Well, perhaps the wealthy oil magnate has just cause for grievance. It is true, at least, that Ihu vSuprenie Court exoner ated him of any moral turpitude us far as his conviction for contempt of court was concerned And it was this conviction that put him in jitil. It is also tr,uc that jiiany newspapers have piHSiuued he' was guilty of attempted, jury bribery; although he' was .acquitted on this charge. ' ' U. XDKIt the circumstances it seems only good sportsmanship to give Jfr. Sinclair the benefit of the doubt. He says lie cannot be contrite for sins which he kiiowg ho has' never com mitted j nor pretend to be ashamed of conduct, which ho knows to have been upright. Well Mr. Sinclair KXOWS. No one else does. If his con science is perfectly clear, he has the greatest asset any man in his position can possess. Nor need he worry, for he can safely leave his vindication to the beneficent band of Father Time. So the American press and consider the present incident closed. Let Mr. Sinclair demon strate, by his future conduct, that, lie has been unjiistjy as sailed, and that he is a better citizen than many of us have sup posed. And during this process it might be well to remember that the corner stone of American jurisprudence is the assumption that every man is innocent whose 'guilt, beyond a reasonable doubt, has NOT been proved. A HERO IMAGIXK the state of mind country and Russia were at Xaniik and Stavropol, were American transports, held by Rus sians, instead of tho Arctic ice, and Pilot Kiclson were attempt' ing to rescue American soldiers in time of war, instead oE a poly glot assemblage of crew and passengers in time of peace. ' How the papers would emblazon this heroic dcac and all the peoplo pray for Kiclson 's safety and success. Hut as it is, this truly heroic incident occupies it subordinate place in the day's news, and the American people as u whole pay slight attention to it. Till') situation calls attention to two things: First, that there is a heroism of peace, as well as of! war; and second, that until what the bite William James termed a moral substitute for war is secured, the struggle for world peace is bound to be a difficult one. In Man's attempt to conquer the air, however, and in such instances of self-sacrificing devotion as this, there seems to us, a suggestion ot that moral substitute. Isn't it possible that in peaceful aviation, the forces of Nature can supply a hostile force, sufficiently lormidiible.to satisfy, thai coiulmtive instinct which heretofore. 1ms aspired solely to deeds of glory upon the battlefield? . PKRIfAI'S not. Jlut at least the thought is worthy of serious consideration. And toward such an end, we believe the American press can render a real service, by giving such hero ism as Pilot Kiclson has displayed the emphasis that such a spirit of bravery and self-sacrifice deserves, whether it happens in time of peace or in time of war.

It Is the study and treat ment of mental tliseases. The pub lic Is becoming familiar with the -term psychopathic, from rending about psychopathic wards in hos pitals where patients suspected of insanity are studied, or psycho pathic personalities which crim inal lawyers discover In certain murderers about the time tho jury begins to feel klnda sorry for the poor wretch now that his victim is out of sight and out of mind.'
