Smith out to policeman. Next mo-

Smith is arrested. Back up the
stairs he goes, escorted by the po-
liceman, stared at by the crowd,
who wonder if has picked a pocket
or merely insulted woman or
kicked a helpless child. His only
crime is that he forgot to throw
away half smoked cigar before de-
scending the subway stairs. He is
logged to the station house, made
to lose hours of valuable time, per-
haps lose his job, and pay fine.
Is this justice, readers? Or is it on
