smallest police forces in the
world operates quietly and
efficiently in the nation's cap
ital. It is a 33-man detail which
stands round-t lie-clock secur
ity duty at the palatial U.S.
Supreme Court building.
The president may have his
White House police and con
gress its special Capital Po
lice force. But thc Supreme
Court is not jealous.
Chief Justice Earl Warren
and his eight associates feel
their men match any in pro
fessional caliber and service
to the public.
Elevated
In 194fi Congress elevated
the Court's force from gov
ernment building guards to
regular police, with status
similar to that of police at the
Capitol and White House.
Since then, thc qualifica
tions of recruits have been
tailored to meet those of most
metropolitan police forces.
The unit undergoes continual
training in police tactics, with
special emphasis on handling
of visitors and crowds.
Crowds' d e s c e n d on the
court, especially in the tourist
season. Visitors from April to
September total about 10,000
a day. The record is 17,000.
The Court policeman's duty
is not confined to the build
ing interior.
"There's no fence around
the grounds to prevent an of
ficer from doing his duty if
police action is needed or he
sees a crime being committed
on adjacent streets," Capt
Thomas W. Slominski, who
took over command last Oc
tober, told UPI.
Extra Training
The average officer has tak
en extra training at the Wash
ington, D.C.. Metropolitan Po
lice academy. He can shoot
from the hip, even leflhandcd,
or apply a judo hold. He also
is educated in such diverse
matters as the law of evi
dence, firefighting, emergency
first aid. flag etiquette, men
tal illnesses and human rela
tions. Most of the policeman's
time is given to visitors, how
ever. Tourists find that those
goodlooking fellows who
know all the answers com
pare in courtesy with Lon
don's famous "Bobby" or New
York's "Finest."
Answer Questions
He must greet with unruf
fled calm Mich questions as
' how much does the building
weigh'.1" (Tiiis was one of the
few inquiries that went un
answered).
Some tourists arrive with
a consuming desire to sec a
real live justice at work on
an opinion. These must be
tactfully routed away from
the justices' chambers.
Many don't understand that
almost all Supreme Court
cases are appeals from lower
courts-that in any event there
Seeing the section reserved
for justices' families, some
will ask: "Does the jury sit
there?"
One inquired: "Was Al Ca
pone tried here?"
Sizable Detail
A sizable detail of police
arc in the court room, some
in plain clothes, when the jus
tices arc on the bench. But
disturbances have been rare.
One of the officers' lesser
duties is to see that visiting
lawyers, who sit in the bar
section, maintain their dig
nity. Occasionally a careless at
torney will find a note thrust
into his hand reading, "please
button your coat."
Women lawyers who make
thc mistake of wearing a hat

were being for those politicians?
Wilson taxed, bir uuestioni current
Winston wrote, "to the limit i The questions are especial
of their credulity." ly current now because
That is a rich nhrasp full American tasuavers have
of meaning. Somehow, it just filed their income tax i was there to tap and they
seems to bear on a current returns. And 1963 is the 50th I tapped the citizens' bankrolls
as though they were con
quering princes levying on
a captive people.
The late Harry L. Hopkins,
a welfare worker who became
a notable New Dealer,
summed up in a few stark
words the process by which
the politicians accommodate
the graduated income tax to
their own ambition to remain
in office and on the public
payroll.
"Spend and spend," said
Hopkins, "tax and tax and
elect and elect!"
As simple as that. Persuade
the heavily-taxed citizens
that someone else is paying
the government bills. Then,
come election day, claim thc
citizens' votes because gov
ernment has spent money in
their towns or counties or
states. Simple, and it works!
But to make it work, the
politicians must convince the
citizens that government costs
cannot be reduced but al
ways must go up. Thus, gov
ernment cost $66 billion in
1956, S76 billion in 1960, $81
billion in 1961. $89 billion in
1962. President Kennedy ex
pects to spend in the current
fiscal year 1963, $94 billion
and $99 billion in fiscal 1964.
A great many billions are
spread around the country in
public works, in subsidies,
and in various services for
the taxpayer-voters. These
categories of expenditures go
up even faster than does na
tional defense. It is a system
whercunder the politicians
legally buy the taxpayers'
votes with the taxpayers' own
money. The voter who falls
for that kind of a shell game
should be cheered on with
Texas Guinan's famous Prohi
bition Era salute:
"Hello, suckers!"

Sen. Morse Raps
Nixon, Rockefeller
Salem - IUPD - Sen. Wayne
Morse (D-Ore.) Saturday night
criticized both former Vice
President Richard Nixon and
New York Gov. Nelson Rocke
feller in a speech to Demo
crats here.
He called Nixon a "war
monger" and he said Nixon
took "a shocking position"
Saturday when he said the
U.S. should "openly support
the forces of freedom in its
policy toward Cuba."
Morse said President Ken
nedy has at all times fought
Communism in Cuba "within
the framework of intcrnation
al law."
He accused Rockefeller of
a "shabby performance" in
egging on French President
Charles de Gaule in hopes of
embarrassing President Ken
nedy. He cited a Rockefeller
speech made earlier last week
that he said was full of
"evasion."

Loch Ness Monster
Declared Visible
Loch Ness, Scotland -OJPD
"Up 'til now we have been
skeptical about the monster,
but it's there all right," Mrs.
Hilda Hitching said of the
Loch Ness monster Sunday.
She claimed she and a
friend, Mrs. Vera King, spot
ted the monster while driving
along thc lake's east shore,
and stopped to watch the crea
ture cavort about 400 yards
out. She said she could sec
thc monster's three humps
clearly.
"We watched the monster
in the still waters of thc Loch
for two minutes. II moved
very slowly, with scarcely
any wash and gradually sub
merged leaving hardly a rip
ple on the surface," she said.
