West Virginia Voters Face Dual Amendment Choices
Two proposed constitutional amendments will appear on the November ballot in West Virginia. The School Bond Amendment would grant counties authority to issue bonds up to 3 percent of assessed value for school construction, with local voter approval to follow. The Veterans' Bonus Amendment, costing at least twelve and a half million dollars more, is viewed as economically risky. The Register prefers the school measure and warns that voting for both could mislead voters into supporting the costly bonus, urging broad turnout and grass roots engagement. The piece argues for principled living and mutual restraint in politics and international affairs.

James Marlow explains why federal grand juries, including special ones, can investigate subversive activities independently of the FBI. Jurors take oaths, may compel witnesses, and can cite for contempt if answers fail to protect against self incrimination. Individuals may refuse to answer only if compelled by fear of self-incrimination, else contempt charges apply.
