Naturally, the Justice ‘h.ad to rule raccording to LAW. Another case of the mockery of LAW is -the case «against two Lackawanna «policemen. The law convicts one man and frees the other in spite of the fact, -in J U S T I C E, if one man was guilty both were, or, if one was innocent both must have been. LAW allows some 2x4 credit house to seize furniture valued at $1,000 (all of which had been pain)! because ano«ther-item was bought without the buyerpmaking out a new ‘contract for an item of $20-—this ‘happened right here in Lacka.\va~nn.a:——and the Judge liar «no other recourse than to san-tilon -the act-ion—It was LAW. Hundreds of ‘home owners, who tlfough no fault of their own, have lost their homes because LAW says the: mortgage can be foreclosed unless paid according to contract. It is hilgh time the people awoke to the fact that they are thp actual law makers, and demand a revision of that archaic struc- ture known as LAW and‘ the unbinding of Justice, in! order that our Judges, who are as a whole are human, may be able to dis- pense the Justice of which men praite instead; of the LAW handed down by a. body of lawyers, commonly called the Le-gislature. ’Ilodays legal‘ tangles have taken us far from “A government of the people, by the people, for the people,” into the government of the mass by -the arlbitration bolaxrd, better known as the LAW. 5 “If the man in the roadster ‘had fully app‘recia.ted the «neces- isity for red‘ traffic lights, he would have stopped his car all=L0- mabically. Then, there would’ not have been an accident.” » With this warning against‘ l-signal liglrt violations, Commis-i sioner Harnett concludes a series of posters which have been dis- played‘ in 10,000 gasoline ser- vice stations in 14 states and the District of Columbia. The Campaign was made possible ‘by; motor vehicle authorities, sev-f €l‘a.'l major oil oc-mpanies and the National Bureau of Casualty and Surety underwiaters. Glar- ing headlights, passing on cur~ ves or hills, poor tires, and‘ child ped-e-sti'1'an. hazards have been among the subjects treated. .Early accident reports have in- dicated a better record in some states, and the poster campaign i_ has shared credit. The sponsors plan a similar program of nation wide proportions next year. Failure of drivers and pedes- trains alike to observe traffic (D 1953. American Druuuu Syndicate. N. thing.”-Jackson (Miss.)

Now the RFC is to do the purchasing a‘t a figure defin- itely set above the world ‘price of gold‘. ‘The theory is that prices are still based; funda- mentally, on gold. Therefore, if we raise the price paid for gold, ‘gold will be worth less in terms of commodities. Since its» value will go down relative to commodities, prices of com- modities will rise. The price of gold will be advanced slow- ly to the point where the ensu- ing price rise will be suffic- ient to restore profit-making opportunities and increase in- comes to the point where debts can be paid. Will this attempt succeed? No one knows. Some econom- ists say it will many are doubt- ful. It is another experiment the effect of which will be watched by all of us with in- ltense anxiety. ald. Mo secon nicati the I to pa FREE CLINICS FOR MEDICS‘ Each week for the next twenty weeks, The University of Buffalo School of Medicine is holding .a series of clinics free to all Buffalo and Erie County physicians. Changing times make it in- creasingly more difficult foix medical p1‘actitione1's_ to keep‘ abreast of the times; according, to Dr. Edward W. Koch, Dean of the Medical School. It is a pressing problem for a busy‘ doctor to find time to read; and evaluate all the new mater.‘ ial in the field of medicine. R0 Aszk “WHAT THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE THINKS ABOUT” (An answer to lastweek’s edtrial) - The aim of the Lackaw-anna Chamber of Commerce is to pro- mote the Commercial, Industrial and Civic interests of the City, results along these lines cannot be obtained by an individual or small ‘group, it takes the coordinated efforts of every business man, every taxpayer, every industry. Lackaxvanna. needs a postoffice, our men need the jobs it would provide, but it is a small item considering that hundreds of our people are unemployed. What we do need, and of greater importance is new industry, something that will employ hundreds now dependent on charity. Recently the Chamber endeavored to have an industry locate in Lackanvanna that would employ 600 men and women, we had no available building, all the inducements we could offer could be had in any city, we did not have the funds to assist them, today, 600 Jamestown people are no longer on charity but, are employed by this company. ‘ If our businessmen and citizens could realize how important 11' Chamber of Commerce is to a community and the benefits that the city and the individual can del there is no doubt but what the Lackawanna Chanrber of Commerce would be supported as in other cities. 2 M t .5335 E if Since university schools and hospitals are generally con- ceded to be the institutions best equipped to carry on and develop this phase of post- graduate professional work. the Medical School is giving its services free to the profession five times a. week for the next five months, Ho so I c tax, I LOHR ASKS FOR CHECK UP ON TAX PAYMENTS Clinics and lectures will be held as follows: Buffalo Child- ren’s Hospital, Tuesday, 4:30 P.

Mayor Walter J. Lohr, Wed- nesday requested all taxpay- ers to check up on their tax re- ceipts, it having been brought to his attention that school taxes on the same identical piece of property were not only paid twice, but the pay- ments were both accepted on the same day. The property is in the name of Max and E. Kowalczyk, and ‘was paid first by one member of the family, Later in the day another member of the family not knowing of the first payment, called for, re- ceived and paid the bill again. “In as far as the NRA so .heart.i|.y stressed by the oppo- sition is concerned,” the Mayor said. “I charge that our City Treasurer is ‘violating the pro- visions of the code in accept- ing _a salary from the City while, at the same time, talc-Z part time in a local pharmacy.\ Mo ondeé tion 1 City Mr. I props a pla.

PRESIDS mmo ADDRESS Carson Pirie Scott & Com- pany, wholesalers, of Chicago suggests 18 resolutions for do- ing one’s part for success of the NRA. These resolutions are short and to the point, and if the people will catch, the spirit of them, Old Man depression will be quickly forced out of the country. Here they are. Read them and adopt. them: On the night of October 22, in a radio address to the American people, President Roosevelt announced another step in the New Dea.l—-a man- aged currency. What does this mean? It means that an attempt will be made to raise the price level and then con. irol it so as to prevent those fluctuations in prices which have, in the past, played such havoc and launched us into severe depressions. This is not the first time the President has stated that he desires to restore the price level to a point which will sup~ port the debt structure. Last summer he enunciated this policy, asserting that he wish- ed a dollar which would have the same purchasing power a generation hence. The plan adopted to bring about resem- bles very closely that which has been sponsored for years by Profssor Irving Fisher of Yale University, and subse- quently advocated ‘by Profes- sor George F. Warren of Cornell.

Control of the price level is to be achieved by changing the price at which the government will buy gold. From 1837 un- til last August, with the excep- tion of the Civil War green- back period, the government bought gold at a Iixed price of $20.67 an -ounce. In Aug~ ust the Federal Reserve Banks began to buy newly mined gold at a price determined daily by the Treasury. This price was ascertained by cal- culating the depreciation of the paper dollar in terms of ask an : $60 this The play activities, designed to aid in. the development and growth of the children, will :*be directed by, Miss Katherine Lynch, Assistant Professor of Education.
