The World and All
FALSE HEROES

Certain decisions of the American people help to
make crime popular. One of these is that bobbed-
haired bandits are always pretty and romantic.
In the first place, there's nothing distinctive about
having ones hair bobbed, whether one is a bandit or
a lawyer. Years ago. when hair-bobbing was something
Of a novelty in some parts Of the world, a woman help
ed rob a bank or a payroll in Buffalo, and the papers
reported the affair quite fully, stressing the point
that the female thief had her hair bodied. Ever since
then it has been customary in news reports Of rob
berries in which women have taken part to refer to the
sulprit as "the pretty bobbed-haired bandit"
Now. I've seen a lot of women criminals in my news
paper experience. and | have yet to see a pretty one.
You remember Ruth Snyder, who dubbed her sleeping
husband to death with a sashweight Well, she was
about as pretty as the average mud fence in Lapland, or
wherever mud fences are the rage. But she was by far
the most comely Of all female criminals that have come
under my observation.
Crime simply doesn't make for beauty, either in men
or women. Thoughts that lead to crime are in the
mind long before the first crime is committed, AMI
the criminal. Women bandits are. without exception,
ugly, coarse, and almost always dirty.
One popular delusion that makes for announcement
Of crime Is that criminals never peach on their pals"
There is a widespread belief that there il something
noble in the determination Of bandits to die or suffer
torture on the rack rather than reveal the names of
those who robbed with them or fought against them.
Recently there was a robbery in New York in hich
a young woman took part. This gangster moli was
quoted by the papers as sayirs, when questioned, do
you think Id cell the names Of the guys that was with
me? ! amt no rat!"
But she was q rat. a. j. almost every gangster, male
and female. An hour after her arrest this heroic dame
had given the names and full descriptions of all Of her
male associates in crime. and had tried to shift all OF
the blame for the crime upon them, in hope that she
might be able TO escape some of the punishment due
her.
] have known but one robber in whom there was no
bility Of character. and he was a w~ell-bred, wcll-edu-
Gated man who had deliberately descended to baaditry
because Of some mental twist that made him think he
was getting even with the world for an injustice.
Bandits rs a class are mean, sneaky, traitorous
wretehes, always anxious to sacrifice one another for
selfish advantage.
