A STOP TO KIDNAPPING

Reports indicate that the full attention of the
federal administration will now be turned to the
evils and cures of racketeering especially those
of dope peddling and kidnapping.
For the past thirteen years the liquor business
has been haven for organized crime OF all types.
Murder and robbery have been an everyday mat
tr and corruption has thrived under the condi-
tions brought about by prohibition.
The administration has foreseen that if the
eighteenth amendment is repealed criminals for
merly occupied in the transportation and sale of
liquor must turn to other fields Increase in dope
peddling is anticipated, and the number of recent
kidnappings indicates that that activity will ap-
peal to many ex-bootleggers as an especially
1nunerative occupation.
Believing that an ounce of prevention is much
more valuable than pound of cure, the federal
government is not going to give the racketeers and
criminals an opportunity to get settled in these
fields. Already plans are underway to fight these
new nenaces.
Out of fifteen major kidnapping cases in the
last two years, but six convictions have been OBJ
tanned, one of them death sentence In the other
cases the abductors were severely punished with
long term sentences But this will not be enough.
Kidnappers consider their job an easy one. So
great is the anxiety for the welfare of the stolen
member of the household that it is estimated that
less than half of the kidnapping cases are ever
reported to the police, who often considered as
mutual enemies. Over half a million dollars was
paid to the criminals in the cases mentioned. How
many millions of dollars have been paid secretly
cannot be known.
To the dope peddlers and ''snatchers'' the
phrase Crime does not pay'' has been humor-
GUS one. With few exceptions they have made
it pay and pay we'll. The Roosevelt-C Cummings
hibition Bureau by the new Department of In
vestgation will have it's job the task of recon
dltioning the criminal mind to the proper appre-
citation Of the phrase.

REGISTRATION CLOSED

It will perhaps be surprise to many to know
that the registration books have been closed until
after the special election August 20. Many citi-
zens of the state and county have become eligible
to vote since the last genral election. Ordinarily,
they are well-informed as to the time that the
registration books close This year, however the
county officials made no mention of the fact until
few short days before the actual closing of the
books, and many, otherwise qualified, will not have
a vote at this election

Bible Chautauqua Will
Continue Another Week

F. G. Young, who has for a number
of years been an instructor in Biblical
religion and is now connected with the
Yakima Valley Academy, at Granger,
has for the past two weeks been con-
Quoting a series of lectures here on the
prophecies of the Bible. 1.-THE Christian
world is not taking the Bile nearly
as seriously as it should says Mr..
Young. II am convinced that if the
scriptures were taken for what they
actually say Christians would all re-
alize that our present perplexing world
conditions are not to be charged to
the world war, to Japan, to the 18th
amendment, or to Herbert Hoover, nor
will they be successfully overcome by
the New Deal of President Roosevelt;
but that they are all unnerving symp-
toms of the Last Days. Instead of
lamenting so much the evils of yester-
day, we should be getting ready for
the woes of tomorrow which are going
| to be inconceivably worse, for all these
are the beginning of sorrow.
"The most distressing thing in the
whole situation is that so many people
profess to believe what the Bible
teaches, while so few really know what
| it actually contains, nor do they make
much effort to find out The large
majority hope to be saved by faith
without knowledge or effort on their
part; but note what the Bible says:
The kingdom of heaven suffereth
violence, and the violent take it by
force.'"
Mr.. Young plans to be in White
Bluffs another week. He lectures each
evening of the week except Friday and
Saturday The meetings, which start
about 8:15, are open to the public.

SPECULATION BARRED

Officials Of the Grand Coulee power project
wasted no time in informing the public that there
was to be no speculation in land at the new town
site at the dam. It is wise move for speculation
in land could easily shatter the project and drive
away the very people the project is planned to
help.
Speculation has been the chief factor in the
wreckage Of every irrigation district that has been
forced to the wall, and has nearly wrecked most
of the irrigated sections of the state.
Land s only intrinsic value lies in it's ability to
produce crops. When the purchase price of the
land is set at high figure in order that the spec
ulator, who has put nothing into the land, may
make big profit, the ultimate buyer of that land
finds the load far too heavy. The ratio between

very heavy goods, or fur, these inner
buttons should always be used, lest the

Buttons should always have a little
freedom Of monon, or play, as this is
termed. Unless purely for ornament
buttons should never be sewed down
SO tight az to hinder their usefulness
as fasteners. The shanks ON buttons
permit such play. Buttons with holes
In them should be given similar play
by sewing them Q tribe loosely to the

times tightly about the threads which

The old recommended method Of
allowing sufhcient thread between but
ton and cloth was to start the thread
with q knot on the right side OF the
goods Just beneath where the button
was to 60 and after the first stitch
was taken, fastening the button down,
a pin was run under 1t. This pin re-
manned until the button was sewed on,

wound about the stitches, thus making
q shank Of the threads, allowing Just

Everyday Psychology

After all, the human mind Is known
In terms of human activity. What you
do, Is 1t Is seen by others, is an
exposition Of how you act internally
These internal actions are called
thoughts.
It seems that strict adherence to
professional or vocational routine tends
to narrow the stream of thoughts The
man who has no avocation comes to
have Q correspondingly narrow outlook
upon life. What Is worse, he tends to
develop prejudices which estrange him
from his fellows, because he Is a spe-
cialist in his internal actions.
In recent years the mental hy-
gienists have been talking about what
they call the principle OF avocational
rehabilitation. Their advice Is this:

FLAYS BANKERS

Conference Already a Failure,
Delegates Should Pack
Bags, Declares G. B. S.
BY CHARLES A. SMITH
Copyright, 1888, by International
SQFviOa


AYOT ST. LAWRENCE, HERT-
YORKSHIRE, England, June %
L(IN.S0 The World Economic
Conference has been mistitled. 1t
should be known as the world
tdiotic conference"
In a devastating attack upon
international parleys, world
statesmen, and bankers, George
Bernard Shaw let loose his
yitriol today.
Might as Well Go Home
Discussing the parley with In
ternational News Service in an
exclusive interview, he ripped
and tore through the delibera-
tionS, accused statesmen of ignor-
ance and bankers of greed, and
strongly urged that the delegates
pack up their luggage and start
for home Immediately. He said:
"They might just as well go
home now, for the conference
has failed-it failed before it
began.
Seated in the garden of his
beautiful home in HertfordShire,
Shaw expressed his absolute con-
viction the parley is headed for
blank failure. He said:
Nothing can come of it ex-
cept recriminationS and worse
confusion.
'The only people to benefit
from this museum meeting will
be the delegates, who have had
. jolly good trip and a round
of entertainments for which
the taxpayers will have to foot
the bill"
AS Shaw displayed a wide
knowledge of the events which
have transpired since the confer
ence got under way, this CORE
spondent took the liberty of ask
ing why he was so convinced the
deliberations could not result in
world salvation. He replied:
"This isn't an economic con-
ference. Its real name should
be the World IdiOtic Conference.
"It's impossible for it to do
Anything because there's no
body attending it who seems to
now what it's about.
TALK A LOT AND HOPE
''It seems to me statesmen
could do a lot better by at
tempting to solve their own ma
tiOnal difficulties in their own
countries, but apparently its the
custom today when countries
get in hopeless mess for
statesmen to say: Let's have
an international conference to
see what the deuce is going to
happen
"Then they talk a lot and
sit back hoping for the best.
It's all wrong. These prob
LENS purely concern individual
countries and individual re-
forms are neceSSary-PreSident
Roosevelt is proving this.
"The evil of international
conferences is plainly shown
when within a half hour after
getting down to business this
conference proved there was not
a man among the delegates
who wasn't thinking individ-
ually instead of internatiOn-
ally"
