The Seattle Star Speaking of Fair Trials— The Birmingham (Alabama) Post the other day. pub- lished in connection with a murder trial the fact that the defendant was aiso under indictment on two lesser charges. ‘ The judge cited three members of the newspaper's staff for contempt on the ground that the article might impede justice, prevent a fair trial and prejudice the jury. On trial, without a jury and before the aggrieved judge him- self, former Secretary of War Baker, as counsel for the > hewspapermen, urged that no contempt was intended or | committed and that the facts were proper to be printed, The judge then said that if the men would admit their » contempt (which they denied) and promise for the future " not to print articles that courts might ask them to sup- > press, he would let them go. Of course, rather than foreswear their constitutional rights they preferred jail, and so they were locked up. © Now, then, all this was in defense, the court said, of fair trial for the man indicted for murder. But let us see what kind of trial these newspapermen They were given no trial by jury; the judge was Jods, jury and complainant.

ORIENTAL TRADE INCREASING ‘The Orient now claims a fifth of the entire foreigh trade of the United States. The proportion of American trade with the East has nearly 4 since 1913. Heavy exports of silk from Japan and China; rubber tin from the Straits Settlements; wool from Australia; tea, shellac and manganese from India, increased our imports from the Orient from 768,000 in 1921 to $853,972,000 in 192%.—Department of Commeree, Wonderful Cities That Were “O Sun!

Susie works in the kitchen of the Pan- tall hotel in Punxsutawney, Pa. _ Between meals, the kitchen help got talking about the ‘Marathon daneers—and why a marathon is rarely at- pried at some useful task. Susie began boasting about ow | she could perform with dishpan and soap. Bets ere made. Susie washed dishes 31 hours straight with- out stopping. he needn't worry avout her laurels. No danger of marathon dishwashing or any other kind of housework ming epidemic. The question that started Susie performing remains “unsettled. Namely: “Why do endurance contestants al- Most without exception waste their energy on such triv- ialities as dancing and running, and rarely at useful tasks?” ‘ Trying to figure it out, you become mired to the neck in psychology. Probably it's because a useful task nearly always in- olves some sort of compulsion, against which we all have instinctive spirit of revolt. Not many centuries since apps of our ancestors were slaves of one sort or other. ¥ lom was a delusion, with the peasant toiling to sup- monarchs or other se-called nobility in grand style. ‘odern monarchs are alarm clock and cost of living.) _ Instinctively we resent even the rulership exerted over us by nature—her making it compulsory for us to. work if we want to survive, The less compulsion, the less spirit of revolt.
