racketeering which has worked 50 sue
cessfully in our larger cities has shown
a tendency to spread out into smaller
places, and We have no reason to think
that any community Is immune to
this danger. In this field an ounce
of prevention Is worth a pound of
cure. Once organized crime gains
strangle hold on any community, it
is hard to break. If there should hap
pen to be operating in your city an
organized liquor racket, and change
in the prohibition law makes its opera
tions improbable, you may find 1t has
turned to other forms of racketeering
less palatable to the average citizen.
Policeman Knows
Now. what conclusion is to be drawn
from all this? 1t is that whether we
have clean and decent cities through
out the land, where a man can have
about his own affairs in peace and
safety. depends on the people of the
several communities, and not on some
agency or bureau a thousand miles
away in the city Of Washington. The
man who really knows what is going
on in a community is the policeman
on the beat. In all the police forces
of our cities honest men overwhelm-
ingly outnumber the corrupt. They
will do their duty If given a chance,
but they take their cue from those
higher up. The governing officials
must be sound.
The people Of any community enjoy
ing universal suffrage have Just the
sort of public officials they choose
to have, and the majority Of the
people in every community want good
government, so why do they so often
fail to get it? It is the old story
of the organized minority against the
/, Indifferent unorganized majority. Or
ganized and militant minorities pro-
ceed to our legislative bodies and often
obtain what they seek. In municipal
affairs the forces Of lawlessness and
i corruption are organized and active,
! the decent majority often apathetic.
! The exposure of graft and corruption
| in municipal affairs often meets with
cynical indifference. A fearless and
| independent press is an invaluable as
| set to any city in the battle for sup
preston of crime.
The cause of law and order and
decent municipal government rests with
| the people of our cities. To look to
the Federal Government as primarily
| responsible in such matters is to dis
, regard not only the spirit but the letter
of the Constitution, to shirk local re-
sponsibility and to overlook the primary
| duty of the States and municipalities.
Organized criminal gangs must be dealt
| with by local authority.
The conditions in our great cosmo-
| politan areas are not to be cured by
the Federal Government or even by the
State Government, but by the munich
| pal government. Municipal authorities
have thousands of police where the
Federal Government has few. Local
| police and city officials have fund
| of knowledge about the operations and
affiliations of criminal gangs in their
communities, which Federal agents, sent
| into the field, could not acquire in
months. At the present time we are
so absorbed in the national distress be-
cause of the business depression that

our large cities to vigorous action for
the elimination of organized crime. The
business depression will end some time.
But the task of suppressing organized
criminal rackets will remain with us.
Could Be Wiped Out.
II business concerns engaged in sup
plying food, clothing and other necessi-
saries Of life are forced to pay tribute to
racketeers, the added cost of the buSi-
ness must be passed on to the ultimate
consumer It is the average citizen
who suffers most from these conditions.
It is essential that public opinion
be focused In the right direction and
that we realize the Federal Govern
ment cannot be placed in a position
efficiently to deal with general crime
conditions without amendments to our
Constitution effecting fundamental
changes in our system Of government,

Nancy Tells Arnold He Is Not To
 Be Tied To Her Apron Strings
 Nancy and Arnold Page were the last to arrive. Jimmy>and Grace had been at the door when Sue answered the knock.
 Nancy had been waiting for Arr mold when he came back from making arrangements for a license.
 Darling, you're gorgeous" he said boyishly when he saw her.. ''Oh my dear. ." His voice caught a little. Nancy went over to him, put her arms around him, and drew his face down to hers.
 Sure you aren't sorry you're marrying a. ..a...
 Nancy placed a firm restraining white hand over his lips.
 Don't say it." she said. You're grandi"
 For the briefest fraction of second she remembered the young CT man who had walked so quickly away, through the gathering dark ness of sweet spring night, so slowly. And there was the tapping of a crutch.
 T won't let you be sorry you married me-" he said fervently.
 "I'll never be-" she told him. "Never, for asminute." ~ You are very sure?"
 Darling, of course I'm sure!"
 Tt will be wonderful to have you there. always, Nancy" he said.
 "Yes-I was thinking that, too"
 But she was thinking more than that, People, especially people whose lives had gone their own re- spective ways for so many years, and people who had strong indi- vidualsities of their own, couldn't lose them. .. wouldn't want to lose them. If they did, their interest for each other would cease. No man really liked to think that he was woman's whole reason for exist ence. that all her interests took root in him. It smothered him. He wanted clean wind blowing .... he wanted freedom. Whether he used that freedom or not, and how he used it, depended on the woman.
 Yet-perhaps there were men who did want women to tangle themselves around them.Yet even those men who did must feel stifled imprisoning now and then. She thought for second of very young brides who promised to love, honor and cherish Suddenly she said aloud.
 The wedding ceremony should be amended. Besides should prom ise to keep themselves interesting! That is, if they want their hus- bands to stay interested"
 You needn't worry, Nancy. You cant be any oher way" Arnold told her indulgently.
 ''Of course want you 10 see me all the time. . to be with me all the time," she went on. more to herself than to him. "But there will be times when you won't want to bs. And when you don't. don't ever feel bound! Promise me that. Mora than anything I should hate to have you pleasing me-when it bores you.'

Childhood Fears May Grow Into Adult Terrora

Childhood Fears May Grow Into Adult TerrOrs Y T cannot really enjoy anything" said the young woman, "because l have a sort of fear or terror be- hind it."
 "Most of us have a certain heav- mess of heart we can't shake off,' replied.

Maybe I'm what they call a moral coward. Perhaps I cant face life. But really I never en- joy anything. No matter how happy ought to be no matter what's going on, party, or new clothes or-or spring. have a heavy heart. I know I am ab- normal for some reason or otheri" Rare or Common I had my doubts about that and said so. Is she really abnormal. this unhappy young person who SohhOe cSSbt tO ibHu joy in anything she does? On the contrary, if the truth were known, I believe she is more common than uncommon. I believe there arc thousands of adults and children of dread, or heaviness, no matter what happens.
 Psychologists tell us that it is 0 O ,I, man lived in constant terror of his life. Perhaps. But do all wild animals live with dread in birds happy even when they sing :? Is there always the shadow of the imaginary hawk or eagle over their lives?
 Shocks of Childhood
 cannot think so. Weariness and sudden alarm cannot be ctassed with this utter terror of living. They are different things altogether.
 Again 1t may be caused by ex- treme ego, where introspection Is daily habit and the world TO- tates around self. Usually the introvert is not happy. The sensi- tive soul can never forget himself and ever imagines trouble-he really jumps ahead to seize 1t and bring it to his heart.
 But I cannot believe this is the answer either. I believe it lies outside of either personality or heredity. I believe it Is the re- suit of a succession of shocks in early childhood. It Is fear in its most terrible form.
 Books tell us that we are born with certain indescribable fears, including that of death.
 Don't Brighten Children It proves no point particularly concerning these terror-ridden people. 1t is hardly conceivable that some would have it in such an exaggerated sense while others never know what it means at all.
 A little child frightened of his father may develop a perpetual terror, or too frequently fright ened by things he doesn't under stand and forced to face them. l think it is more likely to be some- thing he has to live with than the occasional fright of storm or an animal or the dark. Deep impress sions are caused by repetition. This Is why think it important that early childhood be happy Happy, simple, quiet normal, un' complicated and free of excite ment. We never know tha Frankenstein is being formed ir ! embryo in small hearts to rise and haunt them later.

O-Yes. War simply is not in woman's psychology. Furthermore, judgment and wisdom in women is as great, on the average, as in men.

 (2)-Yes, if it be real love. Mod ern psychology agrees with St. Paul when he said, Love bearteh all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things" Love believes when it knows it can't believe, trusts when it knows it can't trust, hopes against all hope. Love is utterly irrational. The moment you try to make it logical and subject it to common sense, it ceases to be real love.

REACH ACCORD
ON SUGAR PACT
WaI|ace's Signature All That
Is Needed for StabiIiza-
tion Program. ae
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A complete agreement was reached
today on the sugar sterilization agree
ment and its announcement was con-
sidered probable within a few hours.
Officials said it had received the ap-
proval of President Roosevelt and the
State Department and signature by Sec
retary of Agriculture Wallace was vir-
tually all that was needed to set up the
agreements intricate mechanism.
DR.. John Lee Coulter of the Tariff
Commission took the agreement this
morning to Secretary Wallace
Coulter was accompanied by George
N. Peek, administrator of the farm act
and State Department official.
Provides Reserve Corporation.
One important provision in the pact
would give President Roosevelt, or some
official he designates, the power to
raise or lower Cuba's tentative quota,
dependent upon circumstances which
may arise.
The agreement would limit the
amount of raw sugar which the produc-
ing interests might supply the domestic
market to around 100000 raw tons an
nually. 1t would be In effect for three
years, retroactive to July /.
Those connected with its framing
said there was provision for a sugar
reserve corporation. which might alb
sOrb and hold off the market for the
time being any excess sugar due to the
raising of quotas.
Sugar men who have participated in
negotiations with Coulter, farm act Of
ficials and others, said their representa-
tives had signed and that some Of them
already had gone home.
Philippine Quota Raised.
In the final draft the quantity OF
sugar which the Philippines may sup
ply to the domestic market annually
was raised to 100000 tons. In the
previous agreements, which were dis
carded, the Philippine quota was set at
around 955 900 tons yearly.
Coulter said it was his understand
ing that the agreement was acceptable
not only to the President and the State
Department, but to the War and In
terror Departments, which are con-
cerned because the Philippines. Hawaii
the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico art
participants in the agreement.
A Sugar Sterilization Board, COM
posed of nine members, would execute
the agreement, subject to the super
vision of Secretary Wallace and the
| President.

T0BUY SURPRISES
Army Fiscal Expert Will Di-
rect Distribution of Food
to Needy.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Organization Of a non-profit ccrpor-
alton to centralize the administration
program for purchasing surplus farm
products and distributing them to the
needy was planned today by the De-
partment Of Agriculture.
Maj. Robert M. Littlejohn, fiscal ex-
pert of the Army's general staf, will
direct the program under supervision
Of William Westervelt, director Of mar
keting for the A. A. A., and Chester
Davis, director of production.
Whether all the purchases Of sur
pluses should be made in open mar
kets or limited to farmers who agree to
production control programs remained
to be determined
It was reported that in some in
stances. open market purchases will
be relied upon, but in others, particu-
larly dairy products, the buying plans
may be coupled definitely with the
A. A. A. production control program.
The corporation would be organized
under District of Columbia laws. Dis
tribution of the food will be handled
under the direction of the Emergency
Relief Administration with expenditures
tentatively limited to s75,000,00o.
The extent OF purchases will depend
on amounts that will be needed for
relief. George N Peek, farm admin
istrator. explained that proceeds Of the
processing taxes in some instances will
be added to relief funds to make the
program effective.
