create a field for mechanics and
workmen by the million.
Had it not been for this industry
conditions would have been more
acute. Almost any man nowadays
can tinker with an ignition system as
most auto owners have learned to
their sorrow. the auto industry, par
ticularly the garages are literally
overlooking with "mechanics" who
should be operating a more simple
co%ntrivance than an ignition system.
Yet because the services of men
can be purchased cheaply in this
field a young man is taken in BY a
garage owner and in five minutes is
pronounced a ''mechanician." He is
set at work to tune someone's jitney.
He does tune it like the average man
would tune a piano.
What is. needed in this field is a
standard system of training before a
receives his diploma as a mechan-
ician.

TIGHE SAYS:
No Single Cause.
By NJ. +. TIGHE
President, Amalgamated Association
of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers.

There are so many causes to which
the apparent present increase of crime
can be attributed, that it would tax
the infinite mind of mar to place the
entire responsibility on any one par
ticular cause. Here are some causes,
as | see them:
The abandonment of old-time moral
and humane influences, which is sup
posedly caused by the World War, in
which the sacrifice of human life be-
came a mere pastime.
The inordinate desire on the part
of many to indulge in what to them
was pleasure, without restriction of
any kind, and at the expense of the
community, socially, morally and eco
nomically.
The laxity of the home circle, both
in practice and preeept, on matters
that vitality impress and mold the
minds and actions of the young.
The constantly changing conditions
in all lines of modern environment,
coupled with the ever-increasing and
over-crowding population Of our mod
ern cities.
The passing of sumptuary laws,
which take away certain rights from.
supposedly free people, which rights
have been a heritage handed down to
them, and whose taking away has
aroused a rebellious and law-defying
spirit in those who feel that their
have been infringed on. This
spirit naturally lessons the respect for
all other laws.

EMERSON SAYS:
Dry Act to Blame.
BY JOHN EMMERSON
President, Actors Equity Association.

1t is my firm belief that one of the
largest, if not the very largest, cause
Of the pfesent-day increase in crime
in America is prohibition.
| DO not say this lightly, but with
entire conviction. The fanatic ele-
ment in the Nation, who put over
prohibition, base their arguments on
a fallacy, which is that alcohol is per
Sc. a poison. In millions of cases,
alcohol is a necessity to physical we'll
being, and the denial of it to the
great majority of people who need it
causes a nervous reaction, which in
eyitably leads to some form of ex-
preston, usually an outburst along
some line which We commonly call
criminal"
| am not, as many are, hopeless re-
garding a solution of this problem, as
the 18th amendment to the Constitu-
ton provides that mo citizen shall en-
gage in the manufacture or sale OF
alcoholic beverages" but it does not
forbid the Government itself to do so,
and it seems to me a solution to the
problem is for the Government to take
the liquor industry and administer it,
somewhat as is being done in Canada.
To me, the wave of crime which has
recently swept over the country is in
timately connected with the wave of
fanaticism which has scourged us for
the last few years, and | think the
obliteration of one will cause the
other, very largely, to disappear.

young men do not marry. The an
swer is obvious. Women have usurped
men to such an extent that soon they
will have to be washing dishes, scrub
bling and sweeping the house, while the
women go out to earn the livelihood.

Ordinarily she is a good economist,
but certainly she will find it dull bust
ness trying to make a home look at
tractive on the average wage paid to
her. If she is going to make the
living she must have increased wages.
Right here is the solution of this
phase Of the unemployment problem
among men. The wage scale of women
must be placed on a par with that of
men, so that they will not be working
at % per cent less than men can work
for. When this stage is reached in
dustries will employ men instead of
women, and man will come back to his
own.

Crime: Why! Is There a Cure?
STRIKING REPLIES by LABOR MEN
National Inquiry Brings Flood of Letters Which
Will Be Published Week by Week Throughout Nation.

THE number and the variety of opinions expressed by
L labor men in commenting on the crime situation, at
the request of this newspaper, in association with Inter
national Labor News Service and its associated newspa-
pers, show that the prevalence Of crime is stirring deep
and widespread interest.
Labor men, who are in closer touch with the great
masses of the people than are most so-called "crime ex.
perts," are observing the crime situation, watching its
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.
Here are two more interesting responses from men at
the head of international unions. There will be more next
week.

Another reason for the unemploy-
ment situation among men is the COM
ing out OF women into business, pro-
iesslonal, Office and industrial life.
women are hired by industries at
- to $40 a week by the thousands.
They are doing work formerly done by
men, They are doing it cheaper than
men can possibly do it, yet people are
wondering why a man cannot support
a family and they are wondering why

Crime increases. Puzzlement about

crime commission sits. That's about
all it can do. If it gets up and walks
around it will get no further. 1t sits
and sends out inquiries and cogitates.

being enacted. The great god, Belt
Enacted, issues forth new commands
each day. In new ways it commands,

One Of the causes Of increasing
crime is the increasing number Of laws
to be violated. Trade union leaders
throughout the country are e%ontribut-
ing their thought and observation to
the discussion of crime and some Of
the wisest expressions in the whole
discussion have come from that SURGE.
But despite the great range Of
thought expressed, IT is generally for
gotten that changing mode of living,
with changing law and a growing
bulk of criminal law, inevitably
creates new and increasing crime.
Many acts which formerly were
lawful are now unlawful. Many per-
sons continue to do what once was
lawful and in consequence now are
criminals.

When there were no automobiles no
one stole automobiles. Today "A great
many automobiles are stolen.
Before the prohibition act went into
effect it was not a crime to drink
alcoholic liquor purchased openly, and
it could be consumed at a place of
the consumers " selection, except
where State laws already had inter
fered. Today a great many persons
do that which formerly was lawful ana
as a consequence become criminals.
The range of f]elonies is greater
than ever before and is growing great
er. But the number of misdemeanors
is increasing at a rate that is appall-
ing. These numbers increase each
year. As laws creating misdemeanors
increase, so will the number of violat-
increase.
What is to be done? Where is the
Solomon to answer the inquiry?

Comment and Criticism

Crime, like almose everything else,
took an upward jump the last year
and the number Of prisoners crowded

nal limits.
What to do about increasing crime
is a growing problem-and what 70
do With the increasing number q
criminals is just a. much Of d source
Of annoyance.

to be. Prisoners, IL many cases, are
compelled to sleep ~ Easements.

more federal prisoners than on the

P. N. 9 SHOWN IN A
SPECTACULAR MELODRAMA

The magnificent drama and epochal
triumph Of the famous P. N. 9 in it's
hop to Hawaii has been imortalized
by Emory Jonson in his latest and
most spectacular melodrama, "The
Nonstop Flight, which comes to the
Weir theater Friday and Saturday.
Nothing which the genius of this
reat young producer-director has ever
touched has proved such a rich source
of entertainment as this. Emile
Johnson, who wrote the story, has
woven around the exploits Of the gal
liant navy crew a remarkable tale Of
glorious Adventure. A lovely ro-
nance, and someeof the best comedy
seen in long time, have been in
jected into The story, and the P. N. 8
itself is seen in the picture. Further-
more, Director yonson has received
the support Of the whole Pacific Bat
tie fleet Of the U. s. Navy, and he
has made the most of this tremendous
material il the biggest picture he has
ever turned out for F. B. o. 1.-THE
Third Alarm" an the Name Of the
Law "The Last Edition." and all his
previous successes take second place
after this production, in the opinion of
qualified critics who have seen the
picture.

FOR ELECTION
. CON EST seen
Senate Committee Expected
to Dismiss Bursum
Case.

BIZ Times Special
WASHINGTON, April 2.-One of
the three election contests before the
Senate Is abou ito come to a quiet
conclusion.
Within the next few weeks, in all
probability, the Senate Elections
Committee will dismiss the contest
of Holm o. Bursum against Senator
Sam G, Bratton, Democrat, of New
Mexico.
When Bursum, the father of much
pension legislation, was defeated in
1924, G. A. r. veterans raised a fund
of nearly $40, 900 for him to contest
the election. He filed lengthy charges
of alleged Irregularities in every
county of New Mexico.
However, his case was weakened
by the fact that a similar contest by
a Republican, against the Democrat
who was elected Governor, failed to
unseat the Governor, and actually
added to his majority.
The Senate Elections Committee
examined Bursum's complaint and
Bratton's answer last December and
let the matter rest

Massachusetts has q governor who places economy above common sense. Governor Fuller is one of those hard d-headed economists who study the subject so thoroughly that he is bent double from look ing backward.

 The governor continued his streak Of economy thusly: He ve- tocd bill to pay the widow of messenger in the legislature the remainder of the mans salary for il year. The state senate overrode inc governors veto by the tune of 25 10 q. The governor had vetoed q similar measure soon after talk ing office. And the governor like wise vetoed two pension bills for veteran cmploycs of the Cambridge public library.
