LASH BEST CURE

Bring Back Whipping-post and

Urges.

BALTIMORE. June 27.-Comment.
with which criminals escape punish
ment. Acting Marshal George @.
Henry yesterday declared his belief
that a way to reduce crime would be
the re-establishment Of active use of
the whippins-post.
81 don't mean that first offenders
should be sentenced to imprisonment
and the lash" said Acting Marshal
Henry. but after many years of police
work l am convinced that the criminal
of today needs something more as
punishment than being sentenced to
an institution. where he 10 practically
on vacation
Innocent citizens have been as
saulted criminally; they have been
murdered while engaged In peaceful
pursuits; they have been robbed and
other crimes have been committed
against them. During the last few
years q tendency has grown up among
criminals to commit their illegal acts
and laugh at the law. Men with
records In the Bertillon Bureau visit
the courts during criminal trials. seat
themselves comfortably and educate
themselves nhow to beat the law.
Before the crook commits a crime he
fgures just What he should do In
event OF arrest
How would you have the whipping
post in operation?" Acting Marshal
Henry was asked.
Burglars. highwaymen. common
thieves, and persons convicted of cer-
tain felonies, in my opinion, should
receive the lash don't mean to say
that every thief should receive the
lash. There are major cases, cases
where gunmen. by their acts. terrorize
citizens, that should be made punish
able by something other than one
year in the penitentiary.' II the sem
tence were one year in the peniten-
tiary and ten lashes every thirty days
that fellow would be made to feel
what punishment really is.
THE whipping post is not an ex-
pertinent. 1t now Is in active use in
one of the States. and I am informed
that criminals give this State a wide
berth"

SPANISH MINERS OBJECT
TO PROFITS OF OWNERS

MADRID, June 27.-The coal min
ers In the district of Asturias are
threatening . strike for higher
wages. A strike would affect 81 900
men. The miners committee has
issued . manifesto saying that the
owners make a proft of 100000
pesetas on the 100000 tons of coal
mined.
They point out that the expense Of
mining the coal amounts to $4,000, 900
pesetas. while the sale price reaches
1855, 900 900 pesetas.
The miners are deman nding wage
increases which would raise the cost
of production by 24.0OO.000 pesetas
they say. This, they contend, would
leave the owners a proflt of 100000 900
pesetas, or % per cent on the capital
invested.

Tables Turned When
Landlords Cry For
Tenants

CHICAGO, June T-With
thousands Of vacant apartments
in Chicago, renting agents and
landlords are confronted with .
situation they have not had to
meet in years. They have to go
out and look for tenants and
offer them inducements instead
of having the tenants pay bon
uses for finding them homes.
Just how many vacant apart
merts there are in Chicago is
hard to estimate. The records
of the Cook County Real Estate
board have more than 5000 va
cant apartments listed. These
are the statements turned in by
the renting agents who are
members of the organization.
"There are more vacant apart
ments in Chicago today than
there have been for a number OF
years." one official Of the Cook
County Real Estate Board said.
"This is because many people
could not pay the high rents and
doubled up with other families,
and because building has taken
a BOOM"

LORD MAYOR SAILED
BACK TO ERIN AS
MEMBER0 Of CREW
O'CaIIaghan FoiIed British
SIsuths by Help Of Sailors
on Vessel.

NORFOLK. Va. Juno 27.-Now that
Donal O'Callaghan. Lord Mayor of
Cork. has landed safely in Ireland
after spending several months in
America. the story of his going will
prove interesting. He sailed as a
member OF ships crew. He
sailed in disguise but there was
not a man on the ship that carried
him 20 ireland who would have deliv-
cred him to the English had they
known he was the Lord Mayor. and
that British prisons were yearnins
for him.
Lord Mayor o'Callaghan gave to
this writer an interview which he
said he did not want printed until he
returned home. The following is a part
Of that interview:
When l return to Ireland ] shall
tell the people how good the people
OF America were to me. ] shall tell
them also that millions OF people in
his county want to see Ireland free
and are will to help make her free.
II may be caught and thrown into
prison. I will have to play a game of
hide and seek with the police of my
native city or any other city or
town or hamlet in which l seek
shelter, but I will gladly give my life
for this cause.
IL shall not surrender. They will
have to take me, and when they get
me they will nnd me still ready to
night.
"I find in America some people who
believe the Irish question, as they
call 1t. . religious issue. That is far
from the truth. There is no question
of religion at stake. II Ireland should
become free tomorrow. every man.
no matter what his religious belief
might be. would be guaranteed lib
erty to worship his God as he might
see At.
.sThcre IN no such thing an enp1ity
between Catholics and Protestants in
ireland. They are closer together
there than they are in some portions
OF the United States. They respect
each others rights and they live in
peace and harmony.
II know OF a number of instances
where Protestants have protected
Catholics from attacks by the dis
reputable black and tan police. !
know OF one incident where Cath
Ollie priest, while returning from a
sick call. was thrown from a motor
cycle and sustained a broken leg. He
was carried to the home of a Prot
estant in a thickly settled Presby-
terian parish. He spent three weeks
in this Protestant's home. He was
tenderly nursed back to health by
the good people in this home.
There are a number OF such incl
dents where Catholics cared for Prot
tstants and Protestants cared for
Catholics. Ireland today is absolute
~ at peace so far as its own people
ure concerned. II is the invaders
that are causing trouble and trying
TO stir up enmity among the people"

BACHELORS BANNED
AND BICAMY BOOSTED

LONDON, June 27.-An anti
bachelor bill introduced into the
Turkish Nationalist Parliament at
AnRora. seeks to make marriage COM
pulsory for men over twenty-five.
Defaulters will be fined a quarter
OF their earnings. which will be de-
posted In agricultural banks to help
peasants to marry. No adult in the
civil service will be allowed to be a
bachelor.
Gifts Of land. loans and State edu-
cation for children are held out as
rewards for marriage with a penalty
of hard labor for confirmed
bachelor.
For repopulation purposes well-to-
do Turks under ffty are encouraged
to keep two wives, contrary to the
modern practice, due to the cots OF
living, OF having several wives in
succession.

US. remains FIRM
AS PANAMA FAILS
!. TOACCEPT AWARD
Reasonable Time" Granted by
Hughes to Forsake Boundary
Fight Nearly Over.
By international News Service.

With only a brief period remaining
Of the Reasonable time" which Sec
retary of State Charles e. Hughes
allowed the Republic of Panama In
which to comply with the terms Of
the White award in the Panama
Costa Rican boundary dispute. there
has been no change of attitude on
the part of the United States. 1t was
learned today.
A courteous hearing has been ac-
corded Narciso Garay, Panaman min
lister of foreign affairs, who came
to Washington to present the case
Of Panama, but none of the arRu-
ments offered have been deemed Of
sufficient weight to cause Mr.. Hughes
to reverse his decision that the late
Chief Justice OF the United States
Supreme Court was entirely within
his Jurisdiction as arbiter In award
ing to Costa Rica certain territories
claimed by both the disputants.
Almost two months have already
passed since the last formal note to
The Washington times., 1921-06-27

Panama was dispatched. Panama
has naturally been considerably
wrought up over the prospect OF los
Ing the long night. The Harding Ad-
ministration felt a few weeks delay
would soften the blow.
Senior Garay based his appeal to
considerable extent upon the opinion
of Bustamante. the eminent Cuban
authority on International law. who
held that Justice White had exceeded
his authority.
Representatives Of the Panaman
government admit Panama has no
thought OF resisting any decision
which the United States insists upon.
and II is expected that within a week
or ten days formal announcement OF
accession to the White award will be
made.
