After Runner Says He Parked
Double, Fearing Theft.

had been placed against bank runner
as he was making an emergency deiiv-
cry of a large sum of money was dis
missed by Police Court Judge Isaac r.
Hit Yesterday as he criticized the pO-
Hceman who had given the ticket.
Warren p Horner, runner for the
Fidelity Building & Loan Association,
told the judge he received ticket
when he stopped in front of bank in
the 1400 block of H street northeast to
deliver a bag of money. He said there
was no parking space available and
that he did not wish to take the risk
of driving around and hunting for one.
When he returned to the automobile
ticket had been placed on his machine.
Police should use common. sense in
instances like this one" Judge Hit said.
This man might have been robbed
had he driven around the block for a
place to put his car. I'm going to dis
miss this charge and will warn the
officer to use better judgment next
time"

Mrs Coolidge's Pension

The annual pension of $5,000 year sought fos Mrs Coolidge is reasonable and graceful thing which should, and doubtless will be readily approved by Congress Even in a time of economic stress, the burden will not be felt by government which spends in billions Many bigger expenditure will be less worthy
 It is not that Mrs Coolidge needs the money. Presumably she will be we'll cared for by inc estate her thrifty husband has left. But there is no need, for such rea- son, to break the kindly custom which the government has established. The pension is a guarantee and an appreciation. If Mrs Coolidge should lose her property. she would still be cared for while she lived In any case. she would have this lifelong re- hinder that republics. contrary to the old saying. are not ungratcfu. Presidents pay dearly for their honors, and SO do presidents wives. It is right to recognize their sacrifices.

Less Philosophy

The number of books published in the United States in lo32 was one-eighth less than in l93l, but one.third more than in 1922. The total was o.o35 books The novels, biographies, game books and books on economics increased. The decrease in output was found in philosophy. law, phi. lolosy, technology ehildrens books and travel books.
 The number of biographies and works of fiction almost doubled in the past decade. It might be added that many of the biogra- phics of that period were fiction, Bios- raphers. at any rate, took . good many liber- ties with facts. Apparently the public is not SO much interested in serious reading as has been supposed. Or perhaps the pub fishers underestimate public taste when they put out so much frivolous reading -- game books and novels with few works in philosophy and serious travel. Perhaps too. the philosophers have ceased phlloso' phizing.

 This book brings big-shot m ngster in New York up against q witch who has q pleasing hobby Of making very life-like dolls. When- ever this lady can kill the person after whom she modelled n doll, she can bring the doll to life; ana to accomplish her murders she sends these living dolls about New York armed with small but enec- tive stiiettos, with which they creep Into windows at night, ana
 Honest, that's what the book is about; and if you'll just permit yourself to be lulled into Q child | ike and wlde-eyed acceptance or tho most hair-raising impossibil- ities you'll actually find tt interost- ing.

Has A Good Reason Now

Veteran legislators have been trying to turn aside all thoughts of an extra session of Congress after Franklin D. Roosevelt is inaugurated. They declare that it is usually suicidal for new president to have to sum mon a special session in his first year in of' flee. But these are perilous times through which we are passing and if such vital leg. islation, as is now pending, cant be passed ,by the 72nd Congress then it certainly IS .President.eleet Roosevelts duty to call the 73rd Congress in extraordinary session thls spring. That he will do that is clearly in. dieated by recent events.
 But if the president-eeet desires a sufii' eent and good reason for doing that other than the urgency of many pieces of legsla' ton that certainly cant be passed by the present Congress we point out the newly ratified lame. duck amendment When Mis- souri ratified it this week it changed the en. tire structure of our congressional sessions Although the amendment does not become effective until October 5 of this year it's effect is felt almost immediately. The 73rd Congress would only have one regular ses' son under the provisions of the new amend ment And any Congress is certainly entitled and expected 10 have at the very least two
 The 73rd Congress normally would no, begin it's sessions until December of l933 as provided by the Constitution that there shall be one session each year beginning the first Monday of December, Of course that is thirteen months after members of this Con- afe@ were elected but in the days when this provision was written into the Constitution it sometimes took thirteen months to as' smbe enough members of Congress to con- sutute a quorum. But under the Norris constitutional amendment there won't be any December session this year. Congress won't convene until January }, lo34, SO unless Mr Roosevelt calls special session the 73rd. Congress must twiddls its thumbs for another year.
 . And inasmueb as i934 is congressional election year those members of the House elected in 1o32 must seek reelection. as must senators whose terms expire in lo35, All of which would mean that no special session this year would result in but one single session. that of io33. for the 73fd Congress. That's an unheard of event in mcdsrn legislative history. So President. sleet Roossvelt can approach the problem, of an extra session with the knowledge that

A seleetive sales tax is now being sought by the Connecticut League of Municipalities as means to keep the wolf from the door. Cosmetics and tobacco are two of the articles mentioned for the tax. In other words tax on cigarettes is to get elassier designation. It's a seleetive luxury tax. It can mean but one thing - bootleg cigar. cites And decreased taxes. If we are not mis- taken taxes on cigarettes showed distinct decrease in this state in the past year. Why add to the taxes and bring the total down still farther? It seems to us that there might be more chance of putting across a state inc come tax, though it will be hotly fought
 We wish there was as much thought put to the idea of lowering government costs as there is to devsing new and higher taxes.

District Courts Needed

Increasing evidence is being piled up in the Legislature these days for the inaugura- ton of the district court system in Con- neetieut. We refer to the countless number of judseship bills now up for consideration. Without casting aspersions upon any of the numerous candidates for minor judgeships or their sponsors we say that the whole scheme smaeks too much of politics to re- Acct any great credit on our court system. A non-partisan measure. such as the district court bill is, certainly deserves more eonsid- eration than it was given two years ago. With control of the two houses divided this year we look for a better attitude towards 1t.
 We don't have to go too deeply into the terms of the bill. Suffice it to say that all minor courts are abolished. This would included even the courts of common pleas under the present terms of the measure. Two years ago these latter courts were not included. In place of these courts would be established series of district courts, each one having jurisdiction over certain ter- ritory in which would be included vary ing numbers of towns and cities. Water- bury, for example would be one district with such towns as Woleott. Middlebury etc, included in its jurisdiction, Two judges would be named by the governor prefer ably and sufficient number of court at- taeles as the business would warrant
 Where there are smaller districts to be served and law enforcement records show less court business only one judge would be appointed. This would mean, of course, a great saving to the entire state. But it's real value would lie in the fact that poli- .ties would be eliminated from the choice of .tks minor court judges. No matter how worthy our present judges are (and many ot them couldn't be improved upon by guber. .natorial appointment we admi) the talnt of politics is still attached. Two years ago .tlw republicans in the Legislature openly .admitted that the courts were rich source of patronage to them, hence they could not rule them out of existence. Democrats could take the same stand this year for they will share to considerable extent in minor court Appointments by virtue of control of the senate.
 But for the democrats to reverse their stand of l93l would be practically suicidal sIt is up to the democrats of the Legislature to lead the way in securing passage of the district court bill. We have seen hundreds of judgeship resolutions presented this week and past weeks for approval. Only one man can fill each job There are bound to be some turned down by the judiciary com mittee. There is the likelihood of a fight on the floor of both House and Senate over some judseships where the committee may report more than one resolution favorably Let us hope that this may be the last year that the courts will have to become political footballs.
