RADIO AND THE
LAWBKEAkERS

The "long arm of the law" may
be increased in length by the
radio. This possibility is suggest
ed by the proposal OF wireless
net over the entire country for
the arrest Of desperate criminals
by the police of all cities which
has just been advanced from De-
troit. Maj. Sullivan, superintend-
ent of police here, has been con-
suited and is now considering the
proposal.
AT present the telegraph and the
telephone are employed in criminal
pursuit, even as formerly the mails
constituted the chief reliance Of
the police in following fugltives
from Justice. The radio permits an
immediate broadcasting Of infor-
nation in all directions. A single
message transmitted from Wash
ington, for example, reache; not
only all police officials in every
city. but millions Of people, who
become thereby informed Of the
requisition for arrest. Possibly IN
this latter fact lies disadvantage
in the broadcasting method
through the giving of information
to the criminals themselves or
their friends or others who are
beyond the pale of law and have
a sympathetic feeling for all those
who are sought by the police.
1t is extremely difficult now for
I'm low h L To |
a description of him is available it
can be placed in the possession of
police officials in every city with
in a few hours of the commission
of the crime. Photographs al
ready widely distributed of pre-
viously arrested persons are avail
able for reference. If the fugitive
is a newcomer in the ranks OF
lawbreakers, and his photograph is
to be had, it can be sent out to the
confines of the country within q
few days, travelling almost as fast
as he can go himself. The radio
will not facilitate this process Of
identification unless devices for
the reproduction of pictures by
ireless are perfected.
The meshes of the laws net are
undoubtedly becoming finer, and
the net itself extending, despite
the vast area to be covered within
this jurisdiction, the plight of the
person who seeks to escape ha 5
become, indeed, desperate. If the
procedure of trial and punishment
were as speedy, law enforcement in
the United States would be, in
deed, effective, but. unfortunately,
it would seem that the more effici-
ent the process of criminal catch
ing becomes the slower goes the
work for the agency for trial AMI
punishment.-Wa Washington Star.

THE MATRIMONIAL
LIFE PRESERVER

1t does beat the dickens how our
scientific men have to devote years
Of study and investigation to the
discovery Of the most obvious facts
of life that they might learn in
five minutes conversation with any
ordinary layman.
Here is DR.. Royal S. Copeland,
for instance - New York's health
commissioner and senator-elect -
Just making the discovery that
married men live longer than
single ones, backing up his an
nouncement with charts and fig
ures. and kidding himself into the
belief that he has stumbled upon a
brand-new fact tucked away as a
closely guarded secret by hand
full of actuaries
We hate to depreciate any capt.
tai he may have expected to make
out of the nugget unearthed by
scientific research, but we rise to
remark right now that every man
has known. from the time Of Adam,
that marriage prolongs life, for ex-
actly the reasons belatedly adj
duced by DR.. Copeland, i. e., that
when man finds a woman to cod
die him existence at once becomes
easier and there is a elimination
OF the irritating wear and tear
that trays the Sthread of life. A
man who COOKS for himself is
bound to die early.\ A man whose
socks are undarned and who has
rents in his clothing and buttons
missing from his garments is go
ing to suffer from cold and drafts
and catch pneumonia and kick off

Matrimony lubricates the cog
wheels Of life, and the old lpatri-
archs were wise enough just to
wallow in that kind Of oil. Men
who do not marry are constantly
being sent to the shop for repairs,
and find their way to the scrap
heap by the time they ought to be

Nick. "Do you wish to speak to Mr..

"I'll be right over"
"Ill be waiting near the light

Nick arrived at the ocean in just
little while( having his Magic

there was Mr.. Whale holding let

said at once. "My friends helped

So Nick unfolded the paper and

that his hand might be free to greet
her. He waved airily as they came

and again he greeted her, to be an

1t was thus that old friends had
passed him by in Boston; it was thus
that men who had been glad to bor-
row money from him in other days
had looked the other way when the
clouds had come. A strange chill
went over him.
"Thayer's told her!"
He spoke the sentence like man

His features suddenly had grown
haggard. He stumbled slightly as
he made the next rise in the road

But neither is it all sewer.

That l can't bring myself to care
For dirt for dirt's sake, or for truck
That bathes, by preference, in muck.

And not the mire that makes it
