Laws Ideals Mocked

A conscientious man can make fine living in the practice of law, but it can't be said that some of the overtoneS of his profession won't give him a headache now and then. Fine phrases about the lawyers sacred duty. to the public may ring through the corridors of law schools and the convention halls of bar associa- tions, but down in the cockpit in front of the judges bench it takes pretty good man to decide just when, where, and how all these fine words apply.
 Some 19O young attorneys were admit ted to the bar in New York the other day, and Justice Francis Martin took advan- tage of the occasion to warn them ot their duties and responsibilities. "The type of lawyer who uses his ability to enable the dangerous criminal to escape the law or to take advantage of an op- ponent is an enemy of the legal profes- sion and of his government" said the justice. "Your admission to the bar is not license to exploit the public. You start at time of unrest and uncertainty and Communistic radicalism, when it is more necessary than ever to support the Constitution"
 Now it just happened that day or so before this elevating hon1ily was deliv- cred, the Department of Justice revealed that lawyers for some of our leading gangsters are attacking the federal kid naping and firearms registration acts on the ground that they are unconStltu- tional. A precious group Of distinguished citizens is represented in this action, 1n- cluding the kidnapers of June Robles and Charles Urschel. The beSt-knoWn of the bunch is Harvey Bailey.
 Their lawyers will presently tell the supreme court that the new federal laws under which these snatch artists were put away are unconstitutional; and the odd part about it is that their plea will be very like the one successfully raised against the MIRA. This federal Kidnapping statute is based upon the power of the government to regulate interstate com merce - as was the MIRA. The court held last summer that the MIRA constituted an undue extension of this power. The lawyers for Bailey and his cohorts say the same thing about the Kidnapping law.
 And somehow this assault on the kid naping law has an odd sound when placed beside the remarks of Justice Martin. Here we have law under which the Department of Justice has solved 55 kidnappings, broken up some of the worst gangs in the country, sent g criminals to prison, and landed 25 more in jail to await trial. Would the justice tell his fledgling lawyers that an assault on this law comes under the heading of "enabl- ling dangerous criminals to escape the law" or of supporting the Constitution at time of unrest and uncertainty?

Should Be Prosecuted

New Haven officials are going to prose- cute persons caught stealing rides on the rear of trolley cars. Chief of Police Philip T. Smith has just issued orders to all patrolmen to bring in the offenders so that they may be dealt with severely, as they properly should be. This no doubt will cause no little sorrow in many home where parents are ignorant of the after school or leiSure-hour activities of their boys. Fortunately such an occur renee is often the cause of saving him from other acts of mischief that lead to worse things.
 There is nothing so vicious about "hopping rides" on trolley cars that the public should become needleSsly alarmed over the status of the youth of the com munity. There have always been boys who would ''hop" a ride on anything, whether it was wagon, freight car or a trolley. At one time Waterbury was bothered with boys jumping on and off of the trolley cars operating on Willow street. There were two stretches where the boys enjoyed precarious moments of "stolen sweets. We don't know if the habit still prevails. It was always bad one.
 It isn't that the trolley company or the officials begruding the loss of the trolley fare so much that they take such drastic steps down in New Haven. It is the dan ger of serious injury, if not death, over taking some ventureSome youth as he endeavorS to chamber aboard a moving trolley and remain on his insecure perch until he arrives at his destination We believe that the trolley company would much rather give free rides to those who hide on the projections of the rear end of car than have them there. To be crushed beneath the wheels of a ponder ous electric car is terrible fate. It awaits every boy who firtS with it.

Careful Study Rewarded

We feel sure that any careful study that Mayor Frank Hayes and his aides beStow upon the preparation of the 1886 budget and the accompanying tax rate will be amply rewarded. It is almost too much to hope that there will be a sub Stantial reduction in the city'S tax rate, but it is not in the realm of impoSSibili- ties. And we must bear in mind that ever since he went into office Mayor Hayes has consistently dropped the rate That is something which no other city in this state can boast. It was an &C., complishment for which too little credit has been given.
 There are many things to be done in the next two years of Mayor Hayes re- gime. Foremost among them, of course, is the reduction of the tax rate to fig ure where it will be acclaimed by all. But in accomplishing this we must not lose sight of the fact that sacrifices may have to be made in the name of civic advance ment and improvement There is the question of salary readjuStmentS. We know that the Hayes administration will wrestle with this mighty problem and subdue it before any move of importance is made
 The city's credit still remains unblem- iShed. Our high rating in financial cir cles has been preserved without any inn pairment of standing or loss of dignity. We have hopes that the city may carry on such a program in the future as will completely modernize it in every respect We have still long strides to make in san itation, which only time and expenditure of much money can enable. In the mean time we must lend a cooperating hand This is done in several ways = friendly advice and counsel, prompt pay ment of taxes, building up Waterbury in- stead of tearing it down.

There was lot of meat in the remarks of the Rev. Joseph O. Todd, retiring pas tor of the Mill Plain Union Church, Sun day. He pointed out how the Catholics of this city are able to care for the largest single denomination with less churches than the several Protestant groups. His remarks came in the course of talk in which he urged consolidation of the var ious Protestant churches of Waterbury. One thing he overlooked in his remarks rather pertinent, too, we think, was the fact that every Catholic church is the same. And that's true not merely here in Waterbury, but everywhere you go.

Figures issued in Monday nights Democrat showed that building in Con- necticut was definitely on the increase. It would be more interesting now that this is determined to see just what type of building caused the remarkable up- turn during October, said to be the best record attained in fifteen months. We would be interested in learning if homes are responsible for the increased num- Der of permits or whether it is business blocks, apartments, etc. We presume, though, for general purposes of encour- agement it is enough to say building is on the increase. That proves, of course, that money is available for building pur- poses. Actually it has been there right along, but there weren't enough persons willing to risk the chance of making a safe investment in any building venture We are glad to see that this fear is being lifted.

vate affairs of the little home, the erring husband, or mother, son and daughter, all the tragedies of the small family that is too poor to hire high paid lawyers to protect it, is protected by the family court. No longer are the precious matters of the little home made subjects for gossip in the daily press, or the Fly-by- Night scandal Sunday news paper, which feeds upon the entrails of all that is sacred in the life of the humble American home, because there is no law to protect the fam fly in its hour of legal stress.
 In New Jersey the same judge presides over the courts of common pleas, quarter sessions, and special sessions, and the juvenile and do- mestic relations court, except where a special judge is provided for the domestic and juvenile court. The value to communities of the domes- tic family court need not be stressed here, any more than the value of the juvenile court.
 The federal children's bureau has pointed out that great need exists for extending social treatment of the kind developed in juvenile courts as rapidly as possible to mat ters bearing upon family relations, especially non-support and deser- tion, the support of children born out of wedlock and other matters pertaining to child life. The possi- bility of vesting in the juvenile or family court jurisdiction as to di- vorce cases involving children, or as to the custody of children, was sug- gested as meriting careful study and attention.
 In Tennessee an independent ju- venile and considerations court has been created with jurisdiction over all family and child cases and non-Support, desertion and divorce and similar cases. The establish ment of a domestic or family court in Waterbury would have the warm and enthusiastic support of social and welfare workers and many judges and members of the Bar.

No personal attack on President Frank lin D. Roosevelt was contained in the let ter recently sent to him by Supreme Knight Martin H. Carmody, the latter stated this week when questioned by a political group Mr. Carmody might easily have pointed out that the Catholic order does not participate as such in pol itics. Naturally the letter was merely meant to express dissatisfaction over a situation and not over anyone's political leaningS.

Selected Poem
ACCORDING
(By George Whitefield D'vys in the
 Boston Post)

AOCOhDANU (By George Whitefield D'Vys in the
 Boston PosO Thanksgiving Day is coming
 All hail Thanksgiving Day, When all akin to worry,
 Is happily put away. We know we have been cared for, And this day understand, That still we will be nurtured
 By Gods great heart and hand! We know through every moment, Our blessings, counting OCT According as we prize them,
 So will God give us more! Thanksgiving Day is coming,
 Those hours of feast and cheer, When shadows and despairing So strangely disappear. When every heart is lifted
 To Him who reigns above, And teeming is each message With gratitude and love, What care we for the future? This day we but believe According we will trust God Just so we will receive! Thanksgiving Day is coming No matter what the past, A landscape bright and rosey Or darkly overcast. That still Gods face is shining, Thanksgiving Day we find Each passing cloud revealing Its radiance behind, A radiance that gleaming,
 Imprints the lesson deep, According to the sowing,
 So will the sower reap.

A Fine Encyclopedia in One Fat Volume
BY BRUCE CATION

The handiest one-volume refer ence book this reviewer has ever seen is "The Columbia Encyclope- dia," just published by the Colum- bian University Press.
 A staff of experts under the direc- tion of Dr. Cralke F. Ansley, spent some eight years on the uroject, and the result is a book of 2O00 pages which contains information about more than 52,000 separate subjects.
 Cross references make the rela- lively brief discussions of each irn- portant title full enough for all practical purposes.
 One of the things I like about this encyclopedia is its distinctively American flavor. Here, for instance, you can look up such peculiarly American subjects as the Conestoga wagon, Paul Bunyan, Johnny Ap- pleSeed, and the sod house of the prairie pioneers.
 It is also thoroughly up to date; Babe Ruth is in it, and Gertrude Stein-and, incidentally, don't those two make fine team?-and such things as air conditioning, cello phane, the IVA project, Manchukuo and the painting of Grant Wood.
 The type is small, but easily leg ible, and the text is printed in three columns on each page. Con- siderable care seems to have been taken to present controversial top ics in an unbiased and scholarly manner, while routine information about geography, history, population, place names, etc., is presented con- cisely and accurately.
 All in all, this encyclopedia is a notable achievement. It's price $1750-is remarkably low for a book which covers so much ground so well.
