BALTIMORE. Md. January 1.-The
increase in the number of burglary
and holp-up crimes during this year
is the greatest in Ss2 history OF the
local companies wriga.s that form OF
insurance.
These companies have paid more
losses during the past twelve months
than ever before and have been COM
PEELED TO tighten the terms under
which policies are written. THESE
crimes are being committed by a new
class of criminals which has sprung
up since the war, according TO sur
vey now being completed by. Paul l.
Wellener manager of the burglary
insurance department of one Of the.
largest insurance and bonding COM:
panies in the country.
The criminals, it is declared, are
men, the majority under twenty-five,
years of age, who worked in ship
yards, ammunition plants and other
wartime industries during the war;
These men, he declared, were paid
high wages and when the war ended
many refused postwar salaries and
took to bootlegging, later falling into,
other bad ways.
Mr.. WelIener also blamed jazz" for
much OF the crime.

HOLDINGS OF OLD TIMER
 SOLD BY ADMINISTRATORS

When John Lutschinger Of Nome died recently with the flu his holdings were considered the most extensive of any one man in the Nome mining dis trict. Many of the claims lie in the richest pay belt of Nome and are con- sidered valuable mining property.
 The administrator of the estate sold these claims recently to the highest bidder, pursuant to a Probate Cou1H order dated October 12, 1920.
 The claims involved in the sale are said to have numbered S4. besides which two ditch systems known as the Lutschinger and Iowa ditches were in cluded. Of the 34 claims sold Luis chinger owned outright the maJorhy of them while in a few he merely held an equity. Six of the claims were pat ented and several others were in the stage of being patented.

VENERABLE STATESMAN HAS
 PASSED FROM SCENE

There is something pleasing in thu as the United States, passing through one of the hectic periods of it's eNis- tence, finds time to pause in tribute as one of it's illustrious men whose cup of life has been filled to overiloWing. disappears from the stage after half q century of service to his country. The people no longer regard Uncle Joe Cannon, who has retired from con g-ess to his own volition, in the light wherein he was made to appear ten years ago during the Insurgency which wrested from the speaker of the house the powers which gave him the title of "czar" Rather it looks upon the venerable statesman as one who though possibly not adverse to yielding all the power that came to him-believed in a more highly cen tralized system of directing govern ment than exists at Washington today but withal as a man ever jealous ol his country's honor, and a believer in it's destiny. And sometimes, viewing the sort of system or lack oI system, that succeeded "Cannonism,' one won ders whether that which gave Uncle Joe the title of czar did not possess distinct advantages as well as disad- yantages. But regardless of what his tory says of that or what the interpre- tation of scientific government may be, none will deny that Uncle Joe played a prominent part in stirring period of the great national drama and that he deserves to be remembered not only as one of it's outstanding speakers but also as one Of the most notable men the house of representa- lives has produced.

SUGAR PRICES RISE WITH SUR

It is doubted whether the proposed in vestigation by the United States senate of "profiteering" in sugar will get any further than most investiga- lions of the kind, but that some sort of action is desirable is evident on the face of statistics showing that there is not shortage of sugar but an ac- tual surplus. The Sugar barons of Gu ba in particular, who always take ad- vantage of an opportunity to lift pric- es are trying to make Americans pay for the temporary deficits which they sustained when they passed through a period of deflation-and probably some others along the line between them and the consumers are taking an extra profit also.

quicker we get back to the former
system, under under which the county
commissioners were given supervision
Of state highway maintenance, the
better. Tourists and travelling sales
men say that the Inland Empire high
way in Benton county is the worst
stretch of state highway in the state.
For this reason tourist park tenders
and others report that tourist travel
though this section is falling off
rather than increasing.
The fact that the state highway de-
partment intends to do some work in
Benton county doesn't help the road
which has gone to pieces while the de-
partment has been getting ready.
Eventually the state department
may give better satisfaction than did
the county commissioners but the To-
cal public will always be at the dis
advantage of having to cuss out the
state department at long range.
