THE TIMES CHALLENGE US
The times challenge US to
love one another because il is
a sad fact that love has not yet
won a full victory over hate.
Hatred has not yet spent its
force in the relations of city to
city or nation to nation. Mis-
trust, ill-will, vindictiveness
and revenge are still powerful
factors with which statesmen
must reckon in their efforts to
secure a good peace. 1.-THE chill
dren of the devii' to use the
strong phrase of st. John still
fan the fires of hate.
Let me be the first to take
off my. coat, roll up my sleeves
and go to work as a friend Of
business. ! am asking the bust
ness man for his moral support,
advice and encouragement so
that if elected I will be in a
better position to serve him.
The cross-section representa-
ton of the citizen, the business
man, the professional man, the
industriaiist working with the
mayor and city administration
as a team are essential to
achieve the forward progress
that should be ours. !.
As employer or as employee,
we should observe the Golden
Rule: "All things whatever You
would that men should do to
you, even so do you also to
them"
Sincerely,
VINCENT ROSS.

officers would investigate the
circumstances of the offense and
the character and background
of the offender and report to
the court before sentence is
pronounced. 1t would then be
up to the courts 20 either hand
down a prison sentence, or place
the offender on probation in the
light of facts uncovered by the
investigation. These facts would
also be used to weed out poor
probationary risks.
Probation would in no sense
be leniency, and the conditions
of probation would be designed
TO meet the needs of individual
cases. In all cases il means su-
pervision. In addition il means
replacement of the individual
in normal circumstances so far
as is possible. with a job, a
home and wholesome associa-
tons. II means discipline, liv-
ing up to the conditions of pro-
baton. and accepting the re-
sponsibility of the support of
dependents. When a probationer
fails to live up to the conditions
imposed he can be promptly
jailed without a retrial on the
original charges.
Adult probation has proven
highly beneficial in other and
neighboring states. 1t has shown
that a large proportion of of
Tenders who complete a proba-
ton term continue to go straigh.

The writer of this column IS
scheduled to take part in a pam
Ell discussion of a proposed adult
probation law for Mississippi,
in Jackson today under the
sponsorship of the Mississippi
Association on Crime and De
linquency. At the present time
there is no such law in Missis-
sippi and the courts have no
choice but to commit an offend
er to prison after being found
guilty, except in the case of
some few minor offenses. For
many youthful first offenders
an enlightened probation law
could be an effective means of
rehabilitation and restoration to
useful citizenship. where a
prison term and association
with old and hardened Grimm
ais simply crystalizes the pat
tern for the offender and lays
the groundwork for a criminal
career, a ruined life and one
more burden ON society, and a
costly one at that.
Adult probation is largely
based on the belief that Grim
inal justice is not administered
merely for the sake of punish
ment but, also, wherever posi-
BILE, to equip offenders for use
full lives. Under the present
proposal it would be a process
of treatment prescribed after
investigation by the court of
persons convicted of criminal
offenSes. Competent probation

This yard is being closed strictly

if enough of the civic organiza-

We just cant help Dragging
about it. The beat, that is, we
scored on the contract award
to ingalls,. And we've got to
report this bit of comedy that
occurred Monday afternoon.
Scene: The office of w. r.
Guest, executive vice president
of ingalls,. The phone rings. 1t
is long distance. 1t is for Mr.
Guest. On the other end was
the publisher of the Mobile
paper.

you, MI. Guest" said the pubs
Usher.
Yes answered Mr.. Guest,
what is it?"
you have been awarded a
ship contract"
I'VE have?" replied the ship
builder. There jumped into his
mind the thought of the Mis-
sissippi Shipping Company's
SIS, 600, 900 liner for which con-
tract has not yet been awarded.
What ship"
THE p~rototype!"
There was a pause. Then:
why, we had that in an extra
down here friday" said Mr..
Guest.
Up music. Fade out on
asleep in the Deep"
That publisher is perhaps
wondering what happened 10
the Associated Press. A story
published this spring in Harp
er's could enlighten him. The
article, by ar anonymous Wash
ington correspondent, told how
the big shot by-line writers
cover the nations capital.
They sit at the press clsb wait
ing for messengers to bring
them handouts from federal of
fees. Then they sit down and
rewrite The handouts, carefully
leading off with those by-lines.
Some have been known just to
write the by-line on the hand
out and wire it out word for
word.
We can picture what hap
pened in Washington Friday
when the contract was award
ed. The Pulitzer prize winners
were slipping martins at the
club or had started on their
weekending. II was late in the
afternoon when the contract was
awarded. The handouts didn't
get around soon enough. They
were scanned by the famous
newshounds Monday morning.
Immediately the word flashed
around the world.

thereafter. By contrast, the sue
cessful adjustment of persons
to normal life after a prison term
is very low. However, proba-
ton, like most other work with
human beings, depends for its
success on the people who adj
minister it. W. have all Wit
messed the abuses of the state
parole law under which pris-
oners (mostly Negroes) have
been paroled to politicians and
put to work as either household
servants or farm laborers. De
spite many charges, no action
has ever been taken in the mat
ter and we suspect the abuses
continue. That, however, is an
other subject.
When adult probationers are
carefully selected and super
vised by competent probation
officers, two things are accom-
plished: by the supervision of
released offenders and the
prompt return of violators, the
public is protected; a large pro-
portion of those supervised are
reclaimed for good citizenship,
family ties remain %unbroken,
human lives salvaged. A state
law to provide these things
would, to say the least, be a
sound and enlightened step for
the legislature to take in 1850.

Earlier studies by Pearson and
Gunter -(see photography, also
on the Texas Coast, covered six
hundred stomachs of Speckled
Trout and Reddish taken over a
period of two years and revealed
less than two dozen Menhaden
present as food. There is no rea-
son whatever to believe that the
conditions in the Mississippi
Sound regarding these relations
between game fish, other COM
mercial fish and Menhaden diff
fer in any way whatever from the
conditions in Texas.
Furthermore, where the Men
baden fishery has been carried
on over a period of one hundred
years on the East Coast, there is
no valid evidence available to
show that the Menhaden indus
try by its activities has caused
any decrease in the supply OF
game fish and other commercial
fish or in the food supply for
these game fish and other COM
