II. Flanagan. The current

the witness chair.
Mr.. Harrison's probings met
a chilly response by the Transit
ofiicial. The company has re-
quested that tokens and the
permit be done away with al
together. and that a 20-cent
straight cash fare be substi-
tuted instead. A rise In the
school fare from rs cents 10

weekly pass plus 10 cents q

earning slack the company
is trying TO overcome in order

Permit Gains shown
He held this position despite
records produced by Mr.. Harri-
son showing that weekly permit
sales have substantially in
creased in the last three years.
The figures introduced by the
attorney showed s29,572 for the
year ending May 81, 1856;

counsel by the American Civil
Liberties Union.
Based on two technical points
the writ charged:
/. That Municipal Judge
Thomas j. Scalley erred in re-
fusing to permit williams. who
has a 25-year criminal record.
to plead guilty to q drunk
charge. That action. the writ
contends. prevented Williams
from having his case heard on
q civil basis before q jury to
determine his sanity.
2. That at no time during
Williams many court appear
ances since his arrest last
February has any evidence been
introduced to show that he was
insane or incompetent at the
time Of the offense.
Double Jeopardy Claimed
A third point made by Mr..
Silard was that in pleading
guilty Williams had placed him
self in jeopardy and therefore
he could not be tried a second
time on the intoxication count.
williams, shortly after his
arrest, appeared before Judge
Scalley and pleaded guilty. The
plea was accepted. However,
several days later a ques-
ton Of insanity arose and Will
liamS was hailed back into
court.
On this second appearance
Judge Scalley set aside the
guilty plea entered by Williams
and then found that there was
some question as to Williams
competency to stand trial. He
ordered Williams sent to the
hospital for mental observa-
ton.
Wins on Appeal
williams. still contending he
was not insane and that he
wanted to plead guilty, carried
his case to the United States
Court Of Appeals. The appel
late court earlier this month
ruled that Williams could not
be sent to the hospital on q
mere finding that he is Of UNI
sound mind. The upper court
held that Williams had to be
freed unless Municipal Court
determined he was mentally
incompetent to stand trial or
unless civil proceedings for his
commitment we're begun.
williams, therefore, was
brought into court last Fri
day. Judge Scalley then found
that williams was not guilty by

He remained firm on another
point: d. c. Transit should have

You may be feeling optimistic
because of the drop in unem-
ployment In April and the Presi-
dents statement that this Is
emphatic evidence" the busi-
ness decline is fattening out.
The recession well may be
reaching bottom-but the evi-
dence is definitely not In the

Next month you may be feel

basis. a sharp spurt in unem-
ployment In June-July is abb

Unnecessarily and unwisely.
the President Of the United
States has shocked informed
circles and laid himself open
to embarrassing criticism be-
cause of his casual comments
about the latest employment

Here are a few simple illu-
strations Of what / mean.
Yule Spending Cited
In the weeks before Christ
mas it is normal for you to
crowd into the stores, shop for
gifts, spend extra amounts Of
money. That's true in boom
times and bad.
Okay then. Since you spend
extra money during the Christ
mas season and so do millions
of others. it's just normal for
retail sales to climb sharply
from week to week in that
period. A simple plus sign in
sales from week to week doesn't
mean anything.
What has meaning is the
amount of the plus sign. When
seasonally adjusted. plus in
retail sales in December may
stay plus" or actually may
signal downturn in buying.
AS another simple illuStra-
ton, consider this. In June it
is normal for an army of
students to pour into the work
force.
Okay then. Since hundreds
of thousands Of new workers
are seeking jobs in summer, it's
just normal for unemployment
to climb sharply from week to
week in that period. A simple
plus sign in joblesSness from
week to week doesn't mean
anything.
What has meaning is the
duration of the plus sign. When
seasonally adjusted, a plus in

may stay plus" or actually
may signal a boom.
Just about every key indi-
Gator must be placed against
seasonal trends before II can
be interpreted properly.
In these weeks. for instance,
you should expect industrial
productions vital indicator

production normally declines
right through July.
Construction Expanding
In these weeks you should
expect housing and construc-
tion In general 10 jump. An
is normal as the
weather improves.
In these weeks you should
expect retail sales 10 be good,
Sales always are pushed up by
Mothers Day buying, June
graduations, June weddings,
the excellent weather from
coast TO coast.
And now let's get back to
the unemployment figures, be-
cause they are making and will
make the blacklist headlines.
Between February and April
unemployment normally de-
clines about 100000. That's
simply a seasonal trend.
This year, between Febru-
airy and April. unemployment
dropped only about 50.000-

employment to ~ per cent,
highest since before World
War II.
In May unemployment will
drop again. It's a normal move
In June unemployment
will Jump. Normal. In July un-
employment will 60 still higher
There is some evidence that
the recession is approaching
bottom. But viewed on a sea-
sonal basis, the evidence is not
yet in the jobless figures. and
we don't help ourselves one bit
by pretending it is.
Certainly not one informed
person in this country has been
fooled by any claim to the
contrary.
