THE BALKAN BLAZE

The Balkan war cloud has been a perennial topic for dis cussion by the newspaper pert paragraphers, but the present situation contains all the latent possibilities of a war that may change the map of Europe and very materially affect the well fare of the people of the world. It is difficult for Americans to understand the motives of the people of the Balkans, but 1t is plain that ambition and greed may be found among them. All the Eastern world hates the Turk, but the Turk has req sonably good security in the fact that any assault upon him will involve all the foreign pow CTS in a war. Each power would enjoy the dismember- ment of Turkey, but no power wants to take the initiative In that direction.

WALDO BLAMES THE COURTS
Speaks of Eighty one Burglars Freed
on Suspended Sentences.

Police commissioner Waldo outlined some
of the problems that the Police Depart
mont has 10 contend with and the way
tb.y were being worked out, ia an address
last night at the Union Methodist Episcopal
church. in West 18Th street near Broadway
lie said that he believed in liberal laws and
their strict enforcement rather than strict
laws that were not enforced. The latter
rule was apparently more in favor to-day,
he declared
lie emphasized his criticism OF Tia" crimi-
nal courts I'm imposing suspended sentences
ON prisoners who had been convicted Of
crime and had former police records. The
police made the arrests and obtained a
good share % convictions. only to see Of
tenders turned out by the courts who should
go 10 prison. he said
When the people get ready TO demand
that the courts hold persons responsible
for violations OF the law, that will be the
end Of the Violations" he said. Men who
have Dccn convicted three or four times
have sentence suspended on them. out OF
$50 convictions during the last year there
were IN suspended sentences Eighty
one OF the IN had actually been convicted
of burglary. That is a good many burglars
10 keep at large in the community. Five
others had been convicted OF assault and
robbery"
Tho almost physical impossibility Of get
tins evidence in gambling raids which the
courts would interpret as good evidence
made the gambling problem appear to be
something else than essentially a police
problem. lie said. lie deprecated the fact
that roulette wheels and other gambling
paraphernala seized in raids was appar-
emily not considered good evidence OF gam
bling, as the court usually ordered such
property returned TO the gambler.
