suit in higher quality cream and dairy

Americas Once Public Enemy
No. 1 Was Not Always Bad
Man Says Evelyn
JOHN GETS GIRL A LAWYER

Camden, S. c., April 17.-John
Dillinger, for several years number
one public enemy in the ranking of
the Federal Intelligence bureau, has
been dead for several years.
This week, Evelyn Frechette, Dill
fingers ''moll," an underworld par
ance for ".girl friend" came into the
State of South Carolina, the birth
place of Melvin Purvis, whose trig-
ger-finger ended the criminal career
and life TO the famous killer" Thus
is fate.
The "gangster's moll" does not
bear Purvis any ill-will because the
famous Oman led the Federal
'dicks" in the ambush that was set
for Dillinger in front of the Bio
graph theater on Lincoln avenue in
Chicago.
"Purvis was doing his duty" says
Evelyn. "Johrny got what was COM
ing to him. He was an enemy to So
ciety. He had killed, he had robbed
and he owed debt to society, which
is the law. He paid for his life of
crime by succumbing to the storm
of bullets poured into his body in
that cobble-stone alley on the Chi
cago northwest side. He died just as
he told me he wanted to die He
knew in his heart that the law
would catch up to him and if he
did not die fighting he would be
swept into eternity either from the
scaffold or in the "hot seat"

girl. She was born at Neopit, on the
Menominee Indian reservation, and
is now 20 years of age. She grew up
at Neopit but when she was in her

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
ECONOMIC SUICIDE"

1t is probably mere coincidence that the report
of the International Institute of Agriculture, de-
nouncing governmental crop restriction follows 50
closely the Inauguration of our new COTTON
subsidy plan. But the coincidence lends added
point to the institutes scathing criticism OF the
policy of restricting agricultural production with
view to adapting it to dwindling demand"
From its headquarters in Rome this independent
organization, founded by American initiative over
80 years ago, issues periodic summaries OF world
agricultural trends. The United States, like every
other important nation, is member of the lnsti-
tute, the scientific detachment and repute of which
give great Importance to its formal announce
ments.
So it is worth thought when the international
Institute of Agriculture, in its current report,
places the United States "under the Roosevelt ad-
ministration," second only to 'the totalitaran
states and Soviet Russia" in its devotion to gov
ernmental RECOMMENDATION of agriculture and trade.
This "methodical intervention of governments, :"
the report continues, has in many cases changed
the structure of agriculture $50 profoundly that
the effect is bound to be lasting"
As though to indorse the institutes findings
comes our cotton loan and subsidy policy,
with all its implications for extension to other
"basic crops" and consequent renewal of open re-
striction programs.
Such planned scarcity, the institute points out,
is far more potent in retarding recovery than is
Secretary Huls trade agreements program in ad-
vancing it. The Hull program, the report asserts,
could not be said TO have succeeded to a marked
extent because "the general trend of commercial
policy continues to point to further restriction"
These are cutting criticisms, the more so because
issued from so objective restrained and authorita-
tive a source 1t is unpleasant to hear that as
others see us we are ranked next to Germany,
Italy and Russia as country experimenting with
economic suicide" But at least we have the cold
comfort of knowing that this sharp comment is an
honest, as well an expert, Washington

UNEMPLOYABILITY

There has been a good deal of suspicion for a
long time that most of the estimates of unempoy-
ment in the United States greatly out of joint
While it is just possible that the number of peo-
pie who are not now working at remunerative Ia
or, but who have worked at some time or other
in their lives, may be not far from the unemp'oy-
ment figures, we are beginning to understand that
there is a very great number of "unemployables'
n the United States, and that probably most of
these are in both the official and unofficial est
mates of the unemployed.
Now there are several kinds of unemployabieS.
There are the aged, the infirm, the mentally de-
ficient the lazy, the incompetent and the sackers.
In addition to these there seems to have grown
petent and the slackers, are the border line of
unemployabes These are the folks who have found
themselves on public charity-the welfare-and
like it.
They are unemployable, not because they are
unable to work-athough long idleness may have
rendered them more or less physically uuft-but
because they are no longer disposed to work
There are many industries in which the demand
for workers is greater than the supply.
Employment may be more of problem for the
unskilled and unframed, those who are not pre-
who are not only prepared but are willing and
anxious to work.
The demand today is for workers with skill and
training.
Lack of that preparation is one of the modern
reasons for unemployment, and also unemploy-
ability.-Rock Hill, S. c., Herald.
