PREVENTION OF CRIME.

Interesting mainly for what It does not tell Is the
report OF the Law Enforcement association OF Kan
sas City which claims credit FOR reducing crimes IN
that city.
there 10 murders and 1888 burgIaries. For
the reriod this year, only nine murders and
695 burglaries were reported.
1t calls attention TO the fact that through it's eff
forts. two bandits were killed outright, one man
sentenced for life and others up for total OF
29S years.
It's policy was to offer rewards for the capture
of criminals and insisting on the police shooting 20
kill.
Those who may be led believe that this
ganzation has found a panacea for crime and solved
that problem may aside unimportant the
charge that the same association is preventing
the prosecution of prominent citizens named IN the
disclosure OF the wide spread degeneracy
scandal that any American city has yet faced
What the report raises is the question of how far
force severe sentences, harsh punishment will pre-
vent crime.
That system is primitive. It's history into the
centuries. Death. less than 200 years ago. the
English punishment for theft and yet thieves
The gallows was the sentence for 20 different
crimes days. until indeed. barbarity OF
hanging children for stealing pennies caused men
10 think.
States which forbid capital punishment have,
comparatively. more murders than those which
retain this extreme penalty.
To the enforcement association Of that any
other city is offered the suggestion that It's work
might be OF lasting benefit II it attempted 10
discover the OF crime.
Unemployment, poverty ignorance. disease. drug
habits. all have their bearing upon the question.
Boosting OF killing bandits a for crime
reaches the limits OF stupidity.

Who takes but what his purse can

Whose name has come through
every test
A shining symbol OF his best
May own but little here OF gold.
And seldom may his fame be told.
But he shall have until life ends
The good opinion OF his friends.
To be respected for your worth
Here Is the greatest JOY OF earth.
To live your life so none can say
That you have walked a shameful
way.
To come through sorrows time Of
tears,
And bitter days and dreary years,
Still brave OF soul and clean OF

FIT with the best OF men 70 stand,
Is victory-nor wealth nor grace
Can make such glory commonplace.
The man who walks IN honor's ways
And owns his neighbours love and

Has more, when hfe's long tale Is

Than those whose wealth IS all in

Before joining the Republic organ
ization, five years ago, Mr.. Tomlin
occupied various positions with the
First State Bank of Alma, Michigan,
where, during five years service, he
acquired valuable experience in gen.
eral auditing, finance, banking and
credits.
During Mr.. Tomlin's five year
connection with Republic, his duties
and possibilities have kept pace
with the general development and
enlargement of the institutions
merchandising and sales activities,
his work having embraced close con-
tact with the Cashiers, Accounting,
Service and Credit Departments
With the segregation Of those de-
partments in 1918, he was perma-
nently transferred to the Credit De-
partment, serving as Assistant Man
ager, until January of last year,
when he was appointed Credit Man
ager.
During his connection with Repub-
lie, Mr.. Tomlin has been an active
factor in broadening the scope of
the Company's General Accounting
and Credit operations, during its re
markable growth, and, by reason Of
his intimate knowledge of problems
affecting credits and finance of the
distributing sales organization, he is
considered a valuable member of the
Republic factory personnel.
AS the financial point of contact
between the Sales Corporation and
the Republic customers, Mr.. Tomlin
has established an enviable reputa-
ton among all, for square-dealing
and intelligent cooperation, which
typifies the high standards of the
Company in all of its business rela-
tons.
