Peoples Voice

Editor Times-While our govern
ment is so opposed to few people
having a few hundred laid away for
just such times as we now have, l
would like to ask, Whose business
is it?"
Why not put the $16O00,00O that
Mr.. Hoover and others have hid
away, to work? If we turn loose
what We have so they can get hold
of it, then what would be the re-
suits? The best thing to do, the
way I see it, is to cut down on all
government wages, such as dry
agents, drawing twice the salary
they should have. Also the STE, 900
that Hoover is getting could be cut
to $4,000, which is enough for any
one man to receive.
While they are slicing from the
shoulder of the man that works, it
also would be well to slice little
from the ham, Ind even things up a
little. Things are too one-sided, all
for the rich man and nothing for
the poor. DRIFTER.

Business Will Cure Depression

Washington.-"I is often said that
we have just as many people, just
as much money, just as many plants
and machines, and just as many acres
of farm land as we had in 1929, and
it is difficult for people to under
stand why, in country which has a
surplus of food, shelter, and all of
the other things that we need mil
lions should be without employment, !"
said Secretary of Commerce Lamont
in a radio address explaining the
causes of the business depression and
the business mems remedies.
"The truth is that the difference
between good times and bad times is
simply one of balance" continued the
secretary. s'In good times 95 to 98
per cent of the people who usually
work are working. There is market
for the things they are producing
There is balance between produc-
tion and consumption"
Secretary Lamont explained that
just as the business depression with
over 100000 unemployed, had been
brought about by the normal opera
tion of economic forces," so the re-
covery must also be the result of
economic forces, guided as far as pos
sible by business leaders.
He thought that business leader
ship would bring about a "better
balance in industrial affairs" by ''in-
suring through proper distribution OF
income that consuming power will ex-
pand in step with advancing produc-
tion," and by "accumulating ample
reserves in prosperous years to carry
us through depressions that ma!
come in future years in spite of every
effort to avoid them"
Secretary Lamont said he had little
use for depression cures that called
for material changes in our economic
system or which demanded govern
ment intervention. He expressed
complete confidence in business mer
to bring back prosperity if Legislative
bodies refrain from meddling in busi
ness matters.
The return of the prosperity which
he visioned will come about not BY
revolutionary change-by the imposi
tion of any super plan of government
or industrial control-by the scrap.
ping of our present economic system
which in spite of its shortcomings has
made ours the greatest industrial ma
ton of all time.
Rather must our chief reliance for
working out a better balance be upon
private initiative. This is the prin-
ciple on which most of our economic
problems in the past have been solv-
ed, as we'll as that on which we have

EQUAL RIGHTS
For Women in Civil Serv.

The lower status which the federal
law and the policy of the United
States civil service commission i'm
pose on women as compared with
men is severely condemned by Miss
Jessie M. Dell, the woman member
of the commission. The other two
members are men.
When holding examinations for
making up lists of persons eligible
for appointment to government jobs,
the civil service commission makes
no distinction between men and
women. If woman desires to take
an examination for blacksmith, she
may do so. If she passes the exami-
nation, the commission will place her
name upon the register of eligibles
from which appointments are made.
There is general impression that
the appointments are made on the
merit system, and that of number
of eligibles for certain job the per
son who was rated highest in the ex
animation gets the appointment. Thi.
impression is erroneous so far a:
women are concerned. The fedora
law governing the civil service per
mits the appointing officers of tn,
government departments to selec
either men or women eligibles.
Miss Dell contends that this dis
elimination often victimizes compe
tent women in favor of less compe
tent men. She says:
"Thus it may happen-in fact, i
frequently does happen-that in max

ing certifications for filing vacancies
the commission must pass over the
names of women who are highest of
all, in order to meet the request for
men only. 1t is possible for woman
to make magnificent showing in an
examination and then see a man who
made ap oor showing get the job. To
meet the situation, the commission is
compelled to divide the eligible regis
ters as tto sex

just ground for the determination of
distribution of jobs, and that is the
ground of ability to do the work.
believe that no government, federal
state or local, has right to say that
an appointing officer may specify q
man for particular job which can be
done equally well by a man or q
woman. In the majority of gov
ernmental occupations, man or q
woman can serve equally well, anc
for all such employments | contend
that women should have an equal
chance with men in the competition.
To bring about this equality Miss
Dell urges the abolition of the civi

PAROLES

CENSURE of the state board of prison
y terms and paroles, emanating chief
ly from Los Angeles, brings forth a
strange defense of that body by James
b. Holohan, warden of San Quentin
prison.
The warden, according to reports,
points out that both his own prison and
Folsom are so crowded that the mems
feet stick out of the windows and as the
prisons have to be operated within the
budget, he infers that paroling some of
the inmates is necessary.
Paroles, used rightly, are excellent
channels for giving to the man who has
made slip, chance to start over again.
He is kept under supervision but is per-
mitted to leave prison and to a certain
degree resumes the position he occupied
in the world before he went to prison.
But the parole should not be extended
to second or third offenders, unless in
an extremely exceptional case.
If the state board of prison terms and
paroles must thin out the occupants of
the state prisons, it would seem that they
could select men who offer at least an
equal chance of becoming good citizens
again.
Yet the board saw fit to parole not
once Dut Infee times, man WHO HluSI
certainly be classed as an habitual GRIM
inal. This man, George E. Frank, cred
tied with 26 year criminal record, was
in court in Los Angeles this week, and
was identified by his victims as burglar
and a gunman. One of these victims had
been wounded by the accused when he
sought to protect himself during hold
up.
The state board of prison terms and
paroles will have a difficult time ex-
planning why such a man was permitted
his liberty.
Again, the district attorney of Los
Angeles points out that his office is con-
suited when application for parole is
made, but is never notified by the state
board as to what its action has been. In
this way known criminals are released
and information about their release is
known by their criminal comrades but
never by the officers of the law.
Warden Holohan states that If paroles
are restricted several large prisons must
be added to the California system. He
is probably right, and we would be asked
to provide all the luXuries of home for
the convicts, while at the same time we
have two or three islands off the coast,
admirably suited for prisons. But they
need not be considered for they offer
few opportunities for luXuries.
Mr. Garner evidently believes in few
warming up skirmishes with Mr.. Hoover
before the big battle gets under way.
