AMERICA VERSUS EUROPE

Seeing America First at Last is the title of an interesting article Tn a recent number of Golfers Magazine from the pen of Samuel Crowther, who admits that he never had seen the United States or appreciated its bigness and it's greatness until he re- gently made study of conditions in Europe.
 MT. Crowther makes some interest ing contrasts which are altogether to the credit of Americans. He says we are far ahead of the rest of the world in our thinking; that in Amer ica business means service, and our classes are the classes of ability; and he attributes much of Europe's trou- ble to the idea that business is talk ing as much as possible from the other fellow
 When we read of the great indus trial centers of Germany, particularly the Ruhr, of which much has been written in the past year, we get an impression that our own great indus tries lead those of other countries by narrow margins. Yet Mr. Crowther observes that the United States Steel Corporation could take in all of the iron and steel properties of Europe and only students of the steel indus try would notice the addition to it's assets. We think of Europe's indus tries as great only because they are so described to us by those who are not familiar with America.
 Reference is also made to the auto industry abroad, and we are told that If the big Fiat plant at Turin, the pride of Italy, were transferred to Detroit, with it's capacity of 200 cars a day, it's presence would excite no comment whatever alongside of Henry Ford's large plant In fact, the trans fer of any single European industry to town in the United States would be only a local news item, with the possible exception of some of the Ger man chemical plants.
 Mir. Crowther says that Europeans are opposed to war, as pestilence, and he did not meet anyone who was not in favor of the total abolition of war and saving Europe. The only

13 YEAR OLD BOY CONVICTED
 OREGON POSTOFFICE ROBBERY

PORTLAND, March 6-George w. Stone, 13, rosy-cheeked boy, was con victed of the robbery of the Myrtle Creek postoffice after jury in the federal court here had considered the case for four hours and fifteen min utes today.
 Allan A. Bynon, assistant United States attorney asked the court to postpone sentence until an invesiga- tion could be made as to the best home in which the boy can be put. The court set the first Monday in April as the date for sentence.
 Government officials said .hey were considering placing the by in the hands of Ben Lindsey, juvenile judge at Denver
 George did not bat an eye when the verdict of the jury was read. He merely glanced at the great clock i1 the courtroom, which had been pack ed all day with people interested in the outcome of the trial of the young est mail robber on record.
 George was charged with taking two sacks of mail from the postoffice at Myrtle Creek, Ore. He confessed to the officers but afterwards repudi ated that confession. He admitted or the stand that he had made it, but said that he was nervous at the time and wanted to get home and so said anything that the officers wanted him to say. The lad was traced through finger prints in the dust of the tran som through which he crawled to get into the postoffice.

That he is certain to go regardless of any defense he could make, was inevitable. The question was, how long could he hold on.
