A bonus is something given in adj
dition to what is ordinarily receiv-
ed by, or strictly due, the recipient.
Nevertheless, there can be no doubt
of the fact that thousands upon top
of thousands of ex-service men de-
serve additional compensation for
time spent in our army during the
late war. And there are other thous-
ands and thousands who received all
they were worth in the army and
more than they were worth had they
been free and at home. We do not
have much of an idea as to how the
deserving, the real deserving, may
be classified and separated from
those who are not really entitled to
additional help. To tax and take
from the earnings of those who re-
manned at home, but did their duty,
and give to the undeserving, whose
numbers are legion, in short amounts
to legalized highway robbery.

D|SORGAN|zED HOMES CAUSE CRIME, SAYS
 DR. VON K[E|NSM|D

Disorganized homes, made so usually by death or by divorce. produced 50 per cent of the criminals from a list Of thousands investigated recently in one of the country's penitentiaries ac- cording to a statement made here last night by Dr. R. B. von R1einSmid. president of the Arizona state univer- sity. pr. von KleinSmid took the stand that a state is plainly fostering crime when it grants a divorce and thereby assists in disorganizing a home. He says he has no argument. at this time, to make on the divorce question, but that the relation of disorganized homes to crime is one that is plainly a matter of statistics and that, as such. the question of divorce is a question 10 be dealt with in the consideration of eliminating criminals from society
 Dr. von kleinSmid spoke in the Y. M c. A auditorium under the pro- gram of the university extension lec- ture course, on the subject of De linquency." His address was the sec ond of a weekly series of four. and he will speak here again next Thursday on the subject of Deficiency" in re- lation to criminals. He is rated by Who's Who as a recognized author ity on criminal investigation and is credited with long experience in actual penitentiary investigation work that fits him above the plane of the theo- retical reformer.
 III HIS tdih ldSl HlBnt the uOctOr made no direct suggestions for reforms, but confined himself to facts for which he had the figures and records to sustain his statements. In the main he dis cussed concrete instances. although he diverged upon a line of statistics dur ing one part of his talk
 Besides bringing out the statistics on dfsorganized homes. in which he held a state accountable to some ex- tent for the criminals eminating from the homes disorganized by divorce he said that 75 per cent of one institu- tion's criminals were idle at the time of getting into trouble. that 59 per eent Of 24.000 criminals observed were'I liquor addicts, and that the tobacco | habit plainly had an evil effect on adolescents or minors.
 The doctor dwelt briefly on the prin- cipal beliefs for accounting for crim- insl acts. mentioning the old fashioned I dea that the transgressor should be punished rather than restrained or cured of criminal tendencies the newer f belief that an unsympathetic social ' order drives unfortunateS to crime and '

 Concerning the relation of tobacco to crime, he recounted many instances of reform school boys who deliberately got themselves into trouble for the sake of obtaining tobacco although their reform school records otherwise were good.
