PICKPOCKET PREVENTION

MYTH the support of merchants Chief
" Mike Morrissey has placed a special po-
lice detail in the business district to block the
inroads Of pickpockets
During this time of year, it seems that
pickpocketS thrive as do the crops. Hot days
result in removal of mems coats and most
women shoppers are too busy to pay much
attention to what happens to their purses as
they make their way through the throngs in
the downtown stores.
Chief Morrissey has acted wisely in at
tempting to halt the pickpocket invasion at
this time If he can block it now before the
State American Legion convention next week,
he will prevent many petty thieves from reap
ing harvest and guests of Indianapolis from
being preyed upon by these individuals.

FREEDOM FOR MEN!

THE young New Yorker who compelled the
managers of a big office building to have
him arrested, rather than submit to their
rule that he could not ride in their elevators
on hot day without his coat, ought to en-
dear himself to great many perspiring Amer
lean males.
Men have great deal of fun criticising
the foibles if feminine fashions; yet women,
after all, do have sense enough to wear cool
clothing in the summer time, while men con-
tinue supinely to put up with the rule which
says that a man is not properly clothed, even
on the most sweltering day, unless he has
coat on.
If women can go about their business on
torrid day with nothing between their bodies
and the great outdoors but a few ounces of
thin cloth, it ought to be possible for men to
be presentable in their shirt sleeves. This
young New Yorker seems to have struck
blow in a good cause.

THE LUSITANIA

nNE of these days-posSibly after the heat
of the summer has passed and we are
again taking a normal interest in life-the
hulk of the Inflated Lusitania is going to be
found on the bottom of the sea off the Irish
coast
When that day comes, the newspaper
reader of today will see unfolded before him
in black and white one of the most thrilling
romance stories of the age. Perhaps it will
not go down in history as the greatest story
of this type, but we can not think OF one in
many years past that even has compared with
this narrative that is to come.
Twenty years ago the Lusitania, loaded
with its cargo of humanity freight and VAL
tables went down in the channel off the Eng
lSh coast The luxury liner, sailing during
the strained days of warfare. was a sacrifice
to an era of fighting and hatred.
And now modern science is struggling with
the forces of the sea to bring to light the true
tale of the liners tragedy and to reveal the
parts of the story that have been hidden
fathoms below the surface of the sea.
The story of the attempt to learn the an
swerS to the Lusitania'S fate has been ex-
IRENE interesting even though the wreckage
has not been found. Day by day the tale will
increase in interest until the day when The
Times brings you the story of the finding of
the hulk and the subsequent revelations
To miss this is to miss a story so packed
with human interest that it has never been
matched before.

STUPID AND CRUEL

FAILURE of Congress to pass the Kerr bill
would be both stupid and cruel Stupid
because this Administration measure gives the
Labor Department power to deport certain alien

sirable aliens not now deportable.
Cruel, because it gives the government dis
cretionary power to allow desirable aliens now
deportable to remain, and because failure to
bestow this power will cause the widespread
separation of families, pauperization of their
dependents and needless suffering.
For months now some $500 deportable
aliens Of this class have been hanging on the
edge Of disaster. immigration Commissioner
Mccormack has held off giving the harsh
DEGREES in the hope that Congress would pass
the Kerr bill. He says he can not longer
withhold deportation orders without authori-
zation from Congress.
II these $500 aliens are deported they will
leave behind them in the United States 1000
relatives. of whom 5000 are wives and chill
dren Most of these will become wards of
charity or relief
The Kerr bill, reported by both House and
Senate immigration Committee. is being held
up by the House Rules Committee because CT
the uniformed and prejudiced opposition of
few patrioteering congressman. A similar
bill last year was beaten in the same way.
Opposition is particularly uninteiligent be-
cause the Kerr bill would result in a net de-
crease in the numbers Of aliens in this coun-
try as well as in better type.
