Washington in the Platform OF
the Republican Party
The Democratic Party at Houston Might Profit by More
Liberal Treatment of Federal City

ENAToR SHOOTS Republican party platform adopted at
Kansas City promises nothing constructive for this city or
its people,
The nominee the party for President is fortunately de-
voted to the interests of this Federal City and most kn
disposed to its more than half million citizens.
The City platform coends what Congress mas done
to make the civil attractive as to wages ana
retirement privileges but stops there.
Elsewhere under the heading OF Honesty IN government
the platform declares e Government today is made OF
thousands of conscientious earnest self sacrificing and
women whose single thought is service to the nation
true and yet the valuable services OF these
recognized in compensation otherwise Loyal
workers frequently beraed in Congress and great states
net BY getting rid Of highly paid workers who do not ap
preciate the high" salaries they are being paid
The Kansas City convention ignored expected the
pleas Washington delegates that the platform favor
suffrage here in the form Of national representation
Had Senator Smoot desired insisted the platform would
have contained this pledge to principle that Washington
people feel in keeping with the principles OF democratic
form Of government.
District delegates accepted BY the Houston convention will
make the effort Kansas City to have the Democratic
party pledge itself suffrage here they succeed in getting
such pledge in the Democratic platform they will have
achieved than other delegates have in the past
The Democratic party could wisely and profitaby make this
pledge and honoraby and honestly try to put it into effect by
legislation
There is nothing just or square in kicking the District
around in national party conventions and in Congress
ton in party conventions but Washington truly like the
proVerbial hound dog
Our main hope that day will get President not
deeply absorbed in national problems to overlook the
pleas Of Washington people for aid in obtaining justice
from Congress.
The cause suffrage here may be kicked around for
time but righteous will eventually have powerful
advocates Congress and the White House and will triumph

SECRETS OF
HEALTH
-Bv Dr. g. "A. n. Reed

WE sometimes say that punish
w men should be given up as
far as possible and that some
thing else should be substituted.
We often see that the delinquent
Il not simply deliberate evil doer,
but is to some extent victim of
circumstances. When we say
these things people are rather in.
clined to jump to the immediate
conclusion that there Is some SIM
pie explanation OF delinquency and
crime.
Those who simply take a gen.
eral view of the problem say that
If You examine a few cases you
will soon see that practically all
of them are poverty-stricken or
mentally defective. 1t has often
been said by those who ought to
know better that mental deficiency
is the explanation OF all crime.
Both these factors. of course, enter
into crime, but they do not occur
in the majority of cases. 1t is not
the poorest of all who find their
would not deny that poverty is a
factor in a considerable proper
ton of cases. There are many of
the poor of whom anyone, who
knows them at all, can say with
absolute confidence that they will
never be found in a criminal court.
Mental deficiency is, of course,
a complete explanation OF crime in
some cases, but, we are assured
by Potts, not more than $3.50 of
those who come before the courts
are mentally deficient. Delin-
uuency and crime, therefore. cam
not be dealt with by segregating
all mental detectives. 1t is true.
they ought to be segregated, but
for quite other reasons.
How are we to know what to
do?
We cannot tell the cause of de-
Hnquency unless we examine both
the guilty person and his environ
ment, using environment in the
very largest sense of the word.
TO mean not only the home but
also the kind of house, the kind
of street, the opportunities his

out of doors, the school he goes
to, the neighborhood he lives in,
and so on.
To examine all cases is coun-
sci of perfection and, possibly, not
at present practicable. But il we
are not going to examine any de-
linquent until we can examine all
of them we shall never start at
all. The expenses of examining a
certain proportion is not eXces-
sive but proper examination in
every case is bound to be expen-
sive. 1t is also absolutely UNI
necessary to examine all indiVid-
ually. A considerable number can
be dealt with more or less ade-
quately by magistrates WHO eXer-
else their commonSense.
A certain number, however,
should be thoroughly examined,
and If that is done the magistrates
can increase their knowiedSe of
what is required. Thus hey will
gradually be able to deal with
them in an understanding way in
stead OF the rule of thumb meas
ures of the past.

young males! And il allowed to

SO it follows that a large dad

little girl with curls exactly as he
should treat a little boy with
freckles. He should poke her in
the ribs, tell her about butterflies,
take her to baseball games, teach
her her prayers, drag her around
in her coveralls, let her look at
the insides of automobiles, clocks,
frogs and other interesting auto
mata, teach her to box and
whistle through her teeth, give
her swimming lessons, take her
fishing and make her bait her
own hook, raZz her when she
cries, give her the dog eye when
she tattles. cuddle her when she's
cuddley, bawl her out when she
lies and treat her like a reg lar

For that is what she was In

WEST END SCHOOL
 SOLD FOR Sl2,500
Board Votes. to Dispose Of
 Lincoln Street Structure

Although there was only one bid, the school board ut special meet ing yesterday afternoon. voted to sell the old Lincoln street school and property for S1o,500 to Mario Cianci < Sen, building contra ctors. The sale was made subject to the dp- proval of the common council.
 The new owner plans to construct Il three story apartment block which will contain 12 apartments. It will resemble apartments which now stand at the corner of Whiting and Maple streets.
 With the sale of this property, the school board cuts from the city's real estate holdings one of its oldest pieces of property. The school was built many years ago and it is num- bered among the small group Of buildings which were in existence when this city was d small town.
 It outlived its usefulness and its pupils are now being taken care of by the Lincoln school on Steele street.
 Several months ago the school board voted 10 allow it's special com- mittee on school building disposal permission to dispose of the old Lin- coln school and the Bassette resi- dence on Bassett street. The last named building was sold and at next meeting of the common council it is probable that approval Of the Lin- coin street school transa ction will be given. The property is approxi- mately l3S by 1G0 feet.
