Belgium MOz1r1as
Death of Queen
Killed in Wreck
Astrid, Of Sweden, Had Been Queen
of Belgians only Is Months;
Was Beloved

Astrid, 29-year-old Queen of the
Belgians, was almost instantly killed
Thursday in an automobile accident
in Switzerland, while riding with her
husband, King Leopold.
The King was driving, at a speed
said to have been between so and SIS
miles an hour, when their automobile
swerved off country road and hit a
tree, throwing them both from the
car. The Queens skull was fractured.
Driving along a sunny road the
monarch turned his head as if admir-
ing the mountain scenery, according
to attendants trailing the royal pair
in another car, when the automobile
driven by Leopold suddenly swerved
and struck tree. The Queen was
hurled against another tree.
The King also was injured, but his
injuries were not serious.
The Queen died in his arm while he
kissed her and begged her to speak to
him. It was not known if she was con-
scious during the five minutes be-
tween the accident and her death.
Queen Astrid's father and mother,
the aged Prince Carl and Princess
1nceborg of Sweden, mournfully char
tered an airplane to fly to Lucerne,
Switzerland, to join the grief-stricken
husband of their daughter.
The news of the tragedy was with
held from Queen Mother Elizabeth of
Belgium for several hours, because of
her i'll health. She was at Naples,
Italy, when informed of the death, of
her daugter-in-law. She had been in
i'll health since the tragic death of her
husband, King Albert, 10 months ago.
President Roosevelt sent a message
to King Leopold, saying te American
pepole "will share the grief Of the
Belgian people in the loss Of Queen
who so graciously personified the
ideals of Belgium"
Thousands of the populace stood in
the rain Saturday at Brussels for
hours awaiting. q chance of a fare
well glimpse Of Queen Astrid. The
young Queens body rested on white
silk bed, past which they slowly filed,
10 abreast.
The funeral was held with pomp
and splendor Tuesday.

Wife of Secretary
of interior Killed in
Automobile Accident

The New Mexico state police an
nounced Saturday night that Mrs.
Harold L. Ickes, 81, wife Of the Sec
rotary of the interior, was killed on
a New. Mexico highway when her
motor car was forced from the road
by a hit and run motorist.
Mrs. 1ckes was on tour of the far

She was politician in her own
right. ... ...

found her duties in Washington
would make it difficult for her to
give sufficient attention to the af-
fairs Of her district.
Holding to her part affiliations,
she served in her legislative post at
Springfield during important sessions
in 1888 after her husband was named
secretay Of the interior.

WORK MUST TAKE PLACE OF
DIRECT RELIEF

The country has moaned and
groaned as it has seen the govern
ment handing out money and food to
men and women who do not work for
it. but under the new order Of things,
direct relief will soon be a thing of
the past and work must be done in
order to pocket any of Uncle Sans
dollars.
Whether the work goes to those
who actually need it or not will de.
uend entirely on the sincerity and
earnestness of the ones who are hired

to distribute it.

The editor of Liberty has a most
timely editorial which we pass on to
our readers entitled Give Billion is
Cheap if Work Replaces the DOLE.
Here is part Of it:
Nearly five billion dollars has been
set aside to be used by the President
to give employment to able-bodied
workers now on the dole. Five billion
dollarsi
What q colossal sum!
If you had this sum of money in
one-dollar bills and were able to count
it at a hundred bills a minute for
twelve hours every day, it would re-
quire nearly two hundred years.
And yet if we have, say, ten million
unemployed to put to work, this huge
sum would allow them in wages only
$500 each.
It is doubtless fortunate We have
a President who is willing to expert
ment and who is first, last, and all
the time DESTROYS of looking after
the forgotten man.
He is to be congratulated on his
determination to do what he can to
rid us of the dole eivl.
When you put able-bodied men to
work who have been subsisting on
charity they can then be self-respect-
ing, they can then hold up their
heads and feel they can be self-sup-
porting citizens.
Charity is a disorganizing force.
And the dole is charity. We cannot
avoid this definition. There may be
times when it is necessary to save
people from severe suffering, from
hunger and cold. But when such fl
nancial assistance continues for a
prolonged period it makes one lazy,
shiftless-it destroys ambition, en-
thusiasm, and even the love of life.
The necessity of working to live
exists wherever there is life. It is
the struggle to manifest life that
creates life. Activity is the law Of
life. Birds of the air have to search
for food for themselves and for their
young. The beasts Of the forest must
be active to live. Hunger drives them
onward, compels them to work.
And human beings are no excep-
ton. They must work to live in every
sense of the. word. With nothing to
do, with no responsibilities to assume,
one becomes weak and wavering ply
sically and mentally. Muscles become
soft, flaccid, debilitated-the mind
logy. lacking the strength of decision
so important to mental efficiency.
A charity victim ultimately loses
the desire to be capable outstanding
citizen. He becomes shiftless, unde-
pendable, a cipher with a badge Of
inaptitude and decrepitude that usu.
ally accompanies poorhouse victims
For every citizen that is on the dole
occupies a poorhouse, no matter
where he resides, a habitation that
for generations has been looked upon
as the last word indicating the enfee-
Element Of old age.
Let US hope also that the work that
will replace the dole will prove suffi-
GENTLY profitable that it can continue
indefinitely after this huge sum has
been exhausted. For man must work
to live-that is, to live in every sense
of the word. There is vast differ.
ence between merely existing ant
living majestically.

u. s. AND THE ETHIOPIAN
SITUATION


ing what course to take in the affair
between Italy and Ethiopia, President
Roosevelt, acting for the United
States, has signed resolution which
approves a policy of Glands off" for
our actions in the future.
Anything that moves toward keep
ing peace has a welcome sound when
war talk is rampant, but in the event
Italy does continue in her plans to
annext part of Ethiopia and should,
by so doing, start another war in
Europe, could We stay out of it any
more easily than We did the last one?
In personal or private affairs, if
a man makes too much commotion in
a neighborhood, the police takes him
in charge, marches him before the
Justice Of the peace and he either
stops his Objectionable hostilities or
is jailed. 1t is pity that in the vast
scheme of international activities
there is not something which corre-
spends to this strong-arm method so
that when a country threatened to
throw a world into discord in order
to satisfy personal gain, it might be
dealt with in a manner severe and
effective enough to stop trouble be-
fore it is beyond the stopping stage.
Conduct in John Doe which men,
aces the peace and good order of the
village cannot BE- commendable in a
man of greater importance who is
capable of throwing world into dis
order.
The dangerousness of the situation
is summed up in the clipping from
Julian Miller's column in last Sun
days Charlotte Observer:
Stay out! That's what our isola-
tionists are saying as to what should
be the attitude of the United States
toward foreign embroglios.
"Their advice is tasty. We have
had our fill of getting into the wars
of other people.
"Look at our cemeteries in France,
our multiplied thousands of destroyed
men in American hospitals, our war
debts and all the other evidences Of
the benefit Of the staying-out policy.
"It would be delightful to follow
these sentiments except that physical
facts are hard to hurdle and it so
happens that these facts advise us
that there is no such thing for
America or any other country as iso-
lation.
washington, who is frequently
quoted as having warned this country
to avoid "entangling alliances" which
he never did, would know, if he were
living, what all informed rulers know
today that when Italy strikes dead
Iy blow at Ethiopia, tremors will be
felt on the floor of the New York
Stock Exchange.
"The unity of the world makes
such intimacy unavoidable no matter
what we may wish to be the situa.
tion."

1000 ARMY GUNS
IN USE BY GANGS
164 Raids on Armories
Strengthen ''Enemies"
Hunted by U. S.
BY REX COLLIER.

In their war on public enemies"
the Governments anti-crime forces
must face an underworld armed with
more than 1000 Army guns, from
pistols to automatic rifles and machine
guns.
The Justice Departments Bureau Of
Investigation disclosed today that since
January /, 1888, gangsters have stolen
1.719 military weapons and l90.776
rounds of ammunition during a series
of 1854 raids on National Guard
armories.
OF these. only IT'S guns have been
recovered-mostly from such desperate
gangs as those of Dillinger, the Bar
rows, Mais and Legenza and the
kidnapping Barkers and Karpis.
Battle Near Miami.
Special agents of the Bureau of In
vestigation heard the whine of Army
bullets from Army 80 caliber rifles
during their most recent gun battle
with gangland some weeks ago near
Miami On that occasion, Fred Barker
and his machine-gunning mother.
AuOWh " LllC uIloCI WoIlo hS MO
Barker, were slain. Several rifles stolen
from a Guard armory were found in
their improvised fort.
The Barrow brothers and various
members of the Dillinger gang often
replenished their depleted arsenals by
burglarizing or holding up armories.
The notorious Tri-State gang. headed
by Mais and Legenza, was armed with
guns stolen from the armory at Hyatts-
vile. Md.
Agents Of the Bureau OF Investi-
cation are conducting inquiries in So
cases involving robbery of National
Guard armories. In connection with
these and other cases. 219 persons
have been arrested, 159 persons have
been convicted, 6 have been acquitted.
20 cases have been dismissed and
prosecution of "a persons is pending.
4O3 Years Sentences.
Sentences totaling 4O3 years have
been meted out. while suspended and
probationary sentences have totaled
103 years. In addition. as result of
cases involving use of the stolen guns,
there nave been TWO lie sentences,
two sentences of from IS to 30 years.
19 indeterminate sentences and fines
aggregating s16,610.
Records indicate that OF 190.776
rounds of ammunition stolen since
January !, 1888, a total Of 1883
rounds have been recovered
The Department of Justice some
time ago brought to the attention of
the War Department the problem of
preventing further thefts from Ma
tional Guard armOries-many of
which. 1t was declared. are in fiimsy
buildings and are inadequately pro-
tected.
At that time War Department au-
thorities explained that National
Guard armories are not under super
vision of the Army. but of State
officials.
