There Should Be
No FoVorites
Before the Law
By Charles D. Rowe


Those in high position on whom
the dazzling white light Of cease
less publicity constantly shines
should ever be paragons of virtue
and right living. Despite their
wishes. they cannot escape beng
examples for the rest of the people
They are constantly placing them
selves open either to criticism CT
praise.
Much has been written concern
ing the recent auto accident IN
which Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt was
involved She dozed at the wheel
of her car. crashed into a passing
auto. and three or four persons. m
GLIDING Mrs Roosevelt were pam
fully but not seriously injured. Ac-
cording to press reports. no arrests
were made no fines imposed
That's bad-eXtremely bad.
In this connection We feel no
resentment against Mrs. Roosevelt.
But refusal Of officials to impose
the usual punishment required un-
der the law. because of the high
position of the one to blame IS not
only a miscarriage of justice. 1t
adds fuel to the flame of discon-
tent in our national life 1t pro-
vides argument for those who con
tend that administration of law IS
onesided-that the high and mighty
can get away with anything. On,
yeahl we hear them say in tone
of anger and disgust what would
have been done if a common. ordln-
arv bloke had done what Mrs R.
was guilty of"

MONTANA STATE TO

Missoula-U.D - Montana State

Sept. IS despite a meeting of deans
and housing officials at which a
two-week delay was suggested be
cause of the acute housing short

Mccain.
1t was revealed at the meeting
that Jumbo Hall" a huge dormi-
tory from the Kaiser west coast

an emergency to an already critical
housing shortage.

There most assuredly should be
no favoritism under the law. The
high and low should stand on an
equal footing in the courts Of JUS
tee. Because Mrs Roosevelt IS
the widow of a former popular
president and because she herself
is also highly popular is no reason
why she should escape the con-
sequences Of deed which, if {
had been committed by Mr. Com
mon Man, would most assuredly
have been punished
Ii Mrs Roosevelt had been wise
she would have walked into the
nearest police station, as soon as
she was able, would have admitted
her guilt and would have asked TO
be fined BY SO doing she would
have grown greatly in the estima-
ton Of the public and would not
have given aid 10 those who criti-
CHE our courts and laws and who
seek to undermine our form Of gov
eminent
The law should be no, respecter
of persons. High and low should
look alike in its eyes

Company of Edinburgh Golfers,
whose home is the Muirfield
Links, with minutes of a meeting
dating back to 1744. Links were
called links because in Scotland
the game was played over
stretches of land that linked the
water line of the seashore with
tillable lands further inland.
The game took hold slowly in
the American colonies, where
work and fighting necessarily
took precedence over sport. In
prerevolutionary times, the En-
cyclopedia Americana relates,
residents of the district which is
now Albany, N. Y, then under
Dutch control, were fined for
playing golf in the streets.
Not until about so years ago
did the game get firmly establish
ed here. In 1888, John Reid of
Yonkers, N. Y, founded the old
est golf club in the United States.
After numerous changes of adj
dress, it is still in existence today
at Mt. Hope, N. Y.
What is now the United States
Golf Association was organized
and incorporated in February,
1895. The handful of clubs which
existed at that time has since
grown to more than 5000, and
the investment in their golf prop
critics totals around $720,000, 900.

Democracy
~ = M~rvNv
BY J. T. McEyoY

Al NeWsfeaturea
BUENOS AIRES. - The mill
tary touch still prevails in Ar
gentina's new government but
the atmosphere of dictatorship
which existed for the past three
years has disappeared.
AS far as the eye can see, Ar
gentina is as complete a democ-
racy as exists anywhere in the
world. A congress is functioning
for the first time since 1912, and
President Juan d. Peron has
been emphatic in his declarations
that democracy is the only form
of government and it will be
practiced within the framework
Of the constitution.
Censorship of the press which
disappeared in the last year of
the Farrell government has not
been resumed and both foreign
correspondents and domestic
newspapermen have been free to
handle news critical of the adj
ministration. Radio stations, how
ever, are still subject to rigid
control and when the govern
ment deems fit they must tie in
with the official station and
broadcast important political
speeches and events.
The street fights between Ma
tionalists, one of the groups
backing Peron in the February
election, and student groups who
opposed him are things of the
past.
Although lifting of the state of
siege which lasted nearly three
years theoretically restored all
constitutional rights, political
parties have not regained COM
plete liberty. They are not ham,
pered in holding meetings, but
the imposition of the so-called
statute of political parties''
makes them subject to consider
able control by the administra-
ton.
Likewise, the new government
has nationalized the Central
Bank, the bank of issue of the
republic, and controls financial
markets, insurance companies,
manufacturers associations and
and stock exchanges by inter
vention."
Persons who had hoped that
when Peron quit the army to be-
come a civilian candidate for the
presidency they were seeing the
last of military rule have been
disappointed. Peron, himself, was
reincorporated into active army
service and promoted to the
rank of brigadier general a few
days before taking the oath of
office. Although he has many
civilian assistants, the president
is usually surrounded by military
and naval aides.

Expert Says Rationing
Made Swedes Healthier

STOCKHOLM. - (AP) - Does
moderate food rationing have a
favorable effect on public health?
It seems to have done so in
Sweden, where Prof. Gunnar
Nystrom of Uppsala University
claims the Swedish people never
were healthier than during the
war.
/ In the Swedish Medical Maya
zine the professor disclosed that
deaths sank from an average of
IL per 1000 population in the
Thirties to, 80 in 1912, when RAJ
tons were lowest. Maladies like
hemorrhage and arteriosclerosis
caused by alterations in the
blood vessels showed an abrupt
decline.
Nystrom stated his opinion that
the sharpened rationing which
started 1912 led to diet well adj
justed for people with blood-ves-
sci diseases.
