Local Attorney Calls Atten
tion to Responsibility
Placed on Judge
"No office in a democracy is of
minor Importance," declares Mar
tin F. Ferrey, candidate for-the
republican nomination for justice
of the peace. In explaining why
h- considers the office seriously.
Mr. Ferrey yesterday issued the
following statement:
"The- office of justice of the
pace in. the Salem district is of
more Importance than many seem
to realize. It has the power to im
pose fines and curtail the freedom
of those who come before it hi
criminal matters, therefore, the
matter must not' be Considered
li?ht!y.
"The civil side of the court mav
be administered easily enough by !
any competent attorney.
lcnoYa the law and is not pre?
juliced and of even temper and5
character. However, .the admini
stration of the court in criminal
matters is more complex.
"The country is engaged at this
time in a battle against organized
crime. The very foundations of
our laws and institutions are chal
lensi and in the great conflict
the justice courts from the first
line of defense for organized de
cenry. "Crime is a social disease. It is
not enough to fine or imprison
one convicted or even accused of a
crime. It is essential to know the
causes of the crime and the men
tal and physical characteristics
of criminals. The sciences of so
ciology and psychology are as es
sential to the just administration
of our laws as the raws them
selves, if we want respect for law,
; ami confidence in our courts.
"The Justice court may be liken
ed to a stream at its source. Pol
lute the stream there and the
whole river becomes polluted.
- "Ninety percent and even more
than that proportion of cases come
to the justice court for disposal,
finally, or are there held for the
grand jury. If confidence in that
court is not sound there is an
increase of litigation and increased
coriU to all and delay of justice.
A far as fees are concerned the
Justice of the peace has nothing
to rto with lowering costs. The
-staid legislature determines that.
' I propose to do that which is
possible, and am not contemplat
ing impossible things just for the
sake of promising.
"The constructive program I
propose includes:
"1. The emphasis on the small
claim court by letting people
know of its existence so that all
case involving less than $20 may
be disposed of without cost liti
gation. That is on our statute
books now but people do not know
of it generally, and will prevent
dilatory tactics for purposes of
gain.
" 2. I want to help reclaim our J
youn? people and first offenders !
by -studying the reasons why they j
have committed a given crime. I;
want the criminals due to acci-i
dent, passion, poverty, wealth, ac- I
quired habit to feel and know that
society and the state are inter
ested in their reclamation. That
the courts are not places for per
secution, but of protection for the
innocent.. I want to protect the
innocent and make the guilty im
potent; not because of punishment
applied as vengeance, but justice
applied to help those who can be
reformed, and for the safety of j
society. I
" I. In conducting th'e trials, j
especially those involving minors;
I snail ass representative citizens
tj be present that they may first
baud know of conditions that ex
ist, and the manner of the dispos
al of the cases.
"The office of Justice of the
pear? is an opportunity for rSjal
service and it is in that spirit I
s?ek it. We have a new conscience
in our political life today. I am in
terested in human life. I do not
parade organizations, nor have I
laid stress on the power of ex
pending money. I have asked the
people of th eSalem district for my
ideal to make the justice court the
bt-Mt of its kind.
"No office in democracy is of
minor Importance. Life, freedom
ami justice are dealt in here, and
etiou'd not be treated lightly."

through the holding of a mass
meeting called by officials of the
garage company at which the wa
ter corporation's argument- was
expounded.
At the Hollywood meeting, at
tention was called to the activities
of the Federal Water Service cor
poration, parent company to the
Oregon-Washington company now
operating here, as reported by the
Public Ownership League of
America:
"A huge holding company
known as the Federal Water Serv
ice corporation whose subsidiary
companies carry a valuation of
$144,000,000 operating in 329
communities In 14 different
states. Is rapidly absorbing the
water supply service throughout
the country.
Drastic Increases
Elsewhere Are Told
"This company about two years
ago purchased the municipally
owned water works far Cham
paign, III., and Immediately put
op the rates 25 per cent and tried
to get them higher. The same
company has acquired the private
water supply service in Freeport,
III., and is now before the com
merce commission with a demand
for a 33 1-1 per cent increase In
water rates.
"Numerous stories of what has
happened In Wilkes-Barre, Scran
ton, Pittston and approximately
70 towng and villages in north
eastern Pennsylvania where this
company, has secured control of
the water supply is astounding.
Rates have been put up from 26
to SC per cent an! more. The
whole section is in revolt. A con
dition bordering on civil war pre
vails, and the end te not yet."
