CHILDREN KIDNAPPED BY THE
THOUSAND, BUT NO ONE CARES

Los ANGELES, April 2.-[Editor
Herald: To hear the generous SYM
pathy, the prayers and tears that were
said over poor little Willie Whitla one
would have the happy feeling that our
age and generation had grown kindly
and sympathetic. The kidnapping of
the boy was a frightful crime, and
personally / feel with Carlyle when he
said of little Louis XVII: II would
weep over his wrongs only that there
are several hundred thousand who are
worse wronged."
Are there other kidnapings? Mr.. Ed
win w. Sims. United States district at
torney of Chicago. after an investiga-
tion made by his office reported:
There are thousands of girls who are
every year snatched from lives of de-
cency and comparative peace, and
dragged under the slime of an exist
ence in the white slave world" His
statements are corroborated by all
other investigators along this line, in
Guiding James Bronson Reynolds of
New York, who was appointed special
investigator by President Roosevelt.
The investigators state that in writing
those awful facts for publication their
only object Is to arouse people to the
real state of affairs and to enlist them
in action that will prevent such in
famies. 4a ~
But, so far at least. the public is not
much concerned. There are no big
headlines in the press, no pictures that
might lead to Identification; there arc
no ringing sermons from the powerful
pulpits and no special prayers. Guar
dams of the public veal and public
morals are alike In dull apathy. Here
is an urgent call for the most Christ
like of Christian work, and what ex-
cuse win the great churches of the land
make if they ignore this duty and
leave the work to poor missions and
professed infidels? So far these two
classes are showing the most marked
interest. A, H. d.

SAN PEDRO HARBOR

NTIL May II, when the consolida-
ton law will become effective.
~ the members of the consolidation
commission will make careful study
of the entire subject. and will make
particular inquiry into its harbor as
poets and the best plans for harbor
development. A. P. Fleming, secre-
tary of the commission, is thoroughly
we'll versed in harbor matters, yet ne
says he is constantly acquiring new in
formation on the subject.
In an interview he made the follow
ing statement: "Some of the possibili-
ties of San Pedro harbor have been
impressed upon me only in the last
sixty days. 1t is no exaggeration 10
say San Pedro harbor can be made the
BEST HARBOR IN THE WORLD.
This is true because of the ease with
which vessels can come and go. Most
harbors require considerable time and
the services of a pilot in getting vessels
in and out, but the biggest liners VIII
be able to come right into San PEDRO
and dock and also get out with scarcely
any waste of time. This will be big
attraction when vessels come and go
to the orient through the Panama
canal"
The Herald renews it's advice to its
readers to visit San Pedro and make
themselves familiar with the maritime
aspect of the Greater Los Angeles ques-
ton. AS John A. Fox has said. we
have no river in Los Angeles, yet have
what may become one Of the greatest
harbors in the country.

MANS RESTORATION

N ROM France comes a religious
view of the conquest of the air
n which is novel and startling. but
will doubtless be acceptable to ortho-
dox people who accept the traditions of
the elders as to the origin of man, and
reject 1.-THE fairy tales of science" The
archbishop of Paris says the church
encourages the modern attempts OF
man to emancipate himself from his
earthbound state. In the expressed
opinion of the archbishop airships
prove man is regaining the proud po-
sition from which he fell soon after
God had made him only a little lower
than the angels. According to this
dignitary of the old Catholic church,
man before the period of his degener-
acy, known as the fall" enjoyed SOW
ereignty of the air, and it is hoped he
may now regain it.
This poetico-t theological view of mod
ern human progress will appeal to
many thinkers who believe as firmly
as did Milton that man is suffering,
and has suffered through the ages. on
account of his disobedience of divine
laws which for centuries he lost, but
is slowly and painfully rediscovering
with the prospect of his ultimate res
toration to harmony with heaven-the
condition which Ralph Waldo Urine
describes as being in tune with the
universe 1t is new thought from ar
old ecclesiastical source, and deserves
the careful consideration of all the
good people who refuse to believe this
is world of accident or that man
kinds amazing and Unprecedented
latter-day progress is the result of ev-
olution and of chance.

time when the Emperor William is be-
ginning to hint at the federation of

that the sons of the Latins should de-

In the United States, the people of
the British Isles took new lease OF
life. There is no doubt the vitality and
efficiency of the Celto-Saxons have
been added to UNNECESSARILY by the
territorial expansion of which they
have had the advantage. They have
had practically the whole world to
sprawl and spread over, while the Lat

Therefore, there can be no doubt the

DOLE ON ETHICS
OF BUSINESS
Continued From Page one.)

Continued From Page One.)
Mr.. Dole compared business to the
sports among boys, saying that the
cheater never gained very much in the
long run. He said that the Golden
Rule had always been found to work
success. In speaking of the goodwill
of a business, Mr.. Dole said that by
this was meant the reputation which
the business man had built up for him
self. 1t did not mean a reputation as
cheater. 1t was something worth
thousands of dollars to the business
man, for it showed in what considera-
ton he was held by his customers, his
employees, and his fellow workers in the
field of business. He said that the men
who are succeeding best in business
are those who are treating their en-
ployes as well as their customers by
the Golden Rule.
ga little thing like making an en-
ploye a present is a great factor in
modern business continued Mr.. Dole.
"Some may say that they are not in
business for philanthropy, but, just the
same, every one of you trade with the
men who are generous, and who have
regulations as such. Faithful service
should always be taken into considera-
ton. Business is like the game of
golf-it is the efficient, thorough,
| steady worker who wins out. All
cheating and taking advantage of an
other man in business is nothing more
nor less than stealing. The man who
resorts to cheating does so because he
hasn't the qualities that would bring
| him to the top. Trust is great thing
in business. I'm naturally suspicious,
but j have found it good rule that
the more trust / place in my fellow
man the more good l get from him.
Don t distrust people any more than
you possibly can.
cone of the most successful business
/ men in my own community once told
me that the entire secret of his sue
cess was that he had always fulfilled
every contract, no matter how small +,
he had entered into with his customers.
Even if he carried out his word at
a loss of money to himself 1t was done,
and this he attributes as the reason
for his success. The employer who
threats his men we'll has an added ad-
!. vantage In having their excellent and
heart felt service. There was a man
: knew who, though he had grown very
wealthy, never forgot that he had once
been workman himself, and he treated
his helpers with the utmost considera-
ton. 1t was this that aided great
deal in his climb up the ladder of Sue
eess.p
| After alludng briefly to several other
phases of business, Mr.. Dole closed his
address, He was greeted with hearty
applause both at the beginning and at
, 1 the end of his speech.
