SPARING THE ROD

Frank j. Loesch is former president of the
Chicago Crime Commission. In symposium on
what to do about crime and the failure Of law to
deter criminals, he declared:
Nothing throws such fear of the law into young
hoodlums and potential criminals as sound whip
ping by authority. Our perverts and hoodlums have
increased and are increasing fast by reason of the
abolishing of corporal punishment in our schools.
favor adding to the school staff of city
few strong men who shall do all the whipping, go
ing from school to school as needed for such boys
as shall have been designated by proper school
committee"
Judge Thomas ]. Shaw, veteran superior court
Judge, likewise believes in the effectiveness of cor
poral punishment. When he was holding court here
a year or so ago, he exclaimed one day:
81 believe firmly both that the whipping post
would be good thing for the control of certain
types of criminals and that its effectiveness will
be recognized and made part of our system"
We have nothing of our own to add to these
opinions except to say that somehow we think both
of them may be right-Charlotte News

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
LIQUOR LAW CHANGES

Legislators are displaying interest in amending
the state law legazing the sale of Intoxicating
whisky. Already according to Columbia dispatches
two bills have been introduced in the house seeking
changes in the measure. Whatever the merits or
dement's of the proposed legislation 1t Is current
information that the law as it stands needs tight
enng and amending, if there is to be protecuon
against its violation and the increasing spread OF
Bookkeeping. 1t is no difficult thing for those IN
cned to violate the law to gain their ends by clf
cumventng the opening and closing hours OF the
whisky stores, as many are aware
None of the boosted claims of benefits and ad-
vantage the state would derive from legalizng the
sale of whisky have materialized. There has been
no tightening of the tax burdens in spite of the
revenues derived and pro rated from this source.
There has been no diminishing Of illicit traffic
much less elimination. Truth is, any approach to
handling the issue is difficult and with politics
manifest from almost every angle this difficulty is
enhanced Merely legalizing the sale of whisky has
not settled the issue by a long shot.-Spartanburg
Journal.

WHY END FARM TENANCY?

As long as the sit-down strikers are in the plants
of the Flint body works the strike is won by the
workers in those plants When other people are in
possession of your house you are ousted, licked
beaten You have no house If the Flint plants are
not the property of the General Motors Corpora
ton and the sit-down strikers lawfully in then
if that is the opinion of government and the law
enforcers, what is the of resistance by the
corporation? If sit-down strikers shall be upheld
by law and government in taking and possessing
property socialism has arrived in the United States
II will come home to you. 1t will come home to u.s.
The right of private property? Government plainly
is in doubt about the existence of such right.
That is what its temporizing means. While the sit
down strikes last and the automobile operatives
are in possession John L. Lewis is dictator so far
as those plants are considered. If workers take
possession of your farm and you cannot get them
off your land without buying them off, why do you
want farm? Yet they talk about ending the evil
of farm tenancy in a country where man cannot
call his farm his own! If there shall be no private
property in Flint plant, what is the guaranty OF
a private property in South Carolina plantation!
II one cannot be protected in ownership why not
remain a tenant?-Chareston News and Courier.

LOOKING AHEAD

Looking ahead, the prospect is not pleasant
one. None of US desire to see an increase either
in state or public ownership of lands or IN the
number of tenant farmers or tenant jewellers IN
towns and cities But we are heading quite def
nitely in that direction. The result is unavoidable
unless halt is called, and that Immediately Tax
burdens, both upon those who can pay and those
who cannot pay, are far too great. The proverbial
last straw is being placed upon the proverbal cam
els proverbial back The result, long forecast, is
inevitable
The way out is not too clearly indicated. step
in the right direction would be the discontinuance
of the issuance of tax-exempt municipal and state
bonds. CAPITAL seeking such investment has made
it easy for the public, voluntarily, to assume added
and often unwise and unnecessary burdens. But
the clearance process will be slow and tedious
Meantime, the recourse of the people who can still
paw taxes is to see to it that those chosen as dis
bursting officers are prudent, honest, and respon-
sive to their ponsbilities-Frank l.. Perrin in
Christian Science Monitor.

IS THIS ACCORDING TO PRINCIPLES
OF DEMOCRACY?

Movements to have the North Carolina
Legislature pass special laws which would
have the effect of lodging the power OF
county government of Madison and Clay
counties in Raleigh, should be defeated
without argument or contest.
Madison and Clay are politically Repub-
lican; Madison is heavily so; and IN the
last election they picked Republicans to
fill county offices. Now the Democrats
propose to get control of county affairs
through special legislation. One OF the
things proposed is to pack" the boards OF
county commissioners with Democrats. To
a board consisting of three Republicans
would be added four Democrats, elected
by the Legislature.
The scheme is simple and beautiful
from the standpoint of small-bore, low
grade politicians.
The Asheville ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
newspapers with record for wagmg
party battles - are carrying on valiant
fight against these proposals to thwart the
will of majority of the voters OF Madison
and Clay counties. The position OF the
Asheville newspapers is right and is to be
highly commended by all right-thinking,
fair-minded citizens of both political par
ties.

PSYCHOLOGY

Psychology is a deep sounding word, and
the average person hardly knows what 1t
means. It is defined as the science OF the
human mind But profound as the subject
il. vet it is a line of thought that is being
studied by many unemployed people, who
are anxious to find ways by which they
can make good in the world.
Many people who know little or nothing
about theoretical psychology, are yet in
a practical way very good psychologists
themselves. A politician for instance may
never have studied this science in any
book, vet instinct tells him how the minds
of his constituents work. Many politicians
are too much swayed by every current OF
popular opinion that blows, so that they
are not much more than mere weather
vanes. But still any successful statesman
has to know what the people are thinking
in their inmost minds, before he can sway
their thought.
The good salesman is an excellent psy-
chologist. He knows how the mind OF his
customer works. He tries to adapt himself
tn the tendencies in the mind of his Gus
toners. and how to appeal to different
types of minds.
One reason why many persons fail to
read peoples minds, is that they are so
anxious to talk themselves and express
their own thoughts, that they rarely listen
to others. The person who listens more
than he talks, knows the thoughts that are
passing through the minds of the people,
and is better able to predict what they Will
do. and what kind of argument will appeal
to them.

IN WASHIN GTON

That is the way the British do
,t when they get a new king. The
monarch takes the throne over at
once, but coronation ceremonies
are delayed for months, pending
good weather.
Washington business men in
cline to like the idea, because
most of them would profit more
from large crowds and pleasant
weather, to say nothing of the
fact that they wouldn't be so
likely to have to dig down and
pay off such a deficit as was piled
up this year. Many folks stayed
away on account of the weather
and those who came showed no
great enthusiasm for the expen-
sive open air seats in the specially
built inaugural stands.
&
RUT whether or not the inau-
- guration date is changed, the
recent experience has made IL
much more likely that the $1,000
900 appropriated by Congress for
a Thomas Jefferson memorial will
be used by Congress for a huge
federal auditorium, where such a

ceremony might be staged.

this idea, first advanced by Sec
rotary Ickes.
Although Roosevelt gaily de-
clared he could "take it" and did,
exposing himself to the elements
more than he needed to, his health
didn't suffer. But that doesn't
mean that the country might not
lose a president some day because
of such exposure on inauguration
day.

WJASHINGTON.-Vice President
w Jack Garner has given his
public promise to keep silent on
public questions for the next four
years. so anyone who wasn't
breathing easy about that may do
20 now.
Garner comes very close to be-
Ing the only important public
figure in the capital who, besides
RETAINING from statements of all
kinds, guards state secrets 100
per cent in his conversations with
newspaper correspondents.
And yet in meetings of the cab
met and private sessions with
groups of members of Congress,
Garner is often the most voluble
person present. Although the pic
turesqueness of his flow Of Ian
guage is somewhat hampered by
the presence Of Secretary Of La
Dor Frances Perkins, the vice
president often roars long and
loud at the cabinet table when he
is convinced Of a proposals i'm
practicality.
The vice president usually ad-
dresses the president as "Cap,"
Boss" "Chief." or "Old Top"
"When ! address him as Mr..
President" Garner once told an
old friend, "he sits up and takes
notice. Because then he knows
I'm mad"
CERIOUS consideration is being
- given to proposals that here
after inaugurations of presidents
be held in the spring, when there
is likelihood of good weather. No
one wants to 60 through another
such day as the recent Inaugural
ton day, with its unspeakably
vile weather.
The idea would be to have the
president take the oath of Office
on Jan. 20 at simple indoor cere-
monies and postpone the inau-
gural parade and Sther big do
ings until April or May, when the
cherry blossoms are, out and
everybody can have fun and romp
around in presumably balmy
weather instead Of getting soaked
