BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, September 30.-Prof. A. A.
Nicholson of the University of Chicago,
genius of science, Nobel prize winner
and the man who measured the speed
of light. lay today near death.
His physicians held only slight hope
for the man whose II years made the
dangers of pneumonia the more pro-
nounced. A minor operation was per-
formed three weeks ago, and Prof.
Nicholson was believed recovering until
pneumonia developed.
Prof. Nicholson, despite his grave
condition, is leaving his physicians to
do the worrying" said DR.. Herman l..
Kretschmer. His fighting spirit and
the will to surmount all difficulties may
win the battle for him."

NEW HOUSES FOR OLD

1t may be early for the familiar
slogan: Clean up, paint up"
which is the battle cry of city
councils and civic improvement
leagues along about the middle of
April, but it is not too early to
be thinking about and planning for
the municipal identifying that is
to come.
Wolf Point is one of the most
bustling little cities in eastern
Montana, a regular live-wire town,
but would a stranger wandering
around the streets get the idea
that it is a prosperous town, a
town that is proud of itself and
happy to put it's best foot for
ward? A fresh coat of paint is
to a house what a new and be-
coming dress is to a woman. It
gives an air not only of beauty
but of self assurance.
A new house looks so spic and
span, so clean, and two coats of
makes one wonder sometimes
paint will make a drab, bedraggled
seeming house look like new. 1t
what Wolf Point would be like
if. by the waving of a magic wand,
it could suddenly be transformed

THEY LIKE OUR EARS

Readers of the Wolf Point Her
aid noted a new form of heading
on the front page last week. A
change of type for the papers
name adds neatness and legibility
and leaves room for a small box
in each upper corner. These boxes
announced that they We're the
ears" of the publication and
promised an especially interesting
bit each week.
The idea intrigues and it seems
likely that it may be developed
into a most successful feature.
Incidentally, the change honored
the 10th birthday of The Herald.

A NEW ENFORCEMENT PLAN

Much is heard about the crime
wave that is sweeping over the
land-a general disregard of law
and order which gives pessimis-
tic indication to many that the
country is headed for destruction
and going that way at top speed.
Various theories are put forth as
TO what has brought this about
the aftermath of the world war,
an easy-going attitude on the part
of parents with regard TO their
children's escapades. too much
liberty and too little licking, mo-
o ears, movies, lack of enforce
ment of the 18th amendment, etc,
etc. Perhaps all of these have
contributed their bit to the atti-
tude of mind which has brought
about existing conditions.
It is not our purpose to analyze
the psychological causes of this
crime wave. Let us recognize the
fact that is it a wave, and, being
such. that it swells upward to its
crest and then recedes. There
are indications on every hand that
the crest has been reached, or,
to use another smile, that the
pendulum has swung as far in n
direction as it can, and that we
may expect a measured swing in
the opposite direction. 1t has
taken nearly fifteen years to
swing out from normal and it may
take as many to swing back. The
speed with which moral or econ
omic crises in the lives of nations
are reached and passed should
not be measured in terms of years
but of generations.
The success of law enforcement
must be measured not by isolated
examples of infractions but by the
tenor of the lives of the c%itizenry
themselves. And the rank and
file of the people + for law and
order-many who have had their
fling at being skofflaws have done
so like little boys playing smart,
and haven't found it so much fun
as they expected.
One of the indications that the
pendulum is swinging back is
found in the fact that Chicago had
a riotless election the other day.
Ministers tell of increased church
attendance, and there are other
evidences of the return to nor
NAL.
With a view of putting Wolf
Point in the foremost of this re
turn to normally in the matter of
law observance, County Attorney
Foor and Mayor o. T. Stennes
have called a meeting of mayors
and peace officers to meet here
March 4. Roosevelt county has a
good record in regard to the APP
prehension Of criminals and bring
ing them to justice, but it is be-
lieved that if a cooperative work
ing plan al be agreed upon
between the various law enforce
ment agencies, that even better
results may be hoped for. 1t is
a new experiment and one which
will be watched with interest, and
it is hoped that the people of the
town and community who are for
law enforcement will attend the
meetings Monday and show by
their presence that they stand {
back of the officials in their
endeavor. {

Clauses which made a drunken
driver responsible for all injury
and death resulting from any col
lision which he might be mixed
up in, were stricken from the bill,

House Bill No. II, providing for
the ~legalizing of horse racing at
the Montana state fair, was
amended to permit 80 days racing
meets in counties of 10000 popu-
lation. This passed the House IS
to 80, and the Senate has been
hemming and having over the
matters of bringing it to a vote At
the time this is written it has not
passed. 1t is regarded as a per
nicious by those opposed
to gambling.
Senate Bill No. IS. was passed
by both houses, permitting rail
road and transportation companies

families, disabled employees and
widows and minor children of en-
ployes killed in service, to remains

men eligible for jury service was

have provided the extension Of
absent voters privileges to those
who are sick or otherwise unable
o go to the polls because of dis

Schnitzler said it was a
dangerous measure and would

Two bills we're passed by both
houses, n outlawing the Mexi-

Gated on third reading SO to 80,
