BURLESON DOCTRINE

From the New York Evening Post,
 When Postmaster General Hays TO- Versed the action of his predecessor by restoring second-cIass mailing Driv- ileges to certain radical publications there was general concensus of in telligent opinion favorable to this re- turn to sanity. No less general will be the disagreeab1e surprise with which the public has learned of the decision by the Court of Appeals or the District of Columbia uphoIding MT. Burleson's policy The specific case before the court was that of the New York Call, and it was held that the matter appearing in this journal violates Section 211 of the Amended Criminal Code. The article quoted, it was argued, tended ito incite arson, murder, or assassination" and, there fore, ''this polluted matter is denied the usual postal privileges. Appar- ently, however, the Call may continue to accomplish what William H.Lamar formerly Solicitor to the Post Office Department, calls *fthe destruction of society,"" provided it pays more for the privilege than second-class rates
 This absurdity is inevitable once any departure is made from the sound principle argued by Bfr. Hays If a publication is mailable at all, it should have the same rights as it's competit- ors- If not, it should be excluded en- trely and not merely penalized by paying higher rates for the circula- tion of ideas unacceptable to the ma Jorfty of the American people. If, as this decision indicates radical opin- ions are to be classified as obscene or sedidous in themselves. without any reference to the particular circum- stances of each case, then the logio Of the situation demands the pros-cu- tion of all persons protesting such opinions and the suppressions of their publications The withdrawal of mail- ing privileges is obviously an inade> quate precaution against dangers such as the Court of Appeals has conjured up in it's judgment against the Call Postmaster General Hays has forum ately shown himself a man of sanely liberal views in such matters, and we may assume he will be slow to exer- else the oppressive powers which this decision confers upon him But a regrettable precedent has been estab- hshed which others may feel com pelled to invoke.

HE MUST BE SORRY HE SPOKE
(From the New York Times)

(From the New York Times)
 If the Mayor of Somers Point had been wiser he would have refrained from calling the attention of all and sundry to the fact that bathers on his beach could dress as they pleased. What he said in the interview that has caused him much trouble and is going to cause more was sensible enough in itself, but it caused to be exciting what hitherto had not been exciting at all. and brought to bear on the bathers of Somers Point eyes that saw something between guilt and impropriety where the previous ob- servers had seen only innocence and beauty.
 For it was not a change in bathing suits that the Mayor announced, but the continued permissibility of gar ments long permitted there without the giving of any offense. If the Mayor had kept silent this idealistic state of affairs presumably would have continued. Now the suggestion
 
 the evil will be there The liberty that was unconscious will become conscious license, and the chances are that Somers Point will be obliged, like other beach resorts, to ban the "one-piece suit" in which the admir- able art of swimming can be most comfortably and safely practiced, and subject it's once happy and guileless bathers to the slavery and danger of superfluous clothing when in the wa ter.
 Curiously enough, nowhere are the professional swimmers. whether women or men, either expected or re- qUired to dress otherwise than best fits them for the display of their strength and skill. Thus clothed, they excite only admiration and emulation, and they are pictured full length in the newspaper supplements without aroUsing protests by anybody Why the amateurs are not equally free to dress as swimmers should dress is question hard to answer-as hard as it is to tell why the Mayor of Sozners Point could not let very well alone, but had to indulge in a most injudi- cious form of advertising.

What Others Soy
LYNCuuNG MADE UNPOPULAR

CFrom the St Louis Post-Dispatch)
 If Missouri wants to be spared the humiliation of another lynchins and another investigation fiasco. such as occurred recently at Bowling Green. it might do worse than pattern its preventive effort after an Illinois law which has taken lynching out Of the category of popular pastimes by making it's subject to certain hazards which the most enthusiastic lynchers are unwilling to incur.
 This law, enacted in 1905, provides that If any person shall be taken from the hands of a sheriff, or his deputy, having such person in GUS tody, and shall be lynched it shall be prima facie evidence of failure on the part of such sheriff to do his duty and upon the fact being made to ap- pear to the governor, he shall publish proclamation declaring the office of such sheriff vacant. and his office shall thereby and thereafter irnme- diately be vacated-''
 Although, against the presumption of neglect of duty, the sheriff may be reinstated if it appears that he has done all in his power to protect the life of his prisoner, the question of reinstatement is unlikely to arise, be- cause when a sheriff has done all in his power to protect a prisoner 1ynchings do not occur. The last man in the world that 1ynchers want to meet is a sheriff who will do all in his power to protect prisoner.
 When Illinois sheriffs were only called upon to defend their prisoners they were not enthusiastic about it and Iynching was easy and safe, but since they have had to defend their jobs as well as their prisoners, lynch ing has practically gone out of fash ion in that state. The valor of mobs has always been in ration to the com placency of sheriffs and with the sub sidence of complacency valor like wise has vanished

Shark Catch Makes New And
 Vast Industry

Victoria, June 9-With the supply of raw material unlimited, an indus try new to this country is flourishing at Parker Island, between Galiano and Mayne Islands on the Gulf or Georgia. It is the business of catch
 ing sharks, and a weeks catch at the beginning of May ran to so, with an
 average weight of over a ton each.
 Nelson Macdonald of this city, who operated the first shark-catching ma Sflinery on the island, declares there will never be a shortage as there are
 millions in the waters surrounding the island. Tn fact the further north you go the more sharks you will find and from here to Alaska are their feeding grounds MT. MacDon-
 old said Taking them from the bottom of the sea is automatic. Nor way has a hundred of such industries. The only real hook for catching them, which works on a swivel, comes from there and the so-calIed cod liver oil. which inTades the markets of the world, is really shark liver oil, manufactured in Norway" n Nothing Tbdze is aS5ed iI ne 6er 5n snaFt than that made from the bodies of the sharks. As a fertilizer it is su- perior to dog fish. The head of the shark is full of glue of a highly val prized Chinese food delicaCy. Or ie entaIs here paying as much as 8 pound for it.

CAMPER, SPARE THAT TREE!
CFrom the Boston Clobe)

When clerks in the automobile reg vice compare notes, they find the number of licenses and the number of forest fires are increasing about pro- porionately-a disclosure which re- fuses to settle down as an amusing coincidence.
 Men who know something about wooded country have been sounding this warning for a long time. They foresaw that the automobile party whisking through the country roads would have no conception of the in vestment in time, in knowledge, in painstaking care and in patience rep resented by trees. The man from the city or town who drops into a glade with a camping kit has none of the experience and training of the old woodsman, who, if not a Druid and a. tree worshipper. is always a crank about trees. And the novice in the woods, before the time of the auto mobile, had to be careful, to save his
 
 rapidly in an emergency.
 A match thrown carelessly, a ciga. rette Tipped into dry leaves, a camp fire left burning-any of these may furnish the spark that sets the flames sweeping over the forest floor The young growth is ruined, the older trees are left standing scar red with shriveled leaves, the soil is ash-eovered and impoverished, and natures hundred years of work is destroyed A moment of thought lessness means hundreds of acres of black devastation.
 Reports indicate that the season of forest fires is here. Not everyone knows how to grow trees, but every one can keep from setting them afire The best way to stop forest fires is not to set them
