Friday, January 17, 1936 The Government's Rights The power trusts of the nation?which have enjoyed the God-given natu al resources that should be used for the good of the whole jieople, but which have been turned over to these corporations for a mere bagatelle ?now say that nobody si^uld have the right to make electricity but themselves, and they are trying to get the courts to so declare. If the courts should so rule, then the government should step in and take from these companies the eminent domain which they have used freely for so long. We cannot conceive of the government having the right to turn over the property of the |>eople to these concerns and yet not have the right to go into the |xiwer business for itself. Everything that the government has owned that had value seems to have been gobbled up by people who now defy the power of the government to exercise any authority that would conflict with their own schemes If the government has had the right to give the property of the public away, then it should have the right to recapture it for the Ix-nelit uf the public. Of course, people generally fear their Supreme Court after the astounding decisions handed down by it re cently. The Handwriting on the Wall The American Telephone and Telegraph Company, possibly the world s most powerful corporation, has either had a change of heart or seen the handwriting on the wall, as it has voluntarily reduced its charges for long distance messages recently. The rate from Charlotte to Atlanta, Ga., formerly $1.50, has been reduced 45 cents ti $1.05. All Sunday rates have been reduced and most night rates are lower. The re ductions do not apply, however ,to messages on whicn the charge has been 35 cents or less. Of course, this is only a small concession, but is will help some, and it shows a change of heart on the part of the corporation. And, of course, they do not want to show their books to the public.

C. 4M1 The Best Thing Yet Presented Senator N*orris is proposing a bill in Congress to re quire the unanimous vote of the Supreme Court to annul arts of the Congress, which bill seems to be the best things presented so far to save the liberties of the people. It seems that the Congress has the right to prescribe the rules and procedure to be followed by the courts. Unde the pesent arrangement, with a simple ma jority vote of the court governing its decisions, one man may enslave or free the people simply by casting his vote for or against a particular law. Personally, we do not think that a partisan court is always infalli ble. A judge who has always been employed by a system that demands a certain line of personal influ ence cannot be trusted. He will not break away from the friends who have nurtured and fed him when their interests are at stake. It would be just as natural for a boy to break away from the love of his mother as it is for a lawyer to break away from the hand that has fed him simply because he has been elevated to the Supreme Bench. Most men are too weak to withstand high pressure, and this applies even to the men who sit in high places in law-njaking bodies and in the judiciary. There are entirely too many men chosen from the employ of big interests to make our laws and our court decisions. Lawmakers and judges should never be chosen from the field of corporation-trained lawyers. Simpler System of Justice A good many people seem not to want justice. The Hauptmann case is a point in quetsion. A court and jury passed on the case and declared his guilt under the laws of the state of New Jersey. After ap|iealing to the courts rharged with the duty of ascertaining if the law had been carefully and hon estly administered; it was found that it had; then a general tirade of crlicism from every quarter of the globe set in, apparently to try to gain sympathy and confuse the minds of many who would begin to say that there was doubt in their minds. And Hauptmann is still here, without paying the debt to society which has been found to be due. In our own state prison, there are 18 men on death row, their executions being delayed not because there is any grave doubt about their guilt but because some body is trying to thwart and hamper the law. When we learn that kidnappers, rapists, and Mur derers are not worthy to live?and so declared by the laws of our country?and we fall in line with the most civilized and cultured nations of the earth, it will be Utter for us. In Kngland or France Hauptmann would have paid the penalty long ago, and others would have known that the law meant business and would respect it. . Most.people seem not so much concerned when a good men is killed in an automobile wreck or some other accident, but when the worst man in the com munity commits a capital felony they tly into a fit, shed crocodile tears, and try to free him. We need a simpler system of court procedure and more speed in the execution of its judgments. Reflecting a Great Need The people guessed right when they said the court did not know what it was doing in its AAA decision. Now the court has passed 011 the rice case, which seems to have jammed the first decision in a hole, and it is practically bogged down in its own tracks. What we need is a new constitution one that the judges themselves can agree upon and respect, so that the |ieople can respect the court. NOTICE North Carolina. Martin County.
