CANTON is CALLED WAY STATION
ON NATIONAL CRIME HIGHWAY
Shaving of MeIIett Held Direct Challenge to Country
Indicating Need for Drastic Action to Wipe
Out Vicious Ring.

| land, Youngstown, Pittsburgh, and
from these neighboring cities on out
through the length and breadth of
the Nation. The peddler of dope in
Canton is a brother and ally of the
peddler in San Francisco or Los Ange-
les. They belong to a criminal fra
ternity They guard and protect each
other. There are certain recognized
Ravens for criminals. Canton is one
deal in Cleveland can come here
and be covered up. The skulking hired
assassin who shoots to death a pub
lic-spirited editor in Canton finds
refuge in any one of half a dozen
cities which can be quickly reached in
the highpowered car, always the
agency of escape in a criminal out
rage.
Police departments everywhere are
eogniZant of the rising tide of crime.
In virtually every American city to-
day pleas are being made for a
larger and better-paid police force.
New York recently added something
like 5000 policemen. Pittsburgh has
been demanding at least 600 more
bluecoats.
Canton perhaps has been more COM
placent than some other communities.
That is what stirred Mellett to ac-
ton. That is what made him prefer
charges against the chief of police
and have him suspended, only to see
him restored through political infiu-
ence. The chief of police in turn
sued Mellett's paper, the Canton
News, an entity in the news league
owned by former Gov. Cox of Day
ton, for $4,000 libel.
Called political Dictator"
At the height of the quarrel be-
tween Mellett and the Canton police
Mellett was murdered. The chief of
police came out with the statement
that Mellett wanted to be the ''politi-
cal dictator" of Canton. The police.
accused by Mellett of collision with
the underworld" were not friendly
to the editor.
Perhaps that is why county and
State authorities have taken further
investigation of the shocking crime
out of the hands of the police. Today
a separate and distinct "headquar-
ters" was set up for the outside in
veStigators, working under direction
of the county prosecutor, stirred TO
action by the Indignation of the lead
ing citizens of the community. Al
most every train into Canton brings
some new under cover" operative,
including special agents of the Gov
eminent at Washington.
1t is small wonder Canton has call.
ed for outside help. The police blot
tiers here show there have been AZ
murders in the city in the last five
years, which is. going rather strong
for q community of 100000 souls,
even in a Nation trimming over with
crime. Thirteen murderers have been
convicted, but not sent othe electric
chair. In approximately half of tho
cases no arrests were made. Two
murders preceded the Mellett case
this month Canton has become all
too accustomed to the ring of the
shot from the dark.

AMERICAN DUCHESS.
FIGHTS FOR TITLE:
Former Helen Zimmerman to
Oppose Renewal of
Divorce Suit.
specIa! DIgnatch 70 The star.


PARIS, July 24.--FTghting for her
title, the Duchess Of Manchester, the
former Helen Zimmerman. daughter
of the late Cincinnati brewer, refused
to accept the Jurisdiction of the
French courts when the Duke of
Manchester filed suit for divorce at
Nice in May, 1926.
AS recognition is necessary by both
parties, according TO French law, the
duke has withdrawn his proceedings,
but it is understood he intends to file
suit in England. provided the new
bill forbidding publication of details
OF divorce cases there Is passed.
The duchess lives in Paris most of
the time with her three grown.up
children and had no difficulty in prov
Ing France is her legal domicile. 1t
is said that the duke wishes to marry
another woman but shl-inks from the
publicity of divorce proceedings in
the English courts. He and the
duchess have lived apart for 10 years.
The duchess is determined to des
fend her right to the title, which, in
the event of the dukes remarriage,
would belong exclusively 70 the sec
ond wife, according to English law.
Although the duke claimed deser-
ton in the French court, it is believed
England. However, according to his
lawyer, Lawrence b. Delaney, the
duke has reserved the right to bring
suit again in France.

GENERAL RAISES ROSES.
Chief of German Cavalry at Marine,
Now 80, Turns Gardener.

BERLIN, July "a CP.-The one
former German Army officer who most
nearly approaches to having turned
his sword into plowshare is Gen.
Alexander Won Kluck, who directed
the first German cavalry operations in
the battle of the Marine.
Passersby going to work in the
morning never fail to see the 80-year-
old veteran at work in his rose garden
in the Summer colony of the Gruen-
wald on the outskirts Of Berlin. He
rises at $50, puts on an old suit of
clothes and occupies himself with rose
hedges with boyish enthusiasm until
at 10 o'clock.

from New York to Chicago, a journey
between the two requires four days of

In the splendors of awakening
life as new day dawns-or is
creeping back into the deep shad.
owed corridors of night, most Of
us get about as close as possible to
the glory Of the geds in the highest.
Edward Grieg, poet and dreamer OF
the Norwegian hills and fiords, felt
that way about It. He sat for hours
and days and weeks at the turn of
the road before his home and
watched the world pass by with the
nvid panorama Of earth and sea
and sky and men and things. And
then he set lit all to music-the
music Of the dawn and of the night
fall and OF the march of human
events as he saw and felt them. Il
was this music that the Vikings
brought into the homes of radio
listeners last night through the
WEAF chain-and with 1t touched
the high spot of the evening as well
as giving mu.iic lovers more Of the
infinite variety OF Grieg in an I'M
derstandable way than one thought
could possibly be crowded in fleet
ing half hour.
One may have his own opinion
about the courage of musical gentle
men endeavoring to c0nfine the
brilliant lights and deepening shad-
oWs Of Grieg within the two-color
medium OF a string and piano trio.
But Whistler painted in TWO colors
