ABOUT RIOTS IN PRISONS

Another prison riot and strike" of CRIMINALS mas
occurred and has been subdued in the trouoleu
state penitentiary in Lansing, Kansas.
It is only Is months since the last previous Sc
rious trouble in that prison.
Prison riots and strikes seem to be increasing
in frequency and in their fatal serious results
Is there some one strong provoking cause 81
these outbreaks?
Or is It simply natural fault of the whole pr's-
on idea?
Is it because of harsh and severe treatment OF
prisoners in certain Institutions, or axity IN man
agement?
Is it the result of too much "coddling," as many
people claim?
Or is it just wrat we must always expect from
the desperate and vicious men who make up a
considerable portion of our prison population, and
who take the leadership in all sorts of trouble
making?
Complaint about the food is often made the
basis or excuse for prison strikes or riots.
That is not often found to be justified.
If there is cruelty or injustice mismanage-
ment in our prisons, these things ought to be un-
covered and corrected.
If vicious and desperate prisoners need more
rigid restraint it should be administered, with
verify if necessary.
1t is probable we shall always have trouble as
long as faulty and ineffective Imprisonment
metrod of Furnishing crime persists.
And because we haven't the slightest idea of
anything better wiser or more efficacious, it
will probably stand for long time and we shall
have to continue to guard against such outbreaks
as this latest in Kansas-Rock Hill S. c.. Herald.

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
rs snI11H CAROLINA FOR REVOLUTION?

Commenting on the recent speech and interview
of Senator Byrnes about Estate rights and tina.
"the papers are popping Jimmie like . swarm OF
yellow Jackets" The Calhoun Times says we
should not be too hard on Senator Byrnes
The question is not one of Senator Byrnes; 1t IS
of Franklin D. Roosevelt and the New Deal
If South Carolina is for the New Deal II IL
wants the revolution, Mr.. Byrnes is the ideal sen-
atOr.
If South Carolina is for state self-destrucuoh
under Mr.. .Roosevets leadership it is extraord-
narily fortunate that is has senator who is the
presidents right hand man.
To ''be hard on Byrnes" is to be hard on Roose-
welt.
In The News and Courers opinion the revoln-
ton would involve the sacrifice of South Carolina
Revolution mark, does not necessarily mean fight
ing, violence. Governments often have been torn
down and rebuilt, for good bad with little dis
play of force. All depends on whether or not tie
country is ripe for the revolution.
Let us make no mistake. Let us not deceive our
selves Let us not run away from facts. Mr. Roose-
Welt is leading revolution He is changing, as
RAPIDLY as he can. the form and methods OF gov
eminent of this republic. He would change govern
ment more than it was changed by the EnglSn
revolution of 1858.
South Carolina has got to be for or against the
revolution 1t will help to make the decision wheth'
pr it wishes to do so or not.-Charleston News and

II s MAKES EXAMPLE OF CoNNIVING
LAWYER
CBy BRUCE CATION

One of the most significant moves IN the
Governments fight with the underworld
took place almost unnoticed at Oklahoma
City the other day, when lawyer was con-
victed in federal court of sharing in money
that had been paid as kidnap ransom
The LAWYER was Ben B. Laska of Denver,
and his conviction represented one more
of-shoot of the famous Urschel kidnapping
case, in which 10 other persons have al
ready been convicted. And the significance
of this last conviction lies in the fact that
it begins a campaign by the government 10
teach attorneys that they must not share IN
the illegal profits of gangs.
Laska's case is instructive, as an exam
pie of the way in which it is possible for a
lawyer to overstep the bounds OF proper
procedure in defense of gangster.
Retained as counsel for Albert Bates,
one of the leaders of the kidnapping ring
Laska was accused of having received slo'-
600 in cash from Bates stepson, Edward
Feldman. This money, according to Field
man, was part of the ,Urschel ransom
money.
In addition, Feldman testified that Laska
directed the hiding of Bates share OF the
ransom money, and gave instructions which
enabled Feldman to evade arrest for ID
months after Bates had been captured,
Feldman's mother testified that she had
wished to surrender, but that Laska had
told her she would 'get her throat cut II
she did
All this, presented to federal jury, re-
suited in a speedy conviction for one Of
the most prominent criminal lawyers o.
the west.
Charting a proper course for a lawyer
who defends crook is delicate matter
Any man accused of crime has the right
to hire counsel, and his counsel has the
right to put up the best kind OF hight fol
him that he can. Yet there is dividing
lin ebetween ethical practice and outright
criminality which an, over-zealous attorney
can easily cross.
Against the lawyer who put up an hon,
est fight for client there can be no quar-
REL But the lawyer who takes that one
extra step, and gets over the dividing line
becomes an outright accompIce of tht
gangster.
He profits by the fruit of the gangster'
crimes, in direct and unmistakable way
he helps his client avoid arrest, as we'll y
conviction, and by the direction and aG
vice ne gives, he becomes silent partne
in the crime ring.
Nothing would help more, in our fgh
against crime, than an effective campaigl
to punish such lawyers. The Oklahom
trial ought to remind BORDER line" attol
neys that it isn't healthful to overstep tina
dividing line between ethical practice an
criminal conniving.

Drivers who passed red lights or stop signs; or who violated parking ordinances, turned in $50 to police yesterday for the high mark in the departments campaign for observ- ance of traffic and parking regula- tions. The money was today turned over to the clerk of the city court.
 Six drivers paid for passing red lights, $5 each; IS operators paid g each for passing stop signs; and IA illegal parkers paid $1 each.
 Thomaston avenue, in Waterville, and Willow and Grove streets, yes- terday proved the spot where most of the stop sign passers were nailed. Patrolmen Matthew Guarini and John Donahue and Motor Patrol man Joseph Mccarthy halted, be- tween them, 12 drivers whose cars failed to come to a full stop when ordered to by signs in the road.
 More drivers were being pulled in today as the drive continued at full momentum. Plain clothesmen and uniformed officers were ste toned at intersections all over the city.
 The drivers who paid yesterday for passing red lights were: Gerald Dean, of Brookfeld; Louis Albini, of 85 Madison street; Harry Brinn, of New Haven; Joseph Shushnik, of
