Editorial Views
Of State Papers
Respecting The Law.
(Waterbury Republican.)
Neither The Hartford Times nor
The Bridgeport Telegram approves
Justice Frank D. Heines‘s ruling
that violation of the Constitution or
laws enforcing it is an act of moral
turpiiude. The former thinks it
quits all right to disobey a law if
one does it for the sake of consci-
ence and not his pocket book. The
latter thinks it permissible to vio-
let a. law if one thinks that it
doesn't justly oi- wisely enforce the
intent of the Constitution.
But neither paper faces the fact
that its exceptions would open the
way to the plausible violation of any
Mutation. and neither paper ex-
plains why it should be necessary
for citizens of a democracy to vio-
late laws in order to register their
objection to them. in face. neither
paper gives evidence 'of a. realiza-
tion that citizens of a democracy
have a different moral obligation to-
wards the laws that govern them
than the citizens of an autocracy
have toward the edicts that govern
them.
it seems unnecessary to rehearse
the principles upon which this gov-
ernment is founded. Let us quote in-
stead two of the if "duties of citi-
zenship" recently formulated by
Judge R. Eve in a charge to the
grand Jury of 'rift county. Georgia.
They read: 'To obey all laws my~
self and to expect others to do it;
to uphold officers in the enforce-
ment thereof. To openly and vigor-
ously work for the repeal of all use-
less or unjust statues and Consti-
tutional provisions."

OUR GOVERNORS UKDERPAID.
(New Havon Journal Courier.)
Outside of men engaged in busi-
uses which is thoroughly organized
and managed. and can spare its
head for a. prolonged period. it is
next to impossible for one to be-
come governor without the risk of
entering the bankruptcy court. by
the back. if not-by. the front. on-
trance.
It is probably true that the gover-
norship is a $50.000-a~year Job. it
doesn't however, always attract a
$50,000-a-year man and Connecti-
cnt always has and probably will for
a. long time expect to get men to
serve it for a pittance plus the plea-
sure and satisfaction of doing so.
There is no likelihood that the sa-
lary will ever be made financially

United Staies’ Entry
into the World Court
Becomes More Doubtful
WASHINGTON. Aug. 10.—-—Offlc.
in! Washington. generally speaking.
thinks the chances are about two
to one that the United States will
not. after all get into the World
Court.
Il‘lieoreticsliy this country's appli-
cation for membership is on file.
but it is an application which the
Senate qualified with so many re-
servations, before indorsing it. that
its coceptsnce by the powers already
in the Court is considered much
more than doubtful.
Of course. this is not a thing for
an bfficeholder under the Coolidge
administration—World Court mem-
bership being one of the latter's
most cedential policies—~to say out
loud. _
Nevertheless. it is an opinion
which confidentially. is widely ex-
pressed. .
More than that. one frequently
hears the surmise that the admin-
istration itself hopes now that Am-
erican admission to the Court. on
the Senate‘s terms. will be refused.
Membership. .on a basis which
permits the United States to disre-
gard practically any of the irihunai's
findings. if unsatisfactory in Wash-
ington. would mean very little. at
best.
Besides. it is taken for granted in
most quarters that the adminllltra-
tion sees. by this time. that oppo-
sition to America entering the World
Court is quite strong. If we are ad-
mitted. it may make had work at
the polls in 1928. If we are turn-
ed down. there is the chance that
the issue will be forgotten. to some
extent. in the next two years.
That presidential advocacy of Am-
erican adherence to the world tri-
bunal was no more gesture. how-
ever. is an undoubted fact.
The president really wanted to
join. and if he COUldifOl‘CO it to do
so. with none of the Senate‘s
strings on its membership. he prob-
ably would do so yet. even at the
risk of arousing antagonism among
those who would regard it as a
”Europeansentanglement."
Following the Senate's action on
the World Court protocol. the
State Department sent notes to each
of the 48 signatory countries en-
closing certified' copies of the Ben-
ate resolutions and reservations.
Greece. Cuba and Liberia have ac-
quloeced.
Meantime. the secretary general
of the League of Nations proposed
that the United states send a dele-
gation to Geneva to discuss the
Senate reservations with the signs-
tories at a meeting beginning Sept.
1. The State Department replied
through the Berne legation first the
Senate reservations are "plain and
unequivocal." so the department
could see no advantage in discuss-
ing them through the dole tion.
which could not vary the enate's
terms anyway. until such terms' so-
ceptance by the signatories.
The matter rests there without
further proceedings pending except
that subsequent communications. if
any. will be handled through the
Berne Legation and the league sec-
setary.

which will be held in Foot Guard
Hall. Hartford, September 13. As

Lean will deliver the "keynote" ad-
dress of the convention on the open-

HAZE STOPPED
METEOR VIEWS
CAMBRIDGE. Mesa.
(AP). Dr. Willard J. Fisher of
the Harvrad observatory. de-
clared loday that it was highly im-
probable lf scientific knowledge of
meteors would be increased by ob-
servations made of the seasonal
shower which began August 10.
Very few plates had reached him.
he said. in response to the appeal
made by tile observatory to ama-
teurs to make a photograph of the
display. All that have been develop-
ed of these to date have revealed
nothing. A high here was blamed
by Dr. Fisher for preserving the
veil of mystery about the fiery fliers
during the first two nights of the
ten-night period when they are at
their greatest brilliancy. The best
conditions in New England. he said
were in southern Maine.
