When Judge Norval K. Harris made his statement in court Tuesday about the criticism he had received over his appointment to be co-chairman with Paul Robeson on a committee to assist 11 top Communists on trial in New' York, he never did get around to saying what the lies, in the newspaper stories were.
After all, the stories In the Chicago paper which he called vicious lies were written after the judge talked to Mike Meredith, whc .came to Sullivan from Chicago for the express purpose f talking to Mr. Harris. But it . could be that the account as Mr. jMeredith Iwrote it was veiy unflattering and that is what the judge objects to.
However, his criticism of The Times hasus stumped. He said that the stories The Times carried were unfair and un-called for. Unfair? Yes, if printing il.e facts are unfair. You see, Mr. Harris has never denied anything that was said in The Times. He has just objected to them being printed.
Un-called for? Yes, if the judge thinks that the people of the county should not be told of his activities. However, we feel that it is the duty of a newspaper tc inform the public. And
when an elected official brings notoriety tc his home county, then we feel the people have a right to know about it.

1 Though his education was slight, this inventor's interest in chemistry led him to the development of high explosives and the formulating of an hypothesis of the compound nature of atoms close to the atomic theory of today. In 1888 he began experimenting with explosives and developed . smokeless powder. He also invented high explosive powder and the delayed-action detonating fuse. Born in 1853 in Orneville, Me., he lived to see (World War I) the wide use of his explosives in behalf of his country. He died in 1927. .Who was he? 2 This great baseball catcher of the past is still connected with, the diamond sport, as a big league coach. Born in Minooka,

In the first eight mo'itis 'f his term in office, the judge has cost the taxpayers a lot of money because of changes of v.mue ai.d changes of judge. In fact, if such changes continue the remainder of his term as they hove started lie will prove to bt very expensive.
