WASHINGTON. June 1S-The
w Supreme Court is running
around in legal circles which
seem to become deeper and
deeper.
The confusion of law which
has been engendered by its
hardfought, close decisions first
caused weary head-shaking in
the legal profession. Now il is
getting ChuCkles.
What would have happened

and he had appointed - justices

been mctcd out eight 10 seven.
ON some legally confusing oc-
CaSiOnS. the court has ruled that

LABOR IS UNDER FIRE

The worker today is faced with a sitl-
alton, which if not corrected, will cut the
living standards of working men and wo-
men beyond the bounds of all human en-
durance. AS a consequence of the failure
of workers exercising their right to vote,
they are in grave danger of destruction
by anti-Labor legislation!

House Bills IS and 1913, both introduced by
Representative Earl M. French of Deleoare
County, A COUNTY THAT HAS NO LABOR
UNIONS!
House Bill Is proposes amendments to
the Ohio State Guard law, under the de-
ceptive description: "A bill to correct
minor errors in the Ohio State Guard
law" It is an anti-Labor measure of the
worst sort. 1t proposes to create a mill
tary reserve" in addition to the present
Ohio State Guard. (The Ohio State Guard
is in existence only during the period that
the Ohio National Guard is modified into
the Federal Army ....
This military reserve is to function only
in the locality where its members live o.
in Immediately adjacent territory. Such
a military reserve would not be under reg
ular training or discipline, with the safe
guards against IawIessness which are es-
tablished for the Ohio National Guard
and the Ohio State Guard.
The bill calls for repeal of too Of the most
important sections of the Ohio Military Code,
namely:

from enlistment as a body, and

Under this bill a corporation faced by a

could have the Governor temporarily mo-
bilize an armed force to destroy the Un-

erans' post, a rifle club or an a~rtificially
created organization with q name like
"Commandos Anonymous made up of
anti-Labor people who could be bought
with gifts and donations paid for exclu-
sively by the corporation. The bill would
also permit company guards to be enlisted

them temporarily turned into military

Tarzan, de- spite civilized clothes, b title S through thrills, leaps from the Brooklyn Bridge. upsets court room and finally wins back the boy. Many comedy sequences in- volve his struggles with modern clothes and bewildering customs of civilization.

JUNEAU LANDMARK
 BEING TORN DOWN

One of Juneau's landmarks, an old house with history, is today being dismantled and torn down. The property belongs to the J. F. Maloney estate and is located on Third between Franklin and Sew ard streets.
 According to John Beck, presi- dent of the. First National Bank, whose home directly adjoins the structure, the relic was standing way back in 98, at which time it was the swanky law offices of J. F. Maloney and J. H. Cobb. After being vacant for many years, the office was given an addition and remodeled, giving service as a pri- vate residence for a number of years. Today, however, it has lost it's charm and Grant Baldwin has been given the contract to strip it down.

 These observers pointed out that the renewed bombing offensive against Sicily strongly pointed to that island as one of the first on the Allied invasion schedule.
 The reported sealing of the bor- der between Turkey and Syria might well be a precaution to cover a secret military movement. Many observers believe Turkish troops may soon enter the war alongside of the Allies.
