WAR OF MACHINES
salinas Index JOurnal)

That precarious grip which the dove of peace
has on her perch in Europe these days can best
be gagged by the fact that people no longer are
asking whether there will be European war;
they are asking when it is apt to start and what
it is going to be like.
Neither of these questions can be answered in
telligenty unless the profound change that has
come over military ideas Of strategy and tactics
since the World war be taken into consideration.
More than ever before, the soldier is becoming
an adjunct to the operation of expensive and
complicated machinery. Never again, probably
will the world anything resembling the mass
movements Of the World war.
In the World war, for instance, the airplane
was primarily scouting Today it is look
ed upon as essentially striking force.
When war begins, each nation can be expect
ed to try with its air fleet to paralyze the great
industrial and commercial centerS Of its enemy.
NOT is that all. The tank and the old-line
cavalry troop have negotiated marriage, and
from it is emerging a strange hybrid-a mechan-
lied force that move up to the fighting line
at so miles an hour, exercise the fire-power OF
whole brigade of 1914 infantry, and overwhelm
a arifle-and-machinegun line Of the World war
type with ease.
fantry were thrown together and left to work
out their own salvation The typical soldier was
still man who carried gun and did his work
on foot. Airplanes, tanks, artillery-al were
adjuncts to the infantryman.
In the future it will be different The typi-
cal soldier will be highly trained technician;
he is apt to- be riding in an airplane, truck, an
armored car, or a high-speed tank. Instead of
fostering in a muddy trench, he will be forever
on the move.
All this means that nation must build and
maintain far more mechanical equipment, per
soldier than ever before. 1t must consult the
factory, rather than the barracks, before it
gees to war
This next war" for which everyone is wait
ing is not likely to begin until the factories give
the word; and it probably will be won by the
side whose factories have made the better prep
arations.

PRISON PAROLES
AND CONYICTS CRIMES

THE record shown by the state
board of prison terms and paroles re-
garding paroled convicts does not look
so good when it is known that many
are released from parole six months
after they are freed from prison, and
crimes thereafter are not charged
against paroled convicts,' Police Chief
James +. Davis of Los Angeles told an
audience here early this week. This col
umn, devoted yesterday TO consideration
of Davis remarks. believes them worthy
of further consideration by the majority
of law abiding citizens.
Chief Davis does not believe in trust
ing eX-convicts too far. His belief IS
put into practice in an understanding
he has effected with state officials that
no prisoner convicted of a crime with a
gun in Los Angeles can thereafter be
paroled to any person in Los Angeles.
A majority of the atrocious crimes
in the United States are committed by
former cOnvicts-many of them by con-
victs still under parole. There is evi-
IDENTIFY something seriously wrong with
a system which permits unhampered
freedom to men patiently dangerous to
society. Much parole abuse is traceable
to politicians and to friends" of the
prisoners.
Judges. law enforcement officers and
other public officials are subject to much
pressure from friends who want paroles
for convicts. One point made by Chief
Davis illustrates the form this pressure
NAV take in exaggerated instances. He
mentioned the Los Angeles business man
who contributed heavily to the campaign
fund of candidate opposing a judge
who had refused parole to a selected
prisoner. The same man is sponsoring
an anti-Davis candidate for city council
because Chief Davis, also, opposed par
ole to his friend.
AS long as disrespect for the law is
demonstrated by such tactics, there will
be danger of increased crime. The solu-
ton lies in the public's refusal to toler-
ate abuses.

Seldom do you find all the lobbyists here

FORERUNNERS OF
A NEW PERIOD

Homemade cooling systems, working
on the same principal as the old wind
cooled desert ice boxes" are gaining
prominence in the homes and in the con-
versation of Imperial Valley folk. They
amount almost to a fad, but it is a fad
which will not die out.
The popularity of the homemade
cooling systems indicates clearly that
a new period of home comfort is coming
to Imperial Valley, where once the sum-
mer meant a general exodus. Homeown-
ers are placing comfort first-a fact
which means that they have ceased to
consider the valley stopping place in
which to make money before they flee
to other climates.
The air cooling device might we'll
serve as a symbol of a new period in the
valleys history.
