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!

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 we get the bulk of our trou
bles cut of our system and people
get bsck to thinking sanely again,
we'll see BF.TTER times than we ever
saw before.

WHEN people used to travel, out

Still, here la an Interesting saddle
horse tale that la right up to date:
Harry Obenchaln, out In Eastern
Klamath county, captured a wild ataJ.
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.
But, apparently, there are beauti

of romance Isn't entirely past.

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

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.
