newton D. Baker presented the
argument of the Baltimore Post on this point
SO simply and lucidly that the nine supreme
justices were offered an enjoyable opportunity
for selfexpression had they been able to find
Secretary Melons Interpretation of the law
correct
The right Of free press can not be sepa-
rated from the right of free speech Baker
said The right Of citizens to read the income
tax reports and to whisper the observations to
their neighbors or to broadcast them by radio
to all America, he said, carried with it the right
Of the newspapers to print.
A discussion of this question by the Su-
preme Court would have been useful. In these
days of restrictive legislation when so many
what people shall or shall not read, what shall
and what shall not become known, it would be
worth while to hear pronouncement from the
highest court. But Secretary Mellon was
found to be so far wrong in his view of the
law that the constitutional point never was
reached The Supreme Court, however, did
find in the case opportunity for declaring
fundamental principle that has been over
looked all too often-even by this same court
That is the principle that the determination of
public policy lies entirely with the law-making
branch of the government. 1t is not function
Of the court More than once in our history
The Supreme Court has been guilty of tsurping
This power But in this case the court S opin-
ion reads:
Something is said in the briefs, and was
said at the bar as to the wisdom on the one
hand, of secrecy and, on the other, Of publicity,
in respect to tax returns. But that is mat

FASTER AND
FASTER

G1EON DURAY broke the rec
ord for the Indianapolis
III Speedway Tuesday when
he drove his car in the ten-mile
qualifying trial at an average
speed Of 1916 miles an hour.
Fourteen other cars averaged bet
ter than 100 miles an hour.
Assurediy the crowds at the
Speedway Saturday for the motor
classic will get their thrill. There
will be speed and more speed.
That's what draws them-people
revel in speed.
The other day a motorboat beat
the Twentieth Century Limited
from Albany to New York. It's
pilot was cheered and acclaimed
as a conquering hero. Yet OF it.
self the feat was unjmportant.
Nevertheless. the race received as
much attention as IL life and death
or public welfare depended on the
outcome, just because It involved
a burst Of speed.
The Characteristic OF the present
age is mans Unsuitable quest for
speed.
Until a hundred years ago the
human race travelled under its own
motive power or by horse or sail.
The limit of human motive power
was about twenty miles an hour,
and that only for a short dash. A
horse enabled man to go farther
and faster.
Then came mechanical transpor-
tation. A railroad train made a
mile a minute, and the feat was
heralded over the country. That
was only a few years ago. yet
it is ancient history in speed.
To racing automobiles sixty
miles an hour is now a loafing
gait. Cars must average eighty
five miles an hour to qualify in
the 500-mile Memorial day race,
while an automobile has been
driven at a speed Of 1854 miles
an hour Even that is slow COM
pared with the airplane. which has
attained a speed Of 27S miles an
hour.
In a century man has jumped
from a possible speed of twenty
miles an hour to 27S miles an
hourl
Fifty years hence he may be
able to defy the law Of gravita-
ton and whizz off into space. He
is on his way, going faster and
faster, but what is, he going to
do when he gets there?
