There is Il very commonly accepted
belief that one Of the principal causes
Of crime is the failure of justice in the
courts. There is Il good deal To be said
in favor OF the argument. Public con-
ception of justice is as set forth in III"
ten commandments and it is sound
The legal conception of justice IS the
settlement of differences by rules OF
law. The just application of those
rules depend upon The personal equa-
sion, the integrity Of the witness and
the skill and cunning Of the lawyer
Often settlements are reached that are
perfectly legal: but absolutely without
Il semblancc OF justice. The public Is
aware that justice is outraged Dut has
no patience with such an outcome no
matter how arrived 1T. Men who would
make sacrifices for justice lose faltll III
legal procedure, and are content u
suffer injustice rather than submit 10
settlement for which they have no re-
Spcct.

Thumas w Lamont, Of the Chinese

transported to the hungry people who
are i'm need of il. There is condition
in the offer of the farmers that the ac-
tual corn must be transported and not
the proceeds of the sale of same. 1t is
4 vast undertaking; but those IN
charge of the various relief enterprises
have accepted, and they will do what
they cam 1t has been argued that be-
cause the corn is in danger of spelling

the heavy transportation charges, II
would be cheaper to buy the corn near-

less every effort will be made to make
good the whole plan in good faith.
