Editorials
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
JJERE is a random paragraph ab-
stracted from the news of the
day:
"The familiar staccato of gang
land spoke for the second time
within two weeks today and Joe
Porrello, latest Cleveland bootleg
sugar baron, aud Sam Tllocco, his
first lieutenant, are dead."
WJERK Is another random para
graph:' "Only a block from
the Milano restaurant, Charles Ve
lotta, aged 28, alleged gangster
and 'muscle man,' was slain last
week, his body torn by shotgun
slugs."
AND here Is another one:
"Jack Zuta was too much
afraid of bullets to come out of
hiding today. Zuta was especial
ly wanted by the police since the
attack on him four days ago, au
thorities viewing this assault as an
attempt by rival gangsters to
avenge the killing of Llugle."
yHESE paragraphs, culled
sketchily from one day's news,
paint an amazing picture of law
lessness in our great cities, and if
in the rush and hurry of making a
living you have forgotten many of
the things you learned in school,
you will be inclined to say:
"Here is something new in the
world. Nothing like this EVER
HAPPENED before. What are we
mining to?"
VOU will be wrong. Lawloss-
Hess isn't new in the world.
Even GANG WARFARE Isn't new
In the world. Both are very, very
old Indeed.
IN your school days, you read
Romeo and Juliet, so of course
you know something of the feud
existing between the Montagues
and Capulets. All through Shakes
peare's writings runs the thread
of sudden battle In the streets.
And you will certainly recall
without difficulty the tales of rob
ber barons of Germany, who forti
fied themselves in strong castles
and levied a toll on all the trade
that passed.

Additional locations for filming
the final scenes of the Fox super

lected by Leo Shaw, of Hollywood,
who Is to remain In Roseburg to
prepare the sets prior fl the arrival
of the ItiO members of the cast who

The final scenes are to he made
in Oregon, and the company has
tentatively selected a site 24 miles
west of Roseburg on Camas moun

locating such a site, that would
meet transportation and other

be near enough to the city to per

a letter confessing the murder of
a playmate here 35 years ago was
being sought today by Fresno po
lice. The letter, signed "A Repent

truth of its assertions. Whether
the confessor would seek the rela
tives of liis alleged victim and con
fess personally to them, as he
promised In the letter, remained to
be seen.
"About 30 or 35 years ago." said
the letter, "I poisoned my child
hood playmate In Fresno, a little
boy by the name of Conrad Bern
ard. He was supposed to have died
from natural causes and no one
baa ever suspected the cause of
his death.
"Will you please publish the
name and address of any member
of his family now living, that I
may locate them and personally
confess my deed to them? I am
compelled to sign this communica
tion anonymously because if I did
not the officers might interfere be

SAN FItANCISCO, July ft.
While gasoline prices ranged from
eight to fourteen cents a gallon on
tbe Pacific coast today, rumors in

was a fight to the finish with the
possible extermination of weaker
companies.
Tacoma motorists were buying
gasoline at eight cents, at Los An
geles it sold at ten cents, Seattle
at eleven to thirteen cents with
similar prices here. It was slight
ly higher at other points.
Oil company officials admitted
the present gas war was tbe most
serious crisis ever faced by dis
tributors of gasoline in California.
An independent dealers association
representing 140 Sun Francisco
dealers asked Governor Young to
class oil companies and gasoline
distributors as public utilities un
der jurisdiction of the stale rail
road commission. The group also
threatened to sell gasoline at
wholesale prices next week unless
prices were immediately stabilized.
Herbert II. McMillan, vice-president
of the McMillan Petroleum
company, announced he would ask
for federal intervention. Charging
that gasoline is selling 7J cents he
low production cost "obviously to
Injure comnetitors and lessen com
petition through unfair trade
tactics."
McMillan said the Clayton net
and code of ethics of the federal
trade commission were being vio
lated. An appeal will he made to
tbe department of justice for a
