Sentencing of CapOne
Held Heartening Sign
From the st. Joseph Gazette.

From the st. Joseph Gazette.
Six months in Jail for Al Capone is
not going to make Chicago rosebed OF
civic righteousness, nor Will 1t loosen
the grip Of the racketeer there to any
great extent. But it will demonstrate to
the motley horde Of the half-world who
have basked in the effulgence OF the
big fellow" that he is not immune, and
that there are powers and influences
greater than his.
Just as the medicine man of an Afrl-
can tribe loses his grip when volley
from the white mems rifles demon
strates that his person is not sacred, SO
the scar-faced one inevitably will topple
from his pedestal when his followers
see him lodged in jail for no greater an
offense than contempt Of Federal Court
for presenting evidence that he was
too i'll to come to court when 1t was
shown he was enjoying the life of mil
lionaire racketeer in the sunny South
land.
Much of the power Of the overlords
of gangdom is built on the presumption
that they are able to FIX" everything
the courts, the police and the political
chieftains. At this sort of thing the
swarthy Capone has been eminently sue
ceSsful, especially during the regime of
Mayor big Bill Thompson in Chicago.
But when it came this time to the Fed
eral Court, with a district attorney
whose speciality seems to be vice barons
who have evaded the payment of in
come taxes, and a Judge with no rev.
erence for the rulers Of the underworld,
Capone was powerless. And after Capone
finishes his stretch of six months on
the contempt charge it looks as II he
will have to reckon with prosecution for
income tax evasion, on which charge
several of his chief lieutenants are now
spending time at Leavenworth.
OF course, Al Capone is but symbol.
He is the present big shot" of the
criminal strata in Chicago. There will
soon be another to take his place as
leader But it is at least heartening
sign that the individual who stands for
the ultimate in disregard for law is to
be put away for period Eventually
this civilization of ours will make up its
mind that there is no place in the
scheme of things for Capones, but until
then we can be grateful that our Gov
eminent is powerful enough at times to
Jail one of them.

both the north and the south.
Conditions have been unsettled ever
since Sanchez Cerro'S revolutionary
regime was installed six months ago,
and the present situation is confused
by the presence of no less than flve diff
ferent political factions eager for power

Leguia, the rebel forces at Piura, the
southern junta" at Arequipa, the San
chez Cerro faction and the most recent

headed by DR.. Ricardo Leoncio Elias"
by one of the ironies of life" re-
marks the Hamilton (Ontario) Spec
tator, ''the revolt against Cerro's rule
came from the district which placed
him In power. There may be good
reason for this. He may have promised
more to his strongest adherents than he
did to others, and while politics is o
promising profession, the people are
sometimes so unreasonable as to expect
pledges TO be honored."
ct may be hoped" suggests the
Kalamazoo Gazette, that the present
Peruvian crisis will not prove as con-
tagiouS in other South American coun-
tries as did the ousting Of Leguia last
Summer" That paper also comments:

Training in Grammar
Is Thought Neglecte /

From the Oklahoma City Daily Oklahoman.
Heads of departments of English in
Oklahoma's institutions of higher learn
ing recently published . formidable
tome weighted with tears and lamenta-
tions on the horrible state of freshman
English in our colleges and universities.
The high schools, according to the
report, are graduating pupils who know
no more about the mother tongue than
the average alderman, which is deplor-
ably little. Comparisons reveal that
Oklahoma is behind her sister States In
this respect. which leads to the conclu-
sion that greater emphasis is placed on
English in the public schools outside
our borders.
Moreover, the report goes on to the
important assumption that our colleges
are graduating English teachers who
are not sapient enough, or assiduous
enough, to sell the principle of the un-
divided infinitive to the little ones COM
ing up through all the doubts and tor
mentS of the grade school.
The report concludes that something
ought to be done about it, and that
without delay. The requirements for en-
tering college need stiffening, and so
do the requirements for obtaining q
teachers certificate.
When the report indicates that our
children should not be sent out into the
world without a thorough knowledge Of
the language prevalent in the republic
we quite agree.

Of Columbia, even II he wanted to? Is
there any possibility that street car
conductors are going to accept the three
cent tickets on any days but school
days, even If the youngster proffers
them? And will the bright young man
or young lady who has the faintest idea
Of the meaning of 'order No Ss8 Of the
Public Utilities Commission Of the Dis
trict of Columbia" please raise his hand
AZ walk up to the head of the class?
The pupil who wishes to buy thirty
cents worth of car tickets must first
take the pledge, mark with an x
whether he wants thirty cents or a
dollar and twenty cents worth of
tickets, ask teacher please to sign and
take the application to the corner drug
store, where he will be tempted to
spend the thirty cents on soda pop and
walk home. In addition, teacher must
sign an Identification blank for the
pupil to show suspicious conductors,
who will carefully note same to guard
against the possibility of bank presi-
dents and bureau chiefs riding to work
for three cents disguised as school chill
dren.
How the teachers are going to get
around to teaching, busy as they will
be with filling out applications for
street car tickets, is one thing. Whether
the whole detailed procedure is not
rather silly is another

interject the liquor question into this
assemblage of Progressives, he will make
himself decidedly unpopular. The Pro-
gressives are ready to make trouble
for this administration, or any other
administration. They do not like to
have trouble made for themselves. 1t
is their purpose to have Progressive"
issues the main topic Of consideration
in the coming session of Congress and
in the national campaign which fol-
lows. They would dislike intensely to
see their pet issues sidetracked in their
conference for the sake of the liquor
issue.
The Progressives are to give their at
tention at the conference to return of
representative government, and to I'M
employment and industrial stabiliza-
ton, public utilities and their relations
to the Government, agricultural relief
and the tariff. This is an extensive
program. It is clear that the Pro-
greSsiveS are intent upon undermining
the confidence Of the public IN the ad-
ministration. There will be many at
tacks, criticisms and what not leveled
at the President and his supporters.
Perhaps the Progressive Democrats in
the group will level some of their
shafts at "reactionaries" in the Demo-
cratic party. But when 1t comes to
real venom, the Progressive Republican
has it all over his Democratic colleague.
Furthermore, the Democrats, Progress
sives and all, are intent upon electing
President next year, whether he be
wet or dry, Progressive or reactionary.
