NO GLASS DISTINCTION
Daugherty Says Law Must Be En- forced Equally Against All Sorts of People in America.

Miami, Fla, March 20.-Enforce- | ment of law equally against all classes l today stands out as factor on which | much depends towards advancement of the nation, according to Attorney Gen. Daugherty who last night ad- | dressed the Florida bar association here through letter. MT. Daugherty
 was unable to attend in person be- cause of his recent illness.
 "Conscientious and determined er- fort" to enforce laws, he wrote, will finally break down stubborn refusal to obey law" which he continued
 might temporarily prevent universal and perfect enforcement
 The laws he said should be en-. forced against the rich and the so- called poor" against the majority and against the minority"
 And everywhere in the land, or upon the sea, wherever the courts shall hold that governmental juris- diction extends"
 Mir. Daugherty pledged his office and urged cooperation of the law yers in sustaining power and influ- ence which guarantees the continu- ance of constitutional government which now more than ever, is neces- sary and is now, more than ever by all intelligent peoples throughout the world recognized as the ideal govern ment of any Godfearing and God rec- ognizing people,"

HONEST NEWSBOY RETURNS

Daniel Fruchdman Reads Host Ad" in "Herald' and Makes Young Wom- an Happy-Objects to Reward The following letter has been re- ceived by the editor of the Herald" which all goes to prove that the youth of today is just as honest as the youth of other days. A Herald" newsboy, Daniel Fruchdman, found a sum of money, looked for lost ad in the Herald" discovered the own er's name and returned it as soon as possible. The lost and found head ing in the Herald" classified col umns, contains every night just such examples of the above. The follow ing is the letter received:
 "463 Church Street,
 New Britain, Conn.,.
 March r, 1928. Editor. New Britain Herald,
 City
 Dear Sir:
 May I say word or two in praise of the honesty of one of your paper boys by the name of Daniel Fruchdman. My daughter was un- fortunate enough to lose her weekly pay envelope on Friday, the 18th. A lost ad was inserted in the 'Herakis on Saturday. the 17th, and at about 1880 p. m. of that evening, this lit- tie fellow returned her the envelope with contents.
 He proved to be very manly lit- tie chap and it was with much diff culty that the writer persuaded him to accept small reward. He in- formed me that it was his intention to insert a found ad in the paper, had he not seen one advertising the loss.
 This I know he would have done. and in view of the fact that the temptation these days, among many boys, is to keep what they find of value, I believe this little incident 1 should not go by without at least a passing reference to the honesty of this particular Herald newsboy.
 Very truly yours,
 I'll. R. BOARDMAN."

Glad He Had Nothing
To Leave Children

TOO often have l seen fathers for

dFen, and rather than expose you to
such a risk l rejoice that / have no
fortune to leave you. my dear chill
dren."
The father who made this obserYa-
ton in his will was the beloved Phil
adelphia rabbi, Joseph krauskopf,
who died June IL. DR.. Krauskopf
went on to remind his children that
they had received the necessary edu-
cation and home training to equip
them to carve for themselves a use
full career without the aid of inheri-
lance. He reminds them that from the
age of twelve he had been obliged to
make his own way, and could not but
believe that he was the better for
1t. 1t was for his children to take the
same Toy in accomplishment as he had
done.
Here is a wise and benefcent
legacy. 1t is. indeed, all that the nor
NAL man should ask. 4 strong body,
a trained mind and an inspiring eX-
ample of one who has gone before
is ample to all the requirements OF
life in America. The, percentage of
successful and worthy sons of rich
fathers is so small as to give suffi-
cient weight to DR. Krauskopf's state
ment. There is something better than

On me the world must look.
The desk is where l have TO sit
To get my picture took.
Though in the open I can think
And formulate a plan.
Into a chair betimes, l sink
To face the camera man.
A mass of papers l disclose.
With here and there a book
That desk is where / have to pose
To get my picture took.

Milk.

The District health officer and HE
cohorts are hunting for thin milk and
there is a popular impression that
they may find some. 1t Is said that
the eating houses are being visited
to determine whether the milk served
does or does not come up to the but
ter-fat requirement. Legal milk should
have ga per cent of butter fat. 1t is
not thought that many. or even any,
of our lunch and dinner hosts are de-
liberately serving US with SKINNED
milk or blue milk, but cream rises to
the surface and the fluid in the con-
tainer may not be kept so mixed that
each guest gets his share of butter fat.
One guest gets too much, another too
little. And generally it seems to be
the other fellow who gets too much.
Dairymen have said that they some
times find it hard to hold the COWS
up to the observance of the law on
butter-fat production. Cows have their
difficulties because dairymen will only
support those which are large milk
producers, and to give a large output
of milk and yet keep it up to DIR.
Fowler's cream standard sometimes
