j AI'TER AUTO TlIIRVES
A bill was recently passed by the lower branch of the
Iuisiann legislature, making it a felony to steal an automo
bile or a part. This is severe, but current conditions call
for severity. Auto thievery is getting to be one of the
Wore serious nnd frequent crimes from which the public
puffers. Checking automobile thefts ought to help a little
to check some of tho crimes committed with tho aid of
stolen cars.
: . Just enacting taws, however, is not enough. They need
to lie enforced both by established authorities and by pub
lic opinion. Along with laws, all the other elements which
it iri hoped will lessen crime must lie studied and made ef
fective use of as fast as understanding and knowledge
permit. . .' . . -, ' ;
V NEWSPAPERS HERE AND AHU0AD
- An American correspondent in Berlin, who wrote a dec
ade ago that "the German press is a national calamity," says
he is more than ever strengthened in that opinion- Ho finds
that a recent statement of his, to the effect that anyone
who wants to be half-way informed about developments in
Ciemutny should read at least four nerlin newspapers, was
loo mild. You can read all the papers in Berlin, he says
and Berlin has more than New York and still be "as far
from any conception of what really has happened as if you
had read none."
German newspapers simply do not print tho news. Tf
they do seem to attempt it, honestly, still tho mode of pre
schtation is unintelligible. They print great quantities of
reading matter which contains little information. And
what seems clear nnd direct may be false. This indictment
would probably stand for the press of most of the other
European countries. ' Some print much professed news, and
some little, but an American can seldom find out from them
what is happening there or elsewhere in the world. F.ng
lish papers are less objectionable than other, pcrhnps, be
cSUse less biassed and less used as individual organs, but
they overwhelm rentlci-s with dry masses of unimportant or
uninteresting matter.
- American newspapers have their faults, but they do
print the news. Whether in metropolis or small town, the
reader of his local paper seldom misses what is happening
at home and throughout the world. The critics of our press
bhould try reading foreign newspapers for a while, and see
the difference. ,
