STOCKS REACT
AGAIN AFTER
FIRM|NG

NEW YORK, Oct. 80 U.N.s0.
The stock market was erratic to-
day with reactionary tendencies
predominant.
Utilities provided bull leader
ship and q buying wave in the
power group sent a number to
new highs and stiffened the rest
of the list after earlier reaction.
The ticker ran two minutes be-
hind at the time and then trailed
as much on the midday reaction.
Renewed selling followed and
U. S. Steel fell more than point
and Westinghouse over 2. Util1-
ties lost most of their gains.
Business news was mixed. Power
production hit q new record high
and steel operations advanced.
Rail traffic declined.
In utilities, Commonwealth and
Southern was the most active,
one block alone involving more
than $4,000 shares. Huge deal.
ings also occurred in United Cor
poration, Columbia Gas, North
American and the A eric a n

IN NAME OF JUSTICE

EOR years Associate Justice John w. Preston
Of the California Supreme Court has stood
out as one Of the strongest influences against
the pardon of Tom Mooney and Warren Bill
ings. When. in 1880, he stepped down from
the high bench and acted as prosecutor" in
the Billings pardon hearing he displayed a
prejudice little short of shocking. Only recent
II Moneys counsel, John Finerty, branded
Preston's methods in that hearing as highly
improper. unprofessional and unjudicial."
Now the San Francisco News discovers that
in 1917. when the case was fresh in his mind,
even this anti-Mooney judge thought the con-
victlon improper and should not stand.
The News has just printed two amazing
letters written by Preston, then United States
attorney, to former Atty. Gen. Gregory.
MY firm opinion" he wrote, "is that the
conviction Of Mooney should not stand under
the circumstances.
Il think he should be promptly accorded a
new trial because of the unreliability identi-
flying him with the transaction, its inherent
improbability when compared with the photo
graphic evidence of the defendants and also
because of the fact that Oman the states
CIleA NllueSSi eViueHt1v manufactured MS story
and thereby cast serious doubt upon the entire
case"
Justice Preston wrote that Honest Cattle
man" Oman undoubtedly manufactured his
story either for the purpose Of getting into
the Iimelight or for the purpose Of getting the
reward" The police, he thought, probably"
began hunting for clews that would har-
monte with their prejudged opinion" The
evidence was such as ito raise a doubt as to the
guilt of the defendant Mooney) if strictly
legal testimony alone was considered"
In view of these revealing letters by one of
its own members, it is difficult to see how the
California Supreme Court can deny MONEYS
new plea for a writ Of habeas corpus, freeing
him from his long and unjust Imprisonment.

THE SLAUGHTER GOES ON

IT is an appalling thing to reflect that au-
= tomobile traffic killed no fewer than 267O
men, women and children in one month in
the United States; and it is hard to believe
Though gratifying enough, once believed
that this shocking figure actually represents
a substantial improvement over July of last
year, when BIO deaths were recorded.
Just why a nation which is supposed to be
so clever at handling mechanical appliances
should go on killing people with automobiles
at such an astounding rate is one OF the mys-
teries of the age. The one ray of light seems
to be the fact that in some states, at least,
the situation is improving slightly.
Twenty-one states. to be exact. have re-
corded fewer traffic deaths this year than
during the same period of 1884. AS far as it
goes, that is excellent news; but we won't be
able to crow until all the states, over a period
of years, have shown a steady decline in
the dreadful toll.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1935-09-03

beyond the horizon. An imaginative geog-
rapher. for instance. could declare soberly that
central Africa was inhabited by a race of men
who had their heads beneath their shoulders,
or he could 60 into exact details about some
city far up the Amazon that was paved with
solid gold. and nobody could contradict him,
because nobody had ever been there or was
likely to 90 there in the near future.
That sort of thing did not simply provide
interesting reading matter for the hreside. 1t
tickled the imagination and stirred the spirits.
and made men feel that they lived in a limit
less world wherein anything was possible to a
man who dared greatly enough.
II gave men a sense Of moving amid Won
ders and miracles. and it was good for the soul.
But now We are too wise. A yarn like this
one about the Arctic island is the most We can
stand, and we don't more than halfway be-
lieve it.
We have exhausted the worlds physical
possibilities. AS a result, we are restless and
bored without knowing exactly why.

A SURVEY

THE frontier of medical knowledge should
be pushed back appreciably by one of the
relief stunts presently to be launched from
Washington.
Some 5000 unemployed white collar"
workers will go out during October to start
ringing doorbells and asking people how
they have been feeling during the last year.
Before they get through, they expect to get
a comprehensive idea of health conditions
among fully 5000. 900 Americans.
Thus. for the first time in medical history,
it will be known just how diseases and dis
abilities are distributed throughout the ma
ton by geographical divisions by age, by sex,
and by occupation.
The United States Public Health Service
expects this knowledge to be of vast impor-
lance. Here, evidently, is at least one case in
which relief expenditures are going to bring
in q worthwhile return.

THE ROAD TO WAR

Out Of all the mystery that enshroudz the
- identity Of the co-ncessionaire. one fact
stands clear. American capital has taken a
hand in Ethiopia.
A big concession has been granted. 1t calls
for the development Of oil. That means Amer
leans "over there" And that. IN turn. means
danger. Danger first to those who go to work
in the war zone; then, the much larger danger
TO the peace Of this nation. when something
happens" to those Americans. From such stuff
is the martial spirit made.
Today We say-"Oh. novel; stay out of it.
Let EN- 60. and at their own risk. Nobody can
drag US into the war. Just because he wants to
be a soldier of fortune"
We say that now. but it doesn't work out
that way. For when the something happens,
on a foreign soil. whether it be TO an American
g~eologist working for the Standard Oil or to an
American missionary working for the Lord,
something happens at home. too. The some
thing is emotional. A chord snaps down in US.
We begin to see red. And il enough such tragic
events occur, We start talking out Of the other
side Of the mouth. And il the course of time
the drums begin to roll.
We've been all through that in our genera
ton. and so let's not kid ourselves that the
thing can't happen again.
Our best insurance against getting sucked
in as we were in 1917 is to spend a whole lot Of
time right now re-reading the history of what
occurred from August. 1914. to April, 1917. less
than three years later, and get ourselves all
freshened up to benefit from experience.
A careful study of that period will have an
exceedingly restraining effect on the emotions
and may so long delay the day of seeing red as
to keep us out of it by the simple process of its
being over before We get mad.

MRS. ICKES

THAT unbeaten public enemy. the killer
automobile. added one more prominent
victim to its tragically mounting list when it
took the life of one Of this country'S most use
full women. Mrs. Anna Wilmarth Ickes. The
wife of Secretary Ickes. killed on the open road
near Santa Fe. N NJ. vas one of scores who
met their deaths on the highways over the
weekend holiday.
Mrs. Ickes was much more than the wife Of
a Cabinet officer. She was nationally known as
a humanitarian. social refOrmer and lawmaker.
For years she worked in great, unruly Chicago
to bring comfort to the poor. honesty'to gov
eminent and justice to the masses. She
pioneered in the suffrage movement and three
times went to the Illinois Legislature as one Of
that states first women aSSemblymen.
1t was typical Of her independence that she
served out her last term even after President
Roosevelt had named her husband as Secretary
of the Interior. Chiefly she was known for her
research and reform work among the American
Indians Of the Southwest. She had studied
deeply and written ably Of the NavajoS and
Pueblos and their struggles for racial and cul
tural survival.
Mrs. IckeS will be missed in Washington, in
Chicago and in the great Indian country that
knew her so we'll.
