Out On the Limb.
Our Gambling Craze.
Grave Alice Is Gone.
If Big Steel Should Fight.
(Copyright, 1828, by Star Co.)
Another sad day in Wuii
Struct for laiicbs that just
(:uess, or, worse still, (ret tips,
and then buy. Many out on
the margin limb wore shaken
off. They learn, too late, that
'"don't gamble" is sound ad-
Call money dropped from 12
to 9 per cent Thursday, hut
that did not help the weaklings.
Twelve per cent, or 4 per pent,
makes no difference, if you
have no collateral.
An intelligent banker with a
cold blue eye says, "You should
tell the j.ublic that TI1KY.
with their craze for stock gam
bling, cause the high interest
rates, the banks are not respon
sible." True as gospel, the public
with its sudden wealth, and
sloek gambling mania, cause
high interest rates, lint that is
understood, as shown by laws
against usury. It is for finan
ciers, doctors of the money and
.stock markets, to prevent a
.stampede, and protect business
generally, for their own safety.
Stock gambling ruins many
but that is only part of the
damage. It interferes with busi
ness, takes the public mind from
work.
I A yonutt lintn ivorkiug tor
'rS0 a wccls, making 10(H) "in
I he market, on (lie side," soon
looks with L'outeiupt on his job
mid his $H0. That's the onil of
liim. .
However, "the only way to
iliseoni'a.irc viee is to make it
expensive," and Wall Street, if
you stiek to it, will make the
gambling vieo very expensive.
f
The country is all right, val
ues are. here, and will stay.
Sonic prices are below', us some
arc above it, and the foolish
can leani only from their own
experiejiee. No child thinks
the fire is hot, at first sight.
There are bright spots, the
sun is shining somewhere. Tn
S'etober, for instance, railroads
eat their records, for all time.
Receipts were up d.'i per cent,
and the extra expense nponly
0..'i. That's good for dividends
and stock owkners. The man
agement should pass some of it
along to.railroad workers. Pros.
pcrity is built on high wages, i
not on high dividends.
Fortunately the tuition's bis
ter income is not nil invested
in stoek margins. It is spent
for necessities, including auto
mobiles, radio, vaeunm clean
ers, electric washers, and other
purchases, making stocks w orth
more.

Examination to . Con
tinue for Possible Lead in
Murder Mystery.
.NEW YORK. Dec. S. ll'l In
spection of the business files of
Arnold llolhstoin, slain gambler, !
by federal agents investigating the ;
activities of tin international nar- I
cotlc syndicate, has resulted in the I
arrest of a man in lluffalo, n worn- j
an in Chicago, and the seizure of
three trunks full of narcotics.
The man nrrested In lluffalo,
taken from an express train as he
was taking two trunks to Chicago,
I is known in the underworld as Jus
j cph Klein, federal officials ait
; nounend, but his real name is Jos
eph Timer. The woman, arrested
In the Hotel North Sheridan, t'hl- t
engo, with another trunk full of !
narcotics, is .Mrs. June ltoyd. !
The narcotics seized here had an i
estimated value of ?'J.i)ii0.l")0. ,
"This seizure." f-aid f. S. Attor
ney Tuttle, is a very large frac
tion of the narcotic supply of the
biggest narcotic ring In the I'nlted
States. Tin? ti pers wo have seized
and other evidence In our posses
sion Indicate that Arnold Koth-
stein had to do with financing this I
ring. :
"It Is not improbable that an ;
examination of the Itolhstein pa- I
pers which we have seized and uf :
other files which we are examln- j
iua. when they were taken over
throw Important light on the mo
tle..M ;.H,1 .liiiimsl.iii, i-s of I loth - '

them pcrlalnliiB to Ilothsteln's bail
