SHELTER FOR ALL

WYE do not recall that the bashng in of radi-
w calls head, the arrest of a soap-box orator
or pick-ax raid of vigilantes ever caused William
Randolph Hearst or John Henry Kirby or Silas
strawn to get excited about the bill of rights.
To the contrary, they run with the crowd which
cries anarchy" or Communism" or revolution
whenever the American Civil Liberties Union de-
tends street corner hayanguer or peaceful pick
eter or when it protests improper use of armed
militia. AS a consequence the tar of radcasm has
been pretty we'll smeared over the Civil Liberties
Union because in the last few years it has had to
devote most of its time to defending political minor
ity groups and the economically underprivileged.
And now that these gentlemen are on the short
end of civil rights squabbe with the Senate Lobby
Committee they must be surprised, not to say en-
barrassed. at finding their stoutly champoned
by the Civil Liberties Union.
TT is the practice of the ACLU to strike out at
Il tyranny whether it crops up in Scottsboro or San
Simeon. This is something many rsactionaries have
been able to understand Ana apparently it is
something which many short-sghted liberals also
are unable to understand. For many who have stood
by the ACLU through its battles for "the underdog
bitterly crticise the union for applying the same
principles in defending that other crowd"
"Our business is to defend civil rights not to ex-
anime the PHILOSOPHERS of those whose rights are
violated says Roger Baldwin, director of the union
And he adds wise words of caution to those whose
approval of the objects of the Lobby Committees
inquiry blind them to the fact that if this procedure
stands precedent it can be turned equally
against other lobbying activities"
Imagine" he says, "a blanket subpoena issued for
ali kilograms sent received by the liberal maya
zines the minority political parties progressive and
religious organizations active in legislation Imagine
further that all their communications on every con-
cevable subject in the hands of a government
tai committee, without opportunity to contest the
examination of irrelevant communications to pro-
ect their rights by court action or to guard them
selves against the wilful misconstrucon that nat

Cross chapter here in the nationwide drive for

TODAY'S SCIENCE

highly competitive may lead to the
large-scale production of synthetic
rubber. Under the circumstances
the synthetic product may win a
substantial share of the market
even though it is more costly.
This is the opinion expressed by
DR.. E. r. Bridgwater of the E. 1
du Pont de Nemours Co. in re-
port to the American Chemical So
ciety.
A synthetic rubber industry has
arisen in both the United States
and Soviet Russia, he says, while
it is reported that the material is
being produced upon a small scale
in Germany.
ut is reported that a substantial
tonnage of synthetic rubber is today
being made in Russia from buta-
diene, produced by the high-tem-
perature cracking of ethyl alcohol, y
DR.. Bridgewater says. 81 have been
unable to obtain samples of this
synthetic rubber for test but it ap-
pears from Russian publications
that those in charge of the plants
which consume it, chiefly boot and
shoe factories. do not believe it to
be the equal of natural rubber"
No information of the cost of the
Russian synthetic rubber is avail
able, says DR.. Bridgewater, add
ing that ut seems obvious from the
yield figures quoted and from sta
tistics on the number of workers
engaged in the industry that the
cost of the product is many times
greater than the cost of natural
rubber"
In the United States, the du Pont
Company is now producing on q
commercial scale the synthetic rub
Der known as duprene.

ICE CREAM is one of the best
foods you can eat in both sum-
mer and winter. The ordinary COM
mercial variety provides IL per cent
of fat, IA 70 Is per cent of sugar,
and from 9 to II per cent of milk
solids that are not fat.
Not so long ago, however, ice
cream frequently was the source CT
epidemics, due to poor sanitation of
the milk from which it was pre-
pared, or of the ice cream itself
Today it is well controlled.
Yet even now you should eat only
ice cream that has been prepared
under the most sanitary conditions
and from ingredients that are clean
and pure.
In preparation of this delicacy,
everything used must be sterilized

SINISTER LAWYERS HIT
BY MICHIGAN

By G. W. L.
The problem of the shyster lawyer
has long confronted the American
bar. From time to time efforts have
been launched to outlaw this out
law type of attorney, but for the
most part the accomplishments
have been negligible.
1t is, therefore, refreshing to OBJ
serve that the state of Michigan
has put into practice in it's newly
lntegrated state bar, weapon ap-
parently adequate to clean up the
shyster.
In word, the Michigan inte-
grated bar provides that any person
may enter a complaint against an
attorney to any member of the bar.
From that point the complaint is
handled through grievance commit
tees, and finally, if the charge has
grounds, the attorney is tried pub
licly before three circuit judges ap-
pointed by the state presiding
judge.
If found guilty of a breach of
ethics, punishment for the attorney
may range to permanent disbar-
ment.
Banded about for many years by
the Michigan Legislature, the new
measure is described by the state

A LADY on a party line wanted
n to call a neighbor. Every time
she dialed the neighbor's number,
she got a busy signal. She became
determined to find some single sec
ond that the line wasn't busy, and
she dialed chain fashion. No dice.
Always busy.
Pretty soon an operator inter-
rupted, asking what number she
wanted. She told the operator. The
operator worked and worked, and
found the line always busy. They
decided to give up.
In moment the phone rang. A
supervising operator asked the wom-
an if she had been trying to get
party on her own line. Then it
dawned on the woman that the
phone she was trying to get was,
indeed, on her own party line. She
said yes.
"XXTELL," said the operator don't
w you know that to get a phone
on your party line all you do is dial
/ 1929 and hang up?"
And see what happens?" the
woman thought. But she replied
with some humor to the operator:
It guess it would be easier to run
down two doors than to go through
all that"
There was a short, dignified
silence. Then the operator said:
"Well, all you 90 is dial 1929 and
then hang up"
A FRIEND of mine was in a taxi
L n cab the other night that
bumped into another car and near
ly scared the wits out of him. He
wasn't hurt much, but he was in
terested in the argument that fol-
lowed.
The cab driver appeared little
bored. The car owner was excited
When they arrived at exactly no
place in their efforts to settle who
was responsible, the car owner men
toned calling cop.
The cab driver waved him aside.
'"There amt no use of calling
cops" he said with an air of
authority.
"All they tell you is that they amt
the judge"
No cop was called, either.
A FELLOW who goes with the
n sister of a girl from Bloomfield
had a great time telling me this,
but warned me not to breathe it to
soul.
1t seems the girl and girl friend
came to indianapolis for the first
time the other day and they were
walking at Pennsylvania and Wash
ington-sts.
They had the right of way TO
cross the street until they got to the
very curb. Then the policeman
blew his whistle, the hirt, and beck
oned the girls to him.
They went, and he seemed to be
astounded. All he had done was to
wave traffic the other way.
Don't tell any one; it might get
back.

WANTS MORE BROUN
AND LESS FISH

AND LESS FISH
BY James G. Barnett
In an article in The Forum re-
Gently by Rep. Hamilton Fish in
reply to Haywood Broun it seems
to me that he has emulated the
water animal that bears his sur
name, by taking the bait, hook, line,
sinker and all, swallowing it and
behaving just like Haywood pre-
dicted. He devotes just SO much
time to the issue under discussion
that he digresses and does a little
"Borah-ing" from within. He did
this in his radio reply to Comrade
Browder.
Like most present day politicians,
Rep. Fish throws the words Social
ist and Communist" around SO in
discriminatory that the words have
lost their meaning. Nowadays when
politician calls another politician
Socialist or a Communist we know
that he simply doesn't like him. The
words have become synonymous in
the political dictionary with
enemy" Meanwhile let's have
more Haywood Broun. Whatever
his pay is, he deserves it.

Southeast Council Is Told
Capital Must Learn to
Dislike Nuisance.

An estimated 30 per cent Of plants
that are hand fired" cause the most
smoke nuisance. declared H. K. Kugel
District smoke engineer. at meeting
of the Southeast Council last night
in the eleventh police precinct.
This Is mainly due to poor firing
OF the furnaces, he said. THE boiler
may be all right and the coal all
right. but indifference or lack Of
proper firing will cause unnecessary
smoke" he added.
Kugel explained that boiler
adapted for hard coal and burning
"soft" coal would cause unnecessary
smoke, as would also the type OF coal
used. He compared smoke regula-
tions here with those in Cleveland,
an industrial city, where he formerly
worked. and said that despite opin-
ion to the contrary, Washington has
q surprisingly large amount Of smoke.
He finished by saying that the prob
lem couldn't be dispensed with en-
tirely at this time, but that If the
public were educated to ways of COM
batting the nuisance and made smoke
conscious" 1t would be decided help
and a definite step toward the Grad
ication of the smoke problem.

vote. opposed the resolution submitted
