Washington August 4-warren Gameliel Harding is the nations greatest golf attraction
 Chick Evans, Jock" Hutchinson and Bobby Jones notwithstanding, Warren G. Harding has bigger gal lery each time that he plays golf than other golfer in the United States.
 If the President saw fit to charge two bits" per for each person in his gallery every time he yields a "brasse" he would net a neat little sum that might run close second to the salary check that the Treasury Department sends him twice a month.
 All Washington likes to watch the President golf, and to date most of Washington has seen him at the game. No one has heard him, which speaks we'll for his temper.
 The President plays most frequent ly on the nine-hole course in East Potomac Park, which is maintained by the government for the public of Washing gton. Whenever he appears at the first tee he is immediately sur rounded by a half-hundred golfers and all of the way down the course has an increasing gallery" Most of the golfers let the President "go through" while they stand on the edge of the fairway and watch him and it doesn't seem to feaze him bit
 Warren G. Harding's collective golf cards may not look well enough to be framed, but he is a rare golfer, for he never displays extreme joy or chagrin over his game. Like most of the gar den variety of golfers, ne spends a good bit of his time in the bunkerS and raises much dust, but, unlike most golfehs, he doesn't raise Cain with the dust. He just shoots away until he is out of the hazard and back on the fairway, and never word or even an ugly look.
 BorrowS Match from ByStander
 Some two score or more old-time golfers stood by in amazement a short time ago and watched the President drive into a sandpit 100 yards from the tee, on a par three hole. The President watched his ball sink in the sand, walked to it very deliberately, chose spoon and tried for an 'tout' No luck, but plenty of sand in the air and all over the Presidential golfer. One more try with the spoon, and the same net result. On the third shot the little old ball went shooting into the air and carried 20 yards over the green. The President switched his cigar from one corner of his mouth to the other and, without even mutter- ing, walked on.
 When the Chief Exec1tive was out of hearing, one of the old timers who was standing by exploded, Hell, he can't be human! Three dubs and not a single wordi"

RETURN OF WHIPPING POST, SEPARATION OF POLICE FROM
 POLITICS, URGED BY CHIEF
St. Louis Criminal Expert Advises Abandoning Kid Glove
 Methods-Would Save Young People First.

St. Louis, August 4-The return of the public whipping post as a crime preventive is advocated by Victor J. Miller, president of the St. Louis Po- lice Board.
 Handling criminals with kid gloves is not a successful method" declares Miller in his contention for the bring ing back of the drastic erstwhile pun ishment stile."
 We cannot accord criminals the same treatment as we would a gentle man." says Miller. "I know the whipping post is illegal. but it would be of great benefit in many instances if it could be used. Many criminals do not care particularly about jail or even prison terms, but if a big police man takes them into an alley and gives them a good beating it does much to keep them straight for a while.
 Our St. Louis ho1dover has the softiest blanks in the world and the man who gets in them always says he was put there for doing nothing, not thinking that if he did do something he could keep out"
 Criminals would rather loaf in jail than work, Miller asserts.
 Partisan politics works to the detri- ment of police departments in the larger cities of America, declares MT. Miller in a sweeping denunciation of partiSianShip.
 When voters back a man." he said they should back him because he is capable of serving efficient1y-not be- cause he wears the label of a party. I am a Republican, but I don't know why. But I forget party in doing my duty and there is no set of politicians telling us how to run our department.
 Politics Barred.
 'fSt Louis has the most efficient police department in America. It is far the reason that we don't have a gang of political pets serving on the force and giving protection to a bunch of lounge lizard law vioIators. We run the department as a business Graft seldom slips in and when we find graft we immedi- ately eliminate it. Soft drink bars are not selling booze here under police protection while politicians collect from them"
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1921-08-04

Reciting how crime has been re- duced in St. Louis, Miller declared that booze will continue to be sold in soft drink bars without knowledge of the police. It would take 10000 po- ficemen to enforce prohibition in this city alone, he said, addine that he does not suppose prohibition will be effectually enforced until the taste or desire of liquor dies out"
 Right now" Miller stated, i've are devoting our time to the stopping of crime. That is not going far enough. Thought should be given to crime pre- vention. When we get to the source of the crime the problem is solved. We are trying to make it so hot for everybody having any part in crime that there will be no ambition to en- gage in the business. When crinai- nals see they are not going to get away with their nefarious work they'll quit
 Gid Glove Methods Scored.
 'I believe in diScouraging younger criminals. .Kid-g1ove methods won't do that. Some social uplift clubs have a perverted idea about going easy, but the only way to reform a criminal is with shotgun or a public whipping post. Criminals would have a horror of the whipping post and drastic as such punishment may seem, it would be less costly in the long run, all angles considered.
 ''Immorality and crime work to- gether. Eliminate the one and you're rid of the other. People say it is inn possible to eradicate certain vices that they are necessary. That is not true. The social evil can be eliminated. If it cannot then civilization has been failure. Statistics show that 65 per cent of the lunatics of the country are so because of one great form of this evil I shall always protest against it, regardless of the politicians who protect vice or crime. I am to be three and half more years in office and I shall keep up my work. There is nothing that can deter me. When I quit this thankless job I'd rather go back to my father and mother and say I'd saved one hundred boys and girls than that I had made myself popular by pleasing the petty politi- ians."

NEW PLAN MAY STABILIZE PRICE
 OF FARM STUFF

|. Pierre, S. D., August A plan which it's opponents claim would sta bilize the prices of farm products has recently been presented to the Senate Agricultural Committee at Washing ton. It has likewise passed the lower house of South Dakota legislature and been endorsed by financial and farm ing associations.
 According to Will H. Lyon, of Sioux Fall, S. D., the plans author, it will not only stabilize the price of farm products but will go farther and sta biliZe business in general, to a great extent.
 In explaining the plan MT. Lyons says:
 '"The stabilization plan would have the National Government guarantee to farmers the average cost of pfoduc- ing staple, non-perishable, crops, plus a. reasonable profit, by agreeing to purchase whatever surplus remains on hand at the end of the crop year, delivered at certain central terminals and at a stipulated minimum price.
 This surplus in every staple crop, except wheat and cotton, is so small that the amount of money required would be insignificant in comparison with the value of the entire crop.
 ''If the surplus of any crop should prove excessive, the stabilizing com mission, fairly representing both pro- ducers and consumers, appointed by the HTeS1OenI, WOulu pToudp1y iCouSo the price for the following year and increase the price of other products in which a shortage might exist and thereby induce our farmers to 1n- crease production of flax, wool, and sugar which we now so largely i'm port at a cost of several hundred million dollars year.
 ''The government under the plan must necessarily control the imports of such products and through the staibNizing commission would pur- chase abroad, at the world price level, any deficit required and sell to our manufacturers at not less than the guaranteed price (except that in tended for export) thereby making a profit of the difference between the cost and selling price. Speculation Tn food products so abhorrent to the Automatically eliminated below the guaranteed price.
 "Now. when the farmer succeeds in producing a crop he does not know whether to sell for fear the price will 20 down. or hold for a better mark ct. Knowing in advance the guaran- teed minimum price of the various product the farmer can use his lana and ability to the best possible advan- tage and the rental and salable value of the land will be largely stabilized The guaranteed minimum price, of course. should not be made sufficiently high to induce speculation in farm lands or produce an excessive surplus
 Hinder the stabilizing plan the far mer would receive the same price re- eardless of road conditions. Under the present system the highest price usnaIIv nreyails when roads are bad ar elevators congeSted and delivery IS dificuIt or impossible. When these Conditions improve the price goes down."

green. The President drew 8 six on a par three hole
 Mice work. Joe," said the Presi- dent to Senator Fredinghuysen, his opponent, who holed out in three.
 Turning toward the next tee, the President stopped in the midst of his gallery and asked a youth for a match.
 Hell. he is human, after all, eh, wot?" croaked the old timer.
 This was but a fair example of the Presidential control at golf. The Chief Executive doesn't always hit them where he would like them to go, but he has perfect control of his tenn per and tongue, and one bad hole doesn't ruin his game for he goes aft ter the next hole harder than ever.
 Believes In Comfort Before Style
 The President may not have the best golf form in the land, but it's a safe wager that he has as good golf less some of the characters in those old Sunday School books have taken up the ancient Scotch game.
 The Executive is not a star golfer, nor is he bad golfer. His scores run under and over the 100 mark for IS holes He plays golf for the sheer joy of it. and to win. Whatever he plays he plays to win, but he plays takes no advantage over an opponent, nor does he gloat over an adversary's $ misfortune.
 It is often said that a mans true character is shown in his golf. If this be true, Warren G. Harding is a gentleman and a true sportsman, and then some
 Those who make golf an excuse for wearing dashing, ''tweedy'' looking sport clothes may be interested to know that the President doesn't spend much worry over his golfing clothes. He wears. light linen 'kn:ckers'' in summer, with a pair of the ugliest brown golf stockings ever seen on any course Like Ambassador Harvey, he sheds his coat whenever the weather warrants it and doesn't care what the golf fashion books may say about this His shirt is of soft white linen, with a soft collar attached, and his blue bow tie is generally some what awry. He alternates between a tweed golf cap and a white linen hat that hops in an uncanny fashion over his face.
 The President is no Adonis in golf habilanents, but he looks like real golfer, and you may take it from his constant gallery, he is.

Curing of Afflicted Folk in Hawaiian Settlement Be-
 ing Effected Rapidly.

Honolulu, Hawaii. Aug. 4.-Com- p1ete abandonment of the famous Kalaupapa Settlement, Island of Mo lokai, as a 1eprosariun may be eff fected within the next few years in view of the remarkable results that are being obtained from the use of a new chau1noogra oil specific, created by pr. Arthur L. Dean, president of the University of Hawaii in the treat ment of leprosy.
 No more patients are being sent to the Kalaupapa Settlement, because of the success of the specific, all new cases being treated at the KaHhi Hos pita1, Honolulu, from which patents are often released as cured Tn less than a year. It has been esumated that within two years from 65 to ID per cent. of the patients at Kalaupapa will have been released as cured. As a number of patients will undouoteo- ly not desire to leave Molokal, they may be allowed to take up home steads there.
 If present plans materialize, the 450 or 500 newspapermen from forty countries who are coming to Honolu- lu in October to attend the sessions of the Press Congress of the World will be taken on tour of inspection of the settlement and given an op- portunity to see what really mod ern and efficient institution 1t IS. So impressed were members Of the 19zl Hawaiian Legislature with the settle ment that they granted substantial additional appropriations for it and increased the allowance oand gave other concessions to the patients.
 Instead of being downhearted, as they once were. when hope for re lief seemed unthinkable, the Kalau- papa patients have taken new lease on life and have the utmost faith in the new specific, looking forward to the day when they will be cured ana
