THE COST
. , Z J An official of the American Bankers' Association whose
bttfni'ss is to know, what he is talking about, estimates the
money losses from crime in the United States during 1924 at
4,000,000,000., Adding to this the cost of police protection,
courts, prisons, members of the National Crime Commission
pila'up a grand total of ten billion dollars. This estimate is
tali to be too high by some authorities, but in the absence of
definite statistics they admit that one figure is as good as
another. ' . ' '
ZZ Figures so long that they look like a. Pennsylvania
through freight mean little by themselves. The mind has -to
have something to measure them by. Consider the following:
Tka Estimated crime total is greater than the entire foreign
trade of the United States for the same period; our imports
and exports for the fiscal year of 1924 came to $7,865,422,-008;-
'The ancient and honorable industry of farming attains
the nearest approach to that ten billions ; listed in govern
ment statistics as "Food and Kindred Products," the total
value for 1923 was around nine and a half billions. Textiles
came next with $9,487,000,000. Lumber and allied indus
tries trailed far behind with an ignominious $3,633,000,000.
.. Dollars are one thing and human beings another. There
fore a recapitulation of persons gainfully employed in ban
ditry and kindred pursuits ought to be even more entertain
ing. The number of prisoners in different institutions
throughout the country is said to be about 200,000. Our en
tire criminal population is estimated at 1,000,000. Then we
have those aristocrats of crime who have as the statistics
so delicately put it "unlawfully taken human life." Includ
ing professional gunmen with the winsome young girls who
have shot their boy friends our murders are put at 135,000.
If you got all our murderers together and made them
live in one city that sinister municipality would have a great
er population than Salt Lake City, Utah, or Nashville, Ten

FAMILY DISCIPLINE.
A prominent educator was asked a few days ago as to
what he thought were the principal causes for the preval
ence of crime. He named a number of causes, but the one
thai occurred to him first was .the disposition, on the part
of young people to demand a greater freedom from family
government. In the case of the great majority, this en
larged freedom may produce no serious results. But as a
rule, it will be generally said, by the older folks anyway,
thatthe boys and girls have more freedom now than they
know what to do with. Even if many of them do abuse
bitch freedom, the majority of course do not go to any great
lengths. After a fow years when they may seem a little
pronounced and noisy, and perhaps too lax in certain mat
tcW, they commonly settle down and go to work with steady
industry. But there is a certain element of boys who escape
from parental control at a very early age. Their families
are not able to maintain any authority over them. They roam
the streets at late hours of the night, they seek the society
of the toughest leaders of their gangs. There they hear a
great deal of talk that does them no good. They get the
idea that there are easier ways of making money than the
slow path of patient industry. They see many things that
they want, and they know it will take them a long time to get
tlicrrt if they just depend on the money they can cam. They
ham from various sources of all kinds of lawlessness that
are going on. When some tempter suggests to them that it
will be easy for them to get some money by some deed of
evil, many oi them are in just the mood to accept the sugges
tion. The trouble began months or years before, when fam
ily government lost its hold on them.

""' The distressing disaster that befell the submarine S-51,
is viewed with profound regret by the American people. ' It
seems doubly tragic coming so soon after the dreadful col
lirjTSe of the airship Shenandoah. Our people would like to
ttltnk that tlicir sailors and soldiers could at least perform
tjjeir duties in peace times with a reasonable degree of safe
ly. But such accidents show that these forms of service in
volve their hazards even in a time of profound peace. But
it' 1 possible to minimize these hazards. With every year
tfiatlpasses, the perils that attach to the navigation of the air,
alid in the use of submarine craft, will grow less. Our navy
eld army men are tireless investigators and scientific think
ers. The causes of these disasters will serve as object les-f-gns
to promote the Bafety of these services in future.
' o
X A well known clergyman, in his prayer of a few Sundays
njjo, offered the petition that instead of finding fault with
the way the world goes, we should all look into our own
hearts and ask ourselves whether we are honest and kind
aJid-iielpful as we ought to -be. Thereupon ho spoke a
searching truth that would hit a good many folks. It i.1 of
ten 'noticeable that the people who are the most censorious,
are, themselves lacking in their relutions to the community.
The man who finds fault the most bitterly, because he thinks
i tj)e community is not efficiently governed, may be failing to
take his share in the work of carrying on that government.
The man who complains the most volubly of lack of enter-1
pi, may himself not too lifting a finger for progress. We
flted not merely hypercriticism, but self criticism. I

THE JAPANESE SUIT.
' Five clUtena of japan hay
brought auit In tha district court
agalnat the leader of the nob
wtitcb last July compelled them to
leave their homes In Toledo..
The Japanese are here In accord
ance with a treaty between the
United States and the Japanese
government which bolds them,
while In this country, subject - to
our law and entitled to Its protec
tion. The point at issue Is not the
desirability of their presence, but
Its legality. A to the first, there
may be cotne difference of opinion:
as to the aecond, there can be none.
Americans suffering any sort of.
molestation abroad have always
been quick to demand retribution.
The Japanese compliment us by in
voking ouly tile power ot our own
courts, relying upon tbem for the
full redress to which they are en
titled. It is to be hoped that their
confidence will prove Justified and,
that there will be no necessity for'
making the regrettable Toledo inci
dent the subject of formal diplo
matic inquiry.
As The Telegram said at the
time, laws have little effect upon
deep seated instincts. If Japanese
and American laborera do not "get
on" together, it is impolite to cre
ate conditions that result in un
pleasant difficulties. That, how
ever, is not now the question. Tbe
dignity and honor of the United
States demand that these Japan
ese guests, here under the implied
Invitation ot our treaty, receive
amends for injustice and discour

Church Union a Step Nearer.
The overwhelming vote by which
the Methodist Episcopal confer
ence of Oregon indorsed the plan
for amalgamation of the so-called
northern and southern divisions of
the denomination is perhaps a sign
of the times. It is but a super
ficial estimate, however, to say that
it is related to waning Interest in
the topic which originally caused
their separstion. That was settled
long go, and the genius of the
later plan of union Is growing real
ization of the wastefulness, not to
say futility, of continued schism
based oa no issne whatever that is
worth quarreling over. In creed.
In ethical purpose, and, above alt.
In desire to see a wider application
of religion lo the affairs o." every
day life the two organisations -re
one.
The aid of practical church union
ists Is not at present to form all
Christian churches, of whatever
form of organization and whatever
shades of theological opinion. Into
one vest body, but Is to recognise
the utilitarian value of reasonable
emulation and the suitability, too,
of various major denominations to
the different temperaments of In
dividuals, Tet Canada recently
showd the way to union on a
rather extensive scale, and there la
hope In the United States that a
beginning may be made by consoli
dating the organizations which
bsve least reason for remaining
apart.
Action in Canada has been facili
tated by the circumstance that it
has a larger relative rural and
semi-rural population than has the
United States. In this country the
Issue la leas pressing in
cltlea
which are able to austain active
cnurcnea man In non-urban twl -
light zones, where overchurchlng
frequently assumes the proportions
of a tragedy of inefficiency. The
number of struggling less-than-half
financed, Inadequately staffed coun-
try churches which are falling aa

their forces are dlsslpsted in puer
ile contention Is very large and con
stitutes a major problem In the

Pierce la Waking Up,
Governor Pierce'a belated reali
sation of his duty to Interest him
self in property assessments is a
welcome sign. Inequality of
property assessments is an evil
which cries for correction. If
property is equally assessed under
the law, the tax burden will be
distributed where It ought to be.
Unfortunately, the governor can
do little more than mess things
up so far as the assesments of thla
year are concerned. They are
practically completed, and soon
will be certified by the various
county equalising boarda.
Hut the governor can do a kt
ot good for next year In open-
Inc the Question before the asses-i
sors when they confront the state
jtax commission this next month,
i He can find out whether they
have assessed according to law,
uncover ' Instances of sunpected
undervaluation and enforce lawful
assessments aa to next year.
Fpr Instance, the return made
under the repealed state ncome
tax law set up definite valuation
of property. The state tax com
mission ias all these return be
fore It. It can compare these
amounts with the assessed values
ot the same property. The public
cannot have access to these In-
come tax returns, so the tax com-
make public apeclflc comparisons
I by counties or otner groups ana
show up whether tbere are flag'
rant discrepancies. -
Governor Pierce has been car-
'rying around a list of alleged dts-
icrepancles, compiled lor mm irom
tai commission records. He Is
using this list. in. his stump
speeches, waving it arouna me
same as he used to wave arouna
tax return before tearing It In
two aa an example of how he
would reduce ts.xes if elected.
State Treasurer Tom Kay has a
similar list, but is not wsvlng it
around o much. Lndoubteuiy
the list will be put to effective
use when the tax commission
meets, for Kay is an effective
fman
Let's tear tbe situation wide

done to all. You can discredit
the cause of tax reform by play

Unanimous Approval Given :
to Plan for Systematic
Campaign,
WILL MAKE
saving;
Proposed Plan Will Elimi-
nate Much Expense and
Give More Money
; for, Charity,
A community chest campaign,
sponsored by the Chamber of
Commerce, will be undertaken la
this city within the very near
future, it waa definitely decided
at the meeting of the Civics Com
mittee of the Chamber vesterdav
evening. Unanimous approval
waa given tbe community chest
plan, immediate steps to get the
campaign under way being pro-
posea.
The community cbest plan Is
one which baa been adopted in
practically all leading cities, and
has proven the most satisfactory
method of carrying on charitable
and benevolent work. Instead of
each organization and deserving
cause having Us own special cam
paign and drive, all are grouped
in. one big fund which Is handled
by a board ot directors, and mo
ney expended only after careful
Investigation.
The community chest would
take care of such local organiza
tions as the Boy Scouts, Salva
tion Army, et., aa well as for
local relief. Tbere would be
contributions to tbe W. C. T. U.
children's home, protection homes,
of the atate. Near Last relief, and
other auch Institutions and causes.
It is roughly estimated that in
a city the size of Kosekurg the
community chest saves the mer
chants and professional men ap
proximately IS. 000, betides dis
tributing tbe burden of charit
able work more equitably.
Tbe saving cornea not through
failure on the part of city resi
dents to give a liberally, but
through the fact that people are
not required to pay the expensea
of prolonged drives.
It la conservatively estimated
that In raising $600 for some
charitable purpose, by an outside
organization, an-expense of 200
oi more Is incurred. - A director
Is required to make several trips
to the1 city, his expenses must be
met, stationery and priming must
be Daid for. nostage is required.
and numerous other expenses pile
up In every campaign. Two-fifths
ot money paid, therefore, is used
for collection purposes, so tbst
through the community cbest plan
gift of S300 will give the in
stitution aa much money as It
would otherwise receive, while
the 1200 which the drive costs,
la saved for some other good
work.
This, however, is only one sav
ing which results. Another comes
through the fact that relief work
la properly conducted.
Tbere is never a day when busl
oesa men of the city are not ap
proached by some person having
a long tale nf woe which they are
using as a basis for an appeal for
financial aid. Many of theso are
prcfesplonals In this Hue of graft
In,:, living by such m-.iai and
methods.
0H la not the person that cries
the loudest for help thst needs It
most,1 J. W. Mclntnrff, a direc
tor in the Marshfleld community
chest fund told the Civics Corn
suites yesterday. 'At Marjhfleld
we found many cases of dire ne
cessity, whore help w badly
needed but never asked foi When
we approached these people they
refused charity In most cairns. In
sisting ttAt they would work nut
their own case In some way. We
got around this attitude by offer
ing them a loan, letting them
aire their note as security, and
we bave never yet failed to re
ceive payment on these notes, and
have often been able to provide
assistance where It was really
needed. Instead of giving to every
case where a tale of woe was ex
pounded. "Contrast this with oRier caws
which we helped before the Com
munity cheat Idea was adopted.
There was one family of which
my wife and I heard, their great
est need being for flour, and un
derwear for the children. We
took out a sack of flour and sev
eral suit of underwear, only to
find that several families - had
been ahead of us and there were
four sacks of flour and a house
ful of underwear while there waa
a pitiful lark of other necessities.

Aali Dad
See IS He Knowc
Father and mother are always think-.
ing of your welfare thfere isn't a thing .
within reason they wouldn't do for you.
But they may unknowingly liave been
risking your life every day..
When you are at dinner tonight with
. dad, ask him this question:
"Dad, is our school firesafe?" -
Perhaps he won't be ablatio answer
fie may not know.
Ask dad if he knows that somewhere
in the country a schoolhouse burns every
day. Ask him ii he knows that one-third
of all the schoolhouses in the country are
nothing better than firetraps maybe
your school is one of them.
Of course dad knows that buildings
can be built that will not burn. They are. ,
being built everywhere, every day.
If your school is firesafe, you're lucky.
If it isn't, ask dad what he is going to do
about it. You have a right to know.
