Grand Juries Keep


has other important duties to per
form, which will be hereinafter men
toned; and in case you shall FIND
any public abuses existing in this
county, you have full power to call
witnesses and officials before you and
investigate the same.
The great purpose Of grand juries
is to act as a bulwark to the liberty
Of the people and also to expose
crime. 1t is a very old institution and
the oath which you have taken has
been preserved in practically its pres
ent form for centuries.
Most of the matters which you will
investigate will be those presented to
you by the States Attorney. If you
find the evidence sufficient in a par
ticular case, you will find what is
called a presentment, which is a brief
statement of the crime attested by
the foreman. After this is done, the
States Attorney will prepare a for
nal Indictment and will then present
it to you; and if you find this indict-
ment by a vote of twelve or more of
your body, your foreman will en-
endorse the same, True Bill" and 1t
will be returned to the Court.
Everything you do is necessarily
secret Persons should never know in
advance of Indictment that they are
Icing Investigated by a grand jury.
You will not discuss any matters oc-
curing in the grand jury room with
anyone, except members of your own
body.
You will sometimes have cases
Il ~, ,,,;n Ho ~, IOt,b+ &
to whether to find a presentment or
indictment. These are what are gen
orally known as bOrder-line cases.
They should, however, be as thor
Cughly investigated as any other
cases. You will have to use your own
good judgment as good businessmen
as to whether or not from the evil
dence the accused has actually COM
mitted the crime; and if you feel
the evidence is insufficient or that
the case is inspired by motives of i'll
will or malice on the part of the pros
ccuting witnesses, you will, of course,
dismiss the case. If you believe after
a full hearing of the evidence that the
crime has actually been committed
and that if you, sitting as petit jul
ror, would vote for a conviction, then
it will be your duty to vote for pre-
sentiment and indictment.
You, of course, know that you do
not try cases, as that duty is i'm
posed upon the petit jury selected at
this same term Of Court.

MoterioI Costs and Price Relief

Wages and materials are the great costs of
operating our business-together they con-
sumo all but few cents of every dollar the
Company takes in. Wages are obviously
going to be highland nobody knows just
how high material costs will go.
In the face of rising costs of materials, the
Company does not see how it can pay the
wage increases recommended by a Govern
ment fact finding board until it has definite
and satisfactory assurance from the Govern
ment that reasonable price relief will be
granted to the Company within a reasonable
period of time. This matter is of such i'm
portance that it will not be discussed here,
but will be covered by future advertisements
devoted to both prices and profits.
Speaking for our dealers and ourselves, we
can assure you that no customer is more
eager than we are to resume production We
are doing and shall continue to do everything
in our power to bring about fair settlement
as soon as possible.

earnings in the ten plants, not including

When the strike began, negotiations were
broken off by the Union on the issue of com
pulsory union membership. The Company
has no desire to weaken the Union, 1t recog-
nizes certain reasonable needs of the Union.
But the Company does oppose compulsory
unionism. 1t feels strongly that an en-
ploye's membership should be a matter of
his own choice
