Carried step further this process

consumption of raw materials. par
ticularly those produced on the ma

ployment in the rural regions.
The progressive relationship be-
tween low costs and low prices, in
creased consumption and increased
production, and the certainty of its
leading to increased employment and
increased use of raw materials is so
simple and clear that it should have
been entirely obvious to those direct

We join in the demand made by
every enlightened economic organiza-

that prosperity can be produced
through curtailing production, whether

THE HARVEST Is IAEVII4Is4sA 3 BIZ Il.

One officer Of the law killed ii the
discharge Of his duty and young
woman shot to death BY young man
in his 20's are two Of the latest crimes
to startle the nation And IN the CONF
hitting Of those atrocious crimes Doug
las Van Vlack adds his name TO the
rapidly growing number of young
people in this country who are placed
in the criminal category by their acts.
Van Vlack, fleeing with his former
wife, killed the officer when the Of
ficer tried to stop him and later shot
the young woman when pursuit of the
law became too frightening. Van Vlack
undoubtedly will pay for his misdeeds
with his life.
When one considers the appalling
number Of murders and other crimes
committed by young people from day
to day one wonders at the philosophy
of life that motivates them. Judging
from the conception Of life that is
capturing the thought Of many young
people today, Van Vlack probably held
firmly to the conviction that he must
live his own life that one can learn
only through personal use Of the trial
and error method, that the end iusti-
fies the means provided one can get
away with it,, that the only act that
is wrong is that which Injuries ones
self, and that, anyway, man IS not
free moral agent and that the pattern
of his life is cut out for him by his
heredity and environment and must
follow certain lines in spite of what
he himself can do
Those are the principles on which
many young people are building their
lives today. To one sitting on the
sidelines in calm detachment, there is
no cause for wonder at the result The
terrible and heart-sickening harvest
from such sowing is always sure.

WASHINGTON CURRENT
 COMMENT

July II, 1885 A good many Democrats may be of the opinion that the party can do no wrong. There are quite as many Republicans who feel that whatever a Democratic administra- tion may attempt cannot be right. The non-thinking of both parties if collected into a single organiza- tion, would have things in their own hands, There is one matter, however, which is a prod sharp enough to goad the easy-going in to thought and action, regardless of political utilization, and that matter is taxes.
