IT IS heartening and refreshing in these disturbed" tlme, to
find a man going the even tenor of his way, hewing straight
to the line, of public duty, regardless of the noise and fury all
about him.
Such men are rare. They are even rare on the judicial
bench, for good judges, even more than good poets, are BORN
not made. There is some exceptional quality, inherent in their
character, from birth, which givea them, regardless of outside
stress and strain, that selflessness and detachment, which allows
them always to choose between what is right and just, and
what ISN'T.
XE believe we are merely voicing the opinion of the people
' of Jackson county, when we say this community is in
deed fortunate in having such a man as judge in this district,
Mr. H. D. Norton.
Judge Norton's decision in the Tollefson case is a fair
example of his wisdom, his fairness, hia courage.
It was a difficult position for the court. On one side were
those claiming that if Tollefson wasn't given "the limit," it
would show there is one justice for the rich and another for
the poor. They were clamoring for as severe a term, as another
young bank robber, without friends or money behind him,
suffered.
On the other side were many citizens of the highest standing
in Jackson county, influential friends of the young man and
his family who urged that an exception be made in his case,
and no PRISON sentence be imposed, at all.

UDGE NORTON refused to follow oither course. Expressing
the GREATEST sympathy for the parents, and only good
will toward the unfortunate young man, he held that family
connections or social position should have nothing to do with
such a case, that in hia view there were no extenuating ciroum-
stances, and he sentenced the defendant to prison for two years.

The most likely explanation is that the New Jersey police,
in their real to pin this atrooious crime upon SOMEONE, and
atone for their poor judgment and incompetency in the past,
lost their heads. They went too far, and before the bar of
publio opinion, they face a charge of involuntary homicide as
a result.
A SIMILAR explanation alone, can explain the fact, that the
police were so lax in their combing of the ground near
the Lindbergh estate, that two months passed before the baby 'a
body was found, only a few milea from where it was taken.
And a third count is the faiture of the police to keep the dis
covery of the body secret, so that negotiations then going on
with the alleged kidnapers could have been carried on, to a
successful conclusion. Under such circumstances, the capture
of the kidnapers, or the oriminals trying to profit by the kid

From first to last it ii a bad record for the New Jersey
police, and the sooner the direction of the search is taken from

dissension over prohibition complete'
ly engulfed the chosen represents-
ttves of the party today on the eve
of their national convention.
To t.ie general and rear-rank pri
vate alike, what to do about the dry
law became the one big question.
Not only were they ready to renom
inate President Hoover, but sentl
ment was turning definitely to Vice-
President Curtis for his running mate
and all of the ltcer disputes over
platform and procedure seemed head
ed for harmonious decision.
No Harmony Expected
No one any longer expected har
mony on prohibition. The prediction
of a plank "acceptable to all of us1
had gone up in Vie smoke of the
most furious platform battle any Re
publican convention has seen since
the League of Nations row in ivw.
Haggard snd plainly discouraged
after many hours of conference, the
high commanders of the party con
tinued their efforts at a compromise
while Indignant drys and Insistent
wets hammered at their doors.
A much-revised version of the
plank brought from Washington after
long consultation with President
Hoover remained the testing block
of their labors. It declares for re
submission of the question to the
people, but recommends neither re
peal, retention nor modification.
Drys Denounce Proposal
Organized dry, in a continuous
succession of rallies yesterday and
today, denounced the proposal aa in
sipid and Insidious.
Some spoke bitterly of betrayal at
the hands of the president they trust
ed. Dr. P. Scott Mc Bride declared
Mr. Hoover could never hope to be
elected on such a platform.
The wets were quite as critical, and
they gave tangible evidence of an
impressive strength smong the dele
gates. Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler,
whose home state of New York voted
last night to throw its strength for a
plauk declaring for resubmission of
repeal amendment, denounced the
Washington creation as hypocritical
and childish.
It win be Wednesday before any
sort of plank comes out of the com
mittee. Tomorrow's opening session
will be short, devoted to first formal
ities and to the keynote of Senator
h. J. Dickinson of Iowa.
Wednesday is platform day, and
Thursday is to see the nominations

The statement Is msda that "Pro

stated that "the dry lawa have made

of money." We mleht Just as well say I Oold

in the case, you will find that pro
hibition has enriched very few viola
tors of the law. Every rule almost has
It exception. Some "wets" hsve man
aged to get on the prohibition pay
roll In order that they mlgt betray
the "dry" cause. When It becomes
necessary for them to resign, they
made some money by making false
statement that prohibition "cannot
bs enforced."
'The total cost of enforcement,
1.30 to 1931. was .3B4.lS6.s34. Collec
tion from fines and penalties and

Indicates that there Is a good eco
nomic argument on the dry aide of
the debate."
When Al Capons was on his way to
Atlanta to begin serving his sentence,
he made one statement that ahould
carry weight, even tho most of his
statements have not. It was this:
"Anybody that aaya I'm for prohibi
tion la all wet. It would be better if j
prohibition was out of the way and
w could handle beer legitimately.
There would be more profits, no pay
offs, no less of trucks and a cheaper
price for the atuff." This, coming
from the "king pin of the gsngsters,"
ought to tet at rest the argument
that "prohibition has opened up a
safe and comfortable living for those
who make a business of violstlng it"
It shows thst besting prohibition !s
a hard and dangerous game, that it
must be played under cover and that
those who carry It on must be con
stantly on the qui vlve.

PLAYING HOl'SE
By AUce Judson Peale
The classic game of childhood,
"playing house" what does It reslly
mesn to the children?
They sweep snd cook, go to bed,
bring up a family of dolls with all
sorts of disciplinary measures, call
the doctor, prescribe medicines, give
parties, and dramatize the family
dinner table.
Educators have Interpreted this
sort of play aa being atmply a pleas
ure In mlmlcy. In Imitating and re.
peatlng the activities of that part
of the adult world of which children
know most.
Many an adult, watching, haa had
the uncomfortable feeling that the
children have sized up the weak
nesses of their elders and are mak
ing fun of them In their own way.
Yet probably the children are
really doing something quite differ
ent. The game of playing house Is
the best means of working out other
wise suppressed feelings about va
rious things.
In playing the roles of father
and mother, children Identify them
selves with them, assume their pow
er and privileges.
The heavy punishments from time
to time begalllng various dolls are
the expression of cruel and re
vengeful wishes which they may feel
toward brothers and sisters or to
ward some oppressive grownup.
or sgam a doll 1 much loved
and pampered, Just as they wish
they were. It Is allowed unheard of
privileges and leads a life which Is
a round of pleasure Just as they wish
they themselves could do.
Probably the real worth of playing
house lies less In the opportunity It
offers for the correlation and clarify
ing of the children's observations of
the world about them than In the
direct outlet It offers for a number
of their most compelling wishes.
