at the time of the police strike, which
experience has become history.
We have not enough police in this
country. This is the fourth and great
est reason why we have so much crime.
The fifth cause is one that I APP
proach with fear and trembling. If any
one critisized our present educational
system, which has become almost a re-
ligion in this country, protests arise on
every hand, but 1 firmly believe that
the keeping of children in school until
they are 16 years old, endeavoring to
send through high school and college
those who are not fitted for this type
of education, is very bad thing.
Work Better for Many.
This practice is creating type of
loafer who is the victim of an educa-
tional system which keeps a boy from
working to earn his own money at a
time when he wants it and needs it. A
boy just verging on maturity feels the
urge to be independent. He Graves
amusement and at the same time wants
occupation which appeals to him.
These are the formative years in which
he can learn trade or hold job.
Even if he is allowed to work dur
ing the day, the law requires him to
attend night school, and this is too
much for his years. He should nave
his hours of recreation and he needs
money for that purpose. He feels the
injustice of being kept in school when
il no longer seems necessary to MIN
and often loses the inclination to work
later on, SO when he needs money he
is often led to steal it as the easiest
way Of getting it. One may well admit
that the desire for money is the basic
impulse of the majority of our crimes.
Five Causes Summarized.
Let us now sum up the five causes of
crime as 1 have detailed them:
l. Our unstable population.
2. Slowness of our judiciary.
3. Political control of police.
A. Not enough police.
5. Our educational system.
Now as to the punishment of crime
The science of punishment Is called
penology and. to sum 1t up briefly
there are two schools One is the
school of vengeance, which believes in
the most dreadful type of punishment
for the criminal and the other school
believes that the criminal should be
punished, but at the same time might
be so nodded that he will return To
his civil pursuits able to carry on his
This latter method seems to be the
logical one and the better one, for his
tory shows that harsh treatment does
no good and will never prevent crime
Most Offenders Escape.
It must be considered that ga men
out of every 100 in our New York State
prisons land approximately the same in
other States) come back to live as cit
liens again and it would seem logical
to treat the prisoners in such way
that they would come back better citi-
zens than when they entered the prison
A survey shows that IS per cent Of
the crime in the State of New York
was committed without being followed
by an arrest and that of the is pei
cent arrested only 2 per cent were
brought to justice. These are startling
figures Knowing these figures, many
of the prisoners feel that they are In
prison because they had poor luck. They
had a SO per cent chance to get away
with it, and they think the "98 pei

premium upon the performance
of the elf-advertiSer and the
demagogue.
Our Senators are no longer
chosen, as they used to be, by
responsible party organizations
in the State Legislatures. They
are nominated in popular pri-
marieS.
The easy way for a Senator
to keep his voters from for
getting his name is to make
them think he is important in
Washington. And the easy
way to achieve this seeming
Importance is to attack some
thing, or investigate something,
or become otherwise noisy and
conspicuous.
But be not discouraged.
I have stood in the labora-
tory where Edison worked so

electric light. I have seen the
old shed where Kettering be-
gan the experiments which
eliminated in the Self-starter
for automobiles. have visited
the tiny village where, in
modest house, Charles Darwin
wrote the book that changed the
trend of scientific thought. On
the gatepost is a tablet with
this inscription:
Here Darwin lived and
thought for 40 years, and
here, on April 10, 1882, he
died"
We can put up patiently
with quite a lot of Senators, so
long as we know that, back in
10000 quiet homes and shops
and Offices, there are Edisons
and Ketterings and Darwins.

r WAS talking recently with
Ted Clark, who was secre-
tary to Mr.. Coolidge at the
White House. He told me
about one of the famous Grid
iron dinners, at which a char
acter was made up to represent
the Front Page" The poor
fellow was emaciated and de-
spondent; he complained that
Coolidge had ruined him by
making so little news.
Ted said: II think that one
of the best and truest tributes
that could be paid to Coolidge
would say: He took the Gov

Women Forbidden
To Ride Mems Cycles

Bicycle riding is a crime in the town
of Nagukovos in Hungary, at least for
ladies who persist in using masculine
bicycles in preference to those designed
for their sex. Following what are de-
scribed as Immoral scenes" the chief
, of police in the town has prohibited
women cyclists or motor cyclists from
using mems machines. The penalties
are stiff-a fine OF 1870 pengoes (about
$l2) or two weeks in all.

returned to Washington after his cleo
ton was to sign the contract with Prof
Kemmerer and his financial mission.
1t is encouraging, indeed, to see the
Latin Americans, in spite of all ILL
intentioned talk of Yankee imperial
ism and dollar diplomacy" intrusting
to American experts the solution of
their financial problems. Confidence is
the basis OF international good will.
WHOLESALE HARD TIMES.
Another evidence that the economic
interdependence of nations is the gov
erning principle of business conditions
IN the world today is shown in the fact
that almost every country in the world
is suffer1ng, in one way or another, the
consequence of the general depression
which started with the New York stock
market crash of last year. Not a ma
tional but world crisis was the result
of that crash, and economic difficulties,
which have not as yet diminished in
certain countries, began to be felt
everywhere
Latin America has been one of the
regions most affected by the crisis. and
some of the Latin governments, so
closely bound by economic links to the
United States, are still striving to get
back on. their feet. Economic condi-
tons seem to be had all over the con-
tlnent There is business depression in
Mexico, there is an agricultural crisis
IN Cuba, there IS a general Stagnation
or business in Central America, there is
tin crisis in Bolivia, there is a coffee
crisis In Brazil, there is trouble eyery-
where And now the cable announces
that the Peruvian government, facing
a monthly loss of 100000 in customs
