GOVERNMENT METHODS

Many persons, especially office
holders, often wonder why there is
so much general dislike and distrust
of government activities. Well,
here's the story of a recent occur
ence that goes far to explain the why
of popular distaste for the way the
government does things:
A war veteran, one John G. Zahn,
paid his insurance premiums on a
5000 insurance policy for more than
two and one-half years. Then the
veteran presented a check in payment
for the last premium, but his check
was refused payment by his bank be.
cause of insufficient funds. The vet.
eran had no opportunity to make gooc
the check, as he died three days after
he presented it for payment for his
premium.
j. R. McCarl, comptroller genera
of the United States and interpreter.
in-chief of the meaning of govern
ment red tape regulations, was callee
to rule upon the matter. He decided
that presentation of a check, latel
dishonored as payment of a premium
on government insurance can not keeI
the insurance in force, though thu
veteran had no chance to make gooc
the check before his death SO the
veterans beneficiary didn't get the
insurance.
That was drawing the line pretty
close, and is it any wonder people
don't like government methods?

LABOR INJUNCTION is
VICIOUS IN PRINCIPLE

Alarmed at labor's growing resent
ment against labor injunctions, the
Chicago Journal of Commerce says;
eff the injunction powers of the
court are to be used by corporations
in such a fashion as this, congress
would be justified in listening to the
plea of organized labor that the whole
injunctive process be outlawed in la
Dor disputes" This is. another way
of saying that wrong may continue If
it does not arouse popular resentment.
Labor insists that tyranny against
one Individual is as abhorrent as
against thousand.
A wrong principle can not be Justl-
fed because it affects but few.
A majority can protect itself. Con-
stitutions and fundamental guaran-
tees are the individual. These protect
the minority against tyranny. The
enlarged use of the labor injunction
shows how wrong increases when
unchallenged. The injunction judge
has set up his own government. He
protects "yellow dog" contracts, aids
corporations in evicting strikers and
silences any citizen who would advise
workers to join a trade union.
Every conceivable interference
with business" is classed as contempt
of court, and punishment by the in
junction Judge, who denies trial by
jury and other elemental guarantees.
1t is too much to ask corporation
lawyers who have guaranteed to the
judiciary to be cautious in the use
of their power that congress permits
them to use Unchecked power in the
hands of any man is dangerous. The
power to issue these writs should be
taken from the courts-not because
the power is excessively used, but be-
cause the power is used at all.
The federal constitution authorizes
congress to define the jurisdiction of
subordinate federal courts.
These courts should be notified that
injunctions can be issued only when
the plaintiff has no other remedy at
law.
This will re-establish government
by law and give strikers the same
status as other citizens.
The present system brings popular
government into contempt.

For the Amateur "HOudini"

THE late Houdini, great escape
artist" amazed his audien-
ces by the startling manner in
which he e~xtricated himself from
the most difficult positions. Here
Is a bit of magic that will enable
the amateur "Houdini" to give his
friends d thrill.
The conjurer seats himself In a
chair and directs two or tire lem
bers Of the audience securely to tie
his hands behind his back, care
fully bind his ankles together and
then place q ring between his
teeth. The magician after an
nouncing that within three minutes
he will place the ring on one Of his
fingers without freeing himself
from the rope that binds him, re-
quests his audience to leave the
room and return within the allot-
ted time.
AS soon as the magician finds
himself alone he spreads his knees
apart in order to expose a part Of
the seat of the chair, as shown in
the drawing. He next carefully
drops the ring from between his
teeth onto the chair. Then stand
ing up he bends his knees suffi-
GENTLY to enable him to lower his
hands until he can touch that part
of the chair-seat back of him.
This enables him to pick up the
ring and easily slip it over one Of
his fingers.
AS soon as the conjurer gets the
ring on his finger he assumes his
original position. Then he calls TO
