Among measures signed late

include drunken driving, conviction
of manslaughter resulting from
driving motor vehicle. perjury in
application for License or for con-
viction of any crime in which an
automobile was used. State motor
lists associations and the state po-
lice department backed the bill.
Approval was given the Markun
kidnapping bill increasing the penalty
for kidnapping from two to fourteen
years to life imprisonment. Three
other measures increasing penalties
for crime were signed.
One reduces from 500 to $25 the
qualifications of grand larceny and
provides sentence Of from one to

KISS FLAG, NOT
BIBLE, is PLEA
FOR INAUGURALS
Keep Religion Out of All
National Affairs, Pastor
Urges.
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
LYNN, Mass, March 14.-BelieE
that the American flag, rather than
the Bible, should be kissed by a
man who is being inaugurated as
President of the United States, was
expressed here today by the Rev,
Raymond H. Palmer, minister Of the
Lynn Unitarian church.
An article which he wrote in last
weeks issue Of his church paper,
criticising President Hoover for kiss
ing the Bible at the recent ins
augural ceremony, created nations
wide interest.
Amplifying his published state
ments, which charged that the
Presidents act was an attempt TO
connect Bible idolatry with prohibi-
ton enforcement, Mr.. Palmer de-
clared today his belief that national
symbols, and not religious symbols,
should be kissed at such national
ceremonies.
1--WE should keep everything out
of government ceremonies which
looks at all partisan TO one religion
or another" he said.
while the Bible may be sacred to
many people. it often divides us. 1T
is all right to kiss the Bible in
churches, but not in a national
ceremony where we have symbols OF
a national nature which may be
kissed without offending any partic-
ular group.
"In the article I wrote for our
church paper, 1 did not intend to
attack the Bible. Neither did In
tend to attack Mr.. Hoover, as an
individual. 1 am not out to attack
people, but to unite people"

RADICALS ACTIVE

Folks who discount the activities of radicals
among the younger generation of this country will
probably change their minds in view of the discovery
of communistic camp for children the Russian
river last week and the demonstration of young
munists against Boy Scouts the New York docks
Saturday.
It may alarm of the dscounters to learn
that the communists active in this state. The
Russian river camp is operating in full blast, accord
ing to reports the children being taught radical songs
and learning the communistc doctrines while they
enjoy the life of campers along California
stream.
These children being taught to despise the
history and traditions of the American people as we
have come to know them they would tear down the
institutions which the forefathers of this country
have given to and substitute in their stead the red
government of the Russian Soviet.
Those who staged the riot on the New York docks
and are learning the same lessons the young
sters along the Russian river in this state.
1t is somewhat significant that the young COM
munists did not show up the scene until the Boy
Scouts safely their boat bound for a Scout
conference in England. We would be willing to wager
that had the Scouts and the young radicals mixed on
the dock that of the latter would have had the
good wholesome Scout doctrine pounded into them.

HUNG JURY DISAPPOINTING

Failure of the jury in the of Sheriff Gillett
to arrive at verdict is to be regretted and is dsap
pontment to all concerned with the trial. perhaps to
than the Individual jurors, who sat
through nearly four tedious weeks of the trial. and
clmaxed it with 60 torrid hours of argument over
of evidence and exhibits.
The trial has been a heavy expense to the county
and tremendous task, especially at this period of
the year.
There is to doubt that the jurors made
every effort to arrive verdict and that failure
indicates merely differences of opinion as to the
evidence presented to the jury.
1t is only fair that there should be another trial
that another effort mas be made settle the case
definitely way the other. The prospect is not
an inviting one, but duty is not always inviting.
There has been much criticism heard of the entire
before and during the trial. The Press has re-
Trained throughout from expressing itself in any man
ner, except to publish of the progress of the
case believing that it is best to leave such matters to
the courts and those delegated to conduct the affairs
the county 1t will continue this policy until defin-
ite decision has been reached.
