HOw to Stop Kidnapings

Kidnapers! Abductors! Muir
derers!
How long are the American
people going to stand by and
see innocent children snatched
from their homes and muir
dered?
A fine lot Of statesmen we
have here on the "Hill" that ar
que over patronage while such
cases as the recent Levine and
Cash incidents are thrown in
their faces daily with streaming
headlines.
Have these men no backbone?
Or are they indifferent to this
great crime which flourisheS in
America alone? Or could it be
that they are so busy oiling
their own political wheels that
they don't have time for a piece
of legislation that doesn't per
NIT them to spend more money
back home?
How are we going to stop
kidnaping?"
That's the stereotyped answer
from every Congressman when
such a law is suggested. Well,
here's the answer:
l. Make it q penitentiary Of
Tense for all parents to delay re-
porting to authorities when a
child or other member Of the
family has been abducted.
2. Make it a similar offenSe
for anyone to pay q ransom.
3. Require authorities to guard
home of any person reporting
an abduction; have postal au-
thorities intercept all mail and
phone calls until case is closed
and child returned.
Such a law, fearlessly en-
forced, may, unfortunately, re-
suit in the death of one child.
But one such case would be suf-
ficient to prove that kidnapping
was no longer a profitable
racket in America. And, as bad
as it may sound, certainly such
a racket would end quickly. If
this seems inhuman, then count
the deaths from such cases dur
ing the past years. J.E.H.
