The bill proposes that any U. S.

attorney or agent in any case Fin

the service of the United States:

The obvious next step would be
to require lawyer-members of
Congress to disclose fees from and
identity of all clients whom they

in many cases might be no end

THE STATE: MASTER OR SERVANT?
(By BRUCE CATION

The new Labor decree" promulgated
by the German government Is something
every American ought To- have a look at. II
illustrates perfectly the difference between
. free society. as We in America visualize
il and a society in which freedom IS sub
ordinated 10 some other end.
This decree, briefly, states that IFS aim
is "to insure n supply Of workers for any
tasks politically important TO the state It
renders every German citizen liable to con
scription for any job which the government
may care 10 give him. A citizen so CON
acrpted is guaranteed against any loss Of
wages, and his old job must be held open
for him; nevertheless, the fact Of cOnscrip-
ton remains, and the upshot is that any
citizen may at any time be moved about as
he government sees fit.
100 Now the one big issue which such a law
raises ~ simply this: does the state exist
FOR the individual or the individual for
the state? The way in which any society
tries TO answer that question lays bare that
:" society's whole philosophy Of life, its whole
conception Of the place the ordinary man,
his happiness and his weIl-being should
occupy in the general scheme of things
Any dictatorship which is based on any
thing higher than a Latin American gen
eralissimo's quest for personal power has
TO Justify its existence on the argument
that II serves the mass Of the people better
than the mass could serve itself. Only so
can 1t rationali2c its Interference with per
s0nal liberty.
Yet this argument Immediately leads
one into deep water For a dictatorship
not only assumes TO act for the masses; it
also assumes the right to say what actions
are to be taken and what goal is to be
sought. 1t is bound TO elevate that abstrac-
ton, the state-in other words, tself-into
IN end in itself, whole that is greater
, than the sum Of it's parts.
Now ii ought to be obvious that this is a
direct reversal of everything that we in
! America have always thought about GOV
. ernmentS. To our way of thinking any
D. form of government, from a board of town
ship trustees on up, exists solely To- serve
, the citizens. II has no existence apart
q from them. 1t is their agent and it cannot
i, conccivably be anything more than that.
so when we run into something like this
new German labor law we get the cIcarest
possible picture of the difference between
Tree society and dictatorship
In Tree society, the state exists for the
individual; IN dictatorship, the individual
exists for the state.
In the one, the ordinary human beings
chance tor happiness is the dominant con.
Slderatlon; in the other, it is no considcrn-
tiOn at all.
we can do our democracy no srcaisr
service than by getting the Distinction he.

USELESS, NOT HARMLESS

More than $500 years ago,
PcricleS, famed Athenian states
man, said: can Athenian citizen
does not neglect the state be-
cause he takes care Of his own
household; and even those of US
who are engaged in business have
a very fair idea Of politics. We
alone regard a man who takes no
interest in public affairs, not as
a harmless, but as useless char
actcT."
Probably no one could have
made Pcricles believe that in the
year Of our Lord 1898 during the
month Of June, in the national
capitol of the United States, Sem
ator Barley would stand up in
the senate and plead passionately
in favor Of playing politics with
WPA funds and WPA workers
because state political machines
were playing politics with state
funds with state political workers.
"No. no! That could not be-" Per-
icles would have declared, "In g.
300 wears government will have
progressed; it will not have de-
generated"

SHEEPISH IN COURT: On the

street you may slap the genial
mayor on the back and call him
Al. and the accommodating chief
of police on the hip and say, "HeI-
10. Otis" but everything changes
when an officer leaves a little red
tag on your auto for one of the
10 motor grievances the city
might hold against you. It's "Your
Honor" and Chief in court with
the jokes left off. Yessir. it's no
joke when called to the mayor )
court. Things look more solemn
than common. If you don't believe
it, leave your car parked too long
and let the check-up man tag you.
Business houses insist that the
city provide lots Of parking space
in the business district for shop
pers and out-of-town people.
Parking rules are the only cure.
An hours parking is permitted
in the business districts, but bus
mess men are caught exceeding
this, and to the court they go II
the check-up man comes along
and he is coming frequently these
dayS-so much so that city resi-
dents are learning to park else
where except for brief periods.
Chief of Police Otis Powers says
it is painful, very diStasteful in
deed, TO tag cars Of good citizens,
but business men insist on space
for shoppers and this is the only
way out, he says.
10 COMMANDMENTS: There
are 10 traffic rules named on the
court summons attached to car
when infringements are noted {:
They read as follows:
|. Left hand turn.
2. Making U. turn.
3. Double parking.
4. Open muffler.
5. Speeding.
6. Entering on red light.
z. Parking overtime.
8. Parking outside lines.
9. Parking wrong side of street.
10. Parking at "no parking"
sign.
Learn and obey the 10 rules if
you don't want to be decorated
with one of these blood-red, con-
spicuous, highly uncomplimentary
tags. 1t simply makes you wish
you hadn't.
