Let Judges Judge

The present Congress considerable talking about
law enforcement in the District but it has far neglected to
translate its conversation into ACTION.
There crying need for revision of the ndeterminate
sentence and parole law and although several bills have been
introduced with this purpose in mind there to be little
disposition of them to speedy enactment
The existing law and its operation have been WIDELY
CONDEMNED by all except those who believe that is quite
all right to turn hardened criminals loose
Judges of the District Supreme Court who certainly should
know something about the treatment of criminals strongly
opposed to the present system
the system in by the Federal Govern
which vogue here prior to the enactment Of
the local law would eliminate much Of the difficulty which is
now being encountered and at the time would give the
convicted opportunity to straight his release
from prison.
Probably feature of the local law the fact that
The Judges are robbed of all discretion imposing sentences
The indetemnae sentence idea sounds ne but it doesn't
work out well.
Under this provision the Judge must impose the maximum
sentence provided for ofense and minimum sentence Of
one-fifth of the maximum.
Because this system the Judge cannot take into consdera
ton any many factors which might justify an alteration
of the sentence =,
Federal courts judges one sentence varying In 4ehgn
TO meet the individual
They thus able to make the punishment fit the crime
That done in the District under the present law
hope that Congress before adourns will give us action

America Holds the Bag

Secretary Hull mania for free trade to have left him
holding the bag again-and this country along with him.
Mr. Hull has just made diplomatic agreement with Russia
by which Russia MAY spend thirty million dollars here and
the United states WILL lower it's duty manganese fifty
per cent.
Whether this agreement will bring thirty million dollars
here seems-to say the least-doubtful
That will wreck the American manganese industry which
is just getting its feet, certain.
But more important than this the fact that the agree
ment does say word about the hundred million
dollars that Russia the flood Of Communist propa
ganda that Russia is exporting to
OF the hundred millions, than four hum
dred millions were loaned AFTER the Russian reU0l-
tiOn.
The only payment haUe receiUed thus far has
been in the form of of Soviet literature, and hun
dreds of Soviet agitators.
And MIR. Hull concludes new agreement without men,
tioning either.
However, why worry about American money or American
institutions such nonssentals dealing with other ma
lions?

1t is hard for humans
To reach out or share,
For humans are still
Cave jewellers at heart.
Timid, suspicious,
Hostile to strangers,
Afraid to trust,
Afraid to let down bars,
Lest, by so doing,
They expose themselves
To attack or betrayal
But one must risk endleSsly
In love
Love is
A constant gamble,
A continuous sacrifice,
The most difficult
And dangerous
OF human adventures,
Yet, at the same time,
The bravest
And most beautiful
OF human dreams.
Love is
The newest and nobleSt
Gesture in civilization
No one achieves
Perfect love
But any honest love,
However imperfect,
Expands the soul
And enricheS the life
No love is sever wasted,
Even though the loved one
Prove utterly unworthy
For each time you love
You reach out,
And with each reaching out,
You become larger and wiser
Love is always worth while
No matter what 1t costs.
Hate is never worth while

American Inventors
And Europe

Samuel s. Hixon, an Ameri-
can, working his British war Of
flee laboratory in London, in
vents a radio detector which
can spot an aeroplane $50 miles
away. It was lightly passed
over in the news, but it SEEM
ed to this observer that it mer-
tied considerable attention.
Just such a watch dog at the
gates is what all nations are
particularly interested in now,
with battleshipS as antiquated
as a hustle, while the skyhawks,
packing dynamite and maybe
germs, are poised at every Dor
der.
America would like a rig like
that which would give warning
of an approaching air fleet and
allow perhaps four or five hours
to mobilize defense battalions
in the skies.
Mr.. Hixon is a native of New
York and a graduate OF Purdue
University. His assistant in
perfecting the invention was j.
D. Wheeler, a Chicagoan. Their
six years of secret research and
experimentation was financed
by George Rose, head of the
Great Universal Stores, Ltd,
the largest mail-order house in
Great Britain. The new detec-
tor becomes the property of the
British war office.
England probably will agree
now that Purdue has a fine
technical school. Ever since
the war England has been gath
ering in the most brilliant
young technicians of the world,
encouraging them, financing
their experiments and, incident
ally, putting on ice the result
ing discoveries in military and
naval technology.
A few months ago there was
underestimate tension between
England and Soviet Russia over
a young Russian scientist thus
Hospitality entertained and nur-
tured in a British war office
laboratory for four or five
years.
He turned up something quite
exciting in the line Of war CAD"
gets, and Soviet Russia which,
incidentally, had educated him,
jerked him home.
EXPERT ESPIONAGE
That incident lit up, in sim
lister flash, the new interna-
tional demand for fancy killing
machinery-but only for an in
slant. This heavily bank-rolled
chronological war Of chemists,
physicists, engineers and metal
lurgists is all off-stage.
Down stage the frock-coated
diplomats go through their illu-
sorry pantomime, while just out
of view of the audience the
scientists are fashioning new
attack and defense which re-
duce the most imposing diplo-
mat to the role of a stooge-
that is, if you care about actu-
alities.
Mr.. Hixon, describing his ex-
periences in London, made a re-
mark which, in it's possibly in"
adequate press context, sounds
naive. He said he was aston

An enlightened and independ-
ent judiciary is the safeguard
of the poor against the tyr1ny
of the rich: it is the safeguard
of the citizen against the IT,
rang of his Government.-John
G.. Jackson, OF Virginia. in the
House, January 81. 1905.
A group of New Deal mem
bers of the present Congress is
now attempting to incite all
American wage-earners against
the Supreme Court of the
United States by falsifying the
record of the great tribunal in
cases involving American labor.
The sinister purpose of this
trick is plain upon its face.
These members of Congress
seek to undermine the con-
fidence of labor in the indie
pendence of the court as a first
step toward depriving the court
of it's power without respect
to persons to do equal right
to the poor and to the rich"
If American labor can be
hoodwinked into believing that
the Supreme Court is made up
of justices who decide for CAPT.
tai and against labor, regard
less of the merit of the case,
labor can the more easily be
enlisted in a campaign to de-
prive the court of its power to
declare an act of Congress in
valid. This would make Con-
gress the supreme power in the
land-the sole judge of the con-
stitutionality of it's every act.
Such an amendment would cut
the heart of the Constitution and
Europeanize the American sys-
tenn of government.
If American wage-earners are
well advised, they will not en-.
list in any such sapping expedi-
ton to undermine the American
system of government without
going to the record and ascer-
tanning for themselves the facts
to be found there.
RECORD CITED
Labor and the Supreme
Court" is the title of one of the
most informing chapters in that
timely book for which thought
full Americans have Mr.. Charles
Warren to thank-"Congress,
the Constitution and the Su-
preme Court" In this chapter,
Mr.. Warren examines the rec
ord of the Court in cases in.
volving labor. The record
shows, as Mr.. Warren sets
forth:
The Court has decided about
The Washington times., 1935-07-18
Labor and the Court
BIZ James T. Williams, Jr.

one hundred cases involving
American labor.
Not more than 20 Of these
one hundred cases were decided
in a manner which Labor might
believe to be adverse to the in.
terestS which 1t claimed.
OF these 20 cases, however,
only six involved the constitu.
tiOnality Of an act of Congress
six out Of the entire hundred
cases decided by the Supreme
Court involving labor.
OF the other cases, six In.
volved questions of statutory
construction under the Sherman
and Clayton and other Federal
laws"
Two cases involved no ques-
ton of the construction of
the construction of statute,
State or Federal. They were
cases in which questions of gen.
eral law were decided.
Six cases involved the consti-
nationality Of a State statute.
CURE IN CONGRESS
Regarding the six decisions,
which construed the Sherman
and Clayton or other acts, and
the two cases which merely de.
cided questions adversely to the
claims of labor, the remedy lies
with Congress.
Congress may at any time"
says Mr.. Warren, "by apprOpri-
ate legislation, alter the law as
laid down by the court. Labor
should, therefore, direct its
efforts towards Congress, rather
than on the court; for when
ever labor can persuade Con-
gress that these eight decisions
were wrong, labor has it in its
own control to change them.
No amendment to the COnstitu.
ton taking away the power of
the court is necessary; and no
such amendment would have
the slightest effect upon the
power of the court to render
these decisions"
But this is not even half the
story revealed by the records of
which Mr.. Warren has made
such q, useful and painStaking
examination. There are at
least 60 cases in which the
court has upheld the constitu-
tionality of State labor laws.
What some of these laws are
in which the side of labor has
been upheld by the Supreme
Court of the United States is
worthy of more deliberate
examination and must be post
poned for another day.
