Crime is a disease and It just
as contagious as smallpox. 1t is ner-
vous affection. Persons of excitable
Temperament on seeing or hearing Of
horrible crimes, are seized with mad
desire to commit similar ones. 1t is
an acknowledged scientific fact that
this disease is contagious. Investiea-
tion has proved 1t beyond the shadow
of doubt. We see person yawn and
we instinctively initiate him. In the
same way persons of certain temper
|aments instinctively initiate crimes of
others.
With the enormuos immigration of
hotheaded people of several European
countries crime has been on the in
crease. But the infection is not con-
fined merely to foreigners
The yellow newspapers are in a
measure responsible for the prevalence
of crime. In sensational manner they
flaunt the stories of criminal acts be-
fore the public, thus encouraging and
exciting people to similar deeds.
1T is dangerous to give publicity to-
.crimes. Why not make virtue SEN
sation? 1t is so rare nowadays that it
has twice the interest of crimes to the
healthy minded people.
| am not prepared to say that immi-
grafton to this country should stop
but | do say that immigrants should
be closely watched and encouraged in
good morals and properly educated.
