AT THE ROOTS OF CRIME

Kansas City Star-A 9-year-old boy
shoots down another boy Of the same
age because Of a taunt. In the com.
pany Of the youthful slayer is an
other boy. 10 years old. The two are
taken to a police station, and finally
the explanation Of 1t all emerges. The
9-year-old boy has no home. His
mother, in tears, confesses the fact.
and expresses her willingness that all
her children be taken in charge by
someone else. The father of the 10
year-old boy says he works hard and
provides for his family, but evidently
has no time to be a companion to his
son.
1t is merely an episode in a familiar
story; another bit Of proof that youth
full delinquency and crime are to be
traced to home conditions in the great
majority of cases. The exact percent
age is not important. Testimony of
welfare workers, juvenile court Off
cials and students Of crime and other
social questions have placed it any
where from IS to more than 80 per
cent. The case is sufficiently estab-
lished and il now remains to deter
mine what shall be done about it.
From the interest being shown al
ready, something will be done. Many
Of the churches, the Sunday schools,
civic organizations and other agencies
either have begun or plan action.
Much is being done in the way Of ap-
pealing to parents. This will help,
but it is not enough. In view Of the
activity already indicated it ought to
be possible for some agency, a church.
a club, a school, to assume a form of
responsibility for a definite section
of a city. With the primary move Of
ascertaining just what are the condi-
tons in that section, a certain dis
trict Of SO many blocks, say, that are
unfair to the boy or girl might be
allotted. With the further step Of de-
termining just what children may be
most susceptible to the unwholesome
influences, it would be feasible to
prevent much delinquency. The
trouble often is that nobody in a po-
sition to act appears to know any
thing about the existence or way of
living Of certain boys or girls until
some crime or act Of delinquency re-
veals both their whereabouts and
condition of living.

CHAIN LETTERS AGAIN

We thought hat the chain letter
pest had died out since the wal but
a new epidemic has broken out and
the mails are full of them again. We
can imagine no light occupation of
equal futility, nor any similar practise
which is more pernicious and produs-
tive TO harm TO simple minded folk
who take them seriously, than the
writing OF chain letters. The postal
department should use stringent
measures to stop the habit for ii is
clearly in violation of the law, since
each letter contains a threat or dire
consequences TO those who fail TO
Keep up the chain.
II is astonishing the number OF
prominent men Of affairs who fall for
these chain letters and do their part
in keeping them going. We received
one this week from a federal official
of this state, which contained the
names OF many men or more or less
prominence over the country. Even
the noted actor, Hoot Gibson, was
among those who had written the
prescribed nine letters.
At the bottom Of the letter appeared
this instruction: Copy this and send
it to nine people to whom you wish
good luck. The chain was started by
an American officer and should e
three times around the world. DE-
not break the chain, for whoever
does, will have bad luck, but do IL

and you will have some good fortune
Can you imagine busy business mer

one showed his good sense bl breaking

PERSISTS

Sioux City Journal-The clash in
the senate between northern and
southern members over charges that
efforts had been made to e%xaggerate
iawlessness in a given state or sec
ton emphasizes in an unpleasant way
the differences that still exist after
nearly 60 years. S~ectionalism is the
outstanding feature of such an en-
counter as was precipitated with Sen
ator Calder of New York, on the one
side and Senators Harris OF Georgia,
Shields of Tennessee, and Dial of
North Carolina, on the other. 1t is a
very natural thing for the southern
senators TO resent Senator Calder's at
titude toward the south when he made
the effort to have inserted in the Con
gressional Record a newspaper story
of the lynching of TIVE negroes in
Georgia.
The southern senators were quick to
take advantage of the opportunity to
remind the northerners in the senate
OF the lawlessness in other sections
nan LII odl "a SIloNS wac AOAu
OF the massacre of miners at Herrin,
H., a tragedy hat probably never
has been equaled by the action Of a
southern mob in all the years that the
so called lynch law has been operat-
ing. Again. Senator Calder was re-
minded of the lawlessness in his own
city of New York where gunner band
together and create a reign OF terror
among the helpless victims. There
have been lynchings in the east in
the north, in the west and in the south.
Eight negroes were lynched at one
time in an Ohio city, being hanged
from trees and riddled with bullets,
and the west may have hanged for
horse stealing since the first crossing
OF the plains white men outnumbering
the negroes that fell victims of south
ern mobs.
II is apparent enough that no large
section of the United States has the
to emphasize lawlessness in an
other while minimizing its own short
comings. Senator Calder was charged
by the s~outherners with having done
that, hence their feeling of affront.
The thing for all Americans to do, as
The Journal sees it, is to forget sec
tionalism and to oppose lawlessness
no matter where it may be. South
er senators ought to be as bitterly OPP
posed to the lynching OF negroes as
are the northerners: those from the
north certainly should insist that mob
activities in the states above the old
Mason and Dixon line ought to be
punished. Together, the American
people face the duty of standing for
justice in every section and that
means standing against lawlessness.
1t is true that the south. has been crit.
icized numerically by northerners
because of its mobs and as the south,
ern senators now point out, the north
has its mobs as we'll with the diff
ference being that the northern mob
goes at it's work in a wholesale man
ner. The encounter in the senate re-
calls that old saying about it being
most unbecoming for the pot to call
the kettle black.

THE NEED FOR A BETTER WAY

Minneapolis Tribune-Trouble in
railroad and coal mining circles is
fast coming to a head. There is no
visible sign Of a settlement of either
controversy. Mine union leaders
rejected the overtures of President
Harding, and neither railway execu-
tives nor representatives OF the strik.
ing shopmen show a disposition to
concede enough ground to arrive at
a point Of agreement giving any hope
Of peace.
1t Is conceded that coal must be
mined and shipped in great quantities
from this time on il the people Of
the northwest and elsewhere in the
country are to be spared suffering
and hardship. Outbreaks that inter-
fere with transportation and the
movement of the mails are still being
reported.
Something must be done. II rea-
son and counsel among the parties i'm
mediately engaged In the two contro-
versies do not avail to provide coal
and maintain operation Of the carry
ing system, there apparently is no
other way than for the government to
step in and use its great powers to
protect public interests. Naturally,
there is hesitation in government cir
cles to undertake that function. Only
an urgent emergency can induce the
president to an exercise Of unusual
authority, and that is as it should be.
President Harding is said to be con-
WINGED. however, that both morally
and legally he will be justified in TAX
ing drastic measures ever to the point
Of impressing experienced men into
the coal digging and railroad service,
IL other means of restoring or main
tanning these activities fail. Govern

cies are not clearly defined by law
but sometimes the moral compulsior

ton of unwritten laws. In order t.
serve the public and shield it from
harm the president Is represented al
