compensation under any conditions.
But if every former service man who
cares to be were prohtably employed,
it is almost certain that there would
be no demand for bonus legislation.
Employed men are happy men. They
do not seek gifts. Just as truly, busy
men care little for adjusted compensa-
ton, even if the compensation is a
debt in honor due.
In parts of Germany, every concern
must employ, not one service man,
but one World War cripple for each
20 men employed. This is law. We
prefer that the government fulfill its
just obligation to these men. But the
surest way to relieve the United States
treasury of the drain upon it for ad-
justed compensation is to make that
compensation absurdly unnecessary
Good jobs for every service man will
do il,

Time to Act.

WE are multiplying our laws to
control almost every activity OF
life. We provide by statute super
visory guardianship for the individual
from the cradle to the grave. Possib-
ly the multiplicity laws is what is
breeding contempt for all laws. If
we were to return to the customs of
fifty years ago with severe penalties
for the real crimes and left the indivi-
dual free to work out his own destiny
in the ordinary affairs we should like
ly be better off. Be that as it may it
is quite apparent that the mere enact
ment of laws does not make for bet
ter morals among the people. There
never was a time in the history of the
country when there was so much to
discourage those who love order, sob
riety and common decency as there is
today. The papers are full of accounts
of crimes committed all the way from
petty larcency to the most brutal
murder.
Right here in our presumably most
moral and upright Canyon county,
there just comes to light the most
revolving crime in the annals of the
county. A man fifty years old was
found conducting resort in Cald-
we'll where very young girls were
lured to their ruin. When the Off
GERS made raid on the place at II
o'clock at night they found this man
and his son 20 years old and another
young man % years old and three
girls aged IS, IA and IS. They also
found narcotic drugs. This vile den,
it appears, has been carried on for
months. Its operations have not been
confined to Caldwell. Young girls
from Boise and Nampa have been Wis
itors there and other young men. And
this horrible condition seems hopeless
of remedy in view of the apathy of
public sentiment. Even parents often
seem indifferent. Where were the pa
rents of these three girls of such ten
der years? One would suppose they
would have been frantically searching
for them when they were not at home
at that hour of the night. They were
apparently wholly unconcerned. In

Whom the Reaper Called

r. ]. SHORE is dead. This sturdy
Idaho pioneer answered the great
call Saturday evening.
With his death, Idaho journalism
lost one of its foremost opponents. OF
the old school, Mr.. Shorb was utterly
fearless. He believed explicitly in ex-
pressing his convictions through the
medium of his newspaper. And he
had emphatic opinions of most sub
jects of current interest.
Not always did he agree with the
public generally. But he had writ
ing faculty of making himself crystal
clear, gift of expression that was
not muddled by cross currents or in
conference. Right or wrong, no one
ever said of The News, Mr.. Shorb's
publication, that its creed was not a
we'll reasoned creed, its ideas we'll ex-
pounded. And sound common sense,
the gift of the great mass of Ameri-
cans, found frequent expression
through his columns.
More even than that, Mr.. Shorb had
the courage of his convictions. He
was intensely loyal to his home town,
to his home institutions, and had
faith in the future of Caldwell. He
believed those things and he was will
ing to back his belief with all his pos
sessions.

deed one of the mothers suggested
when the matter was brought to light
that the officers would be in better
business if they would leave people
alone to handle their children as they
saw fit. Hanging would be too good
for this man Gleason, if the facts are
as reported. Time was when he might
consider himself lucky if an outraged
public sentiment had not resulted in
stringing him up to the nearest tree
Vile and revolving as his crime was,
it scarcely causes ripple on the calm
sea of public feeling. Probably be-

cause so many similar things are hap
pening somewhere every day, that peo-
pie have become hardened to it and
because there are so many laws they
feel justified in disobeying, they have
become Indifferent to all laws. 1t is
more than time that society wake up
to the deplorable conditions in this
land and take measures to see that
such things cannot happen as this af-
fair in Caldwell and cease wasting
energy in trying to control people in
ordinary affairs of life.-Nampa Lead

NEW YORK, February 1s.-Mrs.

also see a cross. Don't worry"
Mrs. Caruso interpreted this to
mean the chapel where her husband
rests in Naples. 1t is being cared for
by members Of a religious order, and
the cross is the small cross Of her
rosary which sne had placed upon
her husbands body.
Il am not seeking any message
from the dead" she exclaimed, but
