WATIONAL REPRESENTATIVES — Alaska Newspapers, 1411 Pourth Avenue Bldg., Seattle, Wash. Wednesday, July 18, 1951 CODE OF ETHICS FOR GOVERNMENT SERVICE Some two dozen members of Congress not long ago introduced a concurrent resolution that should be of widespread interest. The resolution is here pre- sented in full: Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That it is the sense of the Con- gress that the following Code of Ethics should be adhered to by all Government employees, including officeholders: Government employment, whether as an elected officer or not, requires both conscientious vocational labor and righteous personal conduct. It should be characterized by devotion to God and country. As a desire and purpose to forward the best in- terests of the United States are an essential part of the loyalty of citizenship, no person who fails to have such desire and purpose should hold Government em- ployment. Government employees should: 1.

Standouts (Cincinnati Enquirer) In a group of new judicial appointments made by the President, two stand out as especially well earned. Mr. Truman nominated Federal District Judge Harold Medina to succeed Learned Hand on the U. S. Court of Appeals; and he chose New York’s Police Commissioner, Thomas F. Murphy, to succeed | Judge Medina in the District Court. Judge Learned Hand was one of the great jurists of our time, and it was appropriate that the Presi- dent should seek out a man of great stature to succeed him. Judge Medina is such a man. His conduct of the trial of 11 Communist leaders re- vealed his great learning, his patience and his unfl ging devotion to the highest traditions of Ameri jurisprudence. Police Commissioner Murphy, who for eight years was a Federal Assistant District Attorney, came to nationwide prominence for his successful prosecution of Alger Hiss. Mr. Murphy has not only great persmm]i qualities but a wealth of legal experience and a firm | belief in the right and the power of government to deal vigorously with its internal enemies. At a time when the Justice Department is begin- ning a new and strcnger effort to check subversion. following the Supreme Court’s decision on the 11 Communist leaders, it is especially significant that two Judges were selected who were known to the nation for their effective service in the prosecution or trial of subversive individuals. ag- n A small town is the cne where hell hath no fury to person, party, or Government department. like a leading citizen left off a civic committee.—(Vic- toria Times.) “the Chinese cour “there be a long wait wilis a heavy 2.
