The Journal doubts the sanity of a committee so low as to question the feasibility of an administration notion. Whereupon, the outraged Journal, metaphorically beats out the brains of Herbert Hoover, with the editorial typewriter, and charges the Republican candidate for governor with a plot to defeat the Democratic candidate for Governor, if he can.

Get a home-cocked lunch at De- Cashing in on Crime THE crime record in this country is a national disgrace. In murders, hold-ups, swindling and crimes of passion, the United States leads the world. There are many contributing factors to this deplorable con dition, an antiquated system of jurisprudence, which repeated ly resists genuine reform; an alliance between organized crime, on one hand; shyster lawyers, crooked politicians, dishonest judges and corrupt police on the other. But there is another contributing factor, which renders needed reform so difficult. This it a stubborn and inexcusable insistence on the part of the public, to romanticize to sentimen talize what might be termed the SUPER-criminals.-... 'T'lIE late John Dillinger, for example, was a bad egg all around. He was no Robin Hood. lie was selfish, cruel, and ruthless. A complete record of his crimes has never been pub lished, but federal officials estimate that he shot down at least a j dozen men, in cold blood. His attitude toward women, was the accepted attitude of the underworld a sex to be exploited and used; discarded when either started to decline. Federal operatives who know their onions when crime is concerned, classified Dillinger down like one, when cornered in his gun and fight it out. Tet Public Enemy No. 1 had cost of hundreds of thousands of a maudlin public sentimentality and tried to make a HERO of him. Men and women fought in the streets to secure blood stained souvenirs of his last stand. Crowds followed the body to the morgue. His funeral in a little Indiana town, was so elaborate, that his family so they claim could not meet the bill. And now, to MEET that bill, the Dillinger family, led by the venerable Pop Dillinger, his grey head held high above his flower-embroidered suspenders, have gone on the stage, open ing before a packed house, in an Indianapolis theatre! 'T'HE crowd, press dispatches declare, filled every seat, there was vigorous applause, when Pop told why he had gone on the stage. And Sis Dillinger and others told what a NICE hoy John had been. Loud laughter tance to state his age, etc., etc. In short a GRAND time was ger family are on the road to cash in magnificently, by capitaliz ing the dramatic death of a son and brother, who stole nil told close to a million dollars; had twelve notches on his gun, and if our information is correct was as crooked as a dog's hind leg, and as treacherous as a rattlesnnke. "What a SICKENING spectacle! And in no country in the world, but in the United vStates, would such a glorification of crime, such a sordid exploitation of morbid sentimentality be tolerated. JNTIL the people of this country, as a whole GROW UP, face organized crime realistically, for whnt it is, nothing less than AVAR upon an orderly government and ngainst society, i will tlviii be any APPRECIABLE progress in the fight, to make this country morally a better and safer place in which to live. For when all is said and done the eradication of crime de pends finally upon the force of an aroused public opinion. And public opinion CAN'T be very much aroused, in a country where arch-criminals are treated as heroes, and people crowd theatres on hot Sundny afternoons, to pay their respects and hard earned money to glorify the memory of Public Enemv No. 1!

Such ductless gland trouble doea run in families. But your expansive perimeter, big boy. Is quite ob viously a nutrl tlonal disorder. In ahort you're fac because you eat too much or laze too much, or both, and that's all there la to say about It. In a talk back forninst we com pared your plight with that of the drinker, if you can remember, and In formed the world that the drinker deliberately cultivates his craving for liquor, but you came by your crav- in for pure carbohydrate quite with out your will or knowledge. You had to accept the food offered you or none. ana tne food offered was pretty badly treated oeiore ii came to your table. Without explaining to you what tney are or how to get them, your Creator endowed you with a craving or demand for certain food elements or accessories that most refined foods lack, namely, the minerals and the vitamins. If we lived natural Uvea and ate natural food, obesity like yours, Fal- staff, would be a rare phenomenon. But we get most of our food without having to find It; It Is prepared In various ways to make eating easier: It Is flavored with all sorts of condi ments and sauces to encourage us to eat it, even when we have no stom ach for it and are not really hungry and It comes In forms calculated to slide down without any trouble at all, you don't even have to chew the stuff. The wonder Is that a few people escape obesity for years. For years physicians and health authorities have preached the im- nportace of vitamins and minerals In food. Not many laymen bsve lis tened, or If they have heard they have not heeded. People who suffer Impairment !n health from deficiencies In their sta ple food and we must now regard obesity as one such deficiency dis ease seldom bother to do anything about It until they are pretty far gone. Down south the poor white Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS. fJAVB you noticed that more peo- 1 pie are taking vacations this year getting away for a week or two and taking a little trip? It la a good sign. It shows that people are easier in their minds; not quite ao badly worried about the fu ture. That is another way of saying that confidence la returning. PEOPLE are spending money a lit tle more freely. A year and a half ago, if you had a dollar in your pocket, you were In clined to hang onto it with a death grip, feeling that It might be the last dollar you'd ever be able to get hold of. Now, if you're an average person. you have the feeling that If you spend the dollar that la In your pocket you'll probably be able to get another to take Its place. A NOTHER sign of returning confi- rlnncN Tf nnn1 bftVA no confi dence In the future, they simply WON'T BPEND MONEY except to keep from starving or freealng. And when people don't spend money business Is bad. npRAVEL, except necessary business A trips, is a luxury. In the past fe years, people haven't been Indulging very freely In luxurlea. You've noticed, probably, that as compared with the big years ahead of 1P30 not many cars from distant states have been on the highways. There are not many yet. People are Inclined to take little trips, rather than big ones. But a few cars from distant states are beginning to appear on the road. A rEW people are beginning to take longer trips. Another sign, you see. of returning confidence. FTFfl a while, we'll get ALL cut i confidence back. Then watch things gt ahead again In the good old American way. Don't let anybody tell you the good days are AM. PAST that we'll never see times aa good again as they used to be.

WHEN people used to travel, out here In the West, they thought flrat of aaddla horses. We don't do that any more.

Hon out In the desert this aprlng and la "gentling" him by the alow process of kindness and affection. When tha proceaa la completed, he expects to have a aaddle horse that will cause people to sit up and take notice. THE HORSE, thoae who have seen him aay, Is a beauty allm legx arched neck, delicate head; with strong traces, apparently, of Arabian blood. He was the leader of a band of mares out on the desert, and waa the object of many a chase. Harry caught him by baiting a corral with hay. He finally entered the corral, and the gate waa closed behind him. , Harry Is about IS yeara old. Many a boy or 19, and younger, will envy him his prlra. YOU'VE read atories In the maga zines of these beautiful wild horses, and If you're familiar with the furztalla of the hlfrh desert country you've sniffed scornfully.

COAST PORTS HUM WITH ACTIVITY ON (Contlnuea irutn paga one) atarted, opened at 6:80 a. m. A few policemen were atatloned around them. Tha longshoremen said they didn't want tha officera around and asked that they be withdrawn. Thla waa done and the workera moved In side. Observe Hiring The only difference between pre- strike operation of the blrlng halls and today'a operation waa that a union obaerver and a federal super visor had been atatloned In each. This will continue until the presi dents mediation board In San Fran cisco haa finally announced the re sult of arbitration between employer and workera. There were 30 veesela ready to be worked In the Portland harbor thla morning. About alx were expected to sail tonight, as aome were virtually loaded and ready to go. - Three men were arrested during the early morning hours when police undertook to give 37 so-called "a t r 1 k a breakera" aaf e conduct through picket ltnea. Union Men Aid Cops Union longshoremen aided police In dispersing a crowd that gathered at the acene of activity, ahoutlng that the union would Impose a fine of S100 on every registered long shoreman who acted disorderly. Street fights and other disturb ance kept police on the Jump until early today. Not a few outbreaks, detectives aald, were the result of too hearty a celebration of the end of the strike. SAN FRANCISCO, July 81. (AP) Smiling and with friendly nods to blue coated policemen, thousands of longshoremen and other maritime workera returned to their Joba here and In other Pacific coast porta to day. Intense activity marked tha ending of the atrlke, which began May 9 and cost at least eight Uvea and some t20O.00O.OOO to business. Long before 8 a. m., large gangs of longshoremen began walking to their Jobs to mlve piled up cargoea at varl- oua plera along San FraiKtaco'a five and a half mile waterfront or em b&rcadero. Cops Still on Duty Many policemen still were on duty In the district, which was marked by bloody claehea during the strike. Sr. those tense times the approach of strikers and policemen waa the signal ior a wild melee, gunfire and the bursting of tear gaa bombs. But today all bitter feeling of the past waa forgotten. The police, In groups of twos and threea at the piers, nodded to the workers, who waved their handa aa they passed by. llouda of steam shot from the piers as merchandise waa hoisted from the holds of dozens of ahlps and landed on the docka, where the long shoremen dispatched It throuuh the cnanneia oi commerce. Cars Are Loaded Scores of box cars, shunted alonrr nio waienront oy chugging enslnes. were backed to the plera to be filled witn goods. Even after the last union Involved had announced Its men would return to work today pending arbitration of their demanda, fighting broke out at Belllngham aa 39 non-union long shoremen left a lumber mill where tney had finished losdlni a boat me non-union workera were at tacked by an equal number of strik ers ana tneir sympathizers and aev- " as were Bruised before city and state police and deputy eherlffs moved in and restored order. Seamen for Peace Members of the International Sea- men'a union, Including seamen, atew arda and cooks, voted 4308 to 609 In a coastwise ballot to submit th.i- differences to arbitration. It waa an- nouncea last night. The union exec utive committee Instructed them to report ior work at 8 a. m. today, the aame hour 13,000 longshoremen re turn to tneir Jobs. witn the vote of the seamen In. every waterfront group which had gone out on atrlke had decided to .-nun to worx. The longshoremen announced their decision Sunday night and the masters, matea and pilots, and the marine engineers' beneficial association followed auit yesterday. To Plre Kon-l'nlon Men Employe, besides wreeina to arbi tration, have given assurance that all non-union men employed after the strike who were not following their tradca before the strike would be Im mediately discharged and that there would be no discrimination against any man because of atrlke actlvltlea or union affiliations. Longshoremen struck for shorter hours, ncreased wagea and elimina tion of employer controlled hiring halls. Within a week other marine workera' groups struck for similar de mands. The hiring hall question kent em- ployers and employee from reaching n aroiirauon agreement long after each side had expressed belief the other mattera could be settled amic ably. Employes contended employer controlled halls led to unjust dis criminations, and they demanded control of their own halls. Employers declared union control of the halls would amount to a closed shop.
