Ii is only at comparatively rare in
tervals that the disappearance of a
man, woman or child is given wide
publicity. The case must possess dra-
matte features; the relatives of the
missing person must be extremely
wealthy and offer a large reward to
give the story any news value.
From the cases thus exploited the
average man might easily get a wrong
impression concerning the number eff
persons who are constantly being
sought in the metropolitan district
of New York and New Jersey and In
and about other large cities of the
country. 1t is a request the police
everywhere are more familiar with
thar any other when they are asked
to keep a lookout for this, hat or the
other person who left home at sue a
time dressed as follows, physical char
acteristics as follows, influenced by this
or that motive.

To the Editor of the Evening Star;
The arrest of Corbett. the negro, is a
disgrace and a standing blotch On the
record of Prosecutor Mott. Why the
blame for the caisson disaster should
be placed upon q nan of Corbett S de-
gree of intelligence is a mystery to any
fair-minded person. Why not blame
the person who employed a man such
as Corbett to do work for which a man
of GOODNESS and brains should have
been engaged? Then, too. nyone who
Knows how easily such an accident can
happen knows that any man of even
superior intelligence is liable, through
some mistake, to fail in his duty.
Let Prosecutor Mott. If he wishes to
retain the respect of the people, in
struct the grand jury to drop the,case
against this man and place the blame
where it really belongs. g. A. H.

Stop Using Patrol as Ambulance !
To the Editor OF the Evening Star;
VIII you kindly print an opinion OF
one of your readers concerning the
new police auto patrol? The police COM
missioners have been permitting the
police patrol wagons to do all sorts Of
ambulance work., in addition to con-
veying prisoners. This practise should
be stopped at once.
Disease germs of every description
and 1t Is generally known that the new
auto ambulance will be used in the
same N
Not only prisoners suffer from this
evident negligence on the part of the
police commissioners and the Board of
Health, but the policemen are thus ex-
posed to an added and unnecessary
danger.
During the past few years we have
learned the importance of sanitary
methods if we would try for universal
health. In view of that, the present
system of carrying a person suffering
from some contagious disease In a
wagon which four perfectly healthy
policemen use a short time later to get
to the scene of a fire or something is
gross carelessness.
Use the auto patrol for police bust
ness. The City Hospital should be
provided with more ambulances If 1t
cannot cope with the situation now.
1t is very evident from the number OF
sick calls the police have to answer
hat Newarks sick poor are not
properly cared for.

Death Menace In Swinging Sign

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
The recent killing of four people In
Philadelphia by a heavy sign falling
from a building calls attention to a
menace that exists on every business
street in Newark.
In even a slight wind dozens of signs
can be located that are swaying dan
gerously and liable to fall any min
ute.
Property-owners as a rule pay too
little attention to signs after they are
placed on the buildings.

A dispatch relates rather nonchalant-
ly that two cowboys engaged in a gun
tight in Texas and both were killed.
1t Is in such a tragedy as that, where
no survivor is to be punished or con-
doned, that the fercest partisans may
become thoroughly judicial and CON
slider the case on it's merits, passing
judgment or not In their minds as
1t seems to warrant.
1t would be surprising and dlscon-
certing to discover suddenly just how
much bias there Is in all of us.
Could one of those machines of the
sort which are alleged to register emo
tons be devised which might show us
in how small a percentage of cases we
pass upon are we really fair and Judi
cial. it is likely that some of us would
be n%onplussed to say the least
Some folks there are who AXE a
violent pride in their craftsmanship of
all kinds, n to them the revelations
of the little machine should be extreme
ly satisfying.

And it impossible to keep out of that
big fight which is imminent just across
the border.
For three days the report that a
large body Of revolutionists was bear

Juarez has been repeated without IN
tradictions, so it may be assumed that
there is something in it.
Texans have the reputation of lilk-
ing a good scrap, and here is one

safely asserted that, despite the fact
that Juarez is SO near a neighbor hat

A Russian physician has confessed it
was his custom to inoculate wealthy
patients, worth some ones while to get
out of the way, with cholera baeilli.
He had been doing it for a number of
years and didn't really know hoW many
deaths he had been responsible for.
This is carrying Machiavellian sub
tlety to the nth power If men capable
Of crime on a wholesale scale like this
were plentiful, great knowledge of a
scientific kind would be far more dan
gerous than a little learning.
Fortunately for mankind, those men
who are endowed with the ability to
acquire knowledge easily are usually
equipped with a sense of responsibility
and employ 1t wisely.
Indeed, the adjective great" car sell
dom be applied truthfully to a criminal
when IT Is considered how crude and
laundering are the methods of the best
known of them in comparison with
those of such exceptional men as the
Russian physician.
