A TENANTS RIGHTS

A court in Jamaica, New York, by sending an apartment house owner to the workhouse for sixty days be- cause she failed to provide heat to her tenants, emphasized the fact that acceptance of rent payments carries responsibility. It seems that two hundred tenants were without heat during a cold snap, and several per. sons became i'll from exposure. The threadbare excuse that the heating apparatus failed to function was re- jected by the court after investiga- ton revealed that the coal cellars contained no fuel. In the absence of coal shortage or a breakdown in transportation, the court properly re. fused to consider the excuses, and decided that fine was not sufficient punishment; so the owner of the apartments will have time to think things over behind the bars.
 Not the least benefit from the courts decision will be the exefn- plary effects upon many landlords whose avarice prompts them to neg lect their tenants and subject them to serious hardships, until there are widespread demands for more effec- tive rent laws and constructive regu- lations. A. few sentences for viola tion of inherent obligations would reveal to the tenants some rights they might otherwise not know they possess.

NOT CONFINED TO MISSOURI

A Kansas City judge, instructing a grand jury the other day, condemned the open violation of the liquor laws in the community, and declared that there were violations within hearing of his voice, within stone's throw of the courtroom. Such condition is not confined to Missouri. It may be found in many places.
 The liquor laws are on the statute books, and should be enforced as vigorously as any other laws. With sincere effort on the part of those who are charged with enforcement, there is no reason why these particu- lar laws should be flouted. AS long as there is official connivance, there will be lax public attitude. Wher- ever there has been genuine official determination, supported by action, to enforce the law, public sentiment has revealed itself as unmistakably and cordially in support of vigorous enforcement. "Why select one law to question:" asks a Georgia con. temporary, which adds: "If laws are unfair or oppressive, there is way to correct the evil, but not by non observance or opposition to enforce ment." Gradually that view is com ing to prevail.

LEGAL PROBE OF OIL LEASES

The nation Will approve the de- cision of President Coolidge with
 respect to the leasing of naval oil lw,crves. The ptcsldent intends to proceed with special all-embracinG court inquiry, 'so that if there is any guilt it will be punished; if there is any civil liability it will be enforced; if there is any fraud it will be revealed, and if there are any contracts which are illegal they will be cancelled" There is suspicion that there are all of these things wrong with the leases. The Repub- licans cannot hope to hush the scan- dal up, and the only way they can save their prestige with the people is to reveal and repudiate whatever wrong-doing has been committed
 Even the attorney general will not be entrusted with the investigation of the record of former cabinet colleague, but able and distinguished special counsel have been detailed for this duty. The secret and casual transfer to private exploitation of two hundred and fifty million barrels of fuel oil existing in a reserve spe- officially by act of congress set aside for national emergencies is direct blow at our public safety. Not only the department of the interior, but also the department of the navy is implicated, if not in the ong-doing, at least in the probable illegality of the transfer. MT. Denby's profes- sion of ignorance of the technicali- ties of the document he signed only shows that he failed to employ expert advice in a matter of far-reaching potentialities.

WHO IS coNCEITED?
By Thomas l.. Mason

1 have always had an utter detestation of eonceit in any form, although my own immediate family are constantly telling me that 1 am the most cOiiceited thina they meet The fact is, however that !, reputation for cOnceit is often due to secret feelings of envy on the part of others which frequently puts the victim on the defensive and makes him appear worse than ever.
 Not long ago Mir. Laurence Stallings, writing about Joseph Hergesheimer and about a book that Hergesheimer had re- gently written about himself, implies that the novelist thinks himself very inn poftant. Admitting that Mir. Herge- sheihier 'sis ont of the best literary men, Mir. Stallngs says: He regards himself in so majestic n manner thnt it becomes Infection and "Mr. Herge- sheimer has lately been pleased to iot down few recollectiOns of his origin
 do not mean to imply thk Mir. Stall ings is secretly enviOus of Mir. Herge- Rhciiner. because that would not be true, but only that his impressions of the nov elist are in my opinion superficial. gath erad from book thnt--although I have not seen it---loubtlpss conveys an atinos- phere of Importance
 The fact is that Joe HergeSheimer s as l see it, when one comes to ku0w him one of the most modest men in the world His owii attitude about himself like thht of great many first-r,ite artists, is one of constant surprise and delight He is very much like an unSpoiled child who Lis constantly being surprised by the VI. riety of his own personality. But he is altogether too much interested in other people and too human, to have any sense of superiority. He has, as everyone knows who knows his work, an enormous flair for antiques. He pointed out tC me once vase.
 What is your feeling about that ?' he asked.
 "I have none" l replied.
 So far as I could observe. he did not hold this deficiency of mine against me He continued to be as friendly as before

THOSE "AMAZONS"
lNaw York Evening Post

t-hn conclusions of the president or Roanoke College that "the world has never seen the turning loose of such an army of hard-drinkiHg, cigarette puffins and licentious amazons as walk the streets and invade college camp,ises today, may be ilnduly pes simistic. In every age the sober ..slder generation has been gravely concerned over the moral derelictions of the younger All wickedness had it's beginning in the present younger generation. Nothing like it in our day"
 And yet the last generation was doubtless disturbed ovre the moral looseness of the older generation of today which Is shocked at the young CT now. And so 1t has gone through the centuries. More women smoke cigarettes today, but not so maily smoke pipes Nas in the days of the hardy pioneers. A generation ago 1t wns not unusual to encOunetr an old lady boring over her Bible while puffing at a clay pipe. And the H. centious dancing of today is not more distressing to the older genera. ton than was the waltz the young folks took to in the '30s to the hor- TOT of the then older generation whieh began to humble about Sodom and Gomorrah. And betting parties are merely variations on those that have come down from long before the time when Cleopatra used q barge on the Nile instead Of a linn cuisine.
 Perhaps we are not so nearly damned after all. Permit sngges- ton of cure for pessimism Spend an evening with the plays of Con greve. and then turn to your Ma enulay and read that good Queen Mary" never missed a Congreve play
 But maybe the leftUvers from the days of Cromwell thought that aw- full, too.

A BRUTALITY OF iNTEREsr

In spite of the mysterious and previously unannounced opposition on the part of the mayor of Mobile against the Ford offer, it now ap. pears that not only is Mayor Taylor officially on record in support of a Mobile resolution urging the Ford offer, but that his change of attitude is deprecated and disavowed by both of his fellow-commissioners, and by the people of Mobile generally. h. deed, the people of Mobile are oh record through the indorsefnent of almost every organization in that city as heartily favoring the Ford offer. There may be those who op- pose 1t, but they are comparatively rew. Anyone presuming to discuss the matter as an official of Mobile is in duty and allegiance bound to make it clear that the community of the seaport indorses and calls for the early enactment of a congressional resolution authorizing Ford to 60 ahead.
 It is recalled that only few short months ago the people of Mo- bile were actively soliciting statewide support ofIa project very dear to them. That project was state devel- opment of port facilities. The peo- pie of Alabama, after studying the merits of the port and its importance to Alabama, cordially indorsed the Mobile program by a majority vote, and now view with anticipations of mutual benefit the progress being made to that end by the able docks commission. Just as the people of Mobile and South Alabama called upon the rest of Alabama for in dorsement of the seaport develop rnent, so now the people of Muscle Shoals and North Alabama justly expect similar cordial approval of the project most dear to them, namely, the industrial development of their territory as contemplated in the Ford bid for Muscle Shoals. The seaport's prosperity can ensue only if the state is prosperous and indus trially productive. No more inviting field of industrial development ex- ists than in North Alabama in the vicinity of the Shoals, a territory rich in potential export tonnage and looking to Mobile at the most direct and feasible outlet to world ports.
 Mobile is no longer isolated, but, as the seaport of all this rich inland region, her hope of expansion is in dissolubly joined with the industrial expansion of Alabama and contigu- ous territory. Fortunately, there is reliable evidence thst the people of Mobile recognize this interlocking and mutuality of interest, and the Mobile sentiment, favoring the indus trial development of thu Tennessee Valley as in fnseparable accompani. ment of the utilization of Shoals power, is unmistakable.

PEOPLES FORUM
A Grade. Crossing Suggestion

To the Editor of The Age Herald
 In considering the street-car accident of Thursday, and the action to be taken upon the elimination of dangerous grade crossings, the natural question arises us to why. the Twenty y-first street viaduct Is not used for street-car traffic
 At the time the viaduct wns completed it was such pretty toy, sentine little red wagon. that such use could not be thought of by the city commission then in office, but how the varnish is Il little dpller, and it would seem about time to give the structure the use that it was built for. That use is the safe means of transportation for the citizens in con ducting their affairs. and includes their necessity for riding upon street cars .. The street-car and other traffic at Twentieth street is dangerous. and the full use of the viaduct would immediately reduce that danger. s. B. KNOX.
