Another Neglected American.

Savages, when confronted by some
one of a different tribe, with differ
ent war-paint, and a different jar
gon, usually do one of two things,
run or fight.
People today, and perhaps espe-
cially Americans, when confroneed
by anyone of different color or diff
ferent ideas, react exactly as the
savages do; they want to run from
the stranger or attack him.
AS long as the minds of the peo-
pie of each nation are limited 10
their own particular ideas; as long
as people refuse to examine men and
ideas that are new, and instead mere
ly run from them or fight them, pro-
gress will be slow and happiness Will
he often swept before debaucheries
of ignorance and prejudice.
The impulse to flee from ideas that
are new explains many things. 1t ex-
| plains why the name of Thomas Paine
is not more prominently linked with
Washington's in the history Of the
Revolutionary war; it also explains
another neglected American, this one
a man dead scarcely twenty-five years.
Robert Ingersoll was the youngest
son of an erratic Congregational
minister. Though he could not go to
Yale as his older brother did, he was
a full-fledged lawyer at 20 years OF
age. He ran for congress from Hi
nois and was licked; served as a col
onel in the Civil war; served as at
torney general of Illinois and was al
most governor.
In the curse of his legal studies
he began to doubt that the Bible was
the inspired word. Slavery, poly
gamy and other crimes were toe
prominently mentioned. The idea OF
eternal punishment didn't sound rea-
sonable. Where others were silent
with their doubts, he spoke out.

THE number and the variety of opinions expressed by

the request of this newspaper, in association with Inter-

pers, show that the prevalence of crime is stirring deep
and widespread interest. 1t is apparent that everywhere
thoughtful men and women are studying present-day
crime and seeking to find the causes for it.
Labor men, who are in closer touch with the. great
masses of the people than are most so-called crime ex-

effects and trying to see beneath the surface to find out
the why's and wherefores.
Their answers, as here published from week to week,
will be presented to the National Crime Commission for
the consideration of that body.

MAHON REPLIES:
War and VOlstead .
BY w. ID. MAHON
President, A~malgamated Association
of Street and Electric Railway
EMPLOYEES of America,

In my opinion there are two dis
tict and clear causes for the recent
increase of crime. One is the eco
nomic results Of the recent war, and
the other is the adoption of the Vol
stead act.
First, as an effect of the war, the
cost Of living and necessities of life
were raised, as it were, to the clouds,
nd with the cry of patriotism the
worker wa kept down to the lowest
possible wage that he could exist on.
As a result of the war thousands of
millionaries, many who were unknown
and had nothing prior to the war, took
advantage of the unfortunate condi-
tons that confronted their country
and became ~millionaires. When the
wal was over these new captains of
industry took the same advantage OF
the worker that they had taken of
their country in its hour of distress,
and have whenever possible. reduced
wages while the mosts of living and
the necessities of life have been kept
up to the highest point and in some
cases increasd. The disregard for
pdlfioIiSll, loI ldWi lof HOioi, vi VIC
part of these, and their treatment of
the worker, the returned soldier in
cluded, has had a great effect in
breaking down law and order and en-
couraging crime.
Second, the Volstead law which at
tempts to regulate the appetites of
the people by law, has been the other
great demoralizing effect. The great
majority of our people have no res
pect or consideration for this law. 1t
has produced armies of bootleggers
and persons who have engaged in VIC
lation of the law to handle and sell Ii
quor. Their acts, | repeat are en-
couraged by millions of our people.
