Step on ’er, Gentlemen! THEY hanged Joseph O’Sullivan and Reginald Dunn over in England the other day for the murder of Field Marshal Sir Henry Wilson. From the day O’Sullivan and Dunn killed Sir Henry to the day the law broke their necks, just forty-nine days elapsed. That’s action I Had the crime been committed in this country, Dunn and O’Sullivan would now be just beginning to settle down to a long, comfortable sojourn in jail, awaiting the remote day of their initial trial—with hung juries, new trials, appeals and other legal mummeries to cheer them up in the still more distant future. Congress is now considering an anti-lynching bill. All right. We, too, are opposed to lynching. But Congress’ silly bill won’t stop it. THREE-FOURTHS OF ALL LYNCHINGS ARE DIRECTLY DUE TO THE POPULAR FEELING THAT JUSTICE IS TOO SLOW AND UNCERTAIN. Particularly is this true in sections of the country where conditions are a little special. An estimable woman, let us suppose, has been the victim of the most revolting of all crimes. The guilty man is arrested and jailed. After long delays he is tried. The tortured victim is forced to parade her story before a throng of morbid listeners, and at last, the ordeal over, the jury retires and returns a verdict of guilty. On a technicality anew trial is granted. The whole abominable thing has to be gone through with again—and maybe, again and AGAIN. Because somebody misplaced a comma, or failed to dot an “i,” or cross a “t,” an innocent woman is required to crucify her soul before a gaping mob while an obviously guilty wretch goes on escaping the just penalty of his crime. There can be no justification for lynching. But there are reasons for it. And the main reason is the law’s excruciating drag. The criminal situation in the United States, so far as crimes of violence are concerned,” says the report of the American Bar Association meeting in San Francisco, “is worse than that of any other civilzed country.” SPEED UP JUSTICE, GENTLEMEN, AND WATCH THE DECREASE OF CRIME. ank up the evil-doer, give him a quick, fair trial, pronounce I he penalty and sock it to him before he forgets what vou are punishing him for. Do this and it will have a wholesome effect both on the public and on the criminally inclined. For the bad man who knows beforehand that punishment will follow swift and sure, will think twice before he pulls his “gat” and makes a sieve of the first fellow the color of whose necktie he doesn’t fancy. We suggest Congress think these things over.

Italy’s Revolution HE Italian bascisti organization has ordered its members -1- to demobilize. Thus ends the first middle class revolution in modern history. The Fascisti have demonstrated that in highly developed nations an anarchistic overthrow, such as has developed m Russia, cannot be brought about, even though the government itself remain inactive. No more extraordinary episode of the present unprecedented period of human evolution has happened than the rise of the Fascisti. Y hen the Russian Bolshevik agents succeeded in stirring the Italian workingmen to revolt, the government of Italy feared to use either the police or the army. The workingmen were allowed to do their will. They seized mills and factories and attempted to establish industrial communism. Then, as spontaneously as the Bolshevik revolution had begun, the Italian middle classes organized a counter revolution. The middle classes called themselves the Fascisti. They gained the mastery because the workingman, bereft of technical’ experts, were unable to keep the wheels of industry revolving. From that beginning, the Fascisti grew in power, and grew too, in irresponsibility. They developed away from the individualistic ideals of the Bolsheviks. They tried to suppress the workers’ organizations and attempted to increase the nationalistic powers of the Italian government. They even urged the seizure of the Italian provinces of Switzerland. Their own conservative excesses have been their downfall, as radical excesses have impoverished the Bolsheviks. Now, the Fascisti revolution is going the way of all revolutions. All revolts lead to anew stabilization. By putting the Fascisti in its place Italy is proving the wisdom of moderation in \all things.

ATTACKONCOURT BEGUN M LABOR ASSUMING FORM Federation Quotes Marshall Argument Challenging Constitutionality. POWERS ARE TOO VAST Carolina Justice Points Out Injustices of Decisions by Supreme Bench. By 0. 0. LYOX. Timet Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.—The movement for a constitutional amendment that will clearly and definitely deprive the United States Supreme Court of its assumed power to declare “unconstitutional” any acts of Congress Is assuming very definite shape. The Amencan Federation of Labor is giving wide circulation to an argument on the subject by Chief Justice Walter Clark of the Supreme Court of North Carolina. He points out that the doctrine that the court could nullify laws was laid down for the first time in 1803 when Chief Justice John Marshall, "a bitter personal enemy of President Jefferson. ’’ obtained by personal influence a dec.sion by the Supreme Court that that court could net aside and hold invalid any act of Congress which a majority of that court should, at any time, hold to be in conflict with the Constitution of the United States. “It never has been alleged,” Chief Justice Clark insists, “that there is a line in the Constitution which confers this power upon the court. If there is, let it be pointed out and it will end the controversy. “Indeed such action is In direct violation of the language of the Constitution of the United States which pro- ! vides that when a bill has passed both Houses of Congress and has been ap- j proved by the President: or, if disap- I proved by him. has been again passed by a two-thirds vote in each House; i ‘lt shall become a law.' “No power more fatal to government by the people could have been devised for. unlike the President and the Congress. the Judges are not elective nor are they subject to review by the sovereign power, the peoples, their terms being limited. On the contrary, they are ai pointed to office and hold for life. For them to take the veto power is to assume arbitrary su- i premacy in the control of government, j “Moreover, they have repeatedly held an act Invalid by majority of one I vote. This rests the Government rot j upon the intelligence of both Houses ! of Congress, with the approval of the i President, but upon the infallibility of i the odd man of the court- “ Power so vast, so irreviewable, so! arbitrary and so utterly at variance | with precedent and without authority j in the Constitution cannot fall sooner j or later to cause serious, if not fatal, j embarrassment. It did so in the Dred ; Scott case and it took four years of j war and three constitutional amend-1 ments to cure it. "It did so when the court reversed, by a change of one vote, the decis.on j by which, following the precedents of I a hundred years, it had upheld the in- i come tax. It took the people of this country nearly twenty years to cure that by the adoption of the sixteenth amendment during which time, in defiance of the act of Congress, the masses paid bill.ons of dollars in taxes which Congress had ordered paid out of the incomes of the rich. “The government of this country should be confined to its people, to be exercised through their duly elected representatives, who are the sole Judges of their fidelity to their trust subject to review by the people them-; selves.” RADIO PRIMER i SKTN EFFECT —Non-uniformity of current distribution in the cross-sec- ! tion of a conductor.

Filipinos Take Up Tactics of Passive Resistance to O btain Freedom From U. S.

By HARRY B. HUNT WASHINGTON. Aug. 15.—Whlle the Administration is struggling in an effort to solve the complicated industrial situation arising from the combined railway and coal strikes, the question of Philippine independence again has forced itself to the front. An altogether new turn has been given to the problem by the announcement in Manila that a non-cooperation-Ist movement, similar to that of Mahatma Gandhi in India will be sjarted in an effort to end American rule In the Islands. This is proposed by Vincente Llanes, former member of the Philippine House of Representatives and member of the recent mission to the United States. If the non-cooperationlst movement

carry into a campaign for active noncooperation. Before Llanes’ election to the Philippine House in 1920 he had been farmer, lawyer, court clerk and justice. He was active in the Popular Independent party, afterward the Nacionalists party. He is a teacher of law and started a public library in his home town of Laog. The father of the non-cooperation or passive resistance plan of freeing dependent nations is Mahatma Mohandis Karamchand Gandhi, a Hindu, now a political prisoner in the Bombay presidency, India. Gandhi taught his Hindu followers that refusing to buy from, serve under, or even recognize the existence of the English would make the British position In India untenable much more quickly than armed resistance. raimiur RETAINS SECRET OFBIGBERTHfI Engineer Who Worked for Krupp Gun Factory Refuses to Reveal Facts. LIKE WEAPONS DESTROYED Entente Learns but Little of German Bombardment of Distant Paris. By PA RL V. GROAT. United Press Staff Correspondent. BERLIN. Aug. 1. —(By mail to United Press) —The secret of the “big bertha” which shot up Paris is buried in the heart of an engineer who worked for Krupps for a few thousand marks a month. His national pride, however, permits him to say nothing about it. The cannon shot from the vicinity of Essen to Paris was nothing more than an eight-inch caliber, high velocity gun, the only thing added to it was German imagination and constructive ability. As far as the entente has been able i to learn it had equal pressure all the; way down the barrel. It permitted a 1 shot to be fired twenty miles high and jto land in Paris. It was made of fine steel—Krupp steel—and had no tricks about it. merely a gun of unusually j high power with ability to use this I power the entire way down the gun. j The entente has inquired about the j gun and has learned that there were only three or four guns of this nature | madet ail of which were destroyed before the entente could seize them, j The entente commission has desired to learn the nature of the construction. but the secret remains within the heart of this engineer from the Krupp works.

SHAPE IF CARS ADDS TO EUEL PREDICAMENT Rail Expert Asserts Freight Conditions Will Cause Coal Famine. REPAIR NEED GROWINQ Rolling Stock Being Driven Constantly as Shipping Increases. By HARRY B. HUNT WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.—Predictions of a serious coal shortage next winter were given additional weight today by statements made by Julius H. Parbelee, director of the Bureau of Railway Economics. Even though the coal strike should be settled, attempts to speed up transportation of coal will be seriously j hampered by the condition of railway j rolling stock, he declared. I There are today, Parmelee says, approximately double the normal number of bad-order cars—the total being in the neighborhood of 300,000 out of a grand toal of 2.344,000 freight cars, j Because of the shopmen's strike, and i the consequent failure to make necessary repairs, the numbers of car | which will have to be laid up for a general overhauling within a few ; months is rapidly Increasing. The I peak of out-of-order cars and locomoj tlves seems likely to be reached about the time the peak demand for coal transportation arrives, and will add a serious complication to the fuel situation. “Normally,” says Parmelee, “about 7 to 8 per cent of freight cars are out of service for repairs. Today, however, that percentage is in the neighborhood of 14 per cent and Is increasing. “The number of cars actually out because of bad condition, however, does not reveal the real situation. By keeping in service large numbers of cars which are in need of minor repairs, but. which are still sufficiently ! serviceable, a heavier load of major ' repairs will have to be met in the early future. It is a case of failure to ‘take a stitch In time.' Cars that | could be laid up now and repaired 1 In a day or two at a cost of perhaps 340 to SSO, will have to be laid up ‘ in a few months to undergo general overhauling or rebuilding at a cost of several hundred dollars. “Despite the coal strike, and the j great falling off in coal shipments that resulted, there has been the sur- ; prising condition of an actual increase j in total car loadings over a year ago That Indicates that business was decidedly on the upgrade at the time the strike came. In fact, it was the 1 momentum that business generally was acquiring that carried total car loadings steadily upward through the first months of the strike, despite the loss of nearly one-half normal coal shipments."

j sity, eat. And most of their expenses are high. So why not charge for their broadcasting services? It is therefore almost Impossible for the numerous broadcasting stations to have a staff of first-class artists on tap at all times. The expenses would be too great, unless there were some way of passing the burden along to the public. Yet the demands are such that the broadcasting must be of the highest plane. It would seem that a logical solution of this problem would be found in centering a strictly first-class colj lection of entertainers at one big station, where a program could be so arranged as to have It of a high level J continuously. This program could be broadcast j from any station in the land by ini terlinking land telephone lines, j This could be done at comparatively | small expense. The American Telephone and Telegraph Company's system covers the whole country. It is going in for broadcasting, too—"toll broadcasting.” The services of these : stations are to be sold to those who ■ want to advertise. Perhaps the manufacturers of a i popular automatic toothbrush will arrange to have John McCormack sing jat S p. m., eastern standard time. : John will put In his appearance at i the radio station on Broadway at the | scheduled time. Meanwhile. Havana, Atlanta, Nor- ! folk. Albany, Wheeling, Washington, | Baltimore, Philadelphia, Boston and j Portland have all been connected with the New York radio studio. The brush manufacturer pays SSO a station. For fifteen minutes’ time McCormack is allowed to sing. His | voice is carried by wire to the foregoing cities and broadcast from there. Subsequent to his final selection, announcement is made that it has been possible to favor the public through the courtesy of the brush company. And purchasers of the celebrated brush will have borne the burden of McCormack’s broadcasting offerings.
