TO KEEP NEWSSTAWD ON Sale of Papers Vital To Freedom of Press, Judge Oliver Rules, Quashing Suit A further safeguard of freedom cf the press was established in a Philadelphia court yesterday by a judge who held unhampered distribution of newspapers to be as vital as the liberty of publishing them.

President Judge L. Stauffer Oliver, of Court of Common Pleas No. 7, in a far-reaching decision, quashed an attempt to have a newsstand ousted from a West Philadelphia corner on the ground that it was a public nuisance. "It is readilj apparent," Judge Oliver declared, "that under modern conditions newspapers are more than a public convenience; they are a necessity." Far from being a nuisance. Judge Oliver held that newsstands have become a well-established custom "meeting an urgent need." SUITS ARE DISMISSED "The newsboy and his corner newsstand have achieved a definite and essential place," Judge Oliver said.

Dismissed were 'suits in equity brought by Mrs. Sallie E. Wilson, of Woodbine, York county, owner of the premises at the northeast corner of 56th and Market and her son, Robert J. Wilson, of 101 N. 62d manager of the property.

Mrs. Wilson and her son had sought to have Joseph A. McGill, proprietor of a newsstand under the stairs of the 56th st of the Market st. elevated line, abutting their proixrty, ousted from using the space on the grounds that his stand constituted a public nuisance. NEWSBOY'S ANSWER Mrs.

Wilson charged also that Mc Gill was trying to obtain a right to her premises without paying any compensation to her. It was pointed out in McGill's answer that a newsstand had been in operation at the corner in question since 1926, and that Mrs. Wilson had been receiving from $10 to $25 a month until McGill purchased the stand more than two years ago, paying its previous owner $2300. McGill paid half a month's rental, then refused to pay further amounts to Mrs. Wilson or her son.

Observing that none of the tenants of the Wilson property had complained against the presence of the stand. Judge Oliver noted also that Robert J. Wilson had not come into court with "clean hands" and had never considered the newstand a public nuisance until it no longer rendered him a profit. CALLED NECESSITY "It is readily apparent," the jurist said, "that under modern conditions newspapers are more than a public convenience; they are a necessity. "The fact that newspapers are not public utilities and therefore not, subject to regulation with respect to their advertising rates la immaterial here.

"Democracy, so much dependent upon a well and quickly informed public opinion, cannot be expected to survive without the organized publication and the speedy and unhampered distribution of news, protected by the constitutional doctrine of freedom of the press," Judge Oliver went on. "Liberty of circulating is as essential to that freedom as liberty of pub-Continued on Fae 2, Column 7 Inquirer Auto production features further gains in industry. Page 22A Security quotations.

Their gain was the scalpers' loss, however.

Hundreds of cancellations received from Army and Navy officials who could rot attend the game provided plenty of tickets for at FOOTBALL TRAFFIC HAILED SPEEDILY TO MO FROM GAME Special Detail of 700 Police on Job; Broad St. One-Way By RALPH CROPPER With smoothness and precision outstripped only by the drilling of Army's cadets and Navy's midshipmen, the huge task of transporting a throng of 102.000 to and from the Municipal Stadium yesterday was accomplished without a single serious hitch. From 8 A. when a special detail of 700 police went on traffic duty, until after the post-game rush died down, plans for handling the tremendous traffic problem created by the Army-Navy grid classic, carefully laid out weeks in advance, were carried out to the letter. BROAD ST.

ONE-WAV From 10 A. M. until well after the kickoff. Broad st. was a one-way southbound street from Spring Garden st.

to the stadium, and thousands of cars, filling the thoroughfare from curb to curb and" skirting City Hall on both sides, sped to the stadium more rapidly than they could have traveled under every day traffic conditions. Then, when the game ended, north -bound traffic took over Broad st. for two hours, and again the mighty army on wheels moved without undue delay. THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES Thousands of private cars, upward of 1000 taxis, and 157 buses made up that motorized army, which sped over Broad st. and other arteries leading to and from the stadium.

Part of the roof was burned off and water damaged all three floors, but firemen from Essington, Prospect Park and Ridley Park prevented flames from leaping 30 feet to the church.

Boltz missing attorney-investment advisor, directing them to appear before the Federal Grand Jury on Tuesday at 10 A.

M. Names of the 30 were withheld by the United States Attorney's office, but it was indicated they had been selected for their ability to support the Government's contention that Boltz had violated Federal statutes in his far-flung financial transactions. ALL IN riHLA. AREA "We are going to present what we believe to be evidence that Federal laws have been violated." said Assistant U. S.

Attorney Francis W. penas had been issued. All of the 30, he said, are from the Philadelphia area. Together with the testimony they will give to the Grand Jury, Sullivan will lay before the group all of the books and records of Boltz's office. Boltz already has been indicted In the State courts for allegedly operating as a stock broker without a license, an action brought by the State Securities Commission.

The decision to issue the subpenas was reached at. a conference between Sullivan and Edward Jalger-man. local counsel for the SEC. The conference continued la.st night and will be resumed today and tomorrow as the two build up their case against the missing lawyer. ATTORNEY MISSING "We are not n.vklng the Grand Jury to on a fishing expedition," Sullivan said, in MnplmMzing that most of the ground work would be finished before the case was submitted to the jury.

Boltz disappeared Oct. 22. leaving no apparent trace of some $2,500,000 reported to have been turned over to him for investment purposes by 150 clients.

McCULLOUGH One hatless, dishevelled, deliriously happy Midshipman clung, like a monkey to a stick, to the sole remaining vertical goalpost standard as early twilight stole down upon Municipal Stadium's crowded field yesterday afternoon. Below him, close-locked companions of the regiment tugged and panted to his breathless, pleading "heave" and "ho." At last, with a capitulating crunch and snap, the stubborn timber fell and the cup of joy of the young men from the banks of the Severn was full to overflowing. NAVY, 14; ARMY.

To the 102,000 who luxuriated in one of the most perfect days ever vouchsafed the football season's valedictory the Army and Navy classic it was an afternoon compounded of all of the familiar elements of swift action, color, pomp and beauty. NEW AND SOLEMN NOTE But there was a new and solemn note, a spine-tingling echo upon the emerald green field of the grimness of events abroad. For these were not merely youngsters celebrating a full half -century of football rivalry between two great academies West Point and Annapo lis; they were the future officers cf the Army and Navy of the United States upon whose initiative and courage and splendor of spirit the whole fate of a nation may rest some day.

CROWD NO DIFFERENT To be quite frank, the usual hurly-burly, chrysanthemum and epaulet-hung throng was no different from the 40 other such throngs that had gathered, in mounting thousands, from that distant day in 1890 when a spirited Navy squad routed Army by the score of 24-0. Indeed, the crowds stilll were pouring through the concrete tunnels of the big stadium whenat 12.15 precisely the Cadet corps, marching in companies of platoon front. 1850 strong, swung through the east gate behind their brilliantly-uniformed band. FACE NAVY STANDS In perfect alignment, they passed the Navy box. where Secretary of the Navy Franx Knox and other im-nnrtant.

officials and officers of the Navy Department were standing, the ranks with eyes ngnt, me onicers at hand salute; then circling the field, sweot in perfect formation to face the Navy stands. After them came the midshipmen, 2596 of them the white of their caps and the blue of their coats unwinding upon the field like a huge polka-dotted scarf, until they faced their rivals from the Hudson.

Larsen of Wisconsin, midshipman commander of the regiment, advanced across the centre -field stripe and exchanged salutes. Then, as the field literally froze the only movement the fluttering of the pennons on the trumpets, or that of a wind-whipped cape the band played the last bars of "Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean" those bars whose words are: "The Army and Navy forever, three cheers for the Red, White and Blue." STADIUM HUSHED Tn that brief moment, even the white-coated vendors in the stands were still. There was no sound but the drone of 'pnes overhead, and In Today's Sunday LIEUT. GOV. LEWIS ASKS STATE STUDY DF PAROLE SYSTEM Pardon Board Head Terms Present Set-Up 'Outmoded' By C.ERSON II.

LUSH Inquirer 1 1 a rrhlm Hureaii HARRISHUHG, Nov. 30 Declaring; that the State's paroli' system Is inadequate and outmoded. Lieutenant Governor Samuel S. L'Wis today proposed that the General Assembly empower the Board of Pardons to make an exhaustive study of the subject for the purpose of suggesting remedial legislation. As Lieutenant Governor Lewis has presided over the Board of Pardons hearings since January, 1939.

He said he was prompted to ask for corrective measures because experience has convinced him "more than ever that there is something lacking in the laws, the system and the granting of pardons, paroles and the rules and regulations governing commutations of sentence." INVOLVED QUESTIONS "While I. like other members of the board, have given much thought to the question, I must confess that at this time I am not able to decide what the nature of the changes should be," Lewis assertetd. "The longer I sit on the Pardons Board, the more involved the appears to me. During the time I have sat as a member, nearly 2000 cases have come before the board young and old, hardened criminals, first offenders, cold-blooded killers and those involved through ignorance and wrong associates. ASKS STUDY OF LAWS "The procession of those applicants has been such us to impel any man to serious thought.

Particularly is it a tragedy to see so many juveniles and youths starting on criminal careers instead of taking their rightful places in society." Asserting that "any study or survey, however brief, convincingly shows that the Pennsylvania parole program not only fails to take into account many present day conditions, but that the statutes leave many things to be settled," Lewis Continued on Page 2, Column 4 Germantown Firebug Sets Fifth Blaze A firebug with a mania for turning in alarms after he has started a blaze was being sought by police throughout Germantown last after the fifth similar fire in 10 days broke out at Washington lane and Morton st.

M.

UNLOADED AT SI The sale of 1600 such extra tickets knocked the props from beneath the scalpers' market, and no one seemed sorry when the pasteboard praspec-tors, as game time approached, pleaded with all and sundry to buy tickets for as little as $1 each. A few hours before the scalpers had been demanding as much as $25 a pair for 40-yard line scats. When the crowd marched merrily past to buy their tickets from the Navy booth at $4.40 each, the scalpers began cutting prices until the $1 level was reached. NO TAX FROM SCALPERS Because, for once, the scalpers were the ones who were scalped, Internal Revenue agents didn't even bother them, since there was no tax to collect on excess charges for tickets. The agents reported they had found no counterfeit tickets.

On the other hand, the Navy Athletic Association reported the sale of programs was the largest in the history of the Army-Navy games. A total of 42,600 were sold, about 8000 were given away to Army cadets and Navy midshipmen and bigwigs of the two services, and 3500 were reserved for shipment to Army posts and Navy ships on duty. Police confiscated two truckloads of pennants, pins and other paraphernalia outside the stadium because the sellers didn't have concessionaires' licenses. The trucks were driven to the police stables, but were Continued on Page 8, Column 6 ANNOUNCEMENT The Inquirer now makes a SPECIAL OFFER in connection with the com memorative President Spoons which are being made available to readers.

He was Stanley Kulpa, who, police said, was paroled from the Eastern Penitentiary on Oct. 24, 1930. after serving three years for burglary. ADMITS HE DROVE CAR Kulpa, police said, at first denied knowing he had struck the man, but later admitted he was the driver of the car and said he did not stop because he did not have a driver's license. He was charged with manslaughter.

Sergeant Samuel Fairstein and Patrolman Gabriel McErlane arrived on the scene a moment after the man was struck. They found a license tag and pieces of shattered glass from the fleeing car. The license directory showed that the car was owned by Felix Kulpa, Moy-amensing ave. near Carpenter and police of that district went to his residence. SUSPECT ARRESTED Felix Kulpa admitted owning the car.

but said he had lent it to his brother. A short time later Stanley Kulpa drove up. The front license tag on the car was missing and the headlights were broken. He was arrested. Physicians at St.

Mary's Hospital, where the victim's body was taken, said almost every bone in his body was broken. He was about 55. five feet six inches tall, weighed 145 pounds and wore a brown tweed suit, gray sweater, blue work shirt and black shoes.
