WHERE THE BLAME LIES

DIANE for the rapid rise and ever in
- creasing strength of racketeering
and gangsterism is placed at the door of
municipal governments in metropolitan
cities by Senator Murphy of Iowa, mem
Der of the senate committee investigating
gangsterism.
The senator's diagnosis is correct. but
it is not new information to the great
mass of American citizens
Gangsterism and racketeering are
hardly known in the smaller cities and
towns of the nation That is not to say
there is no evil in the smaller commun-
tiles. There is, and plenty of it. BY and
large, however, major crime is fostered
and thrives best in places where humans
are crowded together as they are in
metropolitan areas.
Guerilla warfare against the gangsters
does not meet with the senator's ap-
proval. Not that he has any feeling of
sympathy toward them, but he believes
adoption of guerilla tactics by the police,
as advocated by some authorities, would
result chiefly in the creation of new
gangs and bring about constantly in
creasing and never ending battle between
police and gang men.
the "boring from within" style of at
lacking the gangsters. He would have
government men mingle and associate
with the gangsters, obtaining sufficient
evidence in this way so that the law
would be able to prosecute them success
fully
He joins the advocates of a national
police force, asserting that state and
municipal authorities are almost power
less against the gangsters. He does not
say so, but this condition is due chiefly
to the political corruption surrounding
the municipal governments.
The number of those who will agree
with the senator's plans is bound to in
crease. Old style strong arm methods
have not prevailed against the gangster.
He must be fought in a new way and it
becomes more apparent each day that
the federal government possesses the
best advantages in fighting him.
Senator Murphys suggestions should
become something more than part of a
report. They should be put into effect
promptly.
Blankets in August Yes, and no
kicks have been registered yet.

UNCLE WIGGILY'S LITTLE

Igily to the puppy dog boy, 'let me
see what tricks this dog friend of
yours can do before I give you a
dollar for him SO you can buy ice
cream cones. Show me some tricks. !"
Sure I WILL" barked Jackie wink
ing one eye at his brother dog,
Peetie, to whose collar Jackie had
tied rope.
Peetie was made up sort of like
a Halloween dog, with streaks OF
mud on him and some burdock
burrs stuck on him SO Uncle Wig
gily wouldn't know him.
AS told you in the story last
night, Jackie was going to pretend
to sell his brother, Peetie, to Uncle
Wiggily as trick dog. And when
the rabbit gentleman had paid a
dollar for Peetie, giving the money
to Jackie, why that little puppy was
going to buy lot of ice cream cones
on account of the hot weather. And

What are you going to do with
your new trick dog, Uncle Wiggily?"
asked Jackie.
"Oh, I am going to give a little
show with him and make some mo-
ney," answered the rabbit gentle
man. Il cannot afford to pay dol
lar for trick dog unless he can
earn money for me. This dog of
mine must work hard at his tricks
to pay me back. Come along now"
he called to Peetie, as Jackie ran
to the store to buy ice cream cones.
Peetie wasn't feeling very hap
py now. He began to be sorry that
he and Jackie had planned this
joke to play on Uncle Wiggily.
Peetie was sorry he had rubbed
Mad on himself and had stuck
burdock burrs on himself so Mr..
Longears wouldn't knoW him. And
Peetie wasn't sure that Jackie would
save any ice cream cones for him.
No, Peetie wasn't happy
Uncle Wiggily led his new trick
tdog along until they met Uncle
Butter, the goat, Mr.. Twistytail, the
pig gentleman, and Mr.. Stubtail,
the bear gentleman. They asked
Uncle Wiggily what he had.
This is new trick dog bought
to give a little show" said the rab-
bit. Watch him do tricks. He will
make money for me-" So he made
Peetie walk on his hind legs and
front legs and turn somesaults all
of which the animal gentlemen
though were fine tricks.
Nov play the mouth organ!'
ordered Uncle Wiggily all of sud-
den.
ooh, 1 can't do that trick" bark
ed Peetie, before he thought what
he was saying. Then Uncle Wiggily
laughed and said:
II knew, all the while, it was you,
Peetie. I was only having some fun
with you and Jackie. You didn't
fool me at all. Now run along be-
fore Jackie eats all the ice cream
cones" So Peetie laughed and ran
to find his brother ana ne was Just
in time to get his share of the
treat.
So this teaches us it isn't a good
thing TO play too many tricks. But
if the ketchup bottle doesn' pour
molasses in the rubber boot so it
will not slip off the foot of the bed
I'll tell you next about Uncle Wig
gily and the blue jay bird and how
they had a strange adventure to-
gether.

Two years ago as chief publicity
