THE CRIME COMMISSION

Six months have served to show President Hoover's
law enforcement body that it has tremendous task
ahead of it, in its efforts to find what can be done
to make law enforcement effective and decrease crime
The time spent thus far has seemed to convince the
commission primarily of the dearth of data crime
its and corrective measures despite our SNUG
feeling that know all about it. Too long we have
practiced the doctrine that the way treat those who
violate the law is to convict them throw them into
Jail and forget about them until they come back again.
Recent tragic outbreaks in several widely scattered
prisons of the country indicate that there something
radically wrong, not ONLY with law enforcement,
but with the corrective take to punish the
prisoner and teach him that he must obey the law.
The commission found that there is no record of the
same crime differs in the various states. What is
crime in Minnesota is not necessarily crime in Oregon
and what California considers only misdemeanor, is
high felony in other states There is data the
roads leading into the United States from Canada and
Mexico, something that is important to know if the pro-
hibtion law to be successful The commission is i'm
pressed, with the astounding extent of dsrespect
for law, but with colossal ignorance to why
people wish to violate and do violate the laws.
Better late than never may be applied to the COM
mission. Its members appear somewhat discouraged
at the magnitude Of the job confronting them This is
not strange but a start has to be made time,
it may we'll be The commission faces pie-
neerng task Pioneering in any line is often discour
aging and difficult If the commission expected their
job something that could be accomplished only to
find that will require years that only emphasizes the
need for the work they doing and the necessity for
going through with it.

READING FOR CHILDREN

Tucked away IN multitude of national weeks"
is "Childrens Book Week, which is being observed
TINS week throughout the nation with particular atten
ton being paid to it by schools and the juvenile depart
ments of public libraries.
Chlldrens Book Week has its object, helping the
child to an interesting and profitable of reading
which will be of benefit Immediately and form the
foundation for rational reading in mature days.
AS in many other of youths activities parents often
pay too little attention to what the child reads In fact
many of them very little whether not the child
reads at all. This latter condition is like setting out
tree and expecting to grow without water or care
of any kind.
Books have an important bearing on the development
of character in child If the right kind of books are
read, they will be of benefit him now and hereafter
1t the child permitted to read trashy stuff almost
as bad not encouraged to read ALL he is deprived
of one of the best means of developing his mind
Everyone has had his attention attracted at some
time other to the large number of trashy magazines
which are to be found on practically every news stand
and has expressed wonderment that many can be
sold, and what class of people read them.
The answer is to be found among those persons
whose early reading not directed along proper
channels The cheap, tawdry and sensational appeal
to Them and the fault is not wholly theirs, for as
youngsters they had to show them guide their
footsteps.
Among the multitude of duties for parents is
proper supervision the reading matter used by
their children. "Childrens Book Week"is good time
to inquire into the matter and with the aid of teacher
and librarian get the child started the right track

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE
GOBBLE UP

Uncle Wiggily had found some
thing new to amuse him and give
him adventures. 1t was the funny
little houses, made of corn stalks,
that stood in farmers field not
far from the rabbits hollow stump
bungalow. jolly little houses they
We're.
You remember, l hope, the story
l told you last night, about how I'm
cle Wiggily, hopping among the
shocks of dried corn stalks, went in
one OF the queer. little tents to keep
the snow flakes off his red neck
tie. Living in the courthouse was
family of field mice and Uncle
Wiggily got to know them quite
we'll from this adventure.
So every morning, after he had
seen to it that his bunny boys and
girls started for school, that Nurse
Jane was washing the dishes and
his wife getting on her bonnet to 90
shopping at the seven and eight cent
store, Uncle Wiggily, would hop off
to the field of queer, little corn
houses.
"I'll look in and see how my
friends the mice are getting along"
said Mr.. Longears to himself, "and
then I'll look in some of the other
corn stalk houses. Perhaps they
may have families in by this time"
If Uncle Wiggily had been bach
elor, as he used to be before he got
married and had such large fam
lily, he might have lived in one of
these corn stalk houses himself.

"Al well and happy" said Mrs.

ONE ROBBERY is PERMITTED

Mexico recently devised new penal code. Undoubt-
edly it will in for good deal of criticism especi
ally this side of the border but whether you agree
with it not you must admit that it is at the very
least, different from all other codes earth.
Most notable perhaps is the provision relating to
robbery.
This provision sets forth that person cannot be
punished for committing robbery if he prove that
he hungry and that he committed robbery
before.
That law is something like the ruling Of the old coun
try judge who declared that every dog is entitled to
at least bite II is provision that will cause many
people to ridcue Mexico a backward and unenlight
ened nation ard yet when yoI stop to think about it,
it is not altogether unprasew0rthy.
Itrccognzes in however clumsy and ineffective way,
that man commit major crime and still not be
genuine enemy TO society 1t recognizes the fact that
there awbreakers and lawbreakers; that there is
a world of difference between the professional crook
who makes robbery his profession and the desperate,
poverty crazed man who decides in his misery, that
committing robbery better than starving to death.
Of course, this law probably will work out in pecQl-
lar way 1t will be used in the defense of many first
class rascals beyond doubt Yet submit, it is not
the law of a backward nation.
Plainly, it is attempt to put little genuine hu-
manity and common into the criminal code. 1t
some of the ferocious lfeerm laws that have put
ON statute books in recent years?
If the older Republican insurgents "sons of wild
jackasses wonders just what term Senator Moses
will apply the younger rebels who would unseat hlm
and the old guard "standpatters.
