Of late there has been much

common sense manner have proven
mora groundless than usual. At the

that "a bunch of 13 year old boya
would do a better Job." Thla roused
the esteemed Bslem 6tatsmsn, and It
rushed fearlessly to the rescue of the

and It waa charged the legislature

tended them for the gross alsnder.
The IJtatesmsn la 7ft years or more
of sge, and still has faith In legisla

law prohibiting them from longer re
taining thla faith.
He Can't Take It
This new generation, for example, la not content with
preachings against that Til form of collective murder lynch
law which ha broken out In our midst anew. We know that
It la murder and a deliberate and definite disobedience of the
. commandment, Thou Shalt not kill.' We do not excuse those
In high places or In low who condone lynch law.
"But a thinking America goes further. It seeks a government
of its own that will b sufficiently strong to protect the prisoner
and at the same time to crya tails a public opinion ao dear that
governments of all kinds will be compelled to practice a mora

tection of the Individual and of the community through quick
and certain Justice. That function In many places hss fallen
Into a sad state of disrepair. It must be a part of our program
to re-establish It." . ,
The above it an extract from the radio speech delivered
Wednesday night by President Roosevelt before the Federal
Council of Churob.es, meeting In Washingtop, D. C.
Less than 24 hours later, a mob in Texas, dragged a dying
negro from a local sheriff, burned the body after hideously
mutilating it, and served notice on the world that lynch law
still reigns below the Mason and Dixon line.
Does Governor Rolph approve of this action! Would he call
it a "good job!" Would he suggest that the jails and penitent
aries in Texas be combed for other negro suspects of murder,
and their fate be left to the "good oitizens" of this Texas town!
PROBABLY not At least Governor Rolph does not resent or
criticize the president's condemnation of lynch law, altho
he did resent and criticize a similar condemnation from former
President Hoover. He says he knows anything President Roose
velt says "comes from his heart after the deepest consideration"
and he refuses to be drawn into any controversy with him.
Why NOT! Governor Rolph said ONE thing. President
Roosevelt says ANOTHER. Had the president of the United
States mentioned the governor of California by name, he could
not have taken direct issue with him, more emphatically or ex
plicitly than he did.
When a former president, Herbert Hoover, took the identical
stand President Roosevelt takes, Governor Rolph came back at
him with some slurring remark about the bonus marchers, and
justified his stand, by maintaining it prevented bloodshed.
Why does the governor of California make no defense now!
The answer of course is obvious. Former President Hoover is
not generally popular and is inept in public controversy. Presi
dent Roosevelt is very popular, and can cross lances with the
best of them.
SUNNY JIM knows when he has had enough. It was easy to
place the stamp of official approval upon lynch law when
the cheers of the mob were with him, but when those cheers had
j died down, and the inevitable reaction has set in, followed by
the president of the United States unequivocally upholding law
and order, Governor Rolph decided characteristically, that beat
ing a haty retreBt would be the better part of valor.
Yet if what the president said Thursday night is RIGHT,
what the governor of California said the day after the San Jose
lynching is WRONG.
. Did some one say that in that statement Governor Rolph
I .1.....J of 1abd4 It ItaA t1a .nii.nna n'liia AAnviiifinnil
Where, oh where is the courage of his convictions now I
They Must SeeJ
WE refer to this Rolph incident again, not from any desire
to rub it in the governor of California has been suffici
ently discredited to satisfy even his most pitiless enemies, but
to try to make it clear even to those who in their hearts upheld
his action that such approval from men in publio life, never
can be, and never should be, justified.
For such approval furnishes a precedent, which can't fail to
be hideously destructive, in its ultimate consequences. Once let
our recognized rulers justify mob action in one instance, and
human nature is such they can't successfully condemn mob
action in another.
With the sanction of mob violence the bars are down. With
the admission that the people are justified in defying the courts
and overthrowing the law, in one state; that admission can't be
denied, in ANOTHER. There is then no restraint, no law, but
the law of the tooth and the claw, no logical or ultimate out
come, but the return to the jungle.
As Walter Lippman has so well said, "the struggle against
lawlessness is the struggle for civilization itself."
It is the herculean effort to bring under control the persis
tently primitive nature of men, their greed and Inst and animal
violence, so that their energies shall not destroy them.
e e
IT is this principle that not only all men in publio life, but all
right thinking men and women, should fight, day in and day
out to SUSTAIN. For if it is NOT sustained, then certainly
what we call civilization perishes.
The way out is not to condone lynch law or lawlessness, but
aa a people to get behind legal and court reform, and make it
what it should be an effective bar to crime, through prompt
and certain justice, instead of what it is today, virtually a farce
and an encouragement.
When THAT is done, then except where racial hates rule,
hates too elemental and strong for any law to completely ourb,
lynch law will die out, and there will be no more thought of its
revival, than the revival of the Btake and the thumb screw.

SPEAKING ot thlnga that are
wrong. W. W. Aldrlch. president
of the Chase National Bank, of New
York, one of the world'a biggest pri
vate banks, says the new securities
act and uncertainty over the future
value of the dollar are what Is chiefly
wrong with business.
Another thing that la radically
wrong, we are pretty aure out In this
country, la that the public has lost

THE new securities act, Wall Street
claims, makea It .harder tor big
concerns to borrow money by means
of stock and bond sales.
Uncertainty over the future value
of the dollar makes people who hsve
money to lend hesitant about loaning
It, because they don't know what kind
of dollara they will be PAID BACK In.
INCIDENTALLY, we sre all cussing
the banks because they won't lend
enough money.

LABORATORY TESTS
CHECK EFFICACY OF
KEUOGG'S ALL-BRAN
Show Why This Delicious
Cereal Overcomes Common
Constipation - '
There are scientific reasons fot
the success of All-Bran in pre
venting and relieving common con
stipation. Laboratory investigations
show that it supplies "bulk" to ex
ercise the intestines; and vitamin
B to promote appetite, and help tone
the intestinal tract.
These two Important food-elements
aid regular habits, and help
do away with the headaches, loss
of appetite and energy, so often the
result of constipation.
The "bulk" in All-Bran is mild
in action much like that of let
tuce. Inside the body, it forms a
soft mass, which gently clears the
intestines of wastes.
Isnt this pleasant "cereal way"
far more healthful than using pills
snd drugs so often habit-forming I
Just eat two tablespoonfuls of
Kellogg's daily enough for most
types of constipation. If not re
lieved this way, see your doctor.
Besides, All-Bran brings your
body twice as much blood-building
iron as an equal amount by weight
of beef liver.
Special cooking processes make
All-Bran finer, softer, more palat
able. Equally tasty as a cereal, or
