The King of Crime

TAPONE is to crime what Ford is
~ to the automobile and what
Gary was to steel. He has put it
ON business basis, showing what
organization and system could do.
He also has shown the weak spots
in our law enforcement machinery.
Chicago authorities have tried to
"get him" by pretense at least, for
several years. While their failure is
partly due to incompetence, the stu
pendouS organization he has built
up can not be ignored, nor the
enormous sources of revenue he
commands, nor the fact that he car
ries enough votes around in his vest
pocket to WELD certain amount Of
political influence, nor the further
fact that he knows things which
might prove embarrassing to certain
officials.

1t is simply impossible to reconcile
the kind of publicity he has received
with the immunity he enjoys, and
that has something to do with the
crime problem in America.
BY conversation he has been &C

sponsibility for dozen major
crimes. AS far as public opinion
can make him SO, he is an outcast.
But, according to law, he is guilty
of nothing worse than INSIDE

LEAD, KINDLY LIGHT

LEAD, KINDLY Light
I'M June 16. 1888, Cardinal John
" Henry Newman wrote while
crossing the Mediterranean sea the
famous hymn, Lead, Kindley
Light" A brilliat man in the
church of England, beloved and adj
mired for his character and great
gifts, Newman nevertheless became
a doubter of professionalism. So he
was moved to write:
Lead, kindly light, amid the encir-
cling gloom,
Lead Thou me on;
The night is dark and I am far
from home,
Lead Thou me on.
Keep Thou my fete; do not ask
to see
The distant scene; one step enough
Tor me.
Nine years after he wrote this,
Cardinal Newman retired to the lit
tie village Of Littlemore, where he
passed three years in Seclusion
wrestling with his attitude toward
the church.
Emerging from his retirement
Nemman became a convict to the
Roman Catholic church.
In 1879 Leo XIII created New
man a cardinal. allowing him to re-
side IN England.

years ago, when sitting in night
court, it became his duty to pass
sentence upon a woman accused of
soliciting.
The evidence against her was
overwhelming and yet he hated the
whole mode Of police haraSsment Of
the unfortunates.
1t seemed to him a system which
solved nothing. And when the
workhouse term was handed down
the woman turned suddenly upon
the policeman who appeared against
her and with neatly timed right
swing knocked him down.
This was, among other things
contempt of court and merited and
received additional punishment. A
year or SO later Magistrate Corri-
gan was stopped upon the street by
a woman and he undertook to ques-
ton her as to the conditions which
existed in regard to police prrotec-
tons, agents provocateur and so on.
Realizing that he seemed bent
wholly upon sociological research,
the professional pedestrian grew
suspicious and said, "'Would you
mind taking off your hat?"

Solids

DRAGG then went on to describe
,O the ways in which nature en-
ployS the molecules.
1.-THE next step in natures archi-
lecture is the linking of molecules
to form solid substances, such as the
substances which we see around us
and ourselves" Bragg continued.
1.-THE properties of all substances
depend upon the way the molecules
are put together, just as house, or
its interior, has character and a
usefulness. which depend upon its
design, or just as the meaning of a
sentence depends upon the words
it contains and on the way they are
arranged.
This second step is not always
made; the hindrance to its accom-
plishment is heat. Heat Is a mode
Of motion.
When, for example, the mole
cules of water are set In very rapid
motion by irnparting sufficient heat
to them, the forces that would
make them combine are overcome;
the molecules exist as independent
individuals and we have water
vapor or steam.
with less heat and less motion,
the molecules are always in part
nership, but always changing part
ners, and we have water.
Still less heat, and the mole
cules become attached permanently
to each other in unchanging posi-
tions, and thus ice is formed.
Some molecules feel heat more
than others, so that at ordinary
temperatures some substances are
solid, some liquid, and some are
gases"

Considering how many times he
has arrested Capone, only to see the

away without suffering more in

Still. some people, and especially
in Chicago, will be glad to learn
that he is undiscouaged.
Not that the scsrfaced one has
done anything worse than stage a
few wild parties during his sojourn
in Miami, but that his presence is

real estate men.
His reputation fails to impress
them as an advertising asset, in
which respect they are neither queer
nor peculiar, since few ambitious
communities in America would feel
otherwise.

TIME man who has to appeal and

justice done him is not going to
come out of the ordeal wholly sat-
isf1ed with the estate of American

I often have been puzzled about
the familiar proverb which states
that the mills of the gods grind
slowly. This is tossed off almost as
if it we're virtue to have justice
move on leaden feet. I say "the

And surely much time and tribu-
lation and recrimination can be
saved all around by settling every
dispute right at the moment of its
inception.

"NEAR- FAMINE" CAUSED
BY PROVIDERS RIVAL
Colored Man Sentenced to Year for
Theft of Doughnuts and
Milk.

Edward Jones, alias "Doughnuts,"
colored, almost caused famine in the
panther paved" territory of Northeast
Washington, according to police of the
eleventh and ninth precincts.
Jones lived on the country in very
much the same way as the marauding
beast, although his victims were such
helpless things as TOO doughnuts and
so quarts of milk.
The mans depredations caused more
loss than his rival.
Various store operators, after ordering
doughnuts and milk, would arrive at
their business quarters the next morn
ing to find their doorstep stocks very
much depleted. Twenty-nine of these
persons complained to authorities.
Jones admitted taking the food. He
told Judge Schuldt he had a great lik-
ing for doughnuts, especially when he
could have milk to wash them down.

satisfactory views of buildings are from
reasonably close standpoints. But it
Is also true that there is a pleasant
sense of mystery in long street view.
The distant building exerts a pull in
that direction, and whether we respond
to the pull or not it gives us a lively
sense of the great area brought into
esthetic control. In most cities we can't
see the woods for the trees. L'Enfant
had no intention of letting the houses
of Washington hide the city.
Perhaps it is not unquestionable
praise to call Washington the city of
magnificent distances, but by archi-
tectural skill it is possible to make great
distances truly magnificent. Paris is,
of course, the classic example, and sew
eral Partisan vistaS, comparable to the
vista from the Mall to the F street hill,
are longer. The Avenue de POpera, for
instance, is $500 feet long, as against
1890 in the Washington dimension with
which comparison is being made. The
distance from the Chamber of Deputies
to the Madeleine is about 5000. From
the Avenue des Champs Elysees to the
dome of the Invalides, one of the finest
street views in Europe, is more than
$500 feet.
I'm Rome the Porta del Popolo is
about 900 feet from the Piazza di
Venezla. Inc beautiful vista up the
narrow Via Condotti from the Corso
to the church on the hill is only $500
feet, but more distant views are also
fine. BY the test of these universally
admired European examples it can
hardly be proved that L'Enfant erred in
this passage of his plan, particularly
when you remember that he intended a
strong intermediate accent, the fountain
in Pennsylvania avenue, to break the
distance from the Mall avenue to the
pantheon.
Blemish in Air View.
Another phase of the new plan is
its unfortunate effect from the air.
Washington is hardly beyond infancy.
The city'S middle and elder years will
be lived in the age of the air It is
utter stupidity to put up buildings in
washington without considering their
beauty as seen from above. What have
the Government architects done? With
the help of professional committees,

the blessings of the Art Commission,

conspicuous lack of symmetry and block

them forever a blemish in the air view

Kingsley Porter, used the phrase paper

OF the current building art. BY it he
pointed to the tendency to design in

the American skyscraper, with its set
backs and towers, has showed us the
value of the controlled plastic mass. AS
we become used to seeing buildings
from the air this attitude will strengthen
and beauty in the fiat facade will be
more and more supplemented by a bold
sculpturing of the whole body of the
building. No longer will it be possible
to pretend that building is a solid

execution. But It was a plan. for the
