Chicago Crooks Throwing Bombs.

Gangmen are now throwing bombs
in Chicago, not at one another, but al
the residences of former public officials
identified with the cleanup campaign
OF the municipality. Early this morn
ing two explosions occurred which,
though fortunately doing little damage
and costing no lives. evidence desper-
ate endeayor by the criminal contin-
gent to check Mayor Thompson's polio ;
drive against the lawbreakers.
There is no likelihood that such
moves on the part Of the underworld
Of Chicago will lessen the enterprise
OF The municipal government. 1t is
plain that Chicago feels deeply the
stigma of being a lawless city. Its
business interests and the great body
of the population are demanding a
cleanup. II is perfectly we'll known
that the crooks and professional gum
men can be identified. The police
know who's who" in Chicago's crime
list If public opinion had its will there
would be a forced exodus of Ave or
ten thousand crooks who for one rea-
son and another have not been laid by
the heels and sent to prison or to thc
gallows
This bombing that is thus reported
may of course. be only the work OF
one person or very small group. seek
ing personal vengeance for some past
prosecution. 1t may be OF maniac in
spiratIon. but 1t certainly illustrates the
character of the gangsters who have
for several years held Chicago in their
grip--men. and women. too, OF utter
ruthlessness. boldly defiant OF law.

immunity and bringing into disrepute

sary distractions are thrown in the
way of crosstown traffic.
As far as Thirteenth street is con-
cerned It is an important artery for only
an hour in the morning and an hour In
the evening and there is no conceivable
reason for halting intersecting traffic
for twenty-four hours Of the day. With
the exception OF the boulevard and ar
terial highways which were wisely Sc
lectcd soon after the organization Of the
traffic office. this same thing applies 10
other north-and- south streets which
have been sown with stop signs. For
certain period in the morning and eve
ming they arc more frequentcd than the
cross-strcets. Stop signs do some good
there. but even then. as every motorist
knows, confusion is bred on account OF
the congestion.
Washington should have we'll plan

boulevard streets That was the purpose
of the traffic code clause which was en-
acted by Congress. Congress, however,

Pedestrian Regulation.

The revised traffic code is apparently
slated for another revision before 1t is
finally approved by the Commissioners
Although the Commissioners passed
| tavorably upon the amendments to the
code submitted by Traffic Director Har-
land. final steps for PRONUNCIATION have
not been taken. and it is broadly inti-
mated that the revised rule for pedeS-
trian control is causing delay. The Com
misSioners are said I" desire to study
the change more thoroughly before 1t
is finally accepted.
The pedestrian regulation. since 1t
MADE its first appearance in the Dis
trict. has been white elephant on the
hands of the Traffic Bureau and the
Commissioners. 1t was designed TO af-
ford a greater degree of safety for the
walkers than was possible with unregu-
lated pedestrian movement 1t has
been and is used successfully in many
other cities in the United States. and
the Washington regulation was an eX
pertinent only as far AS the National
Capital was concerned
But il has had stormy career here
and has been revised several times. In
the beginning feeble and half-hearted
Efforts were made 10 enforce II. but for
more than year il has passed into the
limbo Of forgotten things, No arrests
have been made under it and appar-
entity no one has paid the slightest at
ten'ion to it.
The Commissioners are faced now
with the question of what to do with
it, There are two alternatives: 1t
should either be wiped off the books or
enforced. The latter course is prefer
able because an unenforced regulation
is worse than useless and breeds con-
fusion.
Washington has not compiled an en-
viable record in dealing with this SUBJ
ject. II has been handled as IL 1t would
burn any one who touched it. There
appears to be no reason why the Ma
tional Capital. in common with other
cities, should not have reasonable pedes-
trian regulation. and the shilly-shallying
about the matter should be replaced by
stern measures. TO the end that Wash
!ngtonians may receive the benefit of a
regulation that has proved its worth.

Senator Curtis DRY Platform

Senator Curtis of Kansas has in his
reply TO Senator Borah's questions rel
ative to his stand as a candidate for
the presidency upon the question OF
prohibition squarely met the issue thus
raised by his Idaho colleague and has
written for himself a platform that
commands respect for its explicit dec
laration in favor OF the enforcement
of the eighteenth amendment and the
volstead act and In opposition TO any
amendment or move to repeal.
In taking this position Senator Curtis
stands four-square with his past record
on this question. He has always been
a consistent prohibitionist As he notes
in his letter TO Senator Borah. he
demonstrated in this respect while
serving as prosecuting attorney OF
Shawnee County. Kans. forty and more
years ago. All Of his public acts since
then have been in harmony with that
record. He has never compromised or
evaded the issue for political advan-
tage.
This letter TO Senator Borah serves
notice TO the country that the Curtis
candidacy for the presidential nomina-
tim Is definitely and unqualifiedly on
the dry basis II will doubtless fully
meet the views OF the Idaho questioner.
Who has heretofore taken practically
the same stand that Mr.. Curtis nov
takes.
II all the candidates, avowed and
potential. for the presidential nonina-
ton were 10 adopt the same attitude
OF entire frankness on the subject.
which undoubtedly will be one OF the
chief issues OF the coming campaign.
there would be- less confusion in the
public mind Mr.. Curtis. OF course
knows that the policy of political ex-
pediency calls for less straightfor
ward ayowal OF principle. But there
Is nothing In his career that warrants
any evasion Of responsibility or any
compromise for the sake OF political
/ advantage Whatever may be the out
come OF this exchange of notes. which
leaves Mr.. Curtis definitely in the po-
sition of hundred per cent prohibi-
ti0nlst. II rebounds 70 his credit for
oand0r and honesty,
