The American issue. [volume] (Westerville, Ohio) 1912-19??, 1930-05-01

The character of the penalties provided
in our prohibition laws must be deter
mined by the character OF the enemies of
society sought TO be suppressed by them.
The bootleggers and their allies of the UNI
derworld are striking at the very founda-
ton of the Republic. They are organized
for the express purpose of violating law.
They have paid attorneys and carefully
prearranged plans to forestall, and in case
of detection, to eyade the meshes of the
law. They defy the Constitution and all
authority. They assassinate citizens and
officials who dare to interfere with them.
When bulldozing, blackmail and bribery
fail. they resort to bombs and bullets. It
isn't vey FAR cry from moonshining and
run-running to murder and ruthless de-
struction of property.
Manifestly, this kind of organized law
1essness cannot be suppressed by any
wishy -washy methods. Admonitions from
courts, soft words and fires will never do
it
The outstanding weakness in prohibi-
ton enforcement from the beginning has
been the policy maintained by so many
Judges in melting out low fines instead of
Jail sentences. This policy is a direct in
vitation to the law violator to continue
his nefarious traffic. Ordinary fines are
an incentive to more selling to make the
extra expense of the fine, rather than
deterrent To continue the filming policy
which seems to be fixed on the part of
manv judges, is travesty on justice,
mockery of the majesty of the law, The
judge who persists in that method of
handling liquor-law violators as a regular
practice, really stands between the people
and law and order; he belittles the dig
nifty of all law and forfeits his right to
the confidence of patriotic, loyal citizens.
While there are many notable exceptions,
generally speaking. there is need of more
JUDGES with less sympathy for the vio-
lator. and more sympathy for the wives
and children or widows and orphans OF
his victims.
