GLARING HEADLIGHTS

Driving an automobile at night has
brought military term into modern
use, known as range estimation. The
laXness in regard to the proper adj
justment of automobile headlights
makes it necessary when driving to
pass at night number of binding
flashes which more than half the time
make it totally impossible for driver
to see where he is going, He just
gives the other fellow portion of the
road and trusts to luck that it is suf-
ficient. The other fellow does the same.
He does what is known in military
life as range estimation.
Never having obtained complete ac-
curacy in this department in the army,
what chance has a mere automobile
driver in making a hasty judgment
of distance? 1t is very dangerous, t.
say the least.
The State board of motor vehicle
headlight inspection, which is directed
to enforce the law will direct the State
motorcycle deputy to warn and then
enforce compliance with the required
provisions that all headlights should
be properly adjusted.
A synopsis Of the requirements of
the State law with regard to proper
headlights on motor vehicles is printed
in The Republican today, together
with a description Of the method by
which each owner can find out for
himself whether or not his lamps and
lenses are properly adjusted and meet
the laws requirements. If they are
not, they should be corrected for it is
understood on good authority that the
requirements of the law will hereafter
be enforced
The law makes it a misdemeanor to
carry poorly adjusted lights and the
offender may be subject to a fine of
$4,000.
AS an old proverb goes: Extern
mate two of the feathered flock with
one stone" Fix your headlights.
Save yourself from arrest and the
other fellow the uncertainty of trust
ing to luck.

GAMBLERS AID
CHICAGO CRIME
Rule of Underworld and Rise
of It's OverlOrds Played
in Report

Chicago, June 7.-(F-Two new
chapters Of sensational report on
Chicago crime were made public
today by the Illinois Association for
Criminal Justice. They charged the
growth of a gambling syndicate
which at one time reached into many
other cities; and recitel in detail,
going back to the early 19O0's, 1.-The
rule of the underworld and the rise
of it's overlords."
The associations survey, which
has been financed in part by the
Carnegie Foundation, points to three
major conclusions at the end of this
rapid survey of organized gamb-
ling"
"The first fact" the report said,
ais the continuity and persistency
Of a form of social life organized
around personalities who play an
important role. because the relation
ships in the underworld of gambling,
vice and crime are personal and
feudal, rather than formal and insti-
tutional.
Politics Plays Part
1.-THE second fact is that every
change in political administration
(from 1907 to date) effected a
change often amounting to revolu-
ton in the existing order in the
gambling world.
"The third fact is that gambling,
in resisting attacks of reformers
and in meeting new situations Great
ed by changes in administration
seems to have become more solidi.
fled in organization, and more flex'
ible in adaptations to new situations
and more concealed in its operations
In other words, it is the ineffective
efforts of the community to defend
itself against vice and gambling
that gives it it's organized charac'
ter.
"Practically, reform in the past
has amounted to little more than :
gesture. New tactics need to bt
worked out in order to take into &C
count the complexity Of the stu
ation."
Gambling King Named
The survey set forth that the com
plete life history of one man, were
it known in detail, "would disclose
practically all there is to know about
syndicate gambling as a phase O
organized crime in the last quarter
century" That man, said the re
port, is Mont Tennes, "avowedly ;

LIGHT COST GUT
BY PEPCO

Reduction OF the cost OF electric
current authorized recently by the
public Utilities Commission and
made effective yesterday by the
Potomac Electric Power Company
means a saving of $1S3,71e.27 to
the S,45e consumers. a survey or
the situation revealed.
It also REPRESENTS a reduction OF
$3.50 1856 In the public light ana
power bill.
The amount of the reduction from
81 cents to and 80 cents per
kilowatt hour was set by virtue Of
q compromises agreement between
the Pepco and the commission in
1924, at which time 1t was decided
that one-half of the company's
earnings in excess of rs per cent
would be applied to rate reduction.
The other half to be retained by
the company, which last year earned
$675,791.32.
An announcement Of a flat re-
duction of per cent in the street
lighting bill will mean saving of
$9,156.11 to the District.
The company also agreed to ex-
tend the period from 10 to is days
In which the bill must be paid
before q penalty IL charged. Last
year consumers paid over $4,000
In penalties. and the company
estimates that the extension OF the
penalty period will mean q loss Of
so per cent Of the penalty payers.

A SUGGESTION

With reference to National Music Week
beginning Sunday May 9th we find that
some activity is centering on observance
of this week ny special musical programs,
etc. This is of course very commendable
and perfectly IN order, but if National
Music Week is to fill its intended purpose
isn't this the proper time to see to it that
the interest now aroused is kept up after
the week has closed? We are crowding
into this week all manner of musical
effort, enough to suffice for a year if it

Music Week.
BY WILFRED JAMES.

Next week beginning Sunday May
9th and ending May 18th will be ceIe-
brated as Music Week. All over the
United States and almost over all parts
of the world, tina. week will be known
as National Music Week. In America,
schools, ch1rches, cIuOs. hotels, theatres,
lodges, etc viii observe Music Week.
Great musical concerts will be held dur
ing this time,
Music is not young. 1t is old; but
modern music is young. In the course
of time man thought of having a week
dedicated to Music; just the SAM as they
have days dedicated to persons as Wash
ington, Lincoln, Roosevelt, etc Man
lOnged for a week at least for Music
alone, and now we have MUSIC WEEK.
In the Junior High School through the
efforts of the Music Teacher, we are
practicing songs. Besides, there are
posters being made, pertaining to Music
Week. These are done by the pupils
under the supervision OF our Manual
Training Teacher. There are also essays
being written as part of the En- lish
work.
Let US people of St. Croix do our share
in helping to dedicate that week to anu
sic Even if our concerts are not as
great as those in Europe and America,
yet still. | think. that they Wi satisfy
our people of St. CrOix, Even in the
country parts of St. CrOix, let them
too have music to r2sOund throughout
the island.
And so we the Junior High School pu-
pills look forward to Music Week as one
of Joy and eXuitatl0n.
