Prohibition and Homicides

The eminent statsg1cian, Frederick L. Hoffman,
discusses facts and theories relative to homicide
an article in The Spectator. The homicide rate in
the United States remains international scandal.
It has risen from 81 to 100000 of the population in
1900 to 105 in 1929. The rate for Canada in 1928
was 10 and for England and Wales in the same
year O.5.
DR.. Hoffman believes that prohibition may have
had something to do with this increase of the
homicide rate in the United States:
ut is with some reluctance that touch upon the
problem OF prohibition. BY common consent, the
enforcement of prohibition has brought into existence
an organization Of crime and criminals such no
other country the face Of the globe has ever known
in history. Gangsters and gunner are being killed day
after day"
DR.. Hofmans own figures show, however, that pro-
hbition has played decisive part in creating
present homicide problem. Most convincing of all is
the fact that, while the homicide rate doubled in the
pre-prohibton days from 1900 to 1919 it has increased
but slightly in the decade of prohibition The horn-
eide rate in 1900 ST. BY 1919 it had risen to 91
It had advanced only to 1o5 in 1929
Further Chicago, the chief arena of gang wars
booze and enforcement, had homicide rate of
only 1871 in 1929, while in the dry belt we ind
Memphis with a homicide rate of 66.9 in 1929 and
Birmingham with homicide rate of 513 in the
same year.
Nor does homicide appear to be correlated with
degree of avowed wetness. The ten leading cities
in the United States with respect to high homicide
rate are all found south Of Mason and Dixons line
in the dry area, which repudiated Al Smith in
1928. These cities, with their homicide rates to
100 600 are as follows:

essary.

This folly is imminent. 1t is up to Hoover TO
avert it."
Thus cables William Philip Smms, Scripps-How-
ard correspondent on the approaching death of the
London naval conference-"an unspeakable calamity.
because it would expenditure of billions of dol
lars in naval race which might end in war;"
The reduction conference may be saved by "a for
NAL offer from America to participate in conSulta
ton pact in the event of the threat of war; says
Simms. His statement is based not only upon his
Investigations in London but upon personal CONVEX
satons with French leaders in Paris.
Significance Of Simns' dispatch is not that it is
new but that it is authoritative 1t substantiates
in unanswerable form what majority of the Amer
lean press and what 1900 national leaders OF public
opinion and tens of thous ands OF citizens in petitions
to the President have been saying.
Virtually every correspondent and observer at
London has written that collapse of the conference
began with Americas refusal to join in consulta
ton pact
We do not know what led the President to make
that costly decision. But we do know that it is
complete reversal of American foreign policy, as
written into treaties and ratified by the senate. The
President has reversed the policy of the power
Pacific treaty and the Kellogg pact.
That is q very serious responsibility.
We believe that President Hoover has only two
CHOICES in this crisis:
Either he must follow American policy by i'm
nledately Offering consultation treaty at London;
Or he must at once explain and justify his
precedented reversal of American peace policy.
On the verge of "a naval race which might erd
= Szz," the American people and the world want to
know-and have right to know-what is behind this
new and dangerous Hoover policy

One More Reason

Another reason for the calling of con-
stitutionaI convention to rewrite the present
document. which has become sadly warped
bv judicial decree, is furnished by the ex-
nerience of the farmers in endeavoring to Ie-
galize an income tax.
There may be difference of opinion as
to the advisabiity Of such tax. There
can be no argument as to the right of the
people to a chance to adopt such measure if
they wish.
The courts have held that the present
Constitution prevents raising funds in this
manner. The farmers, believing that they
are carrying the heavy burden, for years
have tried to obtain such tax.
They followed the orderly processes. 1t
has been a long fight, lasting for years. They
first passed a law, only to have it declared
unconstitutional. They then took what they
believed to be the necessary steps to change
the Constitution through an appeal for an
amendment. This takes two sessions of the
Legislature. At each session there was strong
opposition from determined forces. Men
with large incomes do not like the idea.
Having won against the powerful inter
ests, the farmers and workers expected to
have chance to appeal to the people on the
merits Of the proposal itself. They believed
they could convince the voters of the advis-
ability of their program.
Now it is discovered that, at the last
minute, in the office of some clerk, change
of word is made in the law. The change
was not made by the lawmakers. The mis-
take was not that of an elected official 1t
may have been made purposely or maudlinly
in the last hours of the session.
Because of this mistake, the people will
not vote on the proposed change. The work
of eight years of sincere effort on the part
of the farmers who followed the legal path
is nullifed. Instead of law, there is anarchy.
When such denial of public right is
venal or an incompetent clerk, the one rem
edy seems to lie in the direction of new
Constitution that will safeguard the greatest
of all rights, which is to control the govern
ment under which they live
At the present time the government
seems to rest in the hands of political bench
men of interests which work in the dark and
nullify honest efforts of those who cling to
the illusion that the government is in the
hands of the people.
A new Constitution, liberal enough in its
provisions to protect the people from an
archy, despotism and ignorance, seems nee
essary.

XIOU will observe that Mrs. Doheny testified for Mr..

close contact with his folks as to be dragged

That's when a dear fellow sings Home Sweet

The Filpinos will not have to beat up American

WHEN you read in the papers about these dino

you to regard Adam and Eve pair of moderns
who passed away only week before last.
Texas went to law to grab 28,500 acres OF land
from Oklahoma, proving once more that the more

The greatest thing that could possibly happen for
the cause of religion in the United States would be
to have atheistic performances given all over the
country by this crowd of 1900 Russian nuts who
held monster meeting in New York last Sunday and
denounced the Lord.

n Forthcoming census such cattle will be counted in
all of our cities and used basis for congressional
reapportionment, the cities such account taking

tice.

Naval Farley Is FiZzle

w. ~ VI ~ ~ 'EGiO
WHETHER a six months ad-
w journment would do any
good, it represents about the only
way in which the naval conference
can save its face.
Outside Of few humanitarian
gestures, the naval conference has
accomplished nothing.
France and Italy, unable to agree
between themselves, have dropped
the idea of f1ve-poWer pact.
Japan, England and the United
States, though they might rig up
three power-pact, appear unwilling
to accept any commitments which
would change the status quo ma
terially.
Things being as they are, the boys
might just as we'll shut up shop
and come home, and the United
States might just as we'll adopt a
program which would guarantee her
a navy equal to that Of Great
Britain.
Those who hoped for better re-
suit will be disappointed, but they
should console themselves with the
thought that no one is worse off
than before.
Putting that aside, the naval con-
ference has shown what we really
are up against.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1930-03-26

On the other hand we find that the homicide rate
in wet New York is only IL. DR.. Hoffman suggests
that the high rate in these southern cities is to be
explained chiefly the basis of the high percentage
Of Negroes here.
If this be true, then the race situation is far
powerful in its effect upon crimes of violence than
the alcohol issue. But northern cities with
large Negro population do not to have dispro-
portionately high homicide rates.
Another fact about these southern cities is of spe-
cal interest They the hotbeds of religious
orthodoxy, and the Negroes are even more prone to
religious fervor than the whites.
Without going any further, this is adequate proof
that piey is adequate safeguard against homicida
tendencies.
The plain fact is that our homicide scandal can
not be attributed to any single It's roots lie
deep in the American tradition of lawessness in our
frontier habits, in our remarkable degree of racial
and cultural admixture and in progressively more
complicated social and economic conditions.
1t is national problem in the truest of that
term, however much special trends and local condi
tons may color the general situation.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1930-03-26

Human fiber must not be allowed to
disintegrate.
One Of the tragedies of unemploy-
ment which followed the business
and financial let-down, was the dis
tresS among the So-called white
collar workers.
Being out OF a job is no bed of
roses for anybody, but to a good
many clerks and typists it was a
new experience. They were afflicted
with panic as well as distress.
Many of the estimates of unem-
ployment include only those people
who are actually on the bread line
or seeking shelter from municipal
lodging houses.
1t is broader than that. When
the casual worker is out of lob
1t may be that he suffers by himself.
The White-collar man or woman is
apt to drag others down with him.
If he or she lives with his family
an added burden is put upon a
budget already strained. He may
have to get help from his friends
and bring them down close to the
danger line. There are agonies
which have nothing to do with
actual physical hunger.
Something must be done about it.
America can not be and must not
be a country in which the individual
is allowed to starve to death with
out any outside interference what
soever.

why don't you give hand to Sgd
ney Franklin, the well-known espa-
da, torero, matador, or whatever?
mot only because you and he are
both Brooklyn boys but because he
seems to have a fortnight thoro-
ughness that is lacking in some Of
our native pastimes, such as the So
called prize ring. Every one Of
Franl1lin's fights ends in knock
out.
Sometimes 1t is Franklin who is
knocked out, sometimes the bull;
but at any rate, they never put on
a sparring match to no decision
and Franklin never carries the bull
along for a return bout.
Maybe the attitude Of the Gus
toners has something to do with
this. AS I understand the ethics OF
bull fighting, or rather of the some
what safer pastime Of watching bull
fighting, the man is always sup
posed to win. If he doesn't they
give him the Bronx cheer.
mo matter how good fight he
may put up. if by some mischance
he takes a sharp jab from the left
horn in the kidney, he is just a
lousy bum in the eyes of the GUS
toners, and the sooner the hook
drags him off the better.

amount Of iron to be taken day,
which is about 1900 of an ounce.
The entire amount Of iron in the
circulation is about 220 milligrams.
If ten milligrams are wasted
daily by means of used-up red blood
cells, the amount supplied in forty
milligrams is well beyond the COM
pIete waStage.
1t must be remembered that the
figure of forty milligrams is in the
case Of a dog weighing ten kilo-
grams, and that an adult human
being weighs about seventy kilo-
grams.
Thus for an adult human being,
the amount would be $50 milli-
grams, which is about 1-100 Of an
ounce.
Iron seems to be the most potent
metal substance in rebuilding blood
after hemorrhage and apparently
the excess amount Of iron given over
the amount lost has an effect on
organs which build red blood cells.
In addition to iron, manganese
and copper seem to affect the blood
production. Zinc, aluminium, anti

and sodium iodide seem to have but
little effect.
OF particular value in building
blood after anemia produced by
bleeding were liver sausage. blood
sausage and to some extent large
amounts of gelatin.
Egg yolk and egg white seem to be
of relatively less value. Obviously
there are factors beside iron which
are important in blood regenera-
ton.
When spinach and cabbage were
added to the diet they had a stimu-
lating effect, but not nearly so great
as that of spinach and cabbage with
extra iron, so that it has seemed
to the investigators that probably
the iron is not the only substances
in the spinach that might be of
value.
Onions and orange juice were
found to be of little value for the
purpose
1t has not seemed to the investi-
gators that the vitamins are in any
way concerned with the building of
fresh red blood coloring matter in
blood cells after anemia.
