What a pity that SMYRNA

What a pity that Smyrna
Town Council did not include
paving the cutters and ordering
curbing where needed on Union
street. This important street
should, by all means, have been
included in the street improve
ment campaign Of the last year
or SO. Council saw fit to include
South, Delaware and Mt. Vernon
Streets in a curb to curb propo-
sition. Why not Union street f?
1t is not only the street that
beautiful st. Peters Church is
on, but as a thoroughfare it is
as busy as most any lateral
street in the town of Smyrna.
Probably it is too late to get this
done within the bond issue just
taking place, but Council should
improve Union street at its earl
lest opportunity. Good streets
are an asset to Smyrna and few
towns can boast Of better, but it
was a mistake that Union street
improvement was not consider
ed along with the others, when
it could have been done and TAX
en- care of in the bond issue
which the citizens of Smyrna so
recently by referendum vote, ap-
proved.

PERJURY

Members Of the American bench and bar are agreed
that there has been a decided increase in perjury in re-
cent years. They acknowledge that little progress has
been made toward r~cctifying the existing situation.
Chased rs a felony, perjury is. nevertheless, one of the
hardest of all offenses to detect to the point OF obtaining
convictions. Judges and prosecuting officials may feel
convinced that false testimony is being given, but proving
such a thing to be the case is never easy.
The difficulty of inflicting punishment for perjury has,
no doubt, had much to do with its spread. Criminal
agencies have made increasing use Of false testimony
both for profit and protection. 1t has been established
that in certain types of damage suits pcrjured testimony
may be hired with comparative case and little expense.
The hope of some of those who arc alarmed over the
spread OF perjury is that aroused public consciousness
will help put an end to the practice. It is a job of
housekeeping in which the public can be OF but slight
assistance. The burden of reformation must be shculdered
