Wolfnre: workers nro endeavor
lug to flguro out why flaming
youth flames up and appropriates
aulas belonging to1 other people,
for joyriding purposes. . It lit due
to the laziness of the owner of the
' auto, who 1h too shiftless to re
' move the key., By so doing, he
saves himself the tremendous tuHk
of putting t back whenever he
returns from wherever he has
been.- Thus he prevents & drain
on his physical strength, and men
tal reserve.' The joyriders will
continue to joyfully borrow autos
with keys left m the car. Often,
.the auto owner, who has no pock
ets In his punts, becomes ustute
and hides the key under the floor
mat This always outwits the Joy
riders, until they look under the
'mat. By parking the auto In a
dsrk alley, contrary to city ordi
nance, and leaving the key In Its
socket,- contrary to commonHcnse,
the probability of the auto being
stolen, Is heightened a lot. You
can't Illume the joyriders. Every
body was young once, und burned
down burns, robbed bunks, und
stole horses. 1 1

MURDER FOR FLOWERS
CIIRYSANTTIEMUS und (Mts were in' nviilciiec, wo read, ut
tho recent wedding of Mr. Scurfuce Al Capoiic'H hister in
Cicero, a Capone suburb of the great city of Cliieaso. That is
a picturestiuu fart. A les piettires(tie but more useful fact i
that the gatx paid for the flir.v.saiilliciiiiims. '
Out of sheer KcncroHity, we have also read, Mr. Capone
inaiiitaius a wiup kitehen for jobless men. He does not have to
(lo it. He wins no great publle H.vinpatliy thereby, and any pop
ularity campaign on his part would be as fruitless ns it would he
necessary. The soup kitehen is i lire generosity. I5ut gats and
machine guns enable Mr. Capone to indulge this kindly quality.
1 And, let it be understood, the lethal weapons of gangland arc
employed in a manner that has no romance in it. '
' " .,.
THE easiest'uud Kufest man to terrorize is the man who has no
friends, little money, no means of defense. Such persons
small tradesmen, workmen, petty, grafters filling obscure jobs
in one racket or another are the persons gangland terrorizes.
Gangland, when it kills, kills on the same 'principle. The easiest
and safest way to kill a man is to put hiiii on the spot, nil un
aware, defenseless, alone. That is the' way gangland uses its
machine guns and gats.
Gangland 's displays, flaunting the profits of lawlessness in
the face of lawful society, are picturesque. Hut they arc also
ugly. Their ugliness i the more iiielusivo and more important
quality.
Commercialized crime is a Sordid, mean-spirited and thor
oughly contemptible business., phrysanthomums bought by mur

SHOWS
A DVKH.SFTY, not prosperity, brings oiil a nation's real
strength, says l'aul Shoup, president of the Southern Pa
cific. Forty-two million Americans who are normally, gainfully
employed, without counting those who nre gainfully employed
in "marathon races, tree-sitting and on the miniature golf
courses," are being brought to their senses, Mr. Shoup believes.
His own Observation shows that depression is relative. There
is a business depression for some all of the time, and for all of
the people some of the time. The waiter who asked him the
cause of the Wall Street panic and was told that it was a finan
cial crisis for a number of people, answered: "Oh, that doesn't
menu anything to mi!. I have one of those nt the end of every
nioiiih."
.
SO, AVlfliOUT indulging in ideals of the I'ollyaima sort, the
head of the big railroad company says times require co-operation,
not panaceas. And: '
The strongest elements of character, self-discipline, a reali
zation of oblignti'Uis, the extending of a helping hand where
needed, a co-ordination of 6ur views .sonstructivjly with those
of othersj'theso and other calls tipon character, upon our cour
age, our resourcefulness, our understanding and our kindliness
find, in the response, Whether or no we arc truly a great people
or merely niake-fieliovej of the fair weather variety.
Wise words these, but not wiser than Mr. jShoup's proposal
that private business, as vcl ns . government agencies, do all in
its power to show that resourcefulness in the hour of test that
best assures the better tomorrow.
THE PARDON CASE
N ITS incessant striving for sensations, tho Portland Telegram
l is savagely attacking Governor Norblad for having pardoned
Charles Vonderahe, convicted of
tilla county and sentenced in l!)2i! to life imprisonment, and is
trying to manufacture' n scandal out of it. ,
As to the guilt or innocence of Vonderahe, wc know nothing,
but 'we know there was b strong presumption of innoeence in
the evidence laid before the Governor, who exercised his discre
tion to the best of his judgment, as ho is supposed to do. .
Teh of the 'trial jurors petitioned for pardon, as did over 400
people of filial ilia county. Senator Steiwer, who was a defense
attorney, slated that there are
guilt and that n pardon would he "an act of simple justice. The
trial judge admitted that u mistake might have been made. The
sheriff of Walla WallH county, closely identified with the ease,
sat- that (he real murderer is still at large and Vonderahe is in
nocent. Other testimony along the same line is in the record.
Governor Xorhlad in nearly a year of office has issued 17
pardons with a record prison population, fewer than any of his
Vredeeessors, and cannot be a.'cused of undue activity in empty
ing the prison.Saleiit (,'apital -
Another improvement. Hy reducing the legal size of taxi
cabs in New York It is how possible for one pedestrian to he hit
by three cabs at the same time.
"Thirty thousand homeless in New York." An American
citizen is truly in a bud fix when he has no home to stay away
from.
It is ridiculous that liquor will ever bedegalized in this coun
try. Al Capone wouldn't allow it, .

WHAT YOU TIIIXK
THINK?
I went right on struggling with
the cockroaches and tho birth con
t rollers. Anyhow, when I hauled
the big one in It proved to be
xx characteristically unmoral Idea,
to wit. why not just send all these,
or, individuals, who ask for sure
fire birth control remedies a hand
ful of cockroach exterminator and
tell them to take it In one dose
on retiring. As an alibi, I could
plead aberration of mind and so
explain that I simply got my ans
wers mixed. In corroboration of
that I could point out the healthy
growth of the cockroach popula
tion. Were it not for the annoy
ing moral and legal drawbacks,
this solution, at least to my mind,
would be entirely adequate. I sin
cerely think cockroaches are harm
less -creatures and it is cruel to
kill them. On the other hand,
birth controllers, especially child
less or one child people who un
dertake to limit the offspring of
tho lower classes lower in their
smug conceit might well bo ex
terminated for the greater happl
ness of the world.

Parents
ANTAGONISMS
1 By Alice Judson Peale '
The antagonisms which exist be
twoen parents and children and be
tween brothers and sisters nre not
generally admitted, although they
are always present in every family
in greater or less degree.
Children cause their parents in
evitable limitations lu personal
freedom and in the pursuit of
pleasure. They demand sacrifices
in time, energy and money.
Only a really mature individual
is in a position to meet the de
mands of parenthood without feel
ing a certain amount of resentment
toward the child who occasions
them. '
Then, too, there are the antago
nisms which arise from the real
or fancied resemblance of a child
to some relative with whom the
parent has unpleasant associations.
Many a boy or girl grows up re
minded constantly that he is just
like an uncle or an nunt or a grand
parent who was a ne'er-do-well.
Perhaps the most common and
persistently unrecognized cause, ol'
antagonism in the family circle is
found in Jealousy. One parent is
jealous of the attention which the
other parent lavishes upon a child.
Brothers and sisters are jealous
of eacli other because of tho un
equal distribution of affection and
attention.
Parents who are not in harmony
with each other frequently project
their difficulties upon their chil
dren, centing .their unhappiness
and. disappointment upon the pro
duct of their unsatisfactory union.
To he fully aware of what an
tagonisms actually exist ' in the
circle of our own home is to be
able in some degree to control the
situation.
