Barnum Was Right

A first lesson about the wileS of racketeering
was forciby brought to the writer many years ago.
In fact it was at tender age of eleven summers,
when mysterious letter from Madrid SPAIN arrived
at the parental home Its address designated that it
was for the head of the house.
This letter was mysterious for its strange stamp,
its peculiar address and its heart rendng plea for
financial assistance for prisoner in Spanish bas-
title. For immediate financial aid the donor was
promised huge of money. After carefully read
ing the letter. Dad said that they looking for
suckers and we received first establishment
of the human race. 1t racket, and no doubt,
the sponsors caught many innocent victims as
suckers.
That was many years ago, and that racket mas,
most likely, year in and year out brought to the
racketeer some easy money. Barnum said there's
one born every minute-and no truer statement was
ever made.
Investigators of the Minnesota Securities Com
mission have been ordered to Adrian, Minnesota,
to stamp out the fabulous and fantastic Drake estate
swindle which has yielded golden harvest for con-
fdence men from Iowa in southern Minnesota.
This ancient swindle plan, which has also oper-
ated for years. in fact forty years in southern
Minnesota alone, has taken in many gulible and
innocent victims. Secret meetings have been held
in Adrian raise funds to settle the ancient estate
of Sir Francis Drake, racketeers say, has been IN
the courts of England for many years Victims
are promised large share of the estate for their
investment. This racket was exposed in leading
magazine and newspapers sometime ago. Yet peo-
pie fall the golden glowing words of the racketeer
and hope to the pot of gold at the end of the
rainbow through their foolish investment" Why?
Well, Barnums words still true.

This volume contains a great

actual conditions in Russia, how
the Soviet system has worked out,
it's influence and reaction on the

be expected in the future as the

Valuable Traits
Taught Youths

Boys in Alexandria, Va, who enter
The Star-American Legion Soap Box
Derby will have the hearty co-opera-
ton of their own public schools.
This announcement was made to-
day by T. E. Williams. superin-
tendent of Alexandria schools and
one of the educators who Is serving
as sponsor for the Derby this year.
Several boys from Alexandria
participated in the Derby last year,
and we hope there will be larger
representation in the races this sum-
mer," Mr.. Williams said.
Il can approve the Soap Box
Derby both as an educator and as a
private citizen. Styles in education
change. as in everything else, and
today we are striving not only to
teach the proverbial three RS and
other basic formulas of education,
but also to stimulate in children the
ability and the desire to create and
to build.
Learns Valuable Lessons.
"A boy who goes into the Soap Box
Derby and builds his own miniature
racing car not only learns mechanics
or pursues his own mechanical in
clinations, but he learns to create,
to invent, to put his time to fine ad-
vantage and in the final analysis, he
gets good lessons in good sportsman
ship and public Safety continued
Mr.. Williams.
THE safety pledge, in which
every boy promises to drive his
Derby racer carefully at all times, is
very fine adjunct of the program.
The element of sportsmanship comes
IN building a racer that conforms
with the rules and racing it with
the determination to win or lose
like a man.
The Star. the American Legion
and the Legion's Americanism Com
mission are to be congratulated upon
sponsoring the Soap Box Derby for
boys 10 to IS years old in the WASH
lngton metropolitan area" he said.
Mr.. Williams announced that
Alexandria boys who enter the
Derby may work on their racers in
the high school manual training
shops. They will be given credit for
a completed project when their work
