Stretching a Point on the
Side of Law Enforcement

! Can any good thing come out OF Chi
cage? Read Tuesdays papers and see
The 81 Will city has always been the
81 Won't" town when il comes to re-
specting liquor laws and such.
It was the place the bibulous one must
have had in mind when he said you
couldn't get into a saloon there on Sun
day-on account of the crowd"
But an amazing thing has come to
pass in liberal-all too liberal-Chicago.
Mayor Thompson refuses to take
refuge behind the city ordinance per-
hitting open groggeries on Sunday, and
he's ordered the strict enforcement of
the state law compelling all liquor places
10 close.
Place this exhibition of mayoral firm
ness alongside the familiar trucklery to
the lawlesS and vicious which obtains in
other cities-right here in Detroit, for
eXample-and YOU get the full force of
the delightful novelty of it.
Liberal and subServient mayors (whom
time proves to be rank failures as
politicians, as welD like Oscar B. Marx,
will ignore or stretch the law to reward
the rummies for their support.
Fancy a mayor invoking a state law.
in utter disregard of convenient local
regulation, in order to give the orderly
and the law-abiding a decent Sunday in
Chicago,
1t sounds so incredible, it is not to be
at that Mayor Thompson is
marked at once as material of presi-
iential size.
And if he means what he says it may
start him on the way to the White
House.
A stirring sort of fellow who treated
avs as if they were made to be en-
orced and who sometimes went around
ii night to see that they were enforced,
When he was police commissioner in
lew York, was called to the head of the
lation few years later.
We are not sure but that the mayor
If wide-open city, who fouts local
aw in order to invoke state statute on
he side of public peace and security, is
going the vigilant police commissioner
