DAMAGES: When Harpo
Marx began his stage career
with his brothers, he owned
an old. beaten-up harp which
he had bought secondhand.
He longed to buy a new in
strument. but he could not
afford even the down pay
ment.
When the brothers we're

A couple Of railroad law

claims. It suddenly struck
Harpo that opportunity was
staring him in the face.
When the lawyers ap-
preached him, he cried out
Historically:
MY poor harp! Look at it,
ruined beyond repair!"
The lawyers took one look
at the instrument and agreed
that 1t was in deplorable con-
dition. Would $3.50 be ample
compensation, they asked.
Harpo almost fell, grabbing
the money. The following
day. he was the proud owner

Commitment
OfWiIIiums
Held Proper

The District contended yes
terday that Dallas o. williams
was properly committed to st.
Elizabeths Hospital. despite the
fact he did not raise insanity
as a defense.
Williams counsel has APP
pealed Municipal Court Judge
Thomas c. Scalley's ruling that
Williams was not guilty Of an
intoxication charge by reason
of insanity. Williams attempt
to plead guilty and avoid deten-
ton at the hospital was refused
by the Judge, who had found
the bad Man Of Swampoodle"
competent to stand trial.
The brief fled in the Munich
lpal Court Of Appeals by the
Corporation Counsel's once
yesterday, concluded that the
Judges finding. when consid-
cred against the background of
appellants (Williams') long
history Of crime and conflne-
ment In penal and mental in
stitutions, must be considered
an expression of the enlight-
ened view that the thrust OF
the criminal law is always in
the direction Of moral culpabil-
lily. In other words, an accused
should be punished for a GRIM
inal act only If he is morally
responsible for its commission. y
The District brief quoted q
recent District Court opinion
that Williams had accumulated
". an almost incredible rec
ord since 1899 Of criminal
charges and convietions. in
cluding manslaughter. assault
and battery, assault with in
tent to kill, shooting with in
tent to kill, assault with q
pistol and other crimes Of vic.
lence. :"

liams' counsel that the defend.
ant was deprived of constitu.
tional rights by the judges &C.

Dear Bill:
Dear Joe:
In recent press conferences !
have stressed the point that in
the current economic situation,
certain kinds Of governmental
measures. including the ac-
celeration of planned and need
ed public improvements, can
be helpful in promoting in
creased growth of the economy.
I have also stressed this
point: The course of our huge,
complex economy mainly de-
ponds upon what individual
citizens do-upon their crea-
tivity, their productivity, their
initiative and enterprise, and
the Millions Of economic deci-
sions which they freely make
each day. The proper relation
of Government to the growth
and vigor of such an economy
must necessarily be to stimu-
late private production and
employment, not to substitute
public spending for private
spending, nor to extend public
domination over private ac-
tivity.
I am concerned over the sud-
den upsurge Of pump-priming
schemes, such as the setting up
of huge Federal bureaucracies
of the PWA or WPA type. That
kind of talk evidences lack Of
faith in the inherent vitality of
our free economy and in the
American as an individual.
Schemes of that kind reflect
the fallacy that economic prog
ress is generated not by citizens
wisely managing their own re-
sources, but by the wholesale
distribution Of the peoples
money in dubious activities
under Federal direction. Un-
sound programs Of that Kind
would do great damage to
America rather than contrib
ute to our economic strength.
February IL Statement
My February IL economic
statement emphasized a num-
Der Of important considera-
tons:
First, that current economic
developments, including In
creased unemployment with Its
severe hardships for those in
dividuals temporarily out Of
work. are of deep concern tc
us all;
Second, that the basic fac
tors making for economic
growth remain strong, justify
ing expectations of cary Geo.
nomic improvement:
Third. that numerous gov
ernmeiital policies and pro-
grams already under way anc
projected will help achieve az
early resumption of economic
growth; and,
Fourth, that should add.
tional governmental measures
