EttectiUe Method of Enforcing the Prohibition Law
Contributing Editors

BY the of the injunction the law enforcement
officers go beyond the first line of attack in other
words they can reach the higher up and do have

agent who usually the bartender manager of the illegal
establishment The nuisance law is utilized SO that the
proprietor owner of the property and business may be
reached.
The rights OF the proprietor safeguarded

However, opponents of the law of Injunction claim

This is in reality a criticism of entire judicial

The drys of the speed up law enforcement by
directing the attention of states attorneys to these prov
sions of the state prohibition law.
The federal government has closed hundreds of places
in Illinois during the past several years by of the
Injunction provisions of the national prohibition act.
There good why states attorneys should not
keep pace with the federal government In applying this
effective remedy to law vioaors.

and workable those of the national prohibition law

 No Individual iRghts
 ITO them no individual has any rights that they are bound to re. spect, no right to live as he wills. to speak as he wills, to think as he wills, unless. of course, his opin- ions conform with theirs. He is not free to. possess his own separate home or farm or garden, not free to educate hi sown children as he thinks best, not free to express any honest doubts he may hold as to the policy of those in power. not free even to quit the country if he wants to do so.
 Countless scholars and writers have been thrown into prison, or banished without trial, for having suggested some small deviation in the program of the party leaders who govern the country. Others have suffered the penalty of death for such minor offenses as hoard ing money. It is estimated that a million farmers within the past two years have had their homes and farms and cattle seized because they did not want to pool them ana have been sent with their fam- flies in poverty to remote regions of Siberia, or other distant points of the Union.

PROPOSE VOICE
FOR PEOPLE IN
RATE HEARINGS
Idea Used as Ammunition
in Fight on Utility
Measure.

"a PEOPLES Counsel" In utility
rate cases before the public service
commission and in the courts is the
bugaboo brought forth by Senator
Earl Rowley Rep., Laporte and
Starke) in an effort to defeat the
Moorhead bill in the senate.
The bill, which would bring util
ity holding companies within the
Jurisdiction of the public service
commission, failed a constitutional
majority by three votes Friday
Senator Robert L. Moorhead
J?ep., Marion), author Of the meas
ure, expects to call the bill again
for passage, he announced today.
Six senators were absent when the
vote was taken.
Purpose Is Outlined
In the interim, Commissioner
Frank Singleton of the public serv-
ice commission, creator Of the
peoples counsel" idea, has ex-
planned its purpose.
Briefly, it is his contention that
the unorganized rate payers seldom.
if ever, are represented in utility
cases, while the utility corporations
procure the best brains that money
can buy
That the state should provide
some representation for its people.
is Singletons suggestion, based on
many years service as commits
sioner.
Il believe that every public sery-
ice commission should include upon
its official staff an attorney who
might bear the designation of pub
lie defender" Singleton explained
today.
Public Not Organized
THE general public is not fam
liar with the law applicable to
utility Controversies not organ
lied to engage in such proceeding.
and approaches a rate case with
an attitude of mind rather than ali
array OF facts.
Corporation counsels for various
municipalities are usually engaged
in general practice, and frequently
have no special knowledge of public
utility law, participating in such a
case once in five or ten years.
Corporation counsels are fire.
quently representative to popular
sentiment which tends to make
them take the public point of view
without uncovering necessary facts
underlying the merits of the case.
They are often more loyal than use
full to the people.
THE public has discontinued. to
a large extent, the practice of at
tending hearings in rate cases"
Plan Is Assailed
But Senator Rowley would have
none of this Peoples Counsel bust
ness and on the floor of the senate
bitterly assailed Singleton for pro
posing the plan. Each member OF
the general assembly had been
supplied with pamphlet reprint
from the Public Utilities Fort
nightly setting forth Singletons
idea.
Singleton also was author of the
commission order denying rate in
creases to the La Porte Telephone
Company, which was represented
before the commission by Senator
Rowley, who is an attorney.

point out that the Peoples Coun-
sci" has nothing to do with his
