GANG MURDERS /. VICTIM AS HE i TRIES ESCAPE
Shooting Occurs on Street
 with Children Play + ing at Scene
SHAVING CHALLENGE
 TO DRIVE ON GUNMEN
Judge Appeals for Volun- ters- Issues Slogan
 for His Bench

CHICAGO, H., July 27.- Aroused by what is cOnsid- cred a distinct challenge in their new drive on gunmen, the police today searched for three men who put "Angel Face" Willie Carr to death, disregarding the fact that children were at play on the sidewalks opposite the shoot ing scene.
 One gunman caught up with Angel Face" as he ran along the street, pressing the muzzle of a shotgun at his head and fired. Angel Face" dropped dead and the assassin and two companions fled.
 The shooting came at the time when Chief Justice John Prystalski was mobilizing additional jurists for war on gunmen occasioned by the recent staying of three po- licemen, one of whom was shot to death in a court room.
 The Judge appealed for volunteer judges to serve during the summer vacation with the slogan, mo mol lycoddling of gunmen."
 ANOTHER BLOW STRUCK
 CHICAGO, H., July 27. A blanket indictment charging Dr. Benjamin Squires, Aaron Sapiro, noted lawyer, and 21 others with conspiracy charges, including bomb ings and window smashing in re- straint of trade, has been returned by the Grand Jury.
 The indictment is regarded as the States first frontal attack on racketeering violence it brought to legitimate industries in Chicago
 Sapiro was the leader in an early cooperative marketing move ment in the United States. Squires was formerly arbiter in the clean ing and dyeing industry, now en- gagged in similar work in the Penn- sylvania hosiery trade.

 This brings up the question as to what reiation medicinal liquor has wILn the eighteenth amendment. Is inUre sickness expected after repeal?

NEED OF SCYTHE

A southern newspaper tells this story:
 The postmaster in a certain town in Alabama has very good friend postmaster is a Republican and the friend is a Democrat. These two gentlemen are forever trying to get good jokes on each other. A few weeks ago the postal department issued a new kind of postage stamp, bearing the picture of three men one of them represents agriculture, another capital, another industry of of all kinds. These three are shown going arm in arm under the NRA emblem. The Democrat came in and wanted a stamp. The postmaster showed it out to him, with this re- mark: See what the Democrats have done for this country? They've taken the picture of Washington the father of our country, off the stamps, and substituted this in- stead Isn't that a shame? The Demo- crat scratched his head minute and looked at the stamp. Then he had to answer; "Yes, sir, that is bad" !" Then noticing that the figure repre- senting agriculture carried a scythe, he added, "I see here one of these fellers is totin' a grass blade. won der if he's got that thing along to cut all that grass Hoover kept talk ing about was going to grow in the streets if Roosevelt was elected"

A LONG LIST OF ELIGIBLEs

Seward has a number of hand some bachelors who are well fixed in this worlds goods, and with the large number of women writing to this paper inquiring for soulmates is is a crying shame that a morato- rum cannot be declared and man take a dozen wives or so, until their longing for Alaska has subsided.
 While the letters of many of these inquiries indicate high blood pressure and an ardent desire to rush into matrimony without proper qualifications, there might be one or two in the bunch who could swing shovel in case of necessity. A wife used to be a helpmate, a woman who did four-fifths of the work, and put the rest of her time in raising kids and poultry, and look ing after the fires. Civilization has not improved the modern woman, who wants her breakfast in bed and a thousand dollar income. In case our correspondents believe they can fill the bill and are willing to take sourdough for better or worse, (mostly worse.) we have a choice matrimonial list of eligible bache- lors, guaranteed to bathe regular and change clothes at least once every six months, which will be mailed for a postage stamp. The Gateway, however. desires it under stood that it is not responsible for damage, nor does it guarantee pro- perty or title. We deliver the goods on the principle of caveat emptOr. Seward Gateway.

REFORESTATION ARMY ENJOYS
 TREMENDOUS APPETITE

A check-up made by the War De- partment for Robert Fechner, direc- tor of Emergency Conservation Work discloses that the Reforestation Army enjoys tremendous appetite each day. The figures show that the 300,000 members of the Civilian Conservation Corps consume 1,042 F carloads of bacon, beef, coffee and other foodstuffs every thirty days.
 According to quantity this amounts to 1,125,00O pounds of ba- con, 5,625,OOO pounds of beef, g. 0OO,0OO eggs, 5,625,O0O pounds of potatoes, 2,25O,OO0 pounds of pork, 6.75O.OOO pounds of flour, 1,125. 1000 pounds of coffee, 2,S12,5OO pounds of sugar, and 1,125,O0O pounds of onions.
 Statisticians disclose that it would require 2S1,250 chickens, 186,O00 hogs and 9,375 steers to furnish the Lief, bacon, lard and eggs needed Der a thirty day period.
 Reports also show that the food c. ..sumed in an atmosphere of healthful outdoor work has greatly improved the physical condition of the members of the Civilian Con- servation Corps, to say nothing of building up their morale. The aver age weight of the men in the Corps

Delivered with oratorical fervor, the words of the Secretary doubtless had a high and lofty sound to his immediate auditors. But in cold type they are the reverse of inspiring. Heaven knows this land has faults, shortcomings and tendencies that endanger it's future in a most seri- ous way. But continuance of the rugged individualism" of the fla thers of the republic certainly is not among them.
 United States Generous
 Furthermore, there is, as a matter of practice, no clash whatever be- tween such individualism and proper concern for ones neighbor. Intelli- gent individualism compels concern for the welfare of others and the whole history of the people of the United States has been featured by generosity in impulse and practice and by fidelity to the spirit of fair play and helpfulness.
 Concern For World Neighbors
 Indeed the genuineness of the con cern of Americans for their neigh bors has been an outstanding char acteristic of the breed in both their domestic and international relation ships, and. the extent to which it has been carried in the latter field in re- cent years has added considerably to the present economic troubles.
 When MT. Wallace urges deser- tion of American individualism, he is not advocating policy of progress and strength; he is urging a policy of weakness and surrender.
 Individuals working together. in voluntary and free cooperation built this country. Its future as a free land depends upon the ability of it's people to continue along those lines as far as it is at all possible amid the complexities a dense population and an intricate civilization create. If they cannot do so, the republic as such is doomed as every other re- public in history has been doomed as soon as courageous, self-respect- ing, enlightened and rugged indivi- dualism has lost it's grip.
 Experiment In Freedom
 Surrender of that individualism today in favor of some form of com- munistic or Fascist substitute would mean the failure and utter collapse of the great experiment in freedom started by our ancestors in 1776. And all the euphemisms about "co- operation" and concern for ones neighbor that can be invented by MT. Wallace or by anybody else, will not alter that fact.
 Such a surrender will mean an end of personal freedom and rights, it will mean an end of the sov- ereignty of the 4S states. it will mean the submersion of Congress, it will mean the commencement of socialistic or imperialistic autocracy, and the decadence of American man hood and izenship.-Detroit Free Press.

For more than 30 years San Francisco's policemen submitted to jibes of contemporaries in nearby cities with commendable stoicism.
