"Thou Shalt Not Kill"
Father Victor Day of Helena is working on a new
- book, dealing for the most part with the Ten Command
'merits. .When he reached the Fifth, Commandment he
visited The Independent office and engaged in some re-
"search work to ascertain how extensively the Fifth Com-
mandment is violated, says the Helena, Montana, Inde
'"pendenL ' ' !

'"ished his work, aided by telegrams to the census bureau

he will make in-his forthcoming publication, will be i

only in the' killings in the United States the three big

. newspapers are filled almost daily with the stories of
' wicked killings of all kinds and descriptions. ..
: To the question of Father Day as to how many homi
cides there were in the United States in 1926 the census
bureau replied that these figures will not be available
for two months, but the number in 1925 was 8.S93. The
rate per 100,000 has increased almost 400' per cent in
twenty-five years and it would not be surprising if when
-'the figures are .available, the homicides in this,country
.in 1926 and 1927 will exceed 10,000 annually.
In' all the cities of the United States of 100,000 or over
'there were 481 killings in 1900 but by 1907 the number
in these cities had reached 1455. ' '
Look at the record, we have been making as a nation
of killers in the last five years: . . . ..... .

'; This is a sad commentary on our American life.
.' "We have broken all records, even our former record
from 1910 to 1920 when the number of homicides in the
'' United States averaged during the period 7.2 persons for
revery 100,000 population. Our cities may be taken as
"an index. 'We now hkve 11.1 persons murdered every
year out of every 100,000 population. . ." . r j

; land .9; in Spain .9; in England and Wales .8; in South
- Africa 1.8; in Switzerland. .2 ; and in Scotland .4.. ,
' 't, Here in redeemed -America, where we have countlass
i 'uplift organizations, the most schools and. colleges per
.' capita of any country in the world; the most laws of any
I : political division on the earth, and the blessed prohibition
; .,',act, we are killing off our population at the rate of 11.1
..'"persons in every 100,000 population, while over in rdm
j y soaked Quebec ..they only kill half a person to every one
J hundred, thousand, persons, and in Scotland, flowing as
it is with peat-smoked fighting whiskey, they kill four
j ' tenths of one person for every one hundred thousand pep
i - i pie. In Chicago, all. dried up by the Volstead act, we
i. 'killed 18.8 persons last year out of every 100,000 popu
lation while in Glasgow, Scotland, rated as one of the
' wickedest cities in the world, the best they could do was
f';to kill "eight tenths of a person for each 100,000.
: This record of ours is something to think about.
I ' ' Prohibition laws did not reduce the number of homi
; ' cides, but instead of giving us a higher regard for human
t jtile, we have seen the number of killings in our cities in
j .crease from 1930 to 1920 to 3208 in 1925. Probably the
1 1 'comment of the warden of Sing Sing prison also helps
' explain the constantly increasing number of killings.
From 1889 to 1923 there were 458 murderers sentenced
' to death, in New York state but only 298 paid the ex-
treme penalty. .
; There is something the matter we have so much to
1 , do regulating the small personal habits of our people that
i America stands out today as the country which has for
' -ygotten the Fifth Commandment, '.'Thou Shalt Not Kill."
