some of its time to the problem instead of to
politics Industry locates in cities where it is
treated fairly. 1t locates in cities where the

The problem facing Indianapolis is that
of giving business and industry everything
possible without encroaching on the rights of
private citizens
When this is done, Indianapolis business
will grow and the city will grow with it.

WASHINGTON, March 25.-Much
has been said and will be said as
to the Influence Of "partisanship" in
the action by the Senate in twice
rejecting the nomination OF Charles
Beecher Warren to be United States
attorney general.
The cry of partisanship" is
easily raised. 1t is difficult to re-
flute. 1t is a charge that easily
catches the public attention, and
in the absence Of a full under
standing of a given situation is like
ly to be accepted by the public as
the chief basis on which opposition
is founded.
1t is most probable that the
country now believes and win con-
tinue to believe that partisanship
was the controlling factor in the
struggle over the Warren appoint
ment.
That it was factor. no one who

C~1HIEF RIKHOFF yesterday
ordered stricter search Of
~ persons slated by police.
Finding hacksaw blades concealed
on a prisoner after he was trans
ferred to Marion county jsii !. om
the city Jail aroused the chief.
Hacksaw blades are interesting
playmates to, lock up with a deter
mined prisoner who does not par
ucularly care for jails and has ali
appetite for freedom.
With police, searching arrested
persons becomes perfunctory rou-
tine. Unless 1t is a notorious
desperate the search is only a
pat here and there to reveal a.
bullying hip or a piece Of lead
pipe.
Frequently prisoners carry with
them into confinement articles
from which can be fashioned tools
to effect escape. 1t is almost as
easy to break out of jails in this
country as 1t is to break in.
Every day more than fifty
prisoners escape from custody in
the United States, principally from
jails. More escape in a day than
in a month in any other country.
Which is another American
record.
Laxness in searching and guard
ing prisoners after arrest is a
major factor in this constant leak.
age.
1t costa money to arrest male
factors and the investment is a
total loss when they escape from
custody. SO prisoners should be
searched with a vacuum cleaner.
A prisoner possessing no metal
articles except gold-filled toeth
isn't likely to break Jail. He can t
bite his way out.

Indians Waiting TO
Harvest B|ueberry Crop.

Three hundred Indians are re.
ported waiting at the Lake of the
Woods for the blueberries to ripen
in order to pick them for the
blueberry cannery at Baudette.
The Indians were all prepared to
60 to work this week, but the
berries are about ten days later
than usual in ripening this year
The Indians in the meantime are
not enjoying a very heavy bill of
fare, as many of them travelled
long distances to pick the berries,
and their supply of cash is about
exhausted. While the berries are
late they have been growing to an
immense size, and the best crop in
the history of that district is ex-
pected. In spite of the fact that
there will be hundreds of pickers,
it is expected that only about two
per cent of the berries will be
picked. The cannery at Baudette
is all set for operation. 4
