UNEMPLOYMENT RELIEF
The continued unemployment of /
millions of workers throughout |
the country presents not only a
gigantic relief problem but makes
necessary complete revision IN
our approach to the problem of |
relief generally. The unemployed
person in need of relief is not
one requiring special care; he is
a victim of a system and of fac
tors over which he has no control
Those who still require special
social care could be separated
from the jobless, whose sole
need IS work, or the income which
ne would derive from work.
A new national and state policy
rejecting this new attitude to-
wards the unemployed is vitality I
needed. Unemployment assistance
should start, not after the person
out Of work has expended. all of
MS or her resources and has +
come to the stage of actual. pau
perlzation, but as soon as he or !
she becomes jobless.

CIVIL LIBERTIES
One need be no pessimist to
view with alarm the dangers
threatening our civil liberties.
1t is true that we in this coun-
try enjoy liberties of speech and
assembly which are denied citi-
zens OF many other countries.
Yet this should not give us a
false sense of security. There are
powerful groups ever ready to
support tht liberties of one class
at the expense of the liberties of
another; some like the misnamed
American Liberty League, take
on the cloak of democracy and
responsibility. We must be on
guard against this deception.
Secret, subversive organizations
like the Black Legion, the Silver
Shirts and the Ku Klux Khan pre-
sent a constant threat to cur
freedom. And there are mighty
leaders of industry who do not
hesitate to ask autocratic control
over the lives and liberties of
their workers.
1t rests upon you who make
the laws of this state to guard
our American heritage.

RAPPS SYNDI-
CALISM LAW

We. can do something in that
direction by repeating one of the
most vicious laws upon our STA
tute books-the criminal syndicai-
list law.
The law defines criminal syn
dlcalism as "the doctrine which
advocates crime, sabotage, vio>
lence or other unlawful methods
OF terrorism as a means of ac-
compIshing industrial or polite
al ends"
Laws of tbs kind are frequent
~ used as a spear with which to
destroy the trade union, farmers
and liberal political movements.

FARM LEGISLATION

Although this is essentially a

tam things we can do throuob

the mortgage moratorium law for.

TUITION RULING
IN FAIRFAX
PROTESTED

FAIRFAX COURTHOUSE, Va,
July A vigorous protes
against action Of the Fairfax
County Commissioners in refusing
to continue paying the tuition Of
county students attending schools
within the Falls Church, Va,
school district, has been launched
by a large group of local resi-
dents, it was learned here today.
Since the town of Falls Church
has its own school district q
tuition is charged the students
from out in the country attend
ing the town schools. In past
years. the Board Of County Com
miss:oners paid this tuition.
Schools Crowded
But during the past two years
the number of students has in
creased to such an extent that
the congestion Of Falls Church
schools has necessitated the
county paying approximately
$4,000 each year in tuition fees,
the commissioners point out.
With adequate county school
facilities located at strategic
points, the county board last week
adopted resolution which would
discontinue payment Of this tut
ton fee and furnish tranSporta-
ton to county students within a
reasonable distance of the schools.
To ascertain the wishes Of stu
dents in this matter, question
naire was given to the students
prior to the close Of the past
school year. These have been an
swered and returned to the county
school board. On the basis of the
answers returned, the county will
select the students to be trans
ported to the schools, the commits
sioners said.
Committee Named
The following committee has
been appointed to make the Selec-
tionS: Horace E. Brown, chairman
Of the Falls Church school board
and trustees; Herbert Williams, of
Providence district, and w. T.
Carrico, of Falls Church district.
Superintendent w. T. Woodson,
of Fairfax County Schools, de-
clared today this is not an effort
to remove all county children from
the town schools, but the county
is unable to continue payment Of
the tuition fees to the town when
similar facilities are available in
the county without payment Of
additional charges. He also
pointed out that none Of the
county schools were as congested
during the past year as the Falls
Church schools.
A committee composed of r. G..
Bucklew, of Dunn Loring; H. P.
Hevenor, Of Devonshire Gardens;
Milton Hartley, of Masonville, and
C. r. Morgan, of Merrifield. has
been appointed to appear before
school officials at their next meet
ing and protest any change in the
present school setup. Petitions
bearing the signature Of many
county residents will also be pre- |
sented to the school board.
