COUNTIES WILL RECEIVE
PART OF AUTO FINES

Every motorist who is required to
appear before any county trial magis-
trate, will, whether he is convicted or
not, indirectly enrich that county to
the extent of $500.
An amendment passed by the Leg
islature and which became effective
Monday last directs that the Commits
sioner of Motor Vehicles shall "remit
to the County Commissioners of each
county the sum of So for every case
involving a charge of violation of the
motor vehicle laws in said county"
Formerly county commissioners
have received the So fee only when
a conviction was obtained on a traf-
fic charge. In all, the county COM
missioners are expecting to receive
nearly 100000 next year from the
Commissioner of Motor Vehicles.

BERLIN JAIL OFFERS AN
EASY WAY OF ESCAPE

A man accosted Worcester County
Sheriff J. William Hall, on a Berlin
street, last week and identified HIM
self as William Henry West, Negro,
of Accomack County.
Puzzled a bit, Sheriff Hall nodded
a greeting.
"But you don't understand" insist
ed the man, "I'm the prisoner that
was in the Berlin city Jail until Tues
day morning and 1 insist I didn't es-
cape. The door was left open by
someone and 1 just walked away"
The Sheriff still was skeptical, but
he took the mans word and took him
in custody.
Trial Magistrate Fred A. Culver
imposed a fine of 81 and costs upon
West, who was charged with disorder
ly conduct after the State declined
to offer testimony.
How the man fled the Berlin Jail re
mains a mystery.

QUESTION AS TO
WHAT DEMOCRACY
is in AMERICA

The American Civil Liberties Union
as defender of the rights Of labor, has
decided to undertake study of just
how much real democracy prevails
in American labor unions, according
to John Haynes Holmes, chairman of
the board.
Following the receipt of numerous
complaints from members of labor
unions barred from employment or
otherwise disciplined because they
disagreed with leaders policies, the
Civil Liberties Union will survey the
situation coincident with an inquiry
into the civil liberties of teachers and
students in schools and colleges. A
committee to explore the question
is being appointed by Mr.. Holmes
and DR.. Roger N. Baldwin, Executive
Director.
Morris L. Ernst, counsel for the
organization, said that in his opin-
ion movements to limit freedom of
opinion and action in labor unions
were likely to develop whenever Com
munist leaders of such unions found
their control slipping.
AS an instance of the abridgment
of democratic rights, he cited the re-
vision of the charter of Harry
Bridges International Longshore-
mems and Warehousemen's Union as
calculated to centralize disciplinary
power in it's officers and to provide
machinery for ousting members at
tempting to discredit officers before
the public.
He warned that the ousting of
members from trade unions was a
serious matter today, especially in
industries where the closed shop pre-
vailed, since loss of union member
ship was equivalent to loss of mean
of livelihood.

Mrs. Willing, had been to Nassawa-
dox to take home an employee and
was returning to her own place on
