THE RIGHT TO PAINT YOUR
OWN HOME
. tBy BRUCE CATIONS UJE

Union sympathizers, union unsympathiz-
ers, and all sorts of folks who just aren't
interested particularly IN unions, will 90
well TO cast glance at Cleveland. .s,n's
For some time the spraying of varnish
over newly-painted houses has been almost
a daily occurrence, Investigation showed
that most of these incidents were trace
able to rivalry between two sets, of build
ing trades unions. ... ~ were race
Distraught inquiries to the daily papers
from anxious people who were contemplate
ing little amateur painting of. their own
houses brought out this fact: .,.... - 4.
That for months the Painters District
Council actually had been issuing permits
to citizens allowing them to paint their
own homes without interference, provided
they could first show that they couldn't at
ford. to hire painters. ~e ...,
Painters union officials replied that
greed on the part of well-off property
owners was causing them to try to avoid
paying union wages" by doing the job
themselves. 1t was the painters union job
to see that such work went to union paint
ers. and this it was trying to do by its per-
nit system. -,
That seems reasonable enough on its
face, But it is mighty dangerous princi-
pie, if carried to its logical conclusion.
Suppose you want to adjust the carbu-
rotor on the old bus some morning, and
find that you can't do it without first APP
plying for permission of the garage-me-
chanics union and convincing them that
you can't afford to patronize garage.
=, Suppose you want to fix up those tricky
front steps,, and find yourself in similar
trouble with the carpenters union.
, Suppose the window-washers' union de-
cided that home windows come under
their jurisdiction as we'll as downtown Of
flee building windows, and that you'd bet
ter not wash your own-or else! .,
Absurd? And yet in any of those cases
you would be robbing union men of work
they are qualified and ready to do.
~, Perhaps it is not too much to say that
anyone who can afford it ought to throw
such work to men to whom it means liv-
ing: 1t is certainly proper for union to
try to get as much of that kind of work for
its members as it legitimately can.
-. But there is something else involved
here. 1t is the right of man to do what
he likes with his own, Unions will best
serve themselves and their members by re-
membering those rights,
The right to paint your own house, to
decide for yourself whether you can afford
to hire painters is symbolical, perhaps, of
the kind Of rights that must be fought for
in detail and preserved if we are to have
anything worth while left of our diminish
ing personal liberties.
You may never want to paint your house
yourself. Few people do. But everyone
ought to be interested in the right to do it,
For it is by little infringements, little en-
croachments like this, always with a reas-
enable argument behind them, that per-
sonal freedom is Clipped away. And eter-
mar vigilance Is the price of liberty.

LIQUOR. ACT REPEALS OTHER LAWS

" Attorney General A. A. F. Seawell has ruled that
the adoption of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act
repeats all prior liduor laws in counties that vote
to establish liquor stores while the burlington Act
remains in force in all other counties.
In other. words, when county votes to estab-
lsh LIQUOR stores, it has no temperance laws. Of
course ii is under the ABC Board of Control. To
vote for liquor stores means that liquor flows free
y into the county and the officers are helpless to
do much -. t. Az, ISL
When county votes to establish liquor stores Il
means that at least three men will be given fatjobs
at good salaries, to be paid from the profits on
hqper. E@siFts W., .5sYs., ~ 4 81
The best, way to handle the liquor problem is to
enforce the burlington Act and keep liquor out
The farther away liquor is, the less danger it is
The good people Of this state and nation will
rise up soon and stamp out the liquor traffic The
sooner the better. 81, ~ e 's.et7 a,s, ',~c. W 50

QUITS SINGLES
SKATING TESTS
Nothing More to Win and

DIV ERNEsT nARCELLA

(Uni ed Press STAFF Correspondent
Winchester, Mass, March 2.--(UP)
Brunette, brown-eyed Maribel Y.
(for Yerxa) Vinson, Americas No.
/ woman figure skater, revealed to
the United Press today that she is
quite definitely" through with COM
petitive singles competition.
This disclosure came only three
days after she had captured the
North American womeri's singles
title here after two unsuccessful at
tempts. And therein lay one of the
answers to her decision to retire
from the singles.
i've been wanting to win the
North American title ever since !
first entered senior competition
when I was IA years old" she said.
THAT ambition was realized Satur-
day night. I can't win anything
more on thiss ide OF the water. SO
why keep on? After all, I've been
skating In national and interna-
tional competition for 10 years. And
that's enough"
The charming American queen OF
the silver blades will abdicate after
having won the national singles title
nine times in past 10 years. The
only year she didn't win the cham
pionship was in 1894. And she
wasn't even entered that year, be-
ing In Europe for the world cham
pionships.
She has been skating since she
was four years old. (She's now 25.)
At IL, Miss Vinson entered the ma
tional juniors. She won her first
national title when she was 18-at
which age she first entered Euro
pean competition.
Americas ace woman skater won
the national pairs title six times
the North American pairs cham
pionship once Tin 1885, and repre-
scented the United States In the last
three Clympics.
Her best year In international
competition was In 1923 when she
placed second to Sonia Henie for
the worlds singles crown. Next best
was 1882 when she gained third
place.
Figure skating Is a heritage with
Miss Vinson. Her father, Thomas
M. Vinson, now a Boston attorney
was star In his own right. Back
IN 1893. he placed second in the
North American mems singles COM
petition.
For the past two and half years
she has been writing women's sports
for a New York daily. There Is the
second answer to her retirement de-
cision.
ooh, I'll still do pairs, four and
exhibitions" Miss Vinson said. "But
no more singles. That's quite def
mite. 1t takes hours and hours OF
practice. And I'm In the newspaper
business now, you know"
Then, with q gay laugh:
III skate less, I'll be better
newspaper woman"
