Disarming the Gun Toting Crook"
One of the most serious problems
confronting the people of the United
States is the enactment of adequate
laws to check crimes of violence that
annually disgrace the records of this
country. At first sight nothing looks
simpler. law rigidly restricting the
sale of weapons and the license to
carry these would seem all that is nee
essary, but, as proved by recent ex-
perience in the state of New York,
laws based on this principle result in
disarming the law-abiding citizen
without in the least affecting criminals
who have scores of under-handed
means of obtaining weapons and who
welcome with open arms any law that
will insure them defenseless victims.
Other states besides New York have
sought to devise laws to prevent gun
toting by criminal and irresponsible
people. but each attempt to deter the
respectable citizen from arming him.
| self has proved the fallacy of the
theory that the thug and the crook
can be legislated out of business by so
frail a ruse as making it difficult for
him to buy arms in the open market.
There should be no difficulty in de-
vising an effective "bullet-proof" re-

sected in the light of reason. Were
it possible by due process of the law
to arm every law-abiding citizen with
pistol and to compel him to learn
to shoot straight with 1t, and were is
possible at the same time to disarm
every thug and criminal, crimes of vio-
Hence would be unheard of. This stands
to reason( and standing to reason, no
law at variance with this principle can
be a good law. The revolver law need
ed is one which, on the one hand, win
encourage the arming of respectable
citizens and, on the other, will make
gun toting so hazardous for the Grim
linal that he will gladly disarm him
