In Its Declaration Of Uneom-

Reader, have you ever been made
frantic and exasperated beyond meas
ure by some man whistllng In your
neighborhood7 Did you ever sit In a
tram car and hear one Of these
nulsances blow noises out through
puckered lips? II you have, you can
well sympathlze with the unidentified
person who listened to Moses Cohen
whistle In a local picture thea
ter and arose and slew him on the
spot. We regret the killing: It was
uncalled for; unlawful; dreadful; not
to be tolerated. Law sleuths are on
the truck Of the killer and, OF course,
as upholders Of law, with almost puri-
tanical vehemence we hope he will be
caught. And yet persons
should not whistle In cinema theaters,
or In tram cars. or In the streets, or
In shops. or in newspaper offices, or
any other place on the face Of the
green earth where they can be heard.
We have spoken.-New York Evening
