obstruction Of Justice
Probe Asked by Judge

Chief District Court Judge
Matthew F. MCGUIRE has asked
the United States attorneys
office to investigate possible
obstruction of justice" in the
cases of two men who asked
District Court to appoint new
lawyers for them.
The Judge asked for the in
vestigation yesterday after he
learned that the two men in
volved had signed letters seek
ing new lawyers even though
they were satisfied with the
services of their present lawyers
so far.
Judge MCGUIRE learned that
in one of the cases the man
involved had not even read the
letter. which had been written
by another inmate of the Dis
trict Jail with the promise that
the letter seeking a new court
appointed attorney would help
the man in his run-in with the
law.
The judges request for an
investigation would be aimed
at "jailhouse lawyer" who ira
ditionally send in lengthy legal
papers and requests for court
action which more often than
not have little or no merit. This
practice often results in lengthy
delays of criminal cases, and

King Predicts
Negro Gains
In Congress

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 9 (AP) =.
The Rev. Martin Luther King,
Southern Negro leader, says
the South could elect 10 Negro
congressman in the next dec
ade.
| Only IA million Negroes now
are registered to vote of an
eligible S million Negroes in
the South, DR.. King, head of
the Southern Christian Leader
ship Conference, told a news,
conference yesterday.
Enfranchisement Of large
numbers of Negroes could end
what DR.. King termed coali-
ton of conservative Southern
Democrats and Northern Re-
publicans, he added.
1 Negro leaders would like to
double the registration in the
next two years, DR.. King said.
Southern Negroes are pre-
dominantly liberal, he said,
and their influence will in
many cases help elect liberals
or make conservatives less
illiberal."
The Baptist minister told
1,500 persons at Santa Monica
Civic Auditorium last night
that the time has come for the
President to issue a second
emancipation procla m a tion
ending racial segregation.
He said the Negro has made
great progress in the United
States but has a long way vet
to go to achieve racial equality.
DR.. King said the President,
could end racial discrimination
in housing and other forms of
racial bias with an executive
order similar to that by which
President Lincoln freed the

ROME.-Tradition is in
creasingly regarded at home
as archaic and is identified
by many with extreme con-
servatism. New tenets are
taking the place of good old
Americanism.
For instance, the tradition
that an individual must rely
on himself and hard work in
his productive years to assure
his old age is being replaced
by the concept that he must
spend all his earnings; the
Government will be taking
care of senior citizens"
Also the tradition of thrift
which has been responsible
for The unprecedented growth
of wealth of the United
States. in the shortest period
of time known in history is
being replaced by the urging
Of all citizens to become
spendthrifts.
Why worry about your
children's education when the
Government will take care of
it? If they don't make the
grade in free competition. the
Government will give them a
job with a guarantee of a
pension.
Until 30 years ago social
ism was a dirty word in
America-much as "conserva-
tism" is at present. Those
who watch us from other
lands realize probably more
than we do the radical
changes which are taking
place in America-from the
behavior of our children to
our political gyrations. They
are amazed that the Nation
which was regarded as the
example of unplanned pros
perity is now moving so rap
idly and heedlessly toward
what is regarded here as
"unplanned socialism.
To the watchful Europeans,
who owe their prosperity to
the largess of the United
States. it is strange that the
land of opportunity is chang
ing its face with such un-
believable speed.

ical philosophy. But at that
time it was looked upon in
America as something harm
full to the free development
and prosperity of the indi-
vidual in our country.
This reporter. who studied
political science in Munich,
Germany, in the early part
of this century, remembers
we'll that a course in the
MARKHAM doctrines was essen
tial in at least one seminar
before graduation and the
reading of Das Kapital was
a must for every student.
But at the same time, so
we're the works of the con-
servative Gustav Won Schmol-
Ter and those of the state
socialist, Adolf Wagner.
Socialism was in bloom
even before World War I and
had a respected position in
the political life of every
country on the European
continent. In the reactionary
Germany of the Kaiser there
were no fewer than 1877 So
claliSt members of the
Reichstag. In France, under
the leadership of Jaures, So
cialism was making great
strides, as it did in every
other country in that area.
Because of this back
ground, there is more than
wonderment over here at the
rapid strides socialism is
making at home under the
labels of New Deal, Fair Deal
and New Frontier. There is
no actual criticism of the
theory itself, for the Euro
peans are far less prone these
days to interfere in the af-
fairs of another country. But
these nations, which only Is
years ago were down at their
heels. are worried over the
tendency of some Americans
to interfere in their ma
tional affairs in order to
ram down their throats some
of our new ideas which are
really old to them. We think

good many institutions are
trapped with huge stadium
debts. Most have built an
expanded general sports pro-
gram around a winning team
- which brings in huge
crowds and pays the bills.
There is a steadily-growing
list of institutions which have
found a less frerfzied and
costly middle ground. Rutgers
has become the most pub
licized example because Of
its undefeated team. There
are scholarships for students
who need them, and if some
who receive them play foot
ball, well and good. But no
scholarship puts a player in
the status of a man sub
sidized for his muscle prowess
alone. (Ohio State has an
nounced that its football
scholarships total about
$450,000 annually. Smaller
State institutions have
scholarship costs of 100000.
This accounts for the
pleasure a big bowl game
brings. Its cut wipes out def
icits and provides a surplus

There is one out: Universi-

study where "other things
like education, people, atti-

important"
Perhaps more revealing are
the comments of two Of
ficials at Rutgers, both for
mer football players. George
A. Kramer director of admis-
sions, has said: The con-
cept of big-time football is
foreign to our educational
philosophy. The student here
simply does not have the time
for all that goes with it,"
Perhaps even more mean
ingful is the comment by
the associate director: "You
cannot have big-time, big
pressure football without a
curriculum where you can
hide those boys who are not so
well qualified accidentally.
Here we have no place to hide
