The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1930-10-08
By ALLAN JOHNSON.

This is the fourteenth in the
series of articles Tammany HAIL.
The feigned horror with which the
capitalist press is regarding charges
of judicial office-buying is all the
more hypocritical when one consid-
ers that the press has always known
these conditions to exist and refused
to publish word about them until
republicans, intent on "muscling" in
on the graft, made them public.
1t is naive to think that anyone
ever received an appointment to the
bench without paying for it. The
prices vary in different cities and
states and are not always paid in
cash. Occasionally a group of finan-
ciers will secure an appointment for
a lawyer they know will render a
favorable decision when a case they
are interested in comes up for trial.
In this case the financiers, rather
than the Judge himself, will pay the
cost of the judgeship.
The appointment of Chief Justice
of the U. S. Supreme Court Charles
Evans Hughes falls into this cate
CORY. Hughes made his reputation
as "liberal" by attacking corrupt
insurance companies in New York.
But he barely stopped assailing them
when he was retained by these same
companies to defend the very cor
ruption which he had attacked but
a short time before. That huge
contributions to the republican cam
paign fund and defending the most
outrageous demands of public utili-
ties companies, has been the price
paid for Hughes judgeship.
Levy Paid By Deposing Sulzer.
\ Or take the case of Supreme Court
Justice Levy of New York. Money
flows so easily through his crooked
fingers that he probably couldn't af-
ford to pay the regular fee Of $751;
900 for his job. But money, after
all, is only a medium Of exchange,
and Levy exchanged his services by
impeaching Governor Sulzer, who

was deposed by Tammay because
he displayed some slight indepen-
dence, for his place on the bench.
Past favors alone do not bring
judgeships. There must also be a
guarantee that the judge will hand
down satisfactory" decisions every
time they are demanded. A few
months ago, for example, and more
than fifteen years after he led the
fight on Sulzer, Levy did as Tam
many requested by appointing JUS
tice Crater receiver in the Libby
Hotel steal. AS for Supreme Court
Justice Hughes, he may always be
expected to render decisions favor
able to the most reactionary and
rapacious capitalists in America.
JUDGESHIPS FOR SALE!
In New York there is fixed
price scale for every judicial Of
flee, with exceptions only for such
cases as Levy's, and these always
pay up in the long run. The prices
for the various judgeships are as
follows: Magistrates jobs, $751;
600; City Justiceships, $4,000;
$4,000 for General Sessions, $780,
600 for Special Sessions and $751;
600 for the Supreme Court. This
is not to say that sometimes the
price is not higher. Often it is
when Tammany is convinced that
the office hunter is particularly
anxious to be appoited.
Supreme Court Justice Cohen, for
example, paid 100000 for his ap-
pointment, but then Cohen didn't
feel the strain because his father
in-law advanced the money as a
wedding gift. Again, Supreme
Court Justice Sherman was forced
to pay $4,000 and evidently
thought it we'll worth it.
The case Of Judge Amadeo A.
Bertini presented Tammany with
some complications. True, there is
no one on the bench in New York
who is fit to associate with any one
more decent than a bishop, but
when a bootlegger, even though he

the capitalists, will get off our
backs only when the workers Of all
color and nationality are organized
under the banner of the Communist
Party for the final push that such
a revolutionary united front can
give them"
Exposes Fake Issues.
Moore also exposed the fake is
sues and unemployment measures of
the capitalist republican, democrat
and socialist parties and described
in detail the plan Of the Communists
as contained in the Unemployment
Insurance Bill which they propose.
This bill, which demands that $25 a
week and $5 additional for each de-
pendent, be paid to every unem-

recognized as a real workers mea-

Frequently during his address
Moore was interrupted by the spon-
taneous and enthusiastic applause
which greeted his many denuncia-
tions of the vicious capitalist sys-
tenn under which we now live.

This is only small crime in cap

not expose them.
What can the Examiner say
about unemployment while the same
paper in one day shows adds of So
women and 81 men looking for
work?
What can Mr.. Hearst say against
the employment agencies while his

to the conclusion that pawnbrokers
must be poor advertisers. Yes, there
is an economical reason for every
thing.

 Registration Hour
 Contestants in all events are asked to register with the commit tee before 10 am. July 4 It is to be hoped that the entire fleet of pleasure and work boats will be on hand at the lower float promptly at 9:30 to participate in the parade. In order to closely follow the sched- ule of the days program it is ne- cessary that there be no delay in the starting and completing of the various marine events.

With clouds lowering over the vicinity, and dropping occasional drops, and the weather man pre- dieting more of the same, the Moose picnic may or may not be held tomorrow.
 The Paps have been boosting their annual outing for tomorrow but will not have the affair If the sky is overcast. Unless the sun comes out of blue sky in the morning the picnic will be indefi- nitely postponed.
 Should the day be favorable, au- tomobiles will leave from the cor ner of Seward and Front Streets, beginning at 10 am. and will take the picnickers to Salmon Creek.

FOURTH MARINE
 EVENTS SLATED
Final Preparations Com pleted IF General
 Information Given

Final preparations for the marine events to be held on the morning of July 4, have been completed. Be- ginning at 9:3o am, the marine parade led by the official boats and the Juneau City Band, will start at the lower City Float and proceed to the face of the Government dock where the first event, the marine
 tug-of-war, will be held The vessels participating in this event will be rated by the horsepower of the power plants and are to be as nearly equal as possible.
 The most interesting and educat- ing contest will be the batting and setting of halibut gear The con- testants in this event will line up abreast of the Government dock and will conduct the same opera tionS in the taking of halibut as they do at sea. One skate of gear will be baited on the deck of each vessel, placed in the setter with anchor, buoy and marker attached and the skate of gear set in line with the starting point and the Cold Storage dock. An anchor and buoy will be placed at Cold Storage end of gear.
 Vessels will then turn and haul gear back to starting point. The entire operation may be closely followed from the Government dock Ar engagements have been made with the Juneau Cold Storage for all en- trants to obtain sufficient bait on July 3 to bait one skate of gear. The committee reserves the right to accept one share of all halibut caught during this contest.
 -for-Al
 The outboard and free-for -an in- board motor races will be run as a handicap in such manner that all entrants will have an equal chance of winning. Proper func- tioning of engines and good judg- ment in maneuvering vessels will be the determining factor in these races. Boat owners and operators should not be discouraged because of the entry of faster vessels but should devote much effort in sec ing that their motors develop maxi mum power and operate through out the race without attention. Any contestant adjusting or tampering with motors or refusing to follow the course laid out will be disquali- fled. Races will be run on a course starting from the Government dock then to designated mooring off Douglas and return to the finishing line at the Government dock.
 Comedy Act
 The comedy act will be the greased boom event and will be held on the starting scow moored at the face of the dock. Contes- tants will endeavor to remove a flag from the end of a long, slip pery pole extended at an angle over the inboard side of the scow. Three minutes will be allowed each entrant and the one removing the flag in the shortest time will be awarded first prize, the next short est time the second prize, etc. The committee warns prospective en- trants to be prepared to be received in the arms of Father Neptune. This contest is open to all corners and the committee anticipates that some fair entrant will take first prize as the judges are apt to de- vote more time in observation of them than in checking the allotted time. In case the flag withstands;
