a healthful state.
Naturally, I do not mean that 1t
would serve our country well if any
large number Of citizens regarded
the supreme tribunal with utter
contempt, but neither should they
bow down and act as if this august
body were above all criticism.
These men in robes are neither
gods nor devils, but ordinary mortals
like the rest of us. Upon occasion
they err, as is inevitable, and when
they do it is both right and proper
that the members of the court
should feel the lash OF public crit
icism.
The justices of the supreme court,
like the President and the members
of congress, are servants Of the peo-
pie. AS clients, we have every right
to complain when these lawyers fail
to meet our requirements. Measures
must be taken to make the court
more sensitive to public opinion.
Undoubtedly it is an excellent
thing to have somebody to act as a
check upon snap and hasty judg-
mentS of the minority, but it is
wholly undemocratic that such a
small and isolated body ever should
be allowed to thwart the popular
will over a long period of time.

Morse Was a Wizard

q. p. B. MORSE was one Of the
- principal makers Of the age in
which We live.
For that reason we think of him
sa triumphant genius, semitic
wizard, man whose natural abil-
ity enabled him to accomplish things
impossible to others.
We forget that he night have
gone down in history as d good
painter II he had 10 perfected the
Telegraph; that re might have
been a fair poet If he had not spent
so much time tinkering with pumps.
We also forget the ten years of
poverty and isolation through which
he struggled, when he might have
made a good living, as he had done
before, in the field of art.
Shortly after the initial line had
been built between Baltimore and
Washington, Morse offered his tele-
graph to the United States govern
ment for 100000.
History contains no ifs, but one
can not resist the temptation to
speculation what might have hap
pened had congress accepted that
proposition.
Government ownership OF all tele-
graph lines for 100000 in 1886
think of what it would have meant
to the country as a sourceof revenue,
and what it would have meant to
the development of public policy
as a precedent.

Wire Arthur Today

Senator Arthur Robinson, not often right,
deserves the commentator and support OF
every right thinking and every decent citizen
who desires real solution for prohibition,
when he demands that the list of congress
men and senators who drink wet nd vote
dry be made public.
The people are entitled to these facts. 100
manv of our lawmakers, state and national,
have gone into Office by giving lip service TO
the dry cause and then acting as bird dogs
for every privileged interest that would en-
ploy them.
OF all officials who deserve contempt, the
official dry and personel wet is the lowest. lie
betrays those who trust him. He brings dis
respect upon the noble experiment"
The Times has found occasion so often
to criticise the senator that it takes pleasure
in commenting him in this stand. You might
wire him today to keep up that fight and
make it real one If the name Of every
congressman and senator who votes con-
sistently dry and washes it down with whisky
could be known, the day of real solution
for prohibition would be much nearer.
But be sure that he gets all the names,
not few of his enemies.

Of unemployment have been created

IS not the solution, because such
wages bring still higher prices. The
problem is to find the proper rela-
tive wage that will represent the

product and enable the wage
Garner to buy back his share so
that the wheels of industry may be

Fifteen years OF close study of
the effect Of the laws Of economics
upon modern business has led me
to plan, which is known as in
dustrial cooperation and which 1
think will provide for such a wage.
A very brief outline Of the plan Is
as follows:
1. Determine for given period
gross income, material costs, over
head expense and pay roll.
2. Deduct from gross income sum
Of material costs and overhead

8. Find what per cent pay roll Is

Give the Jury a Trial

1t Is the mode today to ridicule the trial jury as
a bunch of morons. In most cases the indictment
may be true. But choosing the right epithet does
not bring the cure. How going to get twelve
good men and true into the jury box?
These questions are discussed by Morris l.. Ernst,
distinguished New York lawyer, in article, Give
the Jury Chance" in Plain Talk He finds that
the two great defects in the jury system today lie
in the scandalous latitude of the exemptions from
fury service and in the absurd delays in examin-
ing jurors.
In New York for example not only the profess
sional classes but even many mechanics are exempted
by law. Among these are men engaged in glass,
cotton, wooden or iron manufacturing" AS Ernst
remarks: mo doubt the spaghetti dealers, anchor
makers and southpaw pitchers soon will develop
enough industrial pride to be placed in the class of
favored adults"

is the necessity of wasting many dreary hours
waiting to be called to the box AS Ernst observes
'If every person called for duty were put on to

excused at 230 with accomplishment to his credit,

Ernst suggests the obvious and cogent remedies.
First abolish the privileged classes in reference to
exemptions and get a high grade Of material into
the jury box. This would be real burden on
anybody
With such revised system Of jury service, the
average time required Of each citizen would be one
week the jury in five years.

rooms This would "ayoid the terrible waste of time

Artificial Tomatoes Shy on VitaminS

tanned the most vitamin c, full
grown green tomatoes were next
and the small. immature fruit con-
tanned the least Of all The ethy-
lene treatment OF the tomatoes does
not produce any significant change
in their vitamin c potency.
It is important to point out that
in their studies the investigators
have used only the juice Of the to-
mato, whereas previous investigators
have used both the pulp and the
juice.
So far as the use of tomato juice
as a source OF vitan1ins is concerned,
the government investigators feel
that vine-ripened tomatoes are pref

treated with ethylene gas to de-
velop the color characteristic of ripe
fruit.
There is no evidence that ethy-
lene ripening has any bad effect on
the vitamins that may have devel-
oped in the products up to the time
they are treated with ethylene.

EVERYBODY agrees that the
~ fearful loss of life in the Ohio
state penitentiary was caused by
overcrowding. The prison housed
far more inmates than it was ever
expected to hold. Already the
movement to build more modern
jails is gaining Roadway.
I agree that penitentiaries should
be modernized, but I think that it
is not necessarily expedient to make
them larger. There is a better way.
One of the most effective remedies
for the reduction of crime would be
the recodiflcation Of the criminal
code. We have too many crimes on
the list.
volsteadism is the greatest breed
er Of useless penalties. And there
are other offenses for which courts
commit men, even though the COM
munity in general does not think
the culprits sinners.
We must get away from the effort
to bend mankind to the law. Any
law which entangles huge number
of violatorS is q bad law.
Palpably it must contain provi-
sions which the public is not yet
ready to accept. In effect, such
widespread revolt against a legal
provision should constitute a veto
as effective as that of the supreme
court itself.

Truth About the Illinois Fight

Students of politics might as well consider the
facts in the fight in Illinois between Ruth Hanna
Mccormick and James Hamilton Lewis. The fact
that Mrs Mccormick beat the stung out of Senator
Deneen for the Republican nomination and carried
Chicago and Cook county by an overwhelming major
ity doesn't mean thing in the election next
November.
The Thompson Grove Barrett Republican machine
that helped Ruth carry Cook county is wet the
Atlantic ocean, and Ruth processes TO be dry. That
political combine didn't carry Cook county because
they loved Ruth but because they hated Deneen. He
and his machine which is just rotten as the
Grove Thompson machine. licked Thompson two
years ago: and the Thompson Grove outfit merely
used Ruth as weapon with which to beat Deneen
and get revenge.
They didn't care darn whether Ruth was wet or
Try or whether she for or against the World
Court and the League OF Nations They wanted to
,eat Deneen. And if Ruth stays dry Jim Ham Lewis
probably will carry Chicago and Cook county over
Ruth by as big a majority the same bunch gave
ruth over Deneen.
There really is little or no significance in Ruth's
hostility toward the World Court or the League of
Nations Few people in Illinois care much about
either issue She was a instrument in war
between two rotten factions of Republican politics in
Illinois.

This broadcast will continue
throughout this week and next.
But, of course, it would be silly to
suggest that the entire problem of
unemployment could be solved by
our getting together and trying to
find jobs or make jobs for other
people.
I'm not minimizing such things. I
think that they can help. After ell,
it would be just as silly to say. BE
cause can't help everybody who
is out of work, won't help anybody
at all"

body out of work. that would be
something 1t might mean q great
deal to the particular individual
who had no Job at ALL
The answer is better organization.
We grow more efficient. That is, eff
41cent up to a certain point. For
one thing; we are constantly intro
ducing new machinery, and this
machinery is practically always
labor saving.
There is a certain irony In call
ing 1t labor saving" because at the
moment it often plays heck with
labor. When you get a machine,
which one man can operate and it
will do the work Of ten, then you
have put nine men out of work.
Nobody wants to stop invention.
He couldn't, even if he wanted to.
And there is no reason why anybody
should want to. It's nonsense to
dream Of the old days of the Mid
die Ages, when everything was done
by hand. We're not going back
there.
Anyhow, I asked the professor
about machines and men and he
comforted me by saying that "in
the long run" the men displaced by
new inventions went into some other
field, where their labor was needed.
That wouldn't comfort me much
at the moment, because I've learned
that men eat in short runs and not
long ones.

TOMATOES may be colored and

The investigators, Drs. D. B..
Jones and E. M. Nelson OF the

culture, have recently made COM
parative study of the vitamin value
of tomatoes treated with ethylene
gas as compared with those col
Iected at different stages Of their
development.
The matter is particularly i'm
