win time on his present sentence for be-
ing good in Jail. he will be out again
In less than q year.
The imposition Of one-year sentence
when . two-year term was possible must
have been disheartening to the police,
however. They do not regard Steele as
an ordinary prisoner, deserving Of
clemency or other consideration. To
them he is an habitual criminal of an
exceedingly dangerous type.
His record runs the gamut from minor
misdemeanors to such grave charges
as grand larceny, burglary. assahlt, con-
cealed weapons and prison break. The
record shows amazingly few years spent
in Jail for such long period Of out
lawry.
The picture of law enforcement thus
presented Is not comforting to citizens
confronted with recurring evidences Of
organized gangsterism in the Nations
Capital.
They believe quite sincerely that con-
frmed criminals OF the Steele brand
should be given the stifFest sentences
allowed by law-not so much in punish
ment for their misdeeds as in protection
Of an outraged society.

The New Diplomacy

Relaxation from the formalities of
attire in certain official rites of Govern
ment has marked the present admins
tration and the sartorial scene in WASH
1ngton has been somewhat changed in
consequence. It may, however, be ques-
toned whether this tendency has gone
quite as far as may be inferred from the
report to a metropolitan newspaper
regarding the reception at the White
House of an envoy from ono of the Gen.
trail American countries. The report
states that by special arrangement the
formal dress and the attendance of naval
and military aides in dress uniform were
waived, the reading of prepared state
ments was omitted and the President
and the envoy sat and chatted and
smoked without the customary ceremo-
nies. That was quite in the order Of the
new style OF foreign relations. But the
verteaous account in question went fur
thar ID the depletion of the scene and
thus described the habiliments Of the

Obligation of Congress Is
To Act for PEOPLE ONLY
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
Anent the controversy at the Capitol
over the wages-and- hours and farm con-
troll legislation, submit the following
in the earnest hope that through the
columns of your widely read paper it may
reach the eyes and minds of the men
In whose hands our future is being
weighed. May the balance swing in
Americas favor!
The millions Of American citizens
elected the Senators and Representatives
Of the Congress Of the United States of
America in the belief that our inalienable
right to life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness" is q sacred trust in their
hands, to be 50 held, inviolate, and under
neither circumstance nor pressure to be
. medium Of barter or exchange.
There are certain measures before
Congress today which, IL passed for the
Presidents signature, will prove dis
astrous, not alone to the Nation as q
whole, but to each individual concerned
members Of Congress included. The
people therefore require that q most
thorough and searching care, with
conscientious honor, shall govern con-
sideration of these bills to the end that
our rights shall be defended and pro-
tected.

chief actors: "The President wore q sack

Fortunately, there was no candid cam
era at hand to make pictorial history Of
the spectacle thus presented. But 1t Is
to be hoped that the verbal account thus
given Of the occasion will not be trans
mitted to the homeland of the envoy,
where the dignities of Office are scrupu-
lousy observed and cherished. The
thought of the accredited official envoy
sitting in the presidential presence minus
two of the usual garments worn on such
occasions-indeed. wern invariably in
public whatever the occasion-is calcu-
lated to cause shock. 1t is to be hoped
that an appropriate addendum will
quickly be provided, to settle any qualms
that may have been caused by this bit
of descriptive writing.

Two Years-COncurrently.

.
james r. Steele, one of the more
notorious of local gangsters, is out Of
circulation again-for one year.
The police here and elsewhere, who
have arrested Steele twenty-eight times
since 1914 and who have heard the
whine of bullets from the so-called
Steele Williams gang. had hoped he
would be placed behind bars a minimum
OF two years. So had many citizens,
genuinely aroused over recent disclosure
that Steele and other members of his
bandit mob have been at liberty on low
bonds for more than a year.
The court had it within its power
to double Steele's sentence. The des-
perado had pleaded guilty to two
charges-attempted housebreaking and
carrying concealed weapons. Each Of
fense carries q maximum sentence of
one year in prison. The court imposed
the maximum penalty on each count
but ruled that the terms should be
served concurrently. It is understood
the court took into consideration the
voluntary plea and the fact that other
charges were pending against the
prisoner.
To Gangster Steele one year in Jail
is somewhat unpleasant, but not greatly
disheartening. He knows that II hs
can beat the pending charges and can

Thinks Cuyer Bill Offers
Sound Economic Proposal

To the Editor Of The Star:
All business interests, all Congress,
critics of the New Deal and the Presi-
dent seem to agree that removal or
tightening of the tax on undivided profits
Of industry will encourage investors to
make expansions to present industrial
properties and add new properties that
will call additional workers into private
enterprise.
Granting that this is true, where are
we going to find a substitute for the
loss of tax revenue?
The suggested substitutes are: Cd
Lower income tax exemptions. Cd Fed
eral sales tax. 90 More debt.
More debt is an idle gesture, meaning
less to any person of normal intelligence.
Income taxes are already reaching
persons who are forced to reduce their
purchases to meet the tax payments.
And sales tax, which is in truth q
purchase tax, forces the purchaser to
lower his budget of needs. A tax dollar
from these sources Is the same dollar
that would otherwise be spent over the
counter Of business.
Can it be expected that business will
be helped when its customers are being
held up at the door and robbed Of q
part of the money they intended spend
ing over the counters of that business?
Will this business attract capital for
investment in expansion when it Is be-
ing robbed of customers that 1t is now
amply able to care for?
Does business fail to expand its
capacity to serve because a part Of its
profits derived from successful oper-
alton are taken from it, or is it because
they have no untitled orders and see no
prospects of additional customers?
So. What is the answer?
Representative U. S. Guyer recently
introduced a bill in Congress that pro-
poses tax on money lin possession" !"
This bill provides a field for taxation
permitting a relief of the burden on
business without shifting the load to
its customers. I have studied this bill
and the arguments supporting its need
In our economic system. In my belief
it furnishes the means OF solution to
our economic disturbances.
Considering the broad scope Of possi-
bilities offered in the measure and the
fact that true insight to its working
can only be had through careful study,
anxious to assist in bringing to light
helpful offerings get copy Of the bill
for survey and analysis. It is better that
its merits or faults be determined by a
thinking public than to loose it through
lack Of interest or to permit q useless
and harmful measure to be enacted into
law. Ask for copy of H. r. 1885,. Any
Senator or Representative in Congress
will gladly send you a copy upon re-
quest.
If you are sold on the idea Of some
sock the rich" scheme, you will be dis
appointed in this measure. It Is a sane
Offering based on a compliance with
natural economic forces

ish surrender Of Ku-el-amara to the
Turks.
1t was long threat at sea and history
records many outbreaks in prisons, asy-
lums and poorhouses, where it was nee
essary to make up large quantities of
food as cheaply as possible
For a long time the fact was known
that scurvy could be both cured and pre-
vented by fresh fruits and vegetables.
The reason was not known. With the
discovery of vitamin c, which, relatively
was easily accessible, there has been a
sense Of false security. 1t has been
assumed that scurvy is very rare and
that there Is no excuse for it.
But, apparently, there may be just
enough of the necessary element in the
diet Of thousands of Americans to pre-
vent the appearance Of the clinical syn
drome, but not enough to prevent the
confusing earlier stages of the malady.

Believes Courts Are to
Blame for Crime Record

To the Editor Of The Star:
think 1t is high time that the citi-
zens Of the City of Washington take
some steps to correct or call to the
attention of the proper authorities the
light sentences imposed on criminals
with long records of crime. and the
light amount of bail required in such
cases.
Here is man who has been arrested
twenty y-eight times for various crimes,
and he is given a sentence of one year,
and perhaps for good behavior will serve
less than year.
When he gets out Of prison he will
again start on his career of crime, and
if he gets in tight place perhaps shoot
one of our officers, or else the victim
whom he holds up. 1t seems to me that
we do not make it hard enough for
criminals in this day, and something
should be done about it.
Why not make the bail so high that
the criminal will not be able to enjoy
the freedom of the streets of Washing
ton? If they can supply the amount of
bail asked. then raise it so that they
cannot put it up. This method, plus
a good, long sentence, should do much
to lessen crime. There is nothing wrong
with our Police Department. The fault
is the light sentences the criminals
get here. F. K. HEUPEL.
