Minneapolis, in a rare sense, has
been the musical center of the United
States for the week that ends tomor-
row.
1t would have been a misfortune in
deed, if among the many groups that
have had a part in this week of must
cal presentation, the Negro group had
made no contribution. The situation
was saved however thru the insistence
and energy of one woman, a member
of our racial group: Mrs. Katherine
L. Smith, whose own musical accom-
plishments have brought her wide per-
sonal acquaintance and contact with
the musical personnel of this city,
whose membership in the Twin City
Choirmasters' Association, an auxil-
iary of the National Federation of
Music Clubs, made it possible to in
clude among the contributing chorus
members of her own organization.
On Monday night at the formal
opening of the festival at the North
rop Memorial Hall, 500 members of
Twin City choirs were massed upon

Mitchell's former wife and his
daughter reside in the Twin Cities.
His rise to one of the best known

Americans to thinking. He declared that ne had

senators expect this money to come from! IL puz-
zles me-" said Mr.. Glass; "to determine how IL IS
going to help any state to levy taxes upon 1t, I'M
pound the money in the federal treasury ana
then have it doled out by federal minions"
The senator went further when ne SAID: II

struction Finance Corporatn. There has been no
reconstruction. 1t has been destruction corpo-
ration It has merely postponed the day of reckon
ing. It is going to prove worse than the disease
it was created to cure"
Pretty straight talk from the Virginian, but 1t
NAV help to direct attention to fact that has
been lost sight of in the effort of congress to ad-
minister "shots in the arm" to tagging business
and to unemployment. The steps taken were never
contemplated by any president before Mr. Hoover s
day. No congress would have considered them dur
ing the financial and industrial crises of the past
Mr.. Glass was trying to tell the American people
what the children at play in the sand pile know

being made must be paid What the nation must
consider is how and when they will be paid.-The

PARENTHooD AND DELINQUENCY
(By BRUCE CATTON)


Grand jury reports on crime conditions
are commonly as thick as falling leaves in
autumn, and most of them are as soon for
gotten. But once in q while one is present
ed which expresses a lot Of good sense.
Thus a grand jury at Houston, Tex, not
long ago turned in a report upon delin-
oueney. among Houston's juveniles and
made point which is we'll worth remem-
bering.
eve have found" said the jury's report,
that the fathers and mothers Of many
juvenile delinquents had no knowledge OF
their ohildren's whereabouts, the percent
age running from so to 70 per cent. This
indicates a breakdown of parental author
ity and should serve as immediate warning
to the parents of this country
Back of almost every adult criminal
there. stands the shadowy figures Of Juve-
nile delinquent, lost somewhere in the I'M
redeemable past And back of almost
every juvenile delinquent we can find, If
we look hard enough, a careless and
thoughtless set of parents.
That is self-evident, of course. But it is
something we often forget, and if we could
bear it il mind we might produce some
straighter thinking about our crime PROB
lens.
1t is easy enough to say that the job of
bringing children up to be good citizens
depends, in the last analysis, upon the
parents. But that doesn't entirely cover it.
It doesn't simply mean that child must
have what we call "a good hOme"-plenty
to eat, fair chance to healthy recreation,
honest and industrious parents, measure
of economic security.
Beyond those things, child needs ia
Their and mother who recognize their re-
sponsibility for him. They must know
where ne goes for his play, with whom he
plays, what channels his restless young
mind is exploring. They must be willing to
take the time and energy to guide him.
The parent who fails in this respect has
small reason to beat his breast and bewai
the harshness of fate if his child gets into
trouble.

Marshall Field and Company of Chicago, one of
the greatest mercantile establishments earth,
announces through its president that it operated
at profit in the final quarter of 1882 for the first
time since 1880.
The significance of this statement is apparent
to all students of conditions that have existed in
the United States during the last three years The
great Chicago firm does business in large part
of the United States In normal times its sales far
exceed 500, OOO,O 900 annually. Inasmueh these
sales are made in many states they may be said
to be reliable indication of conditions and senti-
ment in a broad area.
The larger part of this company's business IS
done in the territory tributary to Chicago, and it
is from that territory that reports of financial and
business distress have been especially numerous.
Iowa, Illinois; Indiana, Wisconsin and other mid
western states large buyers from the Field
establishment. If, when the unemployment situa-
ton was most acute and the disturbance in agri-
cultural sections of those states was at its height,
the Marshall Field concern reports the first profit
able business quarter in three years it may be ac-
copied as sign of definite Improvement in condi-
tons despite the unrest manifested by the people.
