ganQa!
I suggest that the CITY
of Salem, on behalf of its
Inhabitants, past and pre-
sent, file with the MaSsa-
chusetts Legislature a Re-
solve memorializing the
Government of the United
States to take such action
as may be necessary to
Liberate the Witches from
Legal Limbo and the City
from Historic He'll!
AS a practical matter, con-
tinued individual effort to get
Justice for the Witches on
Beacon Hill will get us mo-
where. A concerted commu-
nifty effort might tell q diff
ferent story, In any event,
the attendant publicity would
nave considerable promotlonal
value for Salem.
Like Shakespeare says,
How far that little candle
throws its beams! So shines
a good deed in a naughty
world"
Besides, why should Salem
sleep on laurels of Sin and
Infamy that were not really
OF its making? Why not do
the Right Thing by the
Witches, and by Salem?
I'm sorry to have waxed so
long-winded on what must
seem a dull subject but I
hope you agree with me that
an Emancipation Proclama-
ton for Salem's much-malig-
ned witches needs to be writ
ten, and can be written.

Employers Are Urged
to Hire Handicapped

State employment Offices
found jobs for 7O41 handicap
ped persons during the twel-
ve-month period ending Aug
ust 81 according to the Di-
vision of Employment Securi-
ty, SO of which were in the
EVerett-Malden area.
Chief beneficiaries of the
states special job-finding SER
vice for the disabled were the
war veterans who got 1892 of
the available openings.
The number of handicap
ped persons placed this year
was slightly less than in the
same period last year when
1925 were put to work. The
decline took place in spite
of the fact that total Job
placements during the same
twelve months increased from
250,097 in 1854 to 259,569 in
1855. 1t is the first time since
Nationil Employ the Physical
ly Handicapped Week was
first proclaimed by the Pre-
sident in 1945 that handicap
ped placements have not
moved upward with an in
crease in total placements.
Employ the Physically Han
dicapped Week is being OBJ
served locally this week. Any
person who employs one or
more personnel is asked to
consider hiring a handicapped
person.
Dewey G. Archambault, di-
vision director, said that these
placement figures point up
sharply the need for more eff
fective education about the
skillS and abilities which the
handicapped have to offer to
industry. ut doesn't make
sense, he said, "That an in
crease in available jobs
shouldn't be reflected in in
creased opportunities for those
with physical impairments.
This is particularly true
when we consider that many
of these job seekers became
disabled in the service OF
their country and that most
of them have some special
skills which are being wasted
/ due to lack of job opportuni-
ties"

Grated, so, naturally, neither
wants the glory" of credit!
Both are satisfied to let the
Salem Witches lie unburied
in Potter Fields of Status
Quo.
Although the country's fore
most legal minds concede that
the Witch Courts were thor
oughly illegal, there is the
question of whose Law has
been violated.
My own opinion is that no
Massachusetts Legislature
since 1893 could any more
set aside Witch Court Find
ings than 1t could legally
amend Gods Ten Command
ments. The Witch Courts were
a violation of Royal Charter
and Prerogative rather than
Legislative Authority. Only
the British Crown had, or
has, the right to deal with
offenseS peculiarly against
the British Crown!
When the United States
became legally independ-
ent of Britain in 1888, the
lawful actions of colonial
courts and legislatures be-
came a part of American
jurisprudence. Most of
these lawful actions were
affirmed; a few, discard
ed.
But, the Salem Witch
COnrts were never lawful,
according to British Law.
They are still the Brats
of British Royalty. No
amount Of wrongs can
make right. What is in
trinsicalIy wrong cannot
be made legal. Only the
British Crown can expiate
its own mistakes.
The British Government is
naturally loathe, at this late
date, to take steps which
might be misinterpreted as
meddling in the affairs of a
friendly foreign power. Uncle
Sam, by the same token, hest
tates to question the wisdom
of judicial action taken when
this country was a Crown
| Colony.
Does this mean that Salem
and the Witches must scorch
In the hot fires Of Legal Linn
DO until Judgment Day? Why
should it? This Gordian Knot
could easily be united at the
Foreign Minister Level, or
under UN auspices, by COM
mon assent. Better yet, Queen
Elizabeth could simplify
things, and manufacture good
will, by promulgating a Gen
eral Amnesty and Exoneration
for all witches of every Eral
Our present UN Ambassa-
dor, Henry Cabot Of Beverly,
