As usual, those Americans most deserving of seeing Paris will be the last ones to see it, if they ever do. By that I mean the fighting soldiers.

“We cannot have political freedom unless we we preserve economic freedom,” U, -8." Senator Joseph C. O'Mahoney (D.

ple, O'Mahoney's speech marked the. closing session of the 48th annual bar association meet:

the meeting were U. 8S. Senators Raymond E. Willis and Samuel Jackson of Indiana, and overnar Schricker. Senator O'Mahoney advocated that this nation develop “the formula by which national commerce and local commerce may exist side by side, each performing ‘its own function. The development of this formula is distinctly a task for the lawyer, for it will be a rule of the law.”

The question of whether juvenile delinquency cases should be tried in closed ‘juvenile courts or by jury brought forth opinions that. the present closed sessions conflict with constitutional rights. Argue for Secrecy Advocates of the present method based arguments for secrecy on the theory that protection of the youths involved should be the important factor, with the question finally evolving into strict adherence to the constitution as opposed to rehabilitation. More verbal fireworks accompanied the question of probation officers, their appointment and their jurisdiction. A request for appointment of probation officers by judges under competitive exanginations was made with the charge that present methods are producing incompetent officers and retarding progress in solving: the juvenile Problem, ~

Into this classification of “incidental murder” fall the presently unsolved killings of William F. Lowenstein, Albert Lee Goffinett and Lora Volney Dale. Mr. Lowenstein, a night watchman at the Omar Bakeries; .Inc., was found unconscious on his beat early on the morning of June 26, 1943.

Wagner Act Preview

“THE C. I. O, of course, expects its philosophy to dominate the government. Administration of the Wagner act under Madden and the two’‘Smiths provided a preview of what would happen to labor if that expectation were realized. The law—the government’s power—was used not only against employers but against the rival form of labor organization. The C. L O. tried to destroy the A. F. of L. and, given the fuller. opportunity it now seeks, probably would destroy it. But it wouldn't stop there. The C. I. O. would want government's power used to prevent schisms in the C. I. O. and to prevent people from organizing unions of their own choice, or joining them, if they were heretical from the C. I.

The Goffinett killers committed their deed unobserved and had long vanished from the station before the mortally wounded victim was found. The first clue given to police was that by an acquaintance of Mr. Goffinett who recalled that the gas station manager once had quarreled with a soldier reportedly A. W. O..

The soldier was quoted as saying, “I'm going to get you.” ‘When police found him, they discovered that his whereabouts on. the murder night would have made it utterly impossible for him to have done the shooting.
