Special Dispatch to The Star
LONDON, August 18.-The attraction
which the London police force has re-
Gently had for many university gradu-
ateS anxious to embark on a career Of
fering at the outset living wage and
eventually a substantial pension, has
aroused considerable discussion of the
effect which the highbrow under the
helmet may have upon this body OF
81 900 men who are already appraised
by most Londoners as the worlds best
cops.
Apart from their manners. which are
regarded as Chesterfieldian, the minions
Of the law in this capital enjoy the rep
utation of being endowed with more
than the average amount of tact, pa
tience, courage and horse sense. Will
the highbrowS be able to add more
luster to such an escutcheon
Oddly enough, a very appreciable
number of the metropolitan force, in
cluding the men in it who have risen to
fame as Scotland Yard sleuths, have
been recruits drawn from rustic en-
vironments who had little opportunity,
or lacked the necessary money, for ad-
vanced educational training.
The thick" transplanted to an urban
environment has frequently left his

competition for major posts. 1t is often
said that the powers of observation are
better developed in the lad brought up
in the country. At any rate the prin-
cipal Sherlock Holmeses of "the Yard"
in recent years all spent their youth in
bucolic surroundings. 1t remains to be
seen whether a university training will
produce even more capable sleuths at
time when efforts are being made
throughout the country to attune the
police machine to deal with motor
banditry and other varieties of mobile"
evildoing.
The highbrow recruit will enjoy no
preferment. Every candidate for the
London force must undergo period of
training at the special police school at
Peel House, and further period of pro-
baton before becoming qualified con-
stable. The probationer receives the
equivalent Of $3.50 week as salary.
Some of the highbrows evidently
hope to obtain responsible and lucra-
tive jobs In police forces in other parts
of the empire after they have made
good in London, for there is a steady
demand for promising men in such es-
Establishments abroad. Others will prob
ably aspire to higher places in London
itself or in the provinces.
Among the latest candidates for ad-
mission to the metropolitan force is J.

DOUBLE HONOR WON
, BY WARSHiP PENSACOLA
Highest Scorer in Target Practice
and Greatest in 1882 Battle
Practice Efficiency.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SAN PEDRO, Calf, August 27.-The
double honor of being the highest
scorer in target practice for all cruisers
in her class as well as showing the
greatest efficiency in battle practice
during the fiscal year was conferred
on the 10,O00-ton cruiser U. S. S. Pen
sacola of the Atlantic Fleet here today.
Vice Admiral William H STANDBY,
commander of cruisers Of the Scouting
Fleet on the Atlantic, awarded the an
nual gunnery trophy and the battle
efficiency pennant to Capt. David w.
Bagley commander of the Pensacola.
The Pensacola is the first of the treaty
cruisers to obtain either of the honors.
The two distinctions are seldom held
by the same craft at the same time.

country knows 1t in all It's cowardly
and brutal forms. Mr.. barrow, to be
sure, dressed this particular case up
with rhetoric, alienists and the sus-
picion Of insanity, but there could be
no Disgusting the ugly truth that
Kahahawai had been killed outside
the law to avenge crime of which
he had not even been convicted.
The assault on Mrs. Massie was a
horrible offense against the law and
decency, it will be readily granted,
and no stone should have been left I'M
turned in Hawaii to bring the per-
petrators of that hideous crime to jus
tice; still the responsibility for JUS
tice, under any government guaran-
teeing the right of an individual to
fair trial, was not Lieutenant Mas
sizes and not Mrs. Fortescue's, but
that of the courts and other consti-
tuted authorities Of Hawaii. If we
concede that lynching was justified in
the case Of Kahahawai, then it must
logically follow that lynching is JUS
titled as a means of avenging almost
any crime that seriously affronts the
social conscience, and that group vio-
lence has its necessary place as sup
plement to law and order.
A country which deplores the
stringing up of Negro for rape at
the hands of mob in Georgia cannot
logically defend the Staying of ma
tive rape suspect by members of a
vengeful little band in the Hawaiian
islands. Either lynch law is cowardice
and anarchy run riot and must be con-
demned as such or it is an acceptable
means to desirable end and deserves
the conformation of society. There
can be no half way ground, no point
of compromise, where two such
fundamental concepts are involved.
The Honolulu jury, if it did not yield
to sentiment as some would wish, at
least stood fast for those elemental
principles of law and order on which
enduring governments must rest"

THE OBSER YER
FRED G. THOMAS


In commenting on the verdict the
MINNEAPOLIS TRIBUNE in an
editorial makes this observation:
"This process of reasoning in the
Massie case is the popular one, with
out the slightest shadow of doubt
and yet in the last analysis it is the
type of reasoning which can be used
to justify lynchings and mob violences
of virtually every sort and descrip-
tion The prominence of those con-
victed of the Kahahawai Staying, and
the exotic atmosphere and unusual
circumstances surrounding it, unques-
tionably tended to mark it in the pub
lie mind as an eminently respectable
crime and yet the fact remains it did
not differ, in many of its really es-
sential details, from lynching as this
Twin-City herald. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1927-1940, 1932-05-07
THE MAssIE VERDICT

Whatever may have been our own
conclusions or sentiments regarding
the affair in Honolulu, where man
named Kahahawai, native, was
brutally murdered by four Americans,
the trial of which, resulted in their
conviction for manslaughter, we can
not but feel that they got what they
deserved. OF course it was surprise
verdict no one in this country ex-
pseted it. Nevertheless that jury did
2 wonderful thing in nipping in the
bud the American desire for taking
the law in their own hands. It will go
a long way in preventing the spread
OF the disgrace Of America from be-
coming popular in Hawaii.

If Indy had hired a colored maid

Why more Negroes are not en-

How much greater the prestige of

Why so many Negroes borrow in

Ive learned a aoay to slenderize-
You simply cannot beat it,
And for the gal Dho needs most
l gladly WiH repeat it:
Cook Dhdt you Dill-but albays let
The other tellop eat IT.
TT ARD HEARTED as it may
sound, the woman who wants
IL to keep slender is either
going to have to deprive her family
of the good things they want and
are entitled to, or she is going to
have to sit by and watch them eat
the goodies she cooks. This latter
plan certainly takes will-power but
a simmer figure is the reward, and
1t Is not SO hard once one makes up
her mind. And there are still plenty
OF good things M may eat while
the program is on.
For instance, a juicy steak, eaten
with salad, vegetables and dry toast
two or three times a week, will con-
tract rather than expand the fem
mime waist-line, according to one Of
the worlds foremost authorities on
beauty, Nine. Helena Rubinstein,
and goodness knows every woman
wants a slim waistline these days.
Here are four ruler for a healthfu1
yet slenderizing diet which Nine.

1. Relax and rest digestive organs
by going on a one-food diet Of orange
juice or baked potatoes or grapes for
3 or 4 days every 6 or z weeks.
2. Eat three meals a day if you are
accustomed to that many, but alb
stain from over-gensrous or second
helpings.
8. Drink plenty of water-at least
10 glasses a day, but never with
meals.
4. Reduce starches, sugars. and
fats in your diet and introduce in
creased quantities Of fruits and vege-
tables.
Do you think y can stick to
these?
Here is a suggested luncheon dish
that Is satisfying and appetizing but
not weight-accumulating: Chop one

and n stalk of celery. Season.
Mix with two tablespoons full Of
mayonnaise made with mineral oil,
instead Of olive or vegetable oil, and
lemon juice instead Of vinegar.
Sprinkle half a tablespoonful Of

Defer Advertising Land For Taxes
WEEKS DELAY
IS GRANTED BY
COMMISSIONERS
Further ~PostPomememt
Would Affect Financial
Standing Of County,
Board Is Advised.

The county commissioners Thurs
day delayed the advertising of land
for delinquent axe until next week.
All of the commissioners are OPP
posed to the advertisement and sale
of land for taxes at the present time
and hope a delay is possible. However,
O. L. Linn, temporary chairman, and
J. E. Haynes, auditor, were advised in
Raleigh Wednesday by the local gov
eminent commission and other state
officials that advertisements must be-
gin next week in order hat a sale can
be had on the first Monday in June.
Another meeting of the board will
be held next week to definitely decide
the matter.
State officials pointed out to Com
missioner Linn and Auditor Haynes
that postponement more than a week
would be in violation of the law and
would probably affect the financial
standing of the several counties in the
state. Should the statutes be disregard
ed, it was also stated, some difficulty
in the sale of bonds might be encoun-
tered in the future.
Because of the depression and the
present financial crisis, the commits
sioners hoped that the advertisement
and subsequent sale of land for taxes
could be indefinitely postponed.

Grow A Pasture
Or Quit Dairying

The most economical way to feed
dairy cows is to have a good pasture
and supplement the grazing with the
proper grain and roughage mixtures.
This is the natural way to feed COWS
and to produce milk at a profit.
Either have a pasture Or quit dairy
ing.
In this way does A. C. Kinney,
dairy extension specialists at State
College, stress the value of having a
plentiful supply of nutritious graz
ing for milk producing COWS. Dairy
men have attempted from time to
time to keep COWS in unnatural con-
ditions. But the wise dairyman assists
nature by supplying an abundance of
luxuriant and tender grass during as
many months Of the year as possible.
