Thus, Tor a period Of four months, Roberts in effect reversed not only himself but the entire court.
 The Case
 The case grew out of an inquiry conducted several years ago by the Interstate Commerce Commits sion into the business practices of railroads. Besieged with demands from the carriers for higher freight rates, the ICC decided 70 ascertain if there were not other ways of increasing their revenue.
 One thing discovered by the investigation was the practice of the roads giving large shippers steel, packers, glass, etc., big re- bates for sO-called terminal al- lowances." After extended hear ings held in practically every in- dustrial center in the country, the ICC ordered the payments discontinued on the ground that they were unfair to small ship pers and at the same time de- privcd the railroads of legitimate income.
 Forty of the big shippers promptly started legal action to have the ICC order invalidated.
 The government won in federal courts in Kansas City. Milwaukee and South Bend. But a court in Pittsburgh held in favor of the shippers. It was this case, ap- pealed by the government, which the Supreme Court decided in Roberts writing the opinion.
 Strange Interlude
 There were several interesting features of Roberts action in issuing stay of mandate on the losers petition for a reconsidera- tion of the case.
 On June 1, the day before he granted his order, the Su- preme court summarily rejected two appeals by other shippers for a rehearing. In both in- stances it cited the May IT de- cision as the basis for its urn-dOwn.
 Roberts issued his stay at the request of former Senator David A. Reed. Mellon attorney and Q strong booster of Roberts for ap- pointment of Roberts for appoint ment to the supreme Court.
 Pending the full courts action in October on Reeds petition, the big shippers, thanks to Roberts, will continue to receive their juicy terminal allowances" running into hundreds of thousands of dollars for the four-months period.

 One good turn deserves another. Secretary of Senator George L. Berry is F. L. Brownin, brother of Tennessee's Governor Gordon Browning, who recently appointed Berry to the senate Excerpt from a publicity blurh sent out about Pennsylvania ardent New Deal Governor George Earle: Governor Earle is descended from long line of ancestors - One of the most zealous boosters in Washington for the appoint ment of Senator Joseph Robinson to the Supreme Court is Con- missioner Vincent Miles Of the So- cial Security Board. A fellow-Ar- kansan, Miles hopes to get Joe's senate seat if he goes on the bench The three sons of Wyo- ming's new Democratic Senator Harry Schwartz are named Tom, Dick and Harry. He also has three daughters named Cuyler, Helen and Betty Jane Y. On the docket of the Interstate Commerce Commission awaiting action are 100000 applications from bus and truck lines for cer- tificates to operate. As it will take years to complete detailed studies of the applications, the Com. mission is issuing temporary cer. tificates.

Although not officially announced as yet it is believed that Attorney John T. Cullinan of Bridgeport will resign his post as town chairman of the democratic party. Spectacular is the, word to de- scribe the rise of MT. Cullinan in politics and it has not been confined to his home town of Bridgeport, but takes in the state. Much can be expected of him in the com ing years.

Selected Poem
NINEVAH ROAD
(To Dr. M. P. Rindge)

When June-time comes to Laurel Drive The whole earth seems to come alive. The pink and green near bouldered gray Move gently in their rhythmic sway. A poet once loved ones and words And sang of Killingworth and birds. This fairy dell wears cap and gown Quite high above the old shore town. The winding roads are thick with trees That nod with laurel-scented breeze The wild ferns with their dampened toes Cause friends to marvel at their pose One hears the tricking of stream While beauty walks where humans dream. This woodland casts magic spell Where shadows dance through Laurel Dell (Grace Lippincott, Madison, in the West H. zen Journal Courer).

 would not be surprised to learn that the Chicago Herald and Examiner, like almost every other newspaper in the land, has been. denouncing sit-down strikers, c. I. O. violence CD creators, court in-.. junction violators, and offenders generally against established law and order. No mercy should be shown any of the lot. Industrial . peace must be preserved and maintained if the army and the {. navy and the air corps have to be- hauled in to see to do so. A bloody civil war must be carried on to insure honest American working men and women the right to their jobs. These may be, so far as L. know or care, the editorial atti--. tude of the newspaper which gra@s ciously handed over a three timcs murderer to the police when it. got through with him as a source. of news. AND HAD COPYRIGHT 7. .. ED HIS STORY TO KEEP. 1Q1GV1NN1 61ANOo Ocr II. AC bleat is frequently made that the press is losing its prestige as a.. creator and moulder of public opinion. The loss has already. taken place and the responsibility for 1t lies on the press itself. News papers which below for law eiA-ss forcement with one breath and" with the next refuse to practice 1t where they themselves are con- cerned are worse enemies to American civilization than any group of workers, however largc,s who have been driven by years of oppression and exploitation to take, as a last resort, the law into their own hands. Newspaper ed-. itors are presumed to be cut above the laboring class in educa-' tion, environment and sense of responsibility to the social order. They show 1t when it suits their sweet pleasure to do so and when some one else's OK is gored.

Whereupon the reverend A. w.

Here Too

me SNepHeruLNS Ol LIlc HUI derer Irwin by the Chicago Her. aid and Examiner is not unlike an historic incident in local journal ism. There was Sunday paper which had its editorial rooms in a business block on Bank street. The next office was occupied by a dentist who for some days had not been seen about the prem ises. One Friday afternoon the one-man reportorial staff coming down the stairs from the floor above the newspaper office saw something over the transom of the dentists office which brought him yelling into the editors sanctum. The dentist had hanged himself by the neck from the chandelier and the white-faced reporter was demanding of his boss that the. medical examiner be called.
 What for?" snapped the ed- itor. "So that the evening papers can get 1t. Not much. We'll leave, that guy where he is until they have their last editions on the street Saturday afternoon and then we'll call the examiner. The. wait won't hurt anybody" rs.
 The editor was. like MT. Dine- hart of the Chicago Herald and Examiner, a smart newSpaperman. The smartest Waterbury has ever seen. But even he would not keep a murderer under his wing until 1t was time to turn him loose. or : course the local editor belonged to the old school of journalists. The present day crop is lots smarter.
 Liar!
 The War in the Little Steel Sec < tor. has now developed into the name calling stage. Tom Girdler of the Republic Company says, Philip Murray of the Steel Work : CTS Organization Committee is a. liar now, always was 8 liar, and always will be liar. Gov. Davey says Secretary of Labor Perkins IS a liar-not in SO many words Of course-when she denies that she told him to shanghai the recalci- trant steel company bosses into a7 conference with the union leaders. and keep them shanghaied until 7 settlement had been reached. Ma dame Perkins says-not in so many words of course-that Gov. Davey is a liar when he says she made any such demand. Ste.l company heads say the labor lead- CTS are liars when they announce that workers are not returning to their jobs in hordes. Labor lead- CTS say that steel company heads are liars when they declare the strike is broken and the union cause is lost. Everyone says every /, one else involved in the conflict is lying as fast as dog can trot.
