refuse to prosecute" through tinidity,
lack of backbone or intimidation. Many
people have queer idea Of the law.
They look upon the law as something
that is imposed upon them for their
regulation and annoyance. On the con-
trary, the law is not an attempt to regu-
late the conduct of the law-abiding man
but it is a protection thrown around his
citizenship to prevent arrangements on
his rights by law violators. Hence the
criminal is entitled to no sympathy. So
long as he is given a fair and impartial
trial, he too has received his protection
from the law and it is the duty and
not the privilege of every citizen when
called upon, to appear in court and
help place the facts before the jury.
This does not mean that each law
abiding citizen is thereby designated as
self-appointed detective to ferret out
crime. On the contrary, good citizen
will not infringe IN the rights of his
neighbor, nor will he annoy him or cause
him unnecessary trouble and expense
But it frequently happens that when the
police have caught burglar or motor
car thief, or a prowler or some other
law-breaker of similar type, an otherwise
good and worthy citizen who is in pos
session OF the evidence necessary to con-
Wet is decidedly backward in aiding the
prosecution.
A story is told OF an English police
man struggling with a crook. A citi-
zen ran to his aid and fought desperately
to subdue the law breaker. When an
American asked him why he did so, he
replied that the policeman was his agent,
that he was helping pay his salary to
apprehend crooks and that it was his
duty to back him up.
Many Americans have the opposite
view. We lock upon the policeman not
as Our special agent charged with the
difficult and at times dangerous task OF
protecting us in Our person and prop
erty but rather as a sort of meddling
supervisor appointed by the city to tell
us what to do.
People should be courteous to the Of
ficer, encourage him to be a good police
man, assist him in his work within prop
er bounds and go willingly into court
when requested, to help secure justice.
Few of us realize the task we have
set for our policemen. They are charged
with unfolding the law over wide area,
night and day. They can not be in all
parts OF the city at all hours. Grimes
are often committed no matter how
vigilant the police may be. The least
any law abiding citizen can do is to
extend cooperation and sympathetic en-
enlargement to the officers of the law
and to aid them in court when possible.
1t is duty that is more often observed
in the breach than in the performance.
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1923-08-26

Americanism is in fair way to be-
come myth. But most Americans have
a law-proof idea of Americanism. II
that idea is not practiced by govern
ment officials, then the people will ap-
prove the efforts of theatrical folk TO
belittle laws which depart from the abid-
ing ideals which define Amcricanism.
If Judges should don the garb of
clowns, what sort of impression would
they make upon the people? About the
same impression as that achieved by
men who make laws contrary to popu-
lar wishes and expect everybody to ac-
cept such statutes as the final word
on Americanism.

LAW-PROOF AMERICANISM

A Texas federal Judge went East re-
Gently in search OF recreation and enter
tainment, and returned highly displeased
with what he had found there-namely,
tendency" to belitle the country's
laws. He didn't say, in the interview
in which he deplored this trend" Just
what laws were being treated disrespect-
fully; but this omission is not vital, as
it is made up for by certain words whose
significance is easily understood.
The judge objected particularly to "the
evident studied effort" of play writers
ito make some kind of ironical reference
to what they are pleased to call Amer
ica's puritanical laws and puritanical
trend" He went TO the theaters to be
amused. But the plays hadn't been
written for the amusement of federal
judges who take their work seriously
even when they are off the bench. They
were written for people who have said,
or who may some day have an oppor-
tunity to say. Good morning, Judge"
because they have dared to crafty tastes
with which they think the law should
not be concerned.
"My idea" this judge is quoted as
saying, SIS that the theater should con-
fine itself to its field" II they would
, do that, he thinks. then the "slop-over
5 philosophy" would be "less evident" and
the American people would not "have SC
