ed to sign statements urging the
parole or pardon Of the convict.
When the time comes for the
clemency plea to be heard by the
pardoning board, there is usually
just one side of the case present
ed-the convict's side. His law
yers and an array Of his witness
es are there to plead his cause.
Rarely is there anyone there to
oppose it. Of course, the law re-
quires that public notice be given
that the petition for the parole or
the pardon is to be made in order
that any opposition to such par
don or parole may be heard. But
who takes the trouble to register
any such opposition? Usually no
one, no matter how undeserving
the convict may be of liberty.
The state has no official whose
business it is to contest the par
don or the parole. The matter is
left entirely to a pardon board
or a pardon official who sits in
Judgment on the petition after
having heard only one side of the
case-the convict's side. And you
can imagine what that side would
sound like when presented by .
clever lawyer.
There is a great deal of talk
going about the country today
concerning the abuse of the par
don and the parole power. Such
criticism is we'll founded; and
each state, and the federal gov
eminent itself should adopt a
plan that will prevent, so far as
is humanity possible, the pardon
ing and the paroling of convicts
who should not be liberated.
There should be just as much
care observed to prevent a con-
victed person from being turned
loose who should not be turned
loose as to convict him in the first

Neutrality

The United States, historically great neutral among nations, seems destined to play that role more than ever in the im- mediate future. America, to put it blunt ly, has had bellyful of the sort of diplo- macy that leads to war. Well-meant efforts in the World war, along with bull-headed insistence on what we regarded. as estab- lished rights, dragged us into that conflict to our great grief. We don't want to be dragged into another such mess. Hence the almost unanimous decision of Congress and country to pledge neutrality and to avoid diplomatic, business and personal action that would interfere with genuine neutrality.
 In doing so we abandon some rights" hitherto regarded as sacred. We have changed our minds about that. Our people and lawmakers no longer consider it 8 sacred right to sell war materials to belIig- erents, travel on belligerent ships and butt into any scrap expecting immunity. We meant well before; now we think it was dumb. We quit trying to run the world We are content to run our own affairs, and internationally aspire only to be friend and peacemaker to the rest of the world.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-09-09
Pug Rivalry

Pugilism has gone respectable, along with pony and dog races, and their pros- perity waxes with business recovery. 1t was somewhat of shock, though, to find Henry Ford credited with offering $300,- 900 in cash and guarantees to bring the Louis-Baer fight ito Detroit. Even so, it went to New York, the bottomless pool of people, wealth and sporting blood.
 We are evidently destined to have mill lion-dollar prize fights again, as in Tex Richards palmiest days, or better. Or worse, if you happen to feel that way about it. The particular era of civiliza- tion we are heading for is evidently des- tined to be liberal-minded and liberal monied.
 We even have the old racial rivalry in sport again, on bigger scale than ever, with black and white hopes galore. There are no more Jack Johnsons for personality, but Joe Louis has calm intelligence and a pile-driver technique that Johnson lacked, and there are colored Napoleons distinguishing themselves in almost every field of sport. There, and in music, the race prejudice line grows thinner.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-09-09
No More Westward, Ho!

According to the modern conception of, our national development the theory of Ego west, young man," no longer holds good or true. We must rearrange our entire pattern of things in the United States and start afresh to rebuild the nation, particularly that part of it which in the course of the last 150 years we have slowly been allowing to disintegrate and disappear. Our natural resources are slowly but surely being consumed. The rate is too fast and we must not merely check ourselves but start moving in the opposite direction.
 This message was contained in the ad- dress of Dr. Carl C. Taylor, who is na- tional director of the Division of Rural Resettlement, to conference held In New Haven this week and at which the ad- mihistration officially launched it's drive jn}11 Atlantic seaboard states, COnnecti- cut included among them. Among other things he said, "The day is gone when we cbuld constantly expand westward, ever seeking new opportunities. Our popua- Hion has pushed in great surges to the Pacific coast and is now turned back upon itself. Our economic and social infancy and adolescence are past and new day has daWned for us; we have reached the adult stage of development.
 In other words what Dr. Taylor is driv- ing at is this. The United States is en- tirely settled so far as it may be consid- cred as a geographical unit or section of the world That period is definitely at an end. Now we must aim at settlement along other lines. And the task of his depart ment is to take over one millian destitute farm families from their present abodes and put them into fresh ones where oppor- tunity to advance as normal human beings is afforded. There is lot of truth in what the speaker had to say about exploi- tation and waste of natural resources. We see evidence of that on every hand. Re- trenchment is certainly in order all along the line.
 Some years back reforestation managed to get toehold in officialdom. Today it is established in practically every state in the Union as we'll as being fixed policy of the federal government. We. realize that without our natural tree coverings we are helpless before the clements. The same holds true for wildlife, bird and beast. We are beginning to understand that there is a definite niche in the lives of rational beings for such things as
