JUDGE INGLlS
 GIVES ADDRESS
2S Young Lawyers Admit ted tO BarWaterbury
 Youth Takes Oath

William F. Jones, of this city, and Harold Chase Ashworth of Water town, were among the 28 young men admitted to the practice of law in Connecticut, at ceremonies in New Haven yesterday, conducted by Su- perior Court Judge Ernest A. Inglis The oath of the practice was ad- ministered, by William A. Bree, clerk of superior court at New Haven.
 Judge Inglis impressed upon the minds of the new attorneys that they are coming to the bar at "a time when the importance of the law in the public mind is being more and more emphasized
 Notice of successful completion of the examination was forwarded the 2S new attorneys last Friday. Only that number of 98 applicants were successful in the bar examin- ation.
 Whether we like it or not" said Judge Inglis, "the fact is that the trend is very decidedly toward ex- pecting the government more and more to control by means of law the everyday conduct of men econom- ically as well as socially.
 Looking at 1t from a selfish viewpoint, lawyers should welcome the trend because it is obvious that the more laws there are the more call there will be for the services of lawyers. But whether we well come 1t or not, we must recognize that this trend increases our re- responsibilities. It calls for a vast amount of study to know the new laws and to understand their appli- cation. It calls for high integrity in properly administering them. It demands a higher idealism which will lead us to do our work ever keeping in mind that our only func- ton is to administer these laws so that they will work out justice for all, rather than unjust advantage for one or a limited group

MURPHY WARNS.
WILDCAT" SIT.
STRIKES TABOO.
Says State Will Prevent
UnWaTanted Acts

LANSING, Mich, Nov. "a
Q.N.SJ.-Governor Frank Muir
ply, the youthful jurist-executive
who led Michigan peacefully
through the major automobile
strikes of last winter, today
warned labor that the State is
ready to take action to halt "un-
warranted" sit down strikes.
Declaring what we all need
right now is stability in employ
ment and business" the Governor
said:
while the State Government
stands ready to help both sides
in settling disputes, it is pre-
pared to do whatever it finds
necessary to preserve order, pro-
tect legal rights and restrain
unlawful acts on either side"
RECENT STRIKE
The governors statement came
two days after the end of the five
day sit-down Of CIO workers in
the General Motors Corporation
Fisher Body plant in Pontiac, a
sit-down that kept 14,700 men out
of work. Murphy said the strikers
made a wise decision" in evacu-
ating the plant to seek redress at
the conference table.
He also praised the leadership
of President Homer Martin of the
United Automobile Workers Union,
who ended the sit-down with a
personal plea to the strikers in the
plant.
In pleading for stability in busi,
ness, the governor said:
"The workers needs this as
much as the employer does"
while the rights of workers
must be respected and guaran-
teed, business men must have
freedom OF management and
assurance that they can operate
without frequent and unwar-
ranted Interruptions. Otherwise,
as a matter of safety, they must
avoid large commitments and
curtail operations. When this
happens, business slows down,
unemployment results, workers
and their families suffer reduc-
ton or stoppage of income, and
trade stagnates.

Tackett was the first witness to
be called to the stand in United
States District Court today by AS
sistant United States Attorney
David A. Pine. He was asked to
recount details of his appearance
before the Senate Committee, in
custody Of a United States deputy
marshal.
BEFORE COMMITTEE
The charge against Creech, Har-
Ian county mine superintendent,
is the outgrowth of his appearance
before the committee last spring.
Taskett, one-time strike-break-
ing deputy sheriff in Harlan
county, testified he was standing
in the corridor of the Senate Of
flee Building near the committee
room, with Deputy Marshall Rob-
ert L. Bonham, when he saw near
by my old friend, Mr.. Lewis" the
jailer in Clay county where Ttack-
ett had been incarcerated before
he was brought to Washington.
With permission Of Mr.. Bon.
ham, Tackett engaged Lewis in
conversation when Creech ap-
preached them, he said.
What did Creech say to
you?" Pine asked.
RECOUNTS THREAT"
"He come up to me-" Tackett
replied, land said I know you.
I used to run around with you
down at Harlan. You have been
making a lot of trouble for the
mine operators down there, and
when you get back, you're going
to get an eight or ten-year
stretch"
Tackett then told how he and
Creach were then recalled before
the committee and how Creech
quoted him as having said he was
drunk when he made the earlier
statement before the committee.
Questioned further by Mr.. Pine,
Tackett said that he had been in
District Jail or in custody since
March 20 and had drunk nothing
stronger than coffee during that
time. He further denied having
made the statement to Creech
that he was drunk.
It is on Creech's explanation Of
the incident to the La Toilette
committee that his perjury indict-
ment is based. It was under cross
examination of Chief Defense At.
torney William E. Leahy that Tao
kett admitted the variance in his
testimony. During the trial Of
Cnr1S Patterson In Harlan county
on q charge of dynamiting an
apartment building where strikers
and their families resided, Tackett
had denied completely in the dyna-
mite plot, but before the Civil Lib
critics Committee, he admitted hav-
ing taken part and said that he
was acting at the instigation of
the mine operators.
Once . special employe of the
mine operators in strike-breaking
activities, Tackett found himself
in trouble with the law" he told
his Senate interrogators.
