Naming "' a commission to
study law enforcement, Presi
dent Hoover wisely includes
one woman, lr. Ada L. Corn
stock. , Her experience as an edu
cator will enable her to tell
other members that the turn
toward crime is taken in child
hood. Furthermore,-women's com
mon sense often enables them
to take short cuts that men
would not fiud.
Secretary ACelloii "wil not
resign. He himself is authority
for that statement. : . , ;
That is good news for tlie
whole country, particularly
good news for President Hoo
ver, who understands business
and knows what it means to
have in the treasury the ablest
business man in America.
Mr. . Mellon ' says, quoting
Benjamin Franklin, "I am de
ficient, I am afraid, in the
Christian virtue ' of resignation."-
;.o
We are prosperous. ' The nu
toombile industry proves it.
In April 20,(156 automobiles
were produced, at the rate of
nearly 8,500,000 automobiles a
year. -. ,
''
Scars Roehuok, it - is said,
will enter, the automobile field
with a car lower in prico than
any now on the market.
Cien. Wood, ..heort of Sears
Uocbuck,' admits that the firm:
is considering automobile dis
tribution, adding ; that Sears
Roebuck' never market any
thing that requires ', service,
once it is old. ,
: However, if Gen. Wooil can'
sell 1,000,000 cars o year at a
low enough price,, service will
spring up quickly enough. He
now sells more automobile tires
than any other concern in the
world. . : .

FJisa Valerio, aged one year,
was smuggled into this coiin
try by her young Italian
mother, as a stowaway on the
liner President, Wilson.
. You can't da that sort of
thing in this proud govern
ment, and Elisa will be deport
ed with her mother.
" ' ' It seems a pity not to keep
the youngest stowaway on rec
ord. For all we know, Eli'sa
Valerio' may .be a direct de
scendant of Christopher Co
lumbus. , ,
j Perhaps some vaudeville or
moving picture institution will
give guarantees necessary to
keep ' the energetic y,o u n g
.mother and her baby in Amer
ica. ':'.. . i
Every country, needs such
mothers. :" . I
The mother of William the
Conqueror whom, tbo Dnko of
Normfltidy first met when she
was washing clothes ' in a
brook, Was something like
Klisu VaWio's mother, un
douhtedly. '
On May 30, Pope Pius will
leave the Vatican, taking part
personolly in t h Corpus
Christ i procession to St. Peter's
square.
No pope has left the Vatican
in 5!) years. The predecessors
of Pope Pius, sin.ie 3870, knew
that their election meant the
rest of life, and then death,
within t lie vatiean walls.

ing $20,000 of that Issue to be sold

its Investigation of other air
ports and seeking advice of well
known aviation authorities, that
$100,000 will build a well equipped
airport sufficient for present needs.

to hold back as much of the $120,
