JUSTICE BLACK
 IN FIRST DECISION
tcontlnued from Page l,

concerned Q commission order orig- inally issued in December, 1881, against the Standard Education So. ciety of Mlnnisota, the Standard Encycolpedia Corporation of Illinois, and three officials of the two oorn- panies--H. M. Stanford, w. II. Ward, and A. J. 0reener. It directed ces. satlon of certain alleged unfair practices in selling and advertising the encyclopedia and certain corre- spondence courses offered by the so- clety.
 Particularly condemned by the commission were advertisements pur- porting to give free the l0-volume encyclopedia on condition that the recipient subscribe to the l0~yeaE supplemental loose-leaf service for 909.b0. Actually, the commission charged, the general price of the encyclopedia together with the sup- plement was $80.60.
 Ill addition, the commissions or. der condemned certain other "un. fair practices" The order set forth 10 specific unfair" practices.
 Last year the commission peti- toned the circuit court for enforce ment of It's order. After trial that tribunal issued It's decision reversing three of the 10 specific citations and modifying the remainder.
 Blacks opinion presented the un' animous decision of the court.
 Latest Attack On Black
 The latest attack upon Blacks eligibility was not Q legal proceed ing, but Q demand that President Roosevelt order Attorney Genera Homer s. Cummings to seek Justice Blacks removal from the position which he now assumes to hold." Il was made in letter to the Presi. dent by Albert Levitt, former Justice department employe whose petition to the supreme court for Q review of the Black case already has beer denied.
 L evitt's letter accused the Presi. dent of being directly responsible for the "illegal presence" of Justice Black on the bench and claimed that it was entirely unfair" for hin ito compel private litigants to figh' against, or else suffer under, an il. legal condition which you, yourself have created"
 Reiterates Argument
 Levitt reiterated the argument ht had made before the court: I 1. That no vacancy exited wher Black was appointed because hi predecessor merely retired.
 2. That Black became constitu' tionally ineligible to serve on th' bench, because the 'U. 6. senate while he was a member of VlaG Douy increased the emoluments of thu office of voting retirement pay ts justices past the age of 65.
 The court rejected Levitt's peti' ton, and a similar one presented b! Patrick Henry Kelly, a Boston, Mass attorney. on the ground that neith' CT petitioner had shown direct in jury by Blacks appointment. "The supreme court has indicated that it would consider the eligibilit.

COMMANDER D. J.
 DOHERTY IS HOME

Woburn, Mass, Nov. 8-(UP) - National American Legion Com mander Daniel J. Doherty was at home in his native Woburn today, but only for one day, and even that broken by official duties.
 'Welcome Home Danny" read the sign across city square as 75,0O0 lined the streets of this city of only 10000 to view more than 10000 of Doherty's Legion comrades on parade yesterday. For four hours Doherty stood in the reviewing stand with city, state. county and Legion officials.
 Every Legion post in the state wa s represented. The marchers from Worcester county alone re- quired % minutes to pass the ge- viewing stand. A reception in City Hall followed the parade.
 Immediately after the New York convention in September, Doherty sailed for Europe. so this was his first appearance in Woburn since his election.

CCunsinusd trOm Paee D

Il0ndOn. Nov. 0.--(UpDs--Lcrd Benverhrookas newspaper Daily Ex- prcns, which since before the Duke oe Windsor's abdication has been perhaps his most vigorous defender, advised him today to "step outside tho public arena"
 The advice was given him as "the best that his friends can tender him.s
 Commenting on its advice, the Daily Express said today:
 ~That is hard advice. For the duke does not want Co loaf and never did. He does want to lear 0 useful life. Bgt for some time to come whatever he puts his hand to he will be criticised and probably misunder- stood. Therefore, while that danger lasts, he had better revert to the intention he expressed in his fare- well speech, T now quit altogether public affalrs.'"
 A new article, displayed on the first page, asserted that the duke talked yesterday to his brother successor, King George VI, who call- cd him from Windsor castle. The Express asserted that the king sought news of his brothers plans, and that the duke told him 1t would be at least Q week before he and the duchess decided what to do.
 Discussion With Family
 It was added that there had been 0Ome informal discussion between the duke and his family regarding the possibility of his visiting Brit ain.
 '.But even if other considerations could be overcome" said the Ex- press, "there Is the major difficulty of the status of the duchess in Britt ain. It is known that the duke holds strongly that his wife should share his title Gas Q royal highnesso if they are to return. It Is unlikely that this condition would be granted"

"He then got out a notebook and pencil and asked the steward for his name. The steward told him his name was Bailey. I thought when I had left the diner that they would keep quiet. About 10 minutes later I heard that they were using the same kind of language.
 Best Thing to Do
 "So thought that the best thing to do was to have New London mo- tified and have the railroad police there to go back to the diner and quiet them. asked the agent at Saybrook to notify New London.
 "The officer had quieted them and I was going to let them go to Provi- dence, but Carl Byoir of 10 East 40th street, New York city, said that if did not have them taken off the train he would sue the railroad for not protecting the passengers from that kind of language, so I told the officers to take them off,"
 Steward Backed Up
 The steward. L. H. Bailey, in his report to Snavely. said most of the guests in the dining car were com- plaining of the loud cursing and swearing"
 "All of the guests" Bailey report cd, "said they would vouch for my justification in having the men taken Dff."
 Bailey obtained the names of six witnesses.
 The arrests were made by rail- road policeman Harold Swanson and local officer George McCaskey.

 We'll, there you are, and the fvins ny thing about it Is that when you check up you find there really ls Q boy named Bradford Greene, that ne really has written the music for q show that will open on Broadway soon and that he really is in the navy, fretting and fuming for fear he will be sent to Hong Kong or Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, just ct the time when he has arrived.

It all happened this way: Greene came to New York from Boston and, music under his arm, made the weary rounds of the the- atrical producers, supporting hirn- self by taking an $l8-a-week job ns night clerk in . hotel. Nobody seem- ed to want the score for Q musical comedy. So he thought it would be a good idea to enlist in the navy and study music at the Navy Music School in Washington under Lieu- tenant Charles Renter. In For Six Years Finally, he was snugly in the navy 1 for six years and after Q while he was earning $30 Q month and going l to the music school from 8 e. m, to { D. m. He liked the music school fine, hc said, and was figur- ! ing how long it would take him to become the band leader on some battleship.
 Then he received word that Miss Alice Alexander had agreed to pro- duce "Right of Way. When could Greene report for rehearsalse Well, there you are again. Greene went to Lieutenant Renter, who, he said was very sympathetic and arranged for him to get a leave so he could come to New York and play the piano while the chorus girls learn ed their steps.
 But could he get clear out of the navy? He put in an application for discharge. On october l8 the Bu- reau of Navigation oiiicially rejected 1t. Greene said.
 That brings us back to Miss Grace McDonald who was last seen bid ding Mr. BFaddf0rd Greene goodbye for his trip to Cleveland and hopinE that there is no truth In the old adage that c sailor has Q girl h every port.

WE WANT NO PIECE-NEAL JOB

Amid the discussion of undermining the Street Railway,
some talk has been heard that we should go at the thing
gradually. Those who advocate such a procedure DON'T
KNOW WHAT THEY r TALKING ABOUT!
y Pieoc-meal rehabilitation of the transit system is al impo5-
siblity for q number of reasons. Most important among
these il the fact that IT ANNOT BE FINANCED. Ex-
perts have told our city officials that there is only one eout"
for the City of Seattle. That is the proposal which will be on
the ballot next Tuesday. Financers throughout the country
have refused to consider any partial rehabilitation or piece
meal undermining for the simple reason that Seattle's Street
Railway is SO involved in debt that new equipment cannot be
purchased until the old debts are paid up. The present pro-
posal provides for this ~ecfunding of the old obligations and
at { saving of more than S3,0e0OO0.
In the second place, any piece-meal program that calls for
the purchase of new street cars would require the laying of
new rails. If some of the advocates of such a plan will tell
us where the city can get the 100000 necessary for new
rails, we might begin to think they have given the plan some
study. But none has come forward with any financing plan
whatsoever.
Suppose, by some miracle, these piecelmeal advocates
could show us at the last minute that their plan could be fin
anced. Then, this newspaper viii insist that our district be
the first to get the new equipment. We are not going to
wait months perhaps years for modern transportation
while other sections of the city are riding in speed and COM
fort on silent torney coaches. But the joker to that is:
Every other part of the city will be making the same de-
mand. It will be a battle-royal.
No, the job must be done all at once. IF for no other rea-
son, the fact that all equipment of the Street Railway is vh-
tually worn out compels complete replacement Immediately.
Our City Council and other officials have spent many
weary hours working out this thing. It is not something
someone is trying to sell us. It is something we ourselves
have gone out looking for and found.
Let's go to the polls March 8 and vote Eyes" on Proposit-
