AND IS THIS JUSTICE?

Should one conclude his SYM
pathies unduly susceptible or mis-
guided If they go out-just a little
way-toward the recently apprehend-
ed New York hooch maker. who
humanely tested his wares on
guinea pigs before offering them to
his fellow humans?
He stands alone among hooch
makers so far as revealed in two i'm
portant particulars; instead of be-
ing willing to murder a fellow being
with what he knows to be deadly
poison, instead Of connecting wood
alcohol for sale as beverage. he re-
stricts himself to that which will
give delight to pigs and which they
may survive.
And yet, presumably. our learned
dispensers of Justice" will impose on
that seller of such demonstrated de-
light to pigs the same kind of fine
that is imposed on those caught SELL
Ing that which blinds and paralyzes
where 1t does not kill outright.
Caveat emptor seems to satisfy their
consciences, but what about the laws
against administering poisons?

No disrespect to our little Kansas

are to admire art and artists let us
be sure that we know the real from

there are never many, and of great
art there is none too much. And
these genuine artists have usually
worked very quietly. very modestly

content with scant recognition and
scantier reward. Then for what, in

Ste Marie says that when he went

near the garbage pail. The bird start

when an owl of this kind appears in

Apparently an attempt had been
made to burn the body as bits of
burned blanket and an overall buckle
were found in the ashes Of a camp
fire in another part Of the canyon.
The condition of the body would not
permit location of bullet wounds.
Miss Perdue had been the object of
search started by rancherS October

her cabin at the chicken ranch she
operated and found 1t in disorder, with
no trace of the owner. A shattered OIL
lamp lay on the porch, while Miss
Perdue's collie dog lay dead in the
yard Bullet holes in the cabin walls
and blood stains leading from a door
indicated she had been called to the
porch in the night and shot to death.
Three miles down the canyon from
the fire in which the slayers attempt
ed to burn the body, officers found a
complete distilling outfit. The theory
that robbery was the motive for the

it was discovered she kept only small

GALES PROPOSES
LIMIT ON CLERGY
Submits Regulations Reduc.
ing Catholic Priests to 80
in Federal District.
~ the Associated Press.

MEXICO CITY, october 16.-Pres-
ident Gales has submitted to con-
gress proposed regulations limiting
the number of Catholic priests and
ministers of every denomination per-
mitted to function within the feoerai
district to 90 for each denomlnatloh'
1t is estimated that there are Soo
Catholic priests at present in the
federal district and 40 ministers OF
all other religious congregations.
Eighteen clergymen of each de-
nomination would be permitted 10
function for the territory of Lower
California and three for the terrl-
tory of Quintana Roo (Yucatan).
Foreign Priests Departed.
The number of Catholic priests In
the federal district has been de-
creased recently. Foreign priests
have departed because Of enforcement
Of the religious clauses of the con-
stitution which provide that no 1or-
eigners may function in Mexico.
Under the proposed regulations the
various denominations, other tnah
Catholics, could increase their minis
terial representation to go, While the
Catholics would he forced to reduce
theirs to 90 The new regulations
would apply only in the federal dls'
trict and Mexico's two territories, be-
cause each state already has the power
TO fix the number Of priests and min
listers allowed to function in them.
Penalties Are Provided.
The new regulations, il passed by
Congress, would not affect the rell'
Rious regulations promulgated by
President Gales in July, which caused
the Catholic episcopate to suspend
services in all Catholic churches In the
republic The new regulations provide
for dismissal from office and also pos
sihle fines or Imprisonment for all gov
ernment officials failing to enforce the
prescribed limitation of priests ano
ministers.
The priests and ministers would be
required to register with the municipal
authorities. Failure to do so would be
punishable by fine of 500 pesos ano
SO hours in jail. or 8 days In jail II
