PROTECTION AGAINST KIDNAP-
ING

What will be the outcome of the
Lindbergh kidnapping, as respects
protecting children against the foul
beasts who mediate such crimes?
There has been no special haste to
modify the laws on this terrible
crime, for fear it might affect the
return of the Lindbergh baby. But
when the various legislatures meet
again, the subject should not be for
gotten. If the laws do not provide
adequate retribution for this outrag-
eous crime, they must be modified.
This offense amply. deserves the
death penalty. Yet if that penalty is
imposed the kidnapers have no OBJ
ject to keep a child alive. They would
know that if they put it out of the
way, they have committed no worse
offense than the original act of child
stealing. Quite likely life imprison-
ment is the penalty that should be
imposed.
1t seems intolerable, that many
wealthy parents will have to MAIN |
tain guard over their children night |
and day, to secure protection against !
such terrible acts. A child could
hardly be expected to grow up with
normal instincts, if it is deprived of
the freedom which other children
have, but must constantly have
guards and nurses tagging along.
Dogs with powerful barking or
gans and we'll sharpened teeth will
be popular. Children's sleeping
rooms will have better protection in
the future. All children should be
warned carefully against the danger
Of accepting rides from strangers. It
seems dreadful that they must so !
soon become conscious of the evil
about them, but it can't be helped.
That is the kind of a world we j
lave permitted to grow up. AS the !
Scripture said, "But while men slept, !,
he enemy came and sowed tares q
lmong the wheat. While America
las been morally sleeping, the enc +
ny has owed tares. v

STUDEBAKER ANNOUNCES NEW
MODELS

1t is doubtful if many motorists
stop to consider the Importance o
wheel construction when purchasing
an automobile. Yet wheels are OBJ
/ ViOusly Il major factor in safe driv.
ing. In the case of the new Stude-
baker State and Regal models, they
( play an outstanding part in the pat.
| tern of safety built into these cars.
Sludebaker President Eight, Com
mander Eight, Dictator Eight and
Studebaker Six State and Regal mod
els are equipped with a new chrOm-
ium plated steel spoke artillery type
wheel which is several times strong
err than wood wheel of equal size,
though no heavier.
These new wheels are beautiful
in appearance, and were developed
after months of research and the eX-
penditure of thousands of dollars. At
present. they are offered exclusively
by Studebaker and its subsidiary,
Pierece-ArrOw.
Balanced and trued to machined
accuracy, Studebalter steel spoke
wheels are of one piece steel con-
struction, and are built from hollow
steel stampings fash welded
throughout into a solid whole for.
extreme sturdiness The spider is
one piece, banishing the possibility
of rafting or squeaking, and making
impossible warping or shrinkage
due to climatic changes.
Under tremendous pressure in
Studebaker's engineering labOrato-
ries, technicians have succeeded in
making steel wheels bend, but they
would not fracture. These new
wheels also have economy appeal,
for, in the event they are bent by
violent impact, they can be straight
ened, eliminating the necessity of re-

Announcement was also made of ;
new 11l inch w. b. chassis added

Apex and State Department
Projects Left Out of
House Bill.

Appropriation of S15,000,000 for the
Federal building program in the Ma
tional Capital and $93,000,000 for the
rest of the country is recommended in
the report filed in the House today by
Chairman Byrns of the House Appro-
priations Committee in reporting the
Treasury-Post Office appropriation bill.
Specific limitations in the bill pro-
hibit use of any of the appropriation
for remodeling the old State Depart
ment Building or for beginning work on
the so-called Apex Building in the Mall
Triangle, which will probably be as
signed to the Federal Trade CommlS-
sion.

In explaining the recommended ap-
preparation for public buildings, Repre-
sentative Byrns said:
THE total amount recommended Tor

for the construction, maintenance, re-
pair, operation and equipment of pub

$l2, ,785,8
THE appropriations for mechanical
equipment of buildings, vaults and
safes, operating force for buildings, fur
niture for buildings. and operating sup
plies all show substantial increases over
1882 due entirely to new buildings an
ticipated to be placed in commission
during the next fiscal year. The est1-
mates were based upon the completion
of 1873 new buildings during the year,
a number which it now appears is likely
to be minimum and very probably will
be exceeded.
"A decrease Of 81, ,469, ,780 under 1892
is shown in the items for special prof.
ects such as the new vault for the
Treasury Department and other spe-
cial items of nonrecurring character.
decrease of $5,000,000 is likewise
shown on account of purchase of prop
erty in Washington as sites for new
public buildings, no item of a corre-
spending character being requested for
1888. Decreases are also found under
1882 In the amounts for temporary
rentals, minor remodeling of buildings,
and repairs and preservation, in the
latter two of which the reduction re-
suits largely from the occupancy of new
buildings.

GASOLINE SMUGGLING PATROL
PROPOSED ON VIRGINIA BORDER
State Seeks Prevent Bootegging of Washington Fuel
Due Tax Dferentia1

A 24-hour border patrol may be es-
tablished to prevent bootlegging OF
gasoline from the District to Virginia,
where the tax is cents a gallon in
stead of 2 cents as in Washington, 1t
was indicated today In dispatches from
Richmond
The problem has been taken under
consideration by Gov. Pollard and the
Virginia State motor vehicle division.
Legislative action may be demanded.
Meanwhile a study of the situation has
been instituted.
Paul E. Hadlick of the American
Petroleum Institute was the first to
suggest the need of a patrol between
the District and Virginia. He said a
100000 oil company in Washington
could make S1,000,000 by unlawful
operation In Virginia. He pointed to
laws enacted by Pennsylvania and other
States which lost revenue by gasoline
smuggling.
Under tentative plans, every road
leading from washington to Virginia
would be patroled and suspicious trucks
would be inspected Particular atten-
ton also would be paid to remote

The American, British, French and

The debate just ended, Mr.. Henderson
said, revealed both the formidable ma

and common desire to achieve success
which gave rise to some degree of con-
