Instead of a growing and menacing

AnSwer-If we attribute all creation

Which of the following sources con
stitute the real cause Of crime?
One. corrupt courts: .. political pull:
3. unscrupulOus lawyers. or 4, reli
Eious laXity.
Answer-The last three of these
sources either cause or foster crime.
Its chief causes are congenital def
ciencies in the criminal. the general
religious laXity which conduces to the
breakdown Of home discipline and
moral education. and the influx here
of immigrants of a low or degenerate
type.
I should not include corrupt courts
as serious oHuse of crime.
The courts should be strengthened
by the removal of hampering legal
restrictions and by imposing proper
restraints upon Fictitious or unscru-
pulous lawyers.
Great Britain's criminal justice is
greatly advantaged by the wide range
Of discretionary authority she grants
her judges in criminal procedure.
This procedure presents in some as
poets a striking contrast to the long
delayed and variable courses of our
criminal courts, in which the Judge is
sometimes little more than an umpire
between contending attorneys, who
take numerous exceptions and delay
or thw3rt the course of Justice
Other incipient or active causes of
crime are the underpolicing of manv
cities and rural areas, the maladmin-

Love Signs in Chin.

In a broad, square chin, whether
on a man or a woman, you will find
a violent love nature. or at least a

bordering on worship, which. In ex.
cess. leads to love-sickness and oft.
times to insanity.

tion. some Of which may be easily
judged, but the most dependable signs
are found in the chin. Chins are
classified as pointed, or narrow, in.
dented, square, broad and round.
Each of these forms has a distinct

Of the smaller nations. such as Jugo-

1T is in the facts and figures just
above disclosed that the greatest

ness men seeking trade abroad. They
indicate that a battle for world busi-
ness Is on and on globe-girdling

says, nothing but amiable and agree

merce. There is. on the contrary,
every reason for continued alert
watchfulness on the part Of American
manufacturers and merchants. If
there's one weakness in our position.
it lies in the failure of our higher
business executives to follow the for
eign situation with care and concen-
tration. Our great business rivals in
Europe, in South America and in Asia
are not committing that oversight.
Our people cannot afford to commit
it. The race in world trade, today
more than ever, Is to the quick, the

tling methods here at home will keep

In addition to it's value to the Gov
ernment, the system has been of
much assistance to civil authorities
in Identifying bodies, in establishing
the identity of individuals accused Of
crimes and in other ways. The ad-
jutant general cites one instance of
the efficacy of the departments sys-
tenn. Seven years after his disap-
pearance in 1917, man was legally
declared dead. and his family claimed
his life insurance. Later a deserted
from the Army. who surrendered to
military control in June, 1926, was
identified by fingerprints as the man
in question, thus upsetting the action
of the court in declaring him dead and
saving the insurance company the
payment of an invalid claim.

Ten thousand copies of a 41ax6-

ed by the publicity division for special
distribution at the international Grain
and Hay Show. This Exposition is
held in Chicago, beginning next Satur-

The pamphlet contains short, pithy
sentences descriptive Of the history,
geography, agriculture, mining, oil
and recreational interests.
For twelve successive weeks publ
cation of some of the Facts About
Montana" will appear in the columns
of the News.
History
The first white men to set foot upon
Montana soil were the Verendryes. On
New Years day in 1743, in what is
now southeastern Montana, they first
sighted the. Rocky Mountains.
Starting from St. Louis, Lewis and
Clark crossed Montana in 1905 and at
cost of $1,000, not only acquired
knowledge of the Louisiana purchase
but laid the foundation to the Ameri-
can claim to the Oregon country.
Both the Verendryes and Lewis and
Clark were guided by Indians and
Montana has more Indians today
(10,956) than fifty years ago (10,434)
when Custer made his last stand.
Following a period of fur trading
gold was discovered in 1861. In three
years Montana was territory and in
% years a state. In round figures the
state to date has yielded almost ST.
500,000,000 in mineral wealth.
Montana is a young state. Our first
telegraph operator was busy at his
key when Alexander Bell held his first
telephone conversation fifty years ago,
In the great grain belt of eastern
Montana there was then only one
farmer.
Wild beasts roamed the plains. The
Indian in unfetted freedom built his
wigwam. The first man to- grow spuds
in the state is hale andahearty today,
while the average production of pota-
toes for the(last five years has been
100000 bushels annually, a quantity
sufficient to supply the needs of l.
100000 people.
The population fifty years ago was
only 10000. Today it is only $4,000,

the nations totab while the state con-
tains ,14e, 1s1 square miles, five percent
