THE THIRD DEGREE

MoRE than two years ago the wickersham
A'A commission reported the practice Of the
third degree common in ten out Of fifteen
American cities it investigated, and denounced
it as a brutal, lawless and inefficient weapon
Of policemen.
Now committee Of lawyers and experts
three of whom were Wickersham investigators,
offer practical program to combat this evil.
They urge: % That doctors reports on the
physical condition Of each prisoner at the
time Of arrest be made at police stations;
% detention Of prisoners in large cities
should be outside the control of the police;
80 exact reports should be filed as to the
time of arrest arrival at the station, all other
steps in handling of prisoners; (4) arrests
should be made only after sworn police state
ments charging specific offenses, thus Fore
ing the gathering of evidence before arrest;
80 an official stenographer should be pres
ent at all examinations of prisoners
Besides these administrative changes the
committee urged a law requiring immediate
arraignment Of a prisoner. Damage suits
against offending police are recommended as
a wholesome restraining influence. The pro-
posal to exclude confessions as evidence was
frowned upon, since many confessions are
legally obtained.
This report is timely. Recent revolving
crimes have aroused the country to a de-
termination to stamp out crime, particularly
such hideous crimes as kidnapping. 1t is easy
to argue that the end justifes the means. But
crime by criminals does not justify crime by
the state.
Those inclined to justify the torture of
prisoners should be reminded that in England,
where crime Is most unhealthy, there is not
a record of such practices in twenty years.
Furthermore, the federal government, which
is leading the nation now in the capture of
its public enemies, rarely uses this barbaric
expedient
If the British police and American federal
officers can get along without the third degree,
so can city police.

PHILIPPINE INDEPENDENCE

TINE Filipino independence issue evidently
is going to be with us again this win
ter. Both houses of the Filipino legislature
have turned down the Hawes- Cutting act, and
the whole problem thus is tossed back in the
lap of congress.
The Filipinos objected TO the HawerCut
ting act chiefly because it seemed to promise
the form of independence without the sub
stance. What they want is a straightout in
dependence measure, with no strings attached.
If we are going to let them go, it would seem
that quick and complete severance would be
the logical way to do it.
1t is more than possible that this is just the
kind of measure the coming congress will pass.
If So the country at last will redeem a solemn
pledge which was ignored for more than a
quarter century.

Open Air Relief for VaricOse Veins

tissues. If the varicose veins haze
lasted a long time, this fluid tends
to thicken the tissues, and the re-
moval Of the affected vessels will
not relieve the condition.
Specialists, therefore, recommend
the wearing of supports in the form
Of light elastic bandages which now
are available through various drug
stores and supply houses.
1t is not difficult to wear such a
bandage all the time, and in the
course Of several weeks most of the
thickening Of the tissues will dis
appear.
There are treatments for varicose
veins by the injection Of certain
substances that destroy the lining
Of the blood vessels and cause them
to disappear. These have relieved
the condition in many cases.
But you should realize that this
method simply removes the dilated
vessel and does not cure the con-
dition which caused the varicose
veins.

THWARTING ESCAPE

TNHERE is little doubt that the great ma
jority Of Americans heartily will indorse
Attorney-General Homer Cummings plan
for new federal prison in which the most
vicious and "irredeemable" prisoners can
be isolated. The place chosen for this prison
is Alcatraz island, in San Francisco bay. It
seems to be adapted ideally for such purpose.
Most prisons, unfortunately, are not "es-
cape proof for the really desperate convicts
We have had enough prison breaks in the
last few years to convince us of that. This
island prison ought to be something else
again. Mr.. Cummings is confident that a man
inlmured there would stay there no matter
how great his efforts to get away; and his
confidence seems to be justified.
1t is hard enough in this country to catch
and convict men of the Capone or Kelly type
without having to take chances on seeing them
break loose from their cells Such men ought
to be isolated in prison designed especially to
hold desperadoes.

STOCK MARKET QUESTIONS

p EFUSAL Of the New York Stock Exchange
TO cooperate with the senate investigat
ing committee by asking its members to answer
the committees QUESTIONABLE is unfortunate.
Not because it will suppress information-in-
deed the committee already is resorting to the
alternative method of calling exchange men,
bers by subpoena. 1t is unfortunate because
it gives a suspicious public the impression that
the exchange has much to hide
This certainly is unfair to those exchange
members who have nothing to hide and who
want to cooperate with the investigation. 1t
also is unfortunate because the exchanges re-
fusal may encourage bankers to attempt the
fruitleSS effort of blocking the investigation.
Many members of the exchange must know.
even if its governing board does not that the
vigorous support of the public, congress and
the Roosevelt administration is behind this
investigation The investigation is going to
answer such pertinent questions as these:
Does the exchange operate to the benefit
Of gamblers or investors?
Are the cards stacked?
Do the operators get an unfair cut?
To what extent do market manipulation

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
KING GOALS SUBJECTS

IN all the annals Of the poor no story holds
l. more pathos than the steady pauperization
of soft coal miners families.
Competition from new fuels. labor saving
machinery, but less competition among COM
panies and the depression hit the coal industry
series Of body blows Miners families have
taken the brunt of the suffering Huddled in
the coal coves Of the middle west and near
south, tens of thousands of families have been
forced to accept charity as work days
dwindled or mines shut down
The government is trying to force plan
ming and better working conditions through
the coal code.
But even when prosperity returns there will
be at least 100000 too many miners in the
coal towns
England faced the same problem with her
surplus coal miners. She tried to move them
bodily to colonies in Canada and Australia.
But they wouldn't move. For generations they
and their ancestors had mined coal They
are now on the dole Our own extra miners
families will be on charity for years unless
better way is found. We believe the govern
ment has found a better way.
Interior Secretary Harold Ickes has an
nounced the first of a series of colonization
projects under the Subsistence homesteads"
funds of $25,OOOO0O. Happily we believe, he
has chosen to locate it near Morgantown, w.
Va, the heart of that states coal fields.
The first project calls for colony of 200
families on 100 acres of farm land Modest
houses at $4,000 each will be sold to the home
steaders on twenty-hve-year contracts. Each
home will have a garden plot of two to four
acres A factory for part-time labor will
make Irvine for the postof1ce department.
Vocational training and schooling will be
offered.
Here is a new frontier of escape from
pauperism. 1t lacks the adventurous glamour
of the Old But it is better than charity.

THE LABOR BOARD ACTS

TINE national labor board, under the chair
u manship of Senator Wagner, is making
Roadway in it's effort to settle strikes. Follow
ing initial delays. it has persuaded the Ford
company TO negotiate; it now is taking
strong line in the silk strike and it has forced
a temporary agreement in the Weirton Steel
Corporation strike.
In the latter conflict, involving $4,000 men
in three plants in West Virginia and Ohio, the
company began by refusing to recognize the
authority Of the board. But after some straight
talk from Chairman Wagner, regarding the
recovery law and its enforcement, the men
agreed to return TO work and the employer
agreed to re-employ the strikers without dis
elimination.
The crux Of the agreement is that a plant
election is to be held under supervision of the
national labor board at which the employees
shall be permitted as guaranteed by the pro-
visions Of Section IA of the national recovery
act, to select representatives Of. their own
choosing, and the employers agree to bargain
collectively with the representatives so
elected"
Few things in the recovery program at the
moment are as important as a just and rapid
settlement of strikes before they spread beyond
control The rights Of labor are at stake. But
that is not all. Increased purchasing power Is
also at stake Moreover, employers who are
cooperating with NRA and running close to
the financial edge in doing so, require protec-
ton from unfair competitors who are violating
the labor codes. Some employers also need
protection from unfair labor demands.
Obviously there is no way in which the
public or the government can get at the right
and wrong in any of these industrial disputes
without some official investigating and medi-
ating agency. For that reason President
Roosevelt named the national labor board.
That this board shall function promptly and
efficiently is of the utmost Importance.

M. E. Tracy Says:

THOUGH complicated by experts to furnish
L statesmen with trading points, the issue
now blocking disarmament in Europe is very
simple 1t hinges on Germanys demand for
equality, meaning the right to maintain mill
tary establishment proportionately strong in
comparison to those of other European cClln-
tries.
Germany was deprived of the right to de-
termine the size and character of her military
establishment by the Versailles treaty. Among
other things, she was forbidden to keep stand
ing army of more than 100000 men, to allow en-
istments for a shorter period than twelve years,
to develop reserve forces, to construct war
planes, to possess guns above a certain caliber
to build naval vessels of more than 10000 tons
and to establish forts along the frontier.
AS every one knows, Germany has violated
the treaty in these and other respects especially
since the Nazis came into power, and what's
more, she will continue to do so.
1T is beyond human nature to expect any,
Il thing else. What the allies conceived in
temper, they lack the nerve to enforce. Seek
ing to make themselves safe by holding Ger
many down. they find it necessary to depend
on stupendous program Of preparedness be-
cause OF the extreme fervor of patriotism to
which their il-advised neaSurs have driven her
The excuse for this monumental blunder was
that II Germany were forced to diSarm, other
european countries would be in a position to
disarm Great minds merely made a mistake
The thing did not turn out as they thought or
pretended to think it would
Germany says, Let's quit being hypocrites
We're arming and you know it, You're arning
and we know it. The Versailles treaty doesn't
mean thing today and all of us know it,"
England says. "a contracts contract" Just
as though an English delegation were not in
the United States right now for the purpose
Of scrapping one with regard to war debts
France says, "GermanyS population is third
bigger than mine and if allowed to equality
she can maintain a third bigger army
GERMANY comes back with the implied
" threat that if she is not granted equality
either by permission to increase her military
establishment or by an agreement on the part
Of the allies to reduce theirs she will go right
on arming
The allies answer that if she does, they will
make reprisals under the Versailles treaty.
OF course, everybody is bluff1ng, and because
stall is desired by all sides, we have been drawn
into the mess as peacemaker, with our ambas-
sador at large Norman Davis, running from
one to another trying to rig up some kind of a
compromise which viii at least prevent the
present conference from going completely to
smash
1t is the same old game of trying to preserve
that moth-eaten peace agreement which hasn't
meant much Of anything but trouble evasion
and deceit since the day it vas signed

have a noble, honorable, courageous,
educated Governor, and one as
fair" to one class of people as the
other. Won't you give this adj
ministration a chance? This is an
experiment, and before the Cover
nor's four years are over, you will
recognize him as the outstanding
Governor in the history Of Indiana.
For years, Indiana has had a
black eye, for it was state where
corruption reigned supreme. That
condition is changed today. Indi-
ana is at the peak of national ad-
miration. Scores of letters are be-
ing received from other states, ask
ing for copieeS of our laws, facts
and figures of the reorganization
plan, that our courageous legislature
passed during the last session.
This legislature will go down in
history as the most important and
constructive legislature in the his
tory Of our state. Taylor Groninger
was not aware of these facts when
he attacked the state administra-
ton at the Irvington Republican
Club last week. Of course the Re
publican press gave long write
up, but it failed to account for the
small crowd"
We don't need to read the news
papers in Indianapolis for facts
and figures, this state administra-
ton speaks for itself, and is one of
which to be proud There are
other ways to reach the public and
more fair methods" I refer to

A NEW EXPERIMENT

ID EPEAL of the eighteenth amendment. ar
N irving with a speed few people in Amer
lea thought possible does not simply mark
the end of a great experiment. 1t also marks
the beginning of a new one and it is going
to be very easy for us to make just as many
mistakes with the new as we did with the old.
For this reason the Rockefeller plan for
liquor control is an extremely valuable thing
Whether or not we accept the solution it Of
fers for the various phases Of the liquor prob
lem, it at least serves to remind us that SIM
g. ply repeating the prohibition law is only half
of the job.
We have tried one method of meeting the
liquor issue and we have found that it didn't
work Now we must try some other method;
and the suggestions in the Rockefeller plan
can be very useful in helping us to make up
our minds.
The best point, perhaps, is the one which
the Rockefeller plan emphasizes most strong
ly-that it would be wise to make clear
distinction between the kind of control that
is needed for beer and wine and the kind
that is needed for hard liquor
1t is suggested, in fact, that the sale of
DtSi W d4lAlOSb ulISSIAlCISu, anu tl1dI very
liberal rules be set up to govern the sale of
wine. On the other hand, very stringent
regulations for the sale of whisky and other
distilled liquors are recommended
Let beer. in other words be sold by al
most anybody who cares to get a license.
Let wine be served freely with meals in no.
tells, restaurants and cafes. Continue the
sale of hard liquor to few carefully chosen
retailers, for consumption in the buyers own
home.
Needless to say, no such plan as this Is
going to satisfy everybody The prohibition
list will find it too liberal; the man who looks
back fondly to the old days will find it TOO
strict
But it does serve as an excellent point of
departure for discussions of the liquor con-
. troll problem. 1t recognizes the perfectly OBJ
vious fact that beer and wine present one
kind of problem, while distilled liquors pre-
sent another.
Probably We shall have to spend a long
time experimenting before we find truly
satisfactory control plan. The important
thing is that we get busy now studying what
kind of plan looks most sensible. The Rookie
Teller report can help us very greatly in that
study.

have just read your timely
editorial on Keep Cool" and wish
to congratulate you on your in
telligent attitude on this serious
question confronting the people
of the world. The power to keep
our own country out OF this i'm
pending cataclysm lies to a great
extent with the press. If other
editors will take your fearless and
fair stand, we may keep out of
the entanglementS which en-
meshed us before. If we are to
uphold our great Presidents pro-
gram to keep us a real democracy,
we must grid ourselves against
European imperialism by keeping
a "hands-off" attitude, and it is
up to the editors of our nation, to
a large extent, to form public
opinion to keep out of war and
still maintain our dignity as ma
ton. More power to you.

NRA AND THE CONSTITUTION

T AWYERS, stepped in the law and the
~ precedents, who regard the Constitution
as rigid thing, are finding no comfort in the
courts as they endeavor to attack the national
recovery program.
Federal Judge St. Sure heard the validity
of the agricultural adjustment act contested
in the California peach packers suit. He said
ITO adopt the view that the Constitution
is static and that it does not permit change
from time to time to take such steps as may
be deemed reasonably appropriate to the eco
nomic preservation of the country is to insist
that the Constitution was created containing
the seeds of its own destruction.
This court" the Judge continued, will not
subscribe to such view"

tention for lifetime Of days. He
is the very essence Of mystery be-
cause his handicaps are so tremen-
dous and his possibilities so bound
less.
1t is comparatively easy to find
out what lies behind the clever and
facile conversation Of the individual
who never bores you. But it is
something else again to disc or
that spark that is hidden within the
dark cavernS Of the less intelligent
mind, to track down to its secret
inarticulate depths that thing which
is his funbling, yearning spirit.
What We usually mean when We
say We are bored with some one
is. that We are no longer interested
in the responses Of another to life.
And that, it seems to me, proves
that We ourselves lack intellectual
insight.
