COURT MARTIALING THE
TAX PAYERS ftii

Summing up extended comment on the
congressional investigation of tax lodging,
Walter Lippman directs attention to the
fact that the alleged investigation is a
mass movement against the heavier tax
payers of the country, in which good bad
and indifferent citizens are to be herded
together and an effort made to smear"
them through the investigation, for politi-
cal purposes.
All that is necessary in order for citi-
zen to be fair target for this political
sniping is that he shall be sufficiently veal
thy and prominent to make it worthwhile
to ballyhoo his case in an effort to cover
up the mistakes and failures Of the ma
tional administration and make the public
believe the federal deficit and failure to
balance the budget is condition directly
traceable to tax lodging by wealthy citi-
Zens.
Referring to the tax paying citizens who
are to be stood up and shot at in this in
vestigation, Lippman says:
These individuals are to be tried not in q
court of law before an independent Judge by
jury of their peers and with the protection of
counsel and the rules of evidence, but by
drumhead court martial of politicians enforcing,
not the law of the land but their own ideas of
what is ethical and patriotic and in accord with
"the spirit of the law
Is it surprising that throughout the country
there exists already deep suspicion that the
objective is not law enforcement and revenue
but political propaganda designed to create pop
ular prejudice and strengthen the adminstra-
tons weakened political position? For is there
not a very remarkable resemblance between the
technique of DIR. Goebbers sudden concern with
immoral practices in the monasteres and this
sudden move to pick out here and there
spicuous rich men and lynch them without bene-
fit of law. ESQ.,
For my part, do not like the kind of gov
eminent, and if any one wants to believe that
i say this because wish to protect rich tax
dodgers, he is welcome to say SO, but it will not
be true The essence of the matter is that this
is not the way to conduct lawful government
and the complete confusion of the presidents
indignation in humping together unlawful and
lawful acts is the proof that he is not thinking
of the law but of something else. &C..
This newspaper agrees with Walter
Lippman that it does not like that kind of
government. We believe that when the
public fully understands the conditions,
millions of citizens, high and low, rich and
poor-all citizens who are decent and hon.
est-are going to conclude they do not like
that kind of government. 49,.
If wealthy citizens can be court mar.
tailed in an alleged tax lodging investiga,
ton, the same tactics may ultimately be
applied to the poor and those in the fnan-
ciaI middle class. That would be "hoss
of another color" for host of citizens.

CON of a professor of law, Gott-
- fried Wilhelm Won Leibnitz
only naturally directed his studies
In that profession. He was born
in Leipzig, Germany, in 1916, and
qualified for his law degree year
before he could get it legally. I'M
mediately he set out to reform the
Corpus Juris," or body of the law.
But his interest quickly veered
toward q search for the source OF
mans soul, and an effort to ex-
plain Gods trust in man. Out OF
this came Leibnitz's basic philoso-
ply, that the soul, like all the
senses of man, was born with a
person, and that it is the con-
seriousness of its presence that is
acquired later by education and
experience.
In mathematics, as in philoso-
phy and law, Leibnitz became
world famous. He improved and
added to the study Of calculus, or
the mathematics of reasoning, and
to analytical geometry. In 100,
he became chief organizer and first
president of the Berlin Academy
Of Sciences. He died, in l7l6, at

A Sense of HumOr.

.DAMON RUNYON, who, being
~ wise, should know better, re-
opens the issue of whether many
people have a sense of humor. This
provokes somebody to inquire what
is humor, anyhow?
I stand by this definition: Humor
is tragedy standing on its head with
its pants torn.
Lots of folks think sense of hui
NOR is predicated on the ability to
laugh at other folks, which is wrong.
A real sense of humor is based on
our ability to laugh at ourselves.
You have to say, not as Puck did,
"What fools these mortals be-" but,
"What fools we mGtals be-
That's why few women have true
sense of humor. Usually woman,
even witty woman, takes herself
so seriously, she can never regard
herself unseriously.

High wind and water last night and early this morning brought back anxiety and fears, that some of the already damaged buildings and foundations would undergo further destruction.
 Many persons remained up dur ing the night watching the action of the waves as they beat with great force, close to their back doors.
 While not as severe as the Tuesday night storm, last nights blow still carried enough force to further tear the jetties apart and generally wreck more damage.
 Late this afternoon it appeared to have gone done considerable and the indication that tonight the storm would be "hum-dinger" , seemed to be dissipated.
 However, U. s. Weatherman Ross Dobbs at Nome, warned that the general conditions were un- certain and variable, and that stormy weather may yet continue for Nome.
