Sir Oswald Mosley and his Black Shirts have again proveked serious disturbance In London and thrown a great strain on the re- sources and patience of the police, Both inside and outside Olymplu scones of violence occurred and at the conclusion, the Black Shirts required a police escort to see them home. It is not samleient to
that argue
the trouble was foster- ed by Communists. The public too readily slips into the habit of mind that immediately associates, Communista with any incident of disorder; as though they alone could be capable of such a thing. The fact is that among most vee- tions of the community at Home, the regimentation and military organisation of the Black Shirts, the wearing of uniforms and the virtual establishment of a private Mosley army, la resented and its public apearance is, therefore. highly provocatlys.

Our correspondent, "Citizen," to-day denis at considerable length with the main
causes which lie at the back of the un- doubted resentment felt amongst a considerable section of the community at the manner in which local laws and regulations are enforced. Briefly stated, this resentment may be said to have its origin in the undue multiplicity of regulations, in the pin-pricking policy often adopted in their enforcement, and in the tendency on the part of certain sections of the Police Force to bring prosecutions in respect of minor offences in order to make a good showing with "cases." There is also a widely prevalent belief that some of our police officers are above vindictiveness in bringing cases to Court. Much of the trouble, however, is to be traced back to the fact that we are suffering from over-govern- ment in this Colony, illustrated by the plethora of regulations, with which the average resident cannot possibly keep himself posted. Leaving aside, at the moment, those regulations which are redundant or totally un- necessary, the fact is that the authorities take no adequate means of informing the public when fresh additions or amend ments are made. To take trafic regulations as an example, the Government appears to labour under the belief that it has done its duty when it notifies changes through the medium of the Gazette, regardless of the fact that only a very small section of the community ever sees this publication. The consequence is that it is left to the Press, of its own initiative, to notify the public, in its news columns, of changes made. Even so, there is seldon any explanation given in the Gazette of the effect of the additions or alterations, in order to discover which very con- siderable research is usually supporting more people now. than it was supporting a year ago, necessary. A case in point There is no reason to believe that recently occurred in connection the present rate of revival will with the changes in city car materially reduce the number in parking arrangements.
