TREATY IS
ACCLAIMED IN CITY

Throughout the entire period the
popes have not left the Vatican.
Under this regime, many ineon-
yeniences and embarrassments were
felt by the papal colony because of
interferences with mail and similar
diScourtesies."
Throughout the fifty-eight-year
period, attempts often were made
to centralize power and make the
pope again temporal ruler as well
as the spiritual head of the Cathe-
lie church. Father Gavisk said.
With the signing Of the treaty.
the pope is expected to break his
voluntary imprisonment in the Vati-
can anG again walk III the streets
of Rome.
Other local Catholic churchmen
expect the church to make more
rapid strides under the new regime
than it has in the past.

BAN ASKED ON
PHONY SLEUTHS
Horse Thief Detective Act
Is Under Fire.

Senator John L. Niblack,. Indian
apolis, stated today that he had
spent four years as deputy prosecu-
tor of Marion county and never had
seen horse thief detective bring in
a horse thief or even horse.
At the senate session Monday aft
ernoon, Niblack introduced a bill
calling for repeal of the horse thief
detective act The original bill was
designed to grant police powers to
organizations of citizens to protect
them ~elveS against horse thieves.
A dead issue for many years, it
was revived during the Ku-Klux
Khan uprising, to give civil authority
to persons interested in policing their
neighbors. The organization became
the c-'-~o Of much controversy.
Senator Roscoe c. Martin, Lo-
ganSport, has introduced a measure
to extend the police powers of the
organization, now called the Ma
tionaI Detective Association, so
members may make arrests any
where in the state. At present they
are limited to the county where or
gained
Nib1ack points out that this would
give them greater powers than
sheriffs. He says they should be
abolished for their own good, citing
the instance Of pair of horse thief
detectives cruising about in Marion
county in a car seeking some one to
arrest. They were held up and their
guns, car and stars taken from
them.

N There's truth in the old say
ing Fridays child is full of woe"
according to Robert Reagan, %,
sentenced to five to twenty-one
years in prison after pleading
guilty to a filling station holdup
in which a stolen car was used.
Il was born on Friday, and the
first time I was convicted of a
crime it was on Friday. Now.

Harry A. Markey, Is, Reagan's

Reagan tried hard to take all
the blame for the holdup, but was
unable to save Marley.
MARKEY is the inventor of a.
1V1 combination lock and key
which he says is burglar proof.
He perfected it while serving a
previous term and told Kokomo
police he knows the lock is good
because it was tried out by fell
low conYictS who were experts on
locks.

Sandpapered their fingers down
to the quick and worked hours
without being able to unlock it,"
The two prisoners have been
chums since school days and
served a term in the Michigan
state prison.
A T time when 1t appeared
L n Reagan might succeed in
taking the rap leaving Marley
free, it was his plan to sell the
lock invention for $500. He in
tended to give part of the money
to Reagan and keep the rest to
start his career in matrimony.

bandits and during their trial she
became familiar figure about

Everyday Psychology
By DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.
Emotional Persistency.

Those who claim that we shall never
really know much about human nature
until we know the emotions are cor
rect. This idea has been voiced again
and again from Solomon of ancient
Jerusalem to Freud of modern Vienna.
Emotions are notorious for their
sticking qualities. One man has
quarrel with his neighbor. The
emotions then aroused may last for
years as "grudge." Or they may be
handed down from father to son.
stretching out over several generations
as family feuds. Who knows but that
most of the wars between nations point
back ultimately to race antipathies,
which after all are nothing more than
emotions with history so ancient that
1t has been forgotten.
Emotions are also noted for their
propensities to interfere with what is
called judgment. Many man has
years Of toll just to satisfy his mo-
mentary emotional strivings. He be-
HAYES as If he had no sense. And for
the time being he really is devoid Of
reason. Even after the emotion is
satisfied he will go about with mood
that carries the same label as the
emotion that has apparently been
uieted.
If you have an important decision to
make, better follow the ancient advice
to sleep over it."
write that letter today, but don't
mail 1t until tomorrow"
When the emotions have chance to
cool down little the objects to which
| they refer take on an entirely different
! appearance.
Another thing-while the emotions
will stick to their old friends, they also
know how to take up new acquain-
tances In the words of scientific
psychology, they are easily condi-
toned" All this means that an
emotion may be easily transferred from
a person to a place. from a place to
a person. from person to name, or
from a name to person. People have
been known to carry a grudge for
years, showing an antipathy for every
new acquaintance that happened to
bear the same name as the person with
whom the original emotional attitude
was associated.
