STATES TO CONTROL
SAFE DEPOSIT FIRMS
Supreme Court Makes Decis-
ions in Several Cases of Ma
tion-Wide Import.

Safe deposit companies can be held
responsible by States for collection of
State inheritance taxes upon securities
in patrons boxes, the United States
Supreme Court decided today in a case
testing the legality of such a law in
Illinois. The court affirmed a decree
of the Illinois Supreme Court holding
the law valid.
The law was attacked by the National
Safe Deposit Company of Chicago, on
the ground that it was an impair lent
of the obligation of contract between
the companies and their box owners,
because at no time could the companies
know the character and value OF prop
erty in the boxes.

Civic Improvement
BY Prof. John F. Smith

II l. a wholesome thing TO see the
people Of the entire national least
! the greater part Of the nation
waking up to the necessity of i'm
/ proving the environment of the
child in order that the stock Of peo-
pie may be improved. The Ameri-

I Ia action. In the multivaried organi-
cations ! have mentioned can be
/ found much froth and experiment ;
/ but down underneath the surface
one may always find a rational idea.
A group Of men and women got to-
gcther few years ago to talk over
experiences. They had seen chill
dren playing in the streets in the
presence of filth and impurity, in
danger of passing carriages and
street cars. They saw the poverty
of play, the tragic efforts Of little
ones to invent out of dust and hot
sidewalks, pulverized filth and
kitchen rubbish, something that
would satisfy their childish long
ings for wholesome recreation, and
they decided TO start the city play
ground idea. Other groups got to-
gether who had seen the street gangs
operating on the corners, in the
side alleys, in and out among the
dump heaps, down along the rail-
roads and the river fronts. and de-
clded to begin the school garden and
public garden idea where these
troublesome gamins might spend
their energy to good purpose.
Heretofore they had used up their
surplus energy in breaking into
stores, chasing rats, harrassing other
children and older people, playing
dice, fighting their gamin enemies,
stirring up the devil generally in the
community. and the good people who
went to church and prayed for the
success of the missionaries on the
foreign field prayed also for the Lord
to deliver them from the rheuma-
tlsm, the heat of the summer, the
other ills that flesh is heir TO, and
especially from the gangs OF boys on
the streets. When the garden idea
was started, and the boy scout idea,
and the boys department OF the Y.
M. G. A., and other organizations
that recognize the boy as a human
being instead OF a wild animal, the
gangs began TO be less in evidence
and the mills that once ground out
thieves, murderers, pimps, daredevils
and criminals Of every description
actually began turning out young
American citizens. All this has cost
time and energy and money, but the
returns have justified the means en-
