NEWSPAPERS RESPONSIBLE FOR
CRIME WAVE"
New Orleans, La, Jan. q, 1922.
DR.. c. V. Kraft,
Editor, The Herald.
a few days ago l read an editorial
in one of the city dailies entitled
Keep off the Roof which referred to
the Katz and Besthoff and Sam Bon
art safe blowing, and the many street
hold ups. The whole blame for these
robberies was laid on the ponies,
which of course is partly responsible
although the editor of that newspaper
overlOoks the fact that these very
same conditions exist in other cities
that have no race track.
The great trouble with most of us
and more particularly the newspaper
editors, is, we are always ready to
point our finger at the other fellows
mistake, failing to take into account
our own mistakes which quite often
prove more costly than the other fell
lows.
In the Keep Off the Roof article
the writer of that article is unable to
see the mistakes made by his newspa-
per, when it publishes details relating
to a crime committed. 1t is a matter
of fact that many daily newspapers
are guilty of graduating large classes
in safe blowing by publishing the de-
tails in such cases, than all the ponies
will
/ have noticed it is the policy of
The Herald not to publish the class
of news referred to. and for this rea-
son alone l welcome your paper in
my home.
