LUNATICS HAVE BEEN LErLoOCE

We have never seen a campaign con-
Quoted with such venom as lthe Anti
Government campaign. The adminstra
ton is held up as the most dishonest
crowd that ever held forth in Chicago
But, do they stop at that? Any one who
dares to demand evidence instead of
acting upon wild charges is also lined up
and charged with the same offenses as
the officials are charged with. And to
be so lined up, one does not have to
assert that the charges against the
officials are untrue, the mere refusal to
believe them without a show of evidence
is sufficient cause for guilt and punish
ment.
Indeed. fanatics have been let loose
among US.

The Council

There was an extraordinary meeting
of the Colonial Council yesterday
prayers were offered as the Chaplin
was unavoidably absent
Acting Lieutenant Governor Harry
Taylor and Assistant to Lieutenant Gov
ernor A oert Fabio were present.
The first item on the order of the day,
the Pension Bill was voted TO go to COM
miItee of the whole house.
The bill amending the road ordinance
was amended and passed It's second read
ing.
The bill promoting the MESSENGER in
the office of the Clerk of the Court was
passed.
The ordinance amending the ordinance
concerning motor vehlcuar traffic was
passed.
A Bill providing for the rebuilding of
the Sanitation shed in Freaeriksted was
passed.
Chairman Golden announced Bill No. "a.
introduced by Mr. Paul E Joseph, re-
suesting a Congressional investigation
into the political. social and economic af-
fairs of the island
Mr.. Joseph introduced his Bill and
threatened that if there were too much
discussion on the third paragraph. he
would uncover the sore and the stencil
would be awful.
The Chairman spoke in support of the
Resolution and thought it should be the
means of clearing the administI alton of
the charges made against it.
Mr.. r. de Chabert was the ne xt spea-
kerr He asked if this resolution was not
really brought forward to back up Mr..
Paul c. Yates who made charges against
the administration and has requested
Congressional investigation. He said, in
substance that it was not part of the
Councils duty to clear the name of the
administration. The officials are not
natives of the island. they are not en-
employed nor paid by the Municipality.

zion, no say in the spending of Federal
funds and is in no way responsible for

Distillers Feel Spur
Members Of the Federal Alcohol
Administration met and privately be-
moaned = newspaper story quoting
Assistant Secretary Of Agriculture
Rex Tugwell as criticizing their fail
ure to prevent sale Of expensive bad
liquor. They decided, however. to
stick pins in the distillers.
The distillers had taken their time
organizing code authority and 1t
finally dawned on the FACA that
they might be Sailing, preferring to
reap the largest possible harvest be-
fore coming under real federal con-
troll.
Questions Of quality and labelling
are supposed to be determined by the
code authority, composed Of distillers.
subject to FACA approval. So the
FACA had felt reluctant to act un-
til the code authority began to func-
ton. But finally 1t has demanded
action.
One member promises that federal
labelling requirements will permit the
drinker to know just what's in his
bottle and how much blending has

Labor and the Law

One thing the present congress
properly might do u to clarity the
labor union provisions Of the MIRA.
TO be sure, congress probably would
get into the hottest kind Of argument
while doing it. Some people would
like to see these provisions frightened:
others would like to see them loos-
ened.
Congress could not touch the sub
ject without stirring . pretty extern
sive kind Of storm.
Nevertheless, regardless which di-
rection congress finally chose to 60,
the Job ought to be done. Right now
there Is q great deal Of confusion
about what the labor provisions Of
tho MIRA really mean.
Do they make unionization COM
pulsory? Do they weaken or strength.
en- the company union? Do they
weaken or strengthen the working
mans right to strike?
Tho law Is somewhat obscure or
these points. Whether we tighten OF
relax the section dealing with organ
lied labor, we at least ought to make
its meaning clear.

A Good Recommendation
(WaShinutnn Starl

Suppose = government worker has
accumulated q thousand dollars or
over in his retirement fund when he
dies. Under the present rules and
regulations the money must be adj
ministered by the courts. His family
y put to the expense Of engaging an
attorney and Of paying the various
fees and costs In connection with
getting what little money there is.
The costs are sometimes far out Of
proportion to the amount OF money
involved, and there Is delay In OBJ
tanning the cash % urgently needed.
Ono Of the recommendations Of the
Civil Service Commission n It's an
n1al report Is TO end this condition
b. the passage Of legislation giving
tho government employe or aunui-
taut the right 70 designate bene-
fictary. As In the case Of private in.

government war risk insurance, the
money would Be paid directly to this

Death for Reckless Driving

Some sort Of record for severity in
dealing with reckless driving seems to
have been set by the Russian court in
Moscow, which recently imposed the
death penalty on . motorist who let
his car get out OF control, caromed
into . marching column Of troops. and
caused the death Of four men.
This sentence u al the more as
founding when one considers the fact
that, except In cases Of counter-revo-
lutionary activity, Russian courts are
reluctant to impose the death pen
atty at all, even for cold blooded
murder.
It isn't likely that very many
Americans would favor the adoption
Of such stringent measures In this
country. Nevertheless. there is some
thing to be said for the adoption Of
severity toward the man who
his car 80 poorly that he de-
stroys tho lives Of his fellow men.
We have . lot Of public menaces Of
that variety In America. and 50 far
We do not seem to have found any
very effective way Of dealing with
them.

When Judge A. n. Christianson told
the county commissioners ct Fargo
that tho present expenditures by the
government to hslp the needy are
merely temporary. he emphasized a
fact Of which all Of US have been
aware whenever We stopped to think
about it.
That fact points out the need for
. recovery In which psople viii no
longer need to seek employment on
public payrolls but viii b steadily
and probably occupied on = normal
basis.
The president hopes that time win

We should also do whatever lies
within our power 10 bring about that
recovery. Businessmen can do It by

are operating. Farmers can assist by
