COURT GOES AHEAD

The supreme court of North Carolina does not
propose to allow the supreme court of the United
States to get ahead of it in going ahead, oosening
up, hberalizing the law and otherwise coming
abreast of the times.
The other day when Mecklenburg put before that
body the question of issuing bonds for building
school houses in Charlotte, it asked also for the
right to build auditoriums and shops.
The high court, in validating the decision of the
lower court that the local school authorities were
within the law in proceeding they had requested,
wrote into the opinion significant and far-reach-
ing decision.
1t put into the fundamental law of the state that
"audtoriums and shops are component parts of a
public school SYSTEM which may seem innocent
enough.
But nothing like that had ever been acquiesced
in before by the supreme court.
1t has relentlessy held the spending agencies to
school houses and class rooms-nothing more.
1t is the equivalent of lending legal sanction to
frills, fancies and furbelows as some are pleased
to call them.
multitude of scholastic innovations can be
covered now by little, unoffendng word in the
decision-shops

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
PUBLISHING CRIME NEWS

eff newspapers would discontinue the pubica-
ton of crime news | believe it would do more than
anything else to curb crime said Judge Thomas j..
Shaw in his charge this. week to Lincoln county
grand jury. He uttered these words as Observa-
ton rather than criticism of newspapers. What
Judge Shaw should have said is that the papers
should cease "glorifying' criminals.
Some newspapers in the metropolitan centers do
glorfy the criminal in that pictures of said criml-
mails and continued news stories are published, If
this be glory. 1t is not intended by the press as
Qualification but more to keep the public informed
as the case moves on or the mystery unravels, if
there be a mystery about the crime Of course
there are men and women with criminal incina-
lions who purposely commit crime in order to break
into print 1t is this class Judge Shaw no doubt
had reference to when he made the statement that
if newspapers would cease to publish crime news,
crime would decrease.
On the other hand publication of crime news
retards its committal by greater number than are
spurred on for the sake of publicity. There are a
greater number who dread the publicity than relish
it. We have seen thousands of law breakers-hrst-
offenders who have broken minor laws-who re-
gard the publicity of their offense with more dread
than they do the court penalty. In fact, criminal
court Judges have seriously advocated the publica
ton of the names of offenders and the crimes they
have committed in newspapers as advertisements
paid for by the counties as method of reducing
crime.
No newspaper should glorify the criminal, bu5
the publication of crime news is perfectly legltl-
mate and justified from many angles.
1t is our policy, not to portray crime as some
thing attractive and alluring, but as horrible and
dangerous so that the youth of our land will be
repealed or deferred from following in the foot
steps of the criminal When this angle of crime IS
stressed publication of crime news is bound 20
have wholesome effect. 1t must be admitted that
to publish the fact that convicted law breaker
faces the penitentiary or the electric chair does
not encourage crme.-The Cleveland Star.

LIQUOR WASHES OUT STATE LINES

With the issuing of an order by the post office
department directed to publishers, notifying all
concerned that it is now legal TO advertise and
solicit orders for intoxicating liquors through the
mail the last promise made to the dry states has
been broken At the time of the campaign for
repeal of the 18th Amendment one of the solemn
promises made by the vets was that dry states
should be protected against liquor. The speed with
which that promise has been broken sets new low
for political pledges.
Fortunately the drys were never deceived by
such promises. They knew what has been
demonstrated, namely, that with the control OF
liquor turned to individual states any ade-
auate curb on the liquor interests campaign would
be impossible. 1t should now be clear to many
citizens who would not call themselves drys that
the need for some kind of federal control of the
liquor business is imperative. The avowed pur-
pose of the vets in campaigning for repeal of the
18th Amendment was to assure real temperance.
Certainly that end cannot be attained by allowing
full play for wet advertising and propaganda IN
newspapers. magazines and over the air.
Past promises to protect dry states from this
vicious propaganda are now seen in all their emptl-
ness Even if the vets were honest in their beliefs,
as many of them were, they would be powerless to
stop the food under present conditions. But the
promises still stand ard the dry states will be heard
FROM The need for federal control of the liquor
traffic daily becomes urgent And this urgency will
increase until that control is exercised over those
interests whose profits grow as temperance is bro
ken down.-Christian Science Monitor.

just as he was wrestling with a
great desire to be a member of
Hunky-Dory County Club. Twen-
ty-five dollars was needed. Why
not? Next month, he would have
the twenty-five dollars. 1t would
be simply a loan. We can al
ways look ahead and see where
we are going to have more money
later on than we are going to
need. CHANGING into the future,
we are likely to think the salary
will be much larger in proper
ton TO our needs than it is this
month.
So Mr.. Peedee borrowed the
twenty-five dollars and joined
the Hunky-Dory Country Club.
| That expenditure called for more
expenditures. Every time we
spend money to elevate ourselves
in the social scale, we must
spend still more money to keep
ourselves up there. If you should
trade your home in a modest
neighborhood for a home of ex-
actly the same value in a more
pretentiOus neighborhood, your
cost of living would automatic
ally increase. You would have
to keep up with your neighbors
or you would feel that they
would look down on you. Spend
ing twenty-five dollars to join
the country club does not end
the expense. You must keep
up with the other club members
and give little dinners and do
other little things that in the
aggregate cost cost more than a
little.
SO Mr.. Peedee found that af-
ter secretly borrowing the twen-
ty-five dollars from the corpora
| ton, he had to borrow still
more. But always he could re-
assure himself by figuring out
how he could economic and pay
it back next month. Thus the
borrowed sum, like Mr.. Fipney's
turnip, grew and grew.
Then came a radical chanbe in
the affairs of the corporation
with which Mr.. Peedee was con-
nected. The job of manager be-
came vacant. And strange to
say, circumstances, fate-whim-
steal, fickle-or perhaps benign,
opportunity-giving provide n c
pointed to Mr.. Peedee as the man
of the hour. Great stuff, mar
velous chance! There was an
audit made to relieve Mr.. Pee
dee of the responsibilities that
went with his old position.
The audit revealed the unall-
thorized borrowing. SO Nh
Peedee not only lost the higher
Job. but was relieved of the one
he had held for years.
! Here is the irony of the situa.
toni Had Mr.. Peedee been
scruppulously careful, had he re,
flgiously refrained from touch,
ing penny that did not belong
to him, had he been willing t.
deny himself the membership il
the Hunky-Dory County Club
had he shown that he was MAD,

Launched to assist the extremely needy and des-
titute over the winter it seems to have become

WHAT QUAINT BELIEFS HAS THIS
WORLD! s.- ~.
CBY BRUCE CATTON)

II give an American a pleasant IeeLh9
of s,periority to learn that the people OF
NepaL that mysterious Himalayan KING
dom north of India, believe that the recent
Indian earthquake was caused by the
flight of three British aviatorS over Mourn
Everest last spring.
The gods of this mountain, according TO
the people of Nepal, are Jealous of their
peaks Isolation, and get angry whenever
presuniptuous men try to climb it.
When the British airplane went sailing
over the summit. the gods decided things
had gone far enough; so they Jared India
with an earthquake that took $4,000 lives.
This Quaint tale is believed devoutly by
the superstitious and unlettered people ot
the Himalayas, and it all sounds very child
ish and ignorant to enlightened folk like
ourselves.
Yet we have our own troubles III
strengthening out matters of cause and et-
feet, especially where great national disas-
tiers are concerned, and in some ways We
don't seem to be much better at it than the
skin-clad tribesmen of Asia.
We had our own earthquake, matter
of four years ago, in the form of a depres-
sion, and it Jared us clear back to oGr
eye teeth And if there ever was land
in which people did more frantic running
around in circles trying to figure out the
cause of an earthquake, the history books
don't mention it.
Some of us blamed the tariff and some
of us blamed the war; some of us blamed
the foreign debts and some of us blamed
Wall Street; some of us blamed our lack
of faith in God and some of us blamed the
sun spots; some of us blamed Stain and
some of us blamed Andy Mellon. And We
are so far from being agreed on the cause,
even now, that we can't agree on how TO
handle our domestic economy, our foreign
trade, our currency, or our international
relations, to keep it from happening again
Ahathere is something rather frighten-
ing ID alAef this confusion.
1t suggests, somehow, that we are, all of
us, enlightened and unenlightened, at the
mercy of forces which we can comprehend
little better than the Hibalayan peasants
comprehend an earthquake. Perhaps, in
deed, We shall have to accept the Hima-
layah explanation. We flew over high
mountain and the gods were vexed.
