GrouchineSs-A Habit

GrOuch1neSS-AH HABIT
Being grouchy in the morn
ing is a habit, to a great ex-
tent.
With no special reason for
the frame of mind, the crouch
permits a tendency in that di-
rection to grow until it seems
to be the natural thing.
How much happier your home
might be, and what a beneficial
change it would make in your
life, if you'd try being good-na-
tured, instead Of that morning
cross person.
You may not sleep well, but
why punish the family for that?
And you don't do yourself
any good by being Grabbed in

Exterminate RacketeerS:
A Challenge to the Nation
By James T. Williams, T.

Organized crime - racke-
teering of all sorts-is cost
ing the American people in
these days Of economic dis
tress more than one thousand
million dollars a year.
It is at war with the peo-
ple's government in city,
State and Nation. 1t is
picking the pockets Of wage
Garner and wage-payer
North, East, South and
West.
And of all "the foes of
our own household, against
which that great American,
Theodore Roosevelt, warned
his countrymen, the racke-
teer is the most cowardly
and prosperous gangster
now at large.
Give the Facts
To the People
By way of "putting first
things first" Senator Cope
land of New York has called
upon the Senate to put the
Nation on notice that the
Federal Government is 60
ing to lead the governments
of the several States in a
fight to the finish against
racketeering.
The Copeland resolution
provides for the appoint
ment by the Senate Of a
special committee to inves-
tigate the crime Of racke-
teering that the astounding
facts in this case against
government may be laid be-
fore ''the great jury of the
people. B"
This is not only a proper
duty of a representative
body as the Senate is sup
posed to be. It is an i'm
perative duty, because the
Senate, like the House, is in
tended to be "the eyes and
the voice" OF the people.
And as no less a student
of American Government
than oodrow Wilson
painted out; "the country
must remain in embar-

Of the very affairs which it

a jury yesterday, were to make a
motion for new trial
In the motion are IA para

Should the court decide that
the grounds are not sufficient on
which to grant q new trial. il is
expected that Judge Browne will
pass sentence after denying the
motion.
Sentence in this case cannot. Il
is said By attorneys, be other than
death, by electrocution. rs the
jury in returning the verdict made
no recommendation for mercy.
