MAY FLOOD OUR R K

Alien industry, armed with a deadly weapon Of
cheapness, is already beginning to make serious
inroads on American markets, despite the pre-
sent tariff, according to VIII R.. Wood, represen-
tative in congress from Indiana, in an article in
the current issue of the National Republic.
"Our tariff rates. Mr.. Wood says, fare not
what they seem because they are based upon
valuations fixed abroad by foreign producers
rather than upon the sale prices of these imports
at our ports. For instance, a so per cent ad
valorem rate on a given article at its European
cost may mean only a 6 per cent tariff on the
price at which it is bought by an American job
Der from the importer, as against a difference
in wage scales of from so to 500 per cent. The
American consumer reaps little or none of the
benefits from the low purchase price of this COM
modify abroad. 1t is sold in the United States
lust enough below the price which must be. charg-
ed by an American industry paying the American
wage scale and American raw material prices, to
take the market,
GAS our imports increase, our exports must to
an increasing extent slow down. The large scale
foreign production encouraged by American and
foreign investment in low wage markets is more
and more meeting the demands of foreign mar
kets. Instead of our dumping surplus prOduc-
ton abroad, the alien producer is beginning to
dump his surplus production here.
"Now what does this mean? The displacement
of American by foreign production simply means
the displacement of American by foreign employ
ment. It means the stopping of American pay
envelopes in favor of foreign pay envelopes. It
means that we must shut up shop in industry OF
scale our wages, and therefore, our living stand
ards, and therefore, our consuming capacity, to
the foreign level. This process has already
started.
"What is the inevitable finish, unless this pro
cess is halted? Disaster. And such disaster as
this country has never before dreamed of, despite
our several past periods of industrial paralysis
due to this very condition of displacement OF
domestic by foreign production. Our presen
personal credit situation has developed on the
basis of high wage scale production and STEADY
employment. Halt this, and our prosperity viii
collapse like a house of cards.
Prosperity is an endless chain which passe
from consumer to producer and producer to con
sumner. Break one link in that chain and all tn,
wheels cease turning. Create a condition in in
dustrial America where the worker cannot NEE
the payments on his house, his motor car, hi
radio land the other comforts and luxuries know
only in great quantity in the United States, an
we shall have an industrial, a political and
social crisis more serious than has ever befor
been confronted in our country"

Any treatment of crime to be ef--
f%ective, must consider the character
of the average criminal, the cause Of
his offense, and the purpose Of his
crime. If the average criminal IS
of low mentality and an unskillel
worker, and if the purpose of his
crime was to get money without
wOrking,-the real answer to our
~penitentiary problem lies in the word
work.
Teach men to work before they be-
come criminals; and teach criminals
to work so that they may become
good men.

The next time you see a rogue's
gallery look it over long enough TO
notice the crimes CT which the rogues
were convicted.
The state of Illinois recently pub
lished an analysis of the crimes COM
mitted by convicts in the state peni-
Tertiary at Joliet. Seventy-five per
cent of them were property crimes,
Is per cent were crimes against the
persons Of others.
An analysis made in England and
Wales divides the percentages as fol-
lows: Crimes of greed, Is per cent;
crimes Of malice, IS per cent; crimes
of lust, 10 per cent. T."
These crimes do not form distinct
classes. One crime is usually com
nected with another, and often men
who start to steal end by killing.
Fights that end in murder often
begin by quarrels over property; and
the Staying of policemen usually has
its beginning in an attempted theft.
Thus while the sentence may be
for murder and be called a crime
against the person of another, the
original offense was a crime against
property.
Grimes against persons have de-
creased for fifty years, says the Brit
fish report, while crimes against prop
erty have increased.
! The desire to get money without
earning it is overwhelmingly the
greatest cause of crime, as it is the
cause of political corruption and the
cause of war. The unearned dollar
is the foe Of law-Observance, gooC
government, and peace. The desire
for it is the chief source of crime
When we learn this, we will stop as
Stunning that all criminals are neces
sarily malicious and full of hate; ant
this knowledge may help in our treat
ment Of crime.
Fewer crimes are committed b!
women than by men. The percen
tage of women offenders to the tota
is in some countries as low as three
in some as high as 25.
This is partly due to the superior
ity Of women to men morally, an

NEW YORK, June 13.-Mrs.
Evangeline Lodge Lindbergh gave
two interviews" within fifteen min
utes today.
Newspaper men surrounded her
before she went to an appointment
and pressed her for a statement.
"I don't know what to say" she
told them. Then she was prevailed
upon to receive the press once more.
"It's wonderful" she said. Il en-
joyed Washington tremendously. I
do not know what my plans in New
York are to be-"
She then withdrew.
She came into the city In a pri-
vate car, attached to Pennsylvania
train. To avoid the crowds at the
station, the car was slipped into the
station on an out of the way track.
She was met at the station by
Maj. William S. Deegan, who ac-
companied her to the home of Mr..

Major Dargue Urges That
Indianapolis Awaken to
Its Opportunity.
IDEAL LANDING POINT
Community Interest Need
Pointed Out; Amazed at
'BaCkWardneSS.'

Concerted effort toward establish
ment of a modern flying field is a
dire need of Indianapolis, Maj.
Herbert A. Dargue. Pan-American
fight commander, asserted today.
Dargue, touring the country to
bring before the people the spirit
of friendliness that exists between
the Latin American countries and
the United States, expressed
surprise that there has been no
community or administration work
toward a flying field here.
"It's time the city awakened" he
said. IF Indianapolis doesn't get
busy it will find itself being passed
up by all airplanes as they cross
the country"
Deserve Commendation
"It was almost astounding to me
that the flying field has been built
here by private enterprise, and the
group of men who have taken 1t
on themselves to do the work, de-
serve commendation.
"But what aviation needs at pres
ent is community interest and it
doesn't seem to exist here. There
isn't better situated city in the
country for aviation. This fiat, level
ground for landing is the delight of
all pilots.
"It's entirely up to this city what
it's aviation future will be. 1t has
the natural advantages, but it needs
backing by the people and the city
administration"
.+- Overcome Handicaps
Dargue referred to the obstacles
which Pittsburgh has overcome to
establish landing field Of note.
"They are handicapped by the hills"
he said, "yet they have gone ahead
with their work"
He pointed out that Bait more has
sold bonds worth 81 100000 to fur
ther aviation. Camden, N. j., has
appropriated a like amount" he
said, land Buffalo, N. Y, has de-
voted $75O,O00 toward the work.
"a landing field can't be expected
to pay at first" he said. "You can't
go to some resort and start hotel
and make it pay the first year.
People have to learn about you. The
same applies in flying.
''It must be learned that a city
has good aviation accommodations.
Then the fields, by charging for ac-
commodatfons, will begin to pay ex-
penses. That has been the case in
Buffalo and it will apply every
where.
7 Speaks Before Club
Dargue spoke before the Service
Club at the Lincoln Hotel, at noon,
telling of the relations established
in the Latin-American countries by
the goodwill fight.
He flew from Evansville, Sunday.
He was to leave this afternoon for
Muncie and will arrive in Ft. Wayne
this evening.
He is plotting the ship he used IN
the n-American flight, an am
phibian, equipped with pontoons for
water landing.
One of the best known aviators in
the country. Dargue has been, flying
since 1913. He was graduated from
West Point in 1911. He has had
only two crashes, one in the Philip
pines in 1915, and one in Mexico,
a forced landing, while on the 1916
American entrance.

and England, he has returned to us
today, and 1t is my honor and
privilege to present to your honor
the man who has won the acclama-
ton of the world-Col. Charles A.

Lindbergh was read a scroll of
welcome by Hector Fuller. the off,
cial welcome of the city. The scroll
set forth Lindberghs achievements
and praised his diplomacy and tact.
Mayor Walker then was present.
ed and made a warm speech of well
come. He referred to Lindberghs
use of Eve" in speaking Of himself
and his plane.
Walker Gives Medal
THAT pronoun perhaps is the
only word that would have suited
your accomplishment" Walker said.
Every American heart from the
Atlantic to the Pacific was beating
for you.
'The we gave added significance
to the greatest word in any Ian
guage-mother"
After Mayor Walkers address, he
pinned upon Lindbergh the medal
of the city of New York.
Mrs. Lindbergh was presented and
was cheered to the echo.
When the cheering died away,
Lindbergh came forward to speak.
There was another ovation.
Lindbergh Speaks
Lindbergh said:
while 1 was preparing to leave
New York I was warned that if we
landed at LIE Bourget we might re-
ceive a rather demonstrative recep-
ton. After half an hour at LIE
Borget I didn't believe that any
one in New York had the slightest
notion of what we did receive. Again
at Brussels and at London.
"At London 1900 Of the pride of
Scotland Yard were lost in the
crowd at Croydon as though they
had been dropped in the middle of
the ocean. With the exception of
few around the car and the plane,
I never saw more than two at any
one time.
"At Washington received mar
velous reception, but in New York
I believe that all four put together
would be in just about the position
of those London Bobbies."
