BIBLE WRITTEN IN
MODERN LANGUAGE
Many Passages of Scriptures Have
Been Changed Radically in the
Translation.

Chicago, Oct. g. A modern
American Bible, written in simple.
vigorous and easy to read English
is in the making.
DR.. Edgar ]. Goodspeed is re-
sponsible for the new Testament
and DR.. ]. M. Fowls Smith for the
old. The book will be off the
University of Chicago presses early
next month, the first complete
translation of its kind.
The narrative runs along smooth
ly, almost as though it were an
exquisitely written modern novel.
The birth Of Jesus, Luke 2:8-14.
thus is described:
"There were some shepherds in
that neighborhood keeping watch
through the night over their flocks
in the open fields. And an angel
of the Lord stood by them. and
they were terribly frightened. The
angel said to them:
"'Do not be frightened, for I
bring you good news of a great
joy that is felt by all the people.
for today, in the town of David, a
Savior for you mas been born. WHO
is your Messiah and Lord. And
this will prove it TO you: You
will find a baby wrapped I'D and
lying in a manger.'
Suddenly there appeared with
the angel a throng of the heaven
ly army, praising God saying:
Glory to God in heaven and
earth! Peace to the men he ia
vors!"
The proverbs too are simplified.
until they sound like the most mod
ern Of epigrams. For instance:
All the ways of a man are
pure in his own eyes; but the Lord
weighs the motives"
"A navish man. thoughts are
lce-cold; but the words on his Inns
are like a scorching fire.

Hoover and by him given to the pub
lie. The appalling growth Of criminal
ity, according to the commission, Is
largely the<result of ineffectiveness of
criminal justice which is attributable
to procedure unsuited to modern con-
ditions, to incapacity of prosecutors,
to the subsection of prosecutors .tospo-
litical organizations affiliated with
criminals, and to the lack of scien-
tific treatment of criminal tendencies
of individuals in formative stages.
The commission declared 1t was In
substantial accord with the following
major findings of several state sur
veys:
Juvenile delinquency is the heart
Of the problem of crime prevention.
Careful working methods and adj
ministrative practices in nolles, ac-
ceptances of plea of lesser offense,
and other forms of dismissals and dis
positions without trial, whereby the
responsibility for these dispositions
will be definitely located, careful rec
ords will be required, and the dis
position will be based on thorough
inquiry and on definite principles.
abolition of requirement Of grand
jury indictment in every felony case.
Fright of the accused to waive trial
by jury.
increase Of judges control over
the conduct of the trial.
Development toward centralized
state supervision of the administra-
ton of criminal justice in all it's
part"
Five recommendations are submit
ted applicable generally to substan-
TALLY all the state, pointing out the
lines to be followed in attempts to
better local systems of prosecution"
These recommendations are:
81. Elimination, so far as may be
possible in our system. of government,
of political considerations in the selec-
ton and appointment of federal dis
trict attorneys and prosecuting officers
and of appointments based upon
political activity or service.
20. Better provision for the selec-
ton and tenure of prosecutors in the
states and especially for the organ
ization, personnel, tenure, and COM
pensation of the staff of the prose-
cutor's Office.
"3. Such an organization of the
legal profession in each state as shall
insure competency, character, and
discipline among those who are en-
gagged in the criminal courts.
II. systematized control Of prose-
cutions in each state under director
Of public prosecutions or some equiva-
lent official, with secure tenure and
concentrated and defined RESPONSE
bility.

that Zita sought the aid Of the Holy
See in the restoration of her son,
Archduke Otto. to the throne of Aus
tria.
Another rumor in Rome was that
Zita was there In the hope of arrang-
ing a marriage between Otto and
Princess Maria, youngest daughter Of
the king and queen of Italy. In semi
official but well informed circles it
was said no consideration would be
given to such proposal at the pres
ent time; but if the young archduke
ever is permitted to mount the Aus
trian throne-which is unlikely-the
house of Savoy might agree to the
marriage.

in New York, has announced that he
has filed with President Hoover
charges against Seymour Lowman, as
sistant secretary of the treasury. for

fcrcement. whom he accuses Of being
derelict in his duty. Campbell says he
made the complaint against Lowman
some time ago and 1t was turned over
to Secretary of the Treasury Mellon.
who refused to take any action; so
now he alleges in his letter to the
President that Mr.. Mellon took adj
vantage of his official position to con-
ceal facts and thus shield a govern
ment official "who is dereliet in his
office" Last year Campbell published
a series of syndicated press articles
which purported to show that Lowman
had urged him to relax prohibition
enforcement during the 1928 Presi-
dentia, campaign.
n EN-. CHANG KAI-SHEK, head
" of the Chinese Nationalist gov
eminent, believes the Communist
bandit menace Is the gravesr problem
facing the Chinese people; so he has
taken the field personally against the
rohber bands that are terrorizing
kiangSi and Human provinces and has
appealed to his fellow officers Of the
Nationalist army to give him all their
help in the suppression of commun.
ism. In a public statement General
Chang charged the Canton insur-
gents with making tools of the mill
tary forces regarding the recent Can,
tonese charges against himself that
he was trying 10 become the military
dictator. To refute these charges he
promised that If he were successful
in eradicating communism he would
divest himself of all military power
and retire to his farm in Chekiang
province. If he failed, he said. he
would die on the battlefield.
