.Inries Are Imnortant

When the Presidents commission of inquiry gets
under wav it is certain to hear lot about the jury
system Many persons are apt to consider the jury
an obstruction to American justice and, no DOUBT al
times it is Certainly with the spectacle of Jures
refusing to convict persons arraigned under the
Jones law there is bound to be outcry against the
Jury system by the hundred per cent prohibiton1sts
Yet the jury remains important to the people. 1t
continues to protect against oppression.
Consider its history: Judges and other agents OF
the kings had acquired the habit of hanging people
for petty theft The people were unable to change
the Judges or kings but they did obtain the right to
be tried by their peers-meanng their neighbors, and
folks who knew them and had the interests and
feelings as themselves. They knew that juries so
made up would hesitate to hang man for stealing
a sheep: they would find mot guilty" instead.
That is what happened
In the course of time the makers and enforcers OF
laws learned that less drastic penalties and and
swifter enforcement is the answer to crime The too
drastic laws were nullfed though many remained
long on the books.
1t was SO with the blue laws. Ducking for gossip
and drowning for witchcraft had to be nullihed
There are hundreds of such silly laws still on the
books today but no one thinks of enforcing them and
no one should think of enforcing them
There is nothing sacred about the statutes. AL
are nan-uade; some are fool-nade.

The Busy Housewife

The governments bureau of home economics just
has upset another popular belief, and one which We
suspect was cherished by some husbands.
We were quite sure, having been told SO often,
that home life was disappearing and that ancient
virtues were being forgotten The whole race in fact
was imperilled by the growth Of generation Of
cigaret-snoking, cardpayng women, who spent their
time going to the movies gaddng about when they
should have been at home darning papa's socks or
ninding little Jimmie. They fed the family out Of
cans instead of bothering to cook. And so on-you
know the story.
Now the bureau through survey has discovered
that despite changed conditions and all the labor
saving devices, the average American housewife still
has as many working hl her husband.
The average working time of the women studied
was fifty-one hours week. Wives in small towns
worked ffty-ons hours, and in cities little more
than the forty-eight hours which has been established
by union labor Farm wives worked sixty-taree hours
a week.
The bureau concludes that the time spent by mar
ried women in housekeeping must be reduced to a
reasonable full-tine job for those now overworked.
and to leisure time job for those who better
adapted to some other kind of work, but are pre-
vented by home duties.
The worst is yet to come The survey is being
extended to find out the money value of housewives
time.

A PRESIDENT CENSURED
March 2R

A PRESIDENT CENSURED
March 20
ATINETY-FIVE years ago today
IN the dignified wall of the
United States senate chamber
echoed unprecedented proceedings
on the floor. For the first time in
the history of the country. staid
senators were so annoyed by the
actions OF The chief executive that a
resolution Of censure was introduced,
argued long and bitterly and finally
passed.
The President was Andrew jack
son, and in 1897. three years after
its passage. the resolution was ex-
plunged by vote from the record.
Incidents leading up to its pas
sage were as colorful as have fea-
tured the administration Of any
President. Jackson was bitter
foe of the moneyed interests and
believed that the United States
bank system was detrimental to the
common people.
He ordered government deposits
removed from it. A course of ac-
ton which his cabinet did not ap-
prove. His secretary Of the treasury
refused to carry out the order. so
Jackson removed him and appointed
Roger B fancy.
Taney's appointment was not rati-
fed by the senate, so Jackson made
him chief justice Of the United
States.

The Homicide Rate

1t is something of a surprise to learn that figures
compiled by Dr. Frederick L. Hoffman, statistician
for the Prudential Insurance Company. show that
Chicago does not have the highest homicide rate in
the country
The distinction, whatever it may be worth is held
by Detroit, where in 1928 there were 165 homcida]
deaths for every 100000 of population as compared
with Chicago's 1873.
Chicago, of course led the country in total horni-
cides-498 New York, second in totals with 4o1 was
fifth in the actual homicide rate being surpassed BY
Cleveland and Philadelphia as well as Detroit and
Chicago.
These are dubious honors for all of these cities II
Is to be hoped that publication of the figures will
spur citizens to new realization Of the seriousness
OF the situation.
