POLICEMEN AND WAR GARDENS


Editor News-Times:
South Bends police department is
pretty largely joke.
No. that isn't original 1t is a
well known fact, not only among
citizens of South Bend, but among
mem bers Of police departments in
most of the cities within a radius
of a hundred miles, and further
Men wearing the police uniform
of the city of South Bend can't even
Kill dogs and cats, let alone catch
criminals. How many murderers
have been caught by South Bend
police in the past 10 years About
two. if the writer's information is
correct, and neither one of those ar
rests was really due TO the activities
Of the police.
AS for cats and dogs-the police
don't Kill half of those they shoot
at. They wound them, and then
let them lay suffering for a number
of hours, until they finally die.
Sometimes they don't even hit what
they shoot at.
Chief Kline, it's about time you
showed some judgment Granted
that the war gardens should be pro-
tected, but shoot animals when you
know they've done some damage.
Might as we'll arrest a man who
happens 10 be walking down the
street, tending his own business. He
might be able 10 rob a house. you
know-just as a dog is able 10 dig
up a war garden.
But If you want 10 protect the
war gardens. protect them. Not only
NOW--but NEXT FALL as well,
when boys and men-who can fight
back-are doing as much. II not
more damage than a few innocent
cats and dogs. You're going 10 be
watched when that time comes. Mr.
Kline. and yOu'u have 10 make good
YOUR blun-or answer to the owners
CT the hundreds of valued pets
you've killed.
But it's perfectly safe 10 bet that
when fall comes the police viii
have lost interest in war gardens
and VIII probably be conducting 2
swat-the-hy campaign.

RULES FOR RIVAL RIVETERS.

The riveting contest is growing serious. When Lon
don the record of American workmen, Amer
leans excel the English riveters and
to recapture the record. a group of Glasgow men
did the deed driving 4,452 rivets in nnehour day
with a powerful pneumatic hammer.
An American team of Negroes has now brought the
honors back this side of the with a ninehour
record of 4,S75.
Naturally enthusiasm is running high. and with the
desire beat he previous records, has recog-
milton Of the need FOR rules or classification the
kinds of rvetng done by contestants. So the size
the rivets driven. the kind of hammers used and
the constitution Of the are going to be taken
into consideration while the rat-tat-tattat of the
rivals goes merrily on This is war.
German manufacturers are threatening boycott
against who trade with allies They'd better
look little out That's game that both sides play.

Anyhow. there's standard commodity that hasn't

pace there are indications that the al
lies are ready to strike back some
where along the front. Just where
this blow will be launched will not be
known until it Is struck, but 1t may
be expected that its impact will be ter
rife.
1t is officially reported that 20 Ger
man divisions, or $4,000 men, have
taken part in the fighting, and that
troops have been moved from every
part of the western battle front to re-
enforce the armies which have been
forcing the British to fall back.
Observers at the front say that the
German losses have been frightful,
and that the enemy has lost from 10
to 20 per cent of his men, by the
most conservative estimates.
British Army Headquarters in
France, March 27.-There is reason to
believe important events win be re-
corded within the next few hours
which may lead to betterment of the
position Of the armies which are stem
ming the German onslaught. The enc
my is fighting desperately hard against
time. On the first day his reserves
were reduced to 50 divisions. At the
end of the second day some 40 di-
visions from the reserves had been put
in. A heavy German attack about Err
villers was completely smashed by the
British artillery fire.
