THREE WAYS TO PREVENT
RELEASE OF GUILTY
One of the things which the last year
brought us was a new attitude toward our
crime problem. We are no longer dis-
couraged about it or ready to admit that
the problem is insoluble. Some of our most
notorious lawbreakers are under the
ground and some of them are behind the
bars and we are beginning to see that
putting them there isn't an impossible
job after all.
Nevertheless our machinery for deal-
ing with criminals needs overhauling; and
one of the places that needs it the most is
the courtroom where the crook stands
trial.
Prof. Mason Ladd of the University of
Iowa discussed needed changes in the law
of evidence before the 32d annual meet-
ing of the Association of American Law
Schools in Chicago recently.
There are wavs says Prof. Ladd by
which we can make the conviction of guil-
ty persons easier without increasing the
hazards which an innocent man must face
when he goes on trial. One of them is
by lightening up the laws governing an
alibi defense.
Let us provide suggests Prof. Ladd
that where an accused person plans to
plead an alibi he be required to give no-
tice to the state’s attorney in advance of
the trial.
As things stand now a man being tried
in San Francisco can assert that he was in
New ‘York when the crime was committed
and it is practically impossible for the
prosecution to meet his claim when it is
sprung suddenly in the middle of the trial.
If advance notice were required the
state could make the necessary investiga-
tion ahead of time and marshal evidence
to refute the claim if the claim were
false. Some states already have such a
law; Prof. Ladd suggests that the law
should be made universal.
Then he conitnues the state should be
allowed to comment when a prisoner takes
advantage of his constitutional rights and
jpefuses ot testify. In 42 of pur states the
criminal may refuse to testify and the
prosecutor may not remark upon it in any
way.
’ * Surely no innocent man’s rights would
be jeopardized if the state were permitted
to draw inferences from such silence.
Lastly. Prof. Ladd urges that criminal
law be revised to permit the impeach-
ment of one’s own witnesses. As things
stand now a crook may bribe or intimi
date the state’s star witness so that that
witness on the stand will give testimony
contrary to his former statements—but
the state cannot expose that witness before
the jury and the criminal wins by a tech-
nicality.
Here again a simple revision in pro-
cedure would make it harder for a guilty
man to win acquittal.
None of these changes would increase
the hazards for an innocent man. As
Prof. Ladd suggests they would simply
provide a fair trial for the state as well
as for the defense.

All Classes Included
In School Delinquents
By DR. MORRIS F13HBEIN
Editor Journal of the American .Medical Association
and of Hygeia. the Health MagaMno
You will find many varieties of delinquent children.
They Include those who are not able to hold their
own in groups of children; those who are unruly and
who refuse to submit to the usual customs of school
and community; and those emotionally unstable
who have neurotic tendencies.
When studies are made it is found that delinquent
boys and girls live in general about the same as other
boys and girls in the public schools. They come from
middle-class homes and poor homes but occasionally
from homes of the well-to-do.
On the other hand when the occupatons of then-
fathers are considered it is found that delinquent
children come more frequently from fathers who are
unskilled laborers and who have not themselves ap-
proached higher education and the higher profes-
sions.
In the main the proportion of deluiquent children
from any social-economic class is equal to the pro-
portion of that class in the population
* m a
Although there may be a alight tendency for more
children from poorer families than from well-to-do
families to become delinquent the economic picture
is not the dominant one in causing delinquency. The
questions of heredity and of home conditions are
most Important.
Broken homes are more prevalent among delin-
quent children than among children generally. When
the home is broken up by the death or the desertion
of a parent delinquency is more likely to occur.
Forty-nine per cent of delinquent girls and 37 per
cent of delinquent boys came from homes in which
one or both parents were dead.
In general public school children arc tound in only
17 per cent of cases to come from homes in wheth
one or both parents may be dead. Homes broken by
separation ol the parents are also much more prev-
alent among delinquent children than among pub-
lic school children generally.
• • •
Moreover these homes are sometimes disturbed 111
other ways. The mothers of 50 per cent of delin-
quent girls were found to be employed outside their
homes and the mothers of 43 per cent of such boys
were also employed. Roomers lived in 19 per cent
of homes of delinquent girls and in 23 per cent of
homes of delinquent boys.
You can see from this that the conditions in the
home are of greatest significance. Delinquent chil-
dren are on less sympathetic terms with their par-
ents: they confide in them less they receive less In-
formation about the fundamental facts of sex than
do children who are in the public schools generally.
When parents can observe the amusements of the
child supervise its leisure time and its choice of
friends take cart of the question of staying out late
at night and look after many other interests of the
child concerned in the question of delinquency they
will do much to keep the child from becoming delin-
quent.
It is a false doctrine that the king cannot even
love someone who is helpful and devoted to him.—
Julm Maniu. leader of the Rumanian Peasant Patty
referring ot King Carol's devotion to Magda Lupescu.
If you want liberty in the highest degree you can-
portation Is old-fashioned wait until you see what
happens to it in the next few years.—William B-
Stout automoitve and airplane engineer.
We will practically remake man in the next 50
years.—Charles F. Kettering famous automotive
engineer.
People should be allowed to make money during a
war. but they shouldn't be allowed to keep it.—Ber-
nard M. Baruch.

The World
At a Glance
By LESLIE EICHEL
Central hreu Staff Writer
NEW YORK Jan. a.—Despite the
clamor over the federal deficit it is
not so high as President Roosevelt
had estimated publicly.
It will be recalled that in an-
nouncing his recover}’ program the
president had estimated a deficit
averaging approximately 8602000.-
000 a month.
Actual deilcit for November was
9392.000. 000.
But receipts also are below the
presidential estimate.
Receipts for November amounted
to only $247000000.
It had been estimated they would
amount to 9331.000.000.
Actual expenditures totaled 8839.-
000.000—against an estimate of 9933-
000 000.
Public debt rose to a new all-time
high—$27299000000. or $705000000
higher than the wartime peak in
August. 1919.
The debt will be more than a bil-
lion higher as of January 1 due to
recent borrowings.
President Rocaevelt's estimate
called for an increase in public debt
to $33 743 000.000
Interest on tne present date is
9850.000. 000 annually.
An "Illusion?”
Frederic Jenny is financial editor
of Le Temps a leading French news-
paper.
But hu> news which are creat-
ing comment abroad are stated
chiefly in an article he has written
for Lloyds Bank Review of London.
A year ago he wrote an article
for the same journal asserting that
Roosevelt • experiment" wa& a “fond
illusion.”
Now. a year later he says his
view merely has been confirmed—
there has been no economic im-
provement in the world.
M. Jenny believes there are no
new economic paths to reoovery.
He would turn again to the age-
old formulas of removing trade bar-
riers abolishing monetary instab-
ility and link the leading curren-
cies with boyd
He terms as fallacies such meas-
ures as restrictions of production
artificial raising and maintenance
of Dnces and inflation of credit.
He would develop free trade to re-
store division of labor among na-
tions as it exists among people—as
he puts it.
Of economic nationalism. M.
Jenny says:
‘ It rests upon the stupendous fal-
lacy that man s neighbor Is his en-
emy. In the long run. Instead of
creating work it confuses effort:
instead of reducing unemployment
it paralvzes progress: instead of
stimulating recovery it deepens de-
pression at home and abroad.”
• • •
Autos
Trades supplying parts to the
auto industry are the busiest in
years in fact they will enter the
New Year with machines whirring
at a great pace.
The demand is chiefly from man-
ufacturers of low-pnced cars

n jJ-'^0BtU^STATf*
January 8 1835. — One of the de-
cree* of the present Mexican CCih-
rez* was an unthinkable thing to
Anyio.American citizen* of the
Mexican Government in Texas. It
was that the militia should be reduc-
ed to one man for every 500 of
the population and that all citizens
not enrolled in it should surrender
their arms. Texans were prosper-
ing and affairs of government nev-
er touched some directly enough to
make their operations noticeable but
this decree was not that kind of
legislation. Old and young grasped
the seriousness of a law under which
they would be called before a gov-
ernment official to humbly give up
their rifles and other firearm* and
which meant that there would be
only about a dozen Mexican soldiers
to protect the entire country from
Indian raids. Under ordinary con-
ditions the Comanches had always
toyed with Mexican garrisons. There
was no one to appeal to however
lor a state law denied the right of
lie tit ion to more than three persons
on the theory thgt It was an as-
sumption of the voice of the people
which ursurped society's rights and
excited disorder. It was now coming
forcibly to the realization of set-
tlers from the United States of the
north that under the new order in
Mexico they had exchanged citizen-
ship in a government of the ballot-
box for citizenship in a government
of‘the musket.
To prove he believes in states'
rights Harry Hopkins has dropped
nearly 4.000000 from federal relief
rolls
A New York doctor has invented
an instrument that detects the
sound of peoples nerves. That
wouldn't be needed in the case of
many people whoee nerve we know.

WASHINGTON
By George Dor no
G. O. P.—Now that Congress i*
sprinting around the first lap you
will hear a lot of talk about liber-
alizing the republican party.
Veteran dockers predict that long
after the boys settle down to the
slow grind you will still find the G-
O. P. running on the same old legs.
Senator Borah and others are de-
manding a republican new deal but
there is a lot of sober thought be-
hind the decision of those who are
intent on keeping party manage-
ment in present hands.
• • •
In the first place Herbert Hoover
is still titular head of the party. He
has told friends he does not care
who takes over the reins—so long
as they aren't enemies of the Hoov-
er principles. This counts for some-
thing because after all Mr. Hoover
polled 15.000.000 votes in the course
of being repudiated.
Ogden Mills—whose influence
should not be underestimated—has
what many regard as an excellent
reason for avoiding an immediate
shake-up. Prospects aren't too rosy
for the G O. P. in 1936. If there
is a reorganization this year and
the republicans take another beating
next year the reorganizing will have
to be done ail over again.
Senator Charles McNary of Ore-
gon—minority floor leader of the
upper house—has similar views.
He adopted a watchful-waiting atti-
tude during the last session and
through the recent congressional
campaign. He was criticized by
many of his party asoclates before
last November’s votes were counted
—but he s still republican floor
leader.
m m m
If present counsellors have their
way. republican senators and con-
gressmen will vote for necessary
emergency measures and be satisfied
with putting themselvee on record as
opposed to everything with a left-
wingish flavor.
Meanwhile there will be guerilla
warfare in the hustings. Ex-Senator
Henry Allen of Kansas for instance
is just back from England. He plans
to take the stump and tell the com-
mon people how poorly recovery is
being promoted here as compared
with Britain. His public utterances
are expected to dwell heavily on
waste of federal funds.
Other speakers will be doing the
same. There are plenty of ex-s
available for the job since the last
two elections. .
• • •
Poison—Henry P. Fletcher is ser-
enely In the saddle at Republican
National Headquarters. He intends
to stay there despite the throaty;
demands of Borah et al that he ab-
dicate.
Fletcher Is a handsomely-smiling
man with a pleasing personality but ;
he can get his back up as far as
the next one. It's up around the
roof of the Empire State Building
right now He might have given
heed had criticism come from oth-
er quarters. But Borah Is another
name for poison to him.
• • •
Regulator*—The fissure between
NRA and the Federal Trade Com-
mission is assuming the proportions
of the Grand Canyon.
FTC—If you will pardon alpha-
betical allusions—was set up to pre-
scribe fair trade practices for in-
dustry generally. NRA has coppered
this function to a marked degree
m the last year and a half.
A week or so before Congress con-
vened President Roosevelt had the
full membership of the trade com-
mission in for an unpublicized White
House conference. What went on in
the presidential study remains a{
secret among those present but the
commissioners have been happy
ever since.
Industry would give three rous-
ing cheers if the PTC reclaimed its
jurisdiction over fair trade prac-
tices. When the Commission de-
cides a firm is taking undue advan-
tage of a competitor it cites the
firm for a hearing. If found guilty
the companv is ordered to cease and
desist. No financial damage is done
unless the desist order is ignored.
With NRA is has been different j
The crack-downs have been few but
the threats have been many. That
sort of regulation gives business men
the jumps.
• • •
Ignored—NRA and FTC came to
trips last in connection with the
Commission's report on what's
wrong with the chain store business.
PTC spent between three and four
years and nearly a million dollar*
investigating. It put the findings
into 33 volumes.
During the course of that investi-
gation NRA came into existence.

Codes were framed which dealt with
such matters as price-fixing loss-
leaders. prize contests etc.
But NRA wasn’t mentioned in the
33 volumes. The Trade Commission
decided to diagnose the case and
prescribe remedies without a single
consultation with the other doctor.

Navy—More money for warships—
34 new big ones—is planned It Isn't
because Japan has denounced the
naval treaty. It's in spite of the
expected charge that the U. S. is
starting on a naval race.
The new ships will be within
treaty limits. They represent build-
ing that should have been done dur- [
ing Hoovers administration—when'
nobody could have suggested a na-
val race.
Construction of warships gives
work in a thousand directions and
produces something worthwhile—
better national defense. This ex-
penditure of public works money
finds favor in congress and will be
approved notwithstanding mis-
taken inferences that may be drawn
in Japan.
Don't forget tat a naval race
cant begin while the treaty is ini
force and It wont expire until
December 1936.

NOW CO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XXXIX
FOR a week Allan Vincent kept
his promise. He spent most of
bis time in the studio. He and Ann
met only occasionally at meals. Oe
casionally she ran across him In the
hall when be was coming or leav-
ing the house.
They bad met this afternoon and
Allan had greeted her tn a friendly
oasual way. *Tve been busy as the
deuce. Did yon feel neglected?**
“Terribly. I’ve been busy toa"
“I'm going over to the Brent
house tonight. Tbe owner and bis
girl will be there. Will you come
with me?"
“I'm sure those people won't
want strangers around.” Her tone
was doubtful.
“They won’t know you are there.
No—1 guess I'm wrong. They
couldn’t miss you "
There was such eagerness in his
eyes Ann hadn't the heart to refuse
him.
They drove out early after din*
nor but lights were lo the bouse
when they arrived.
“I had the electricity turned on."
Allan explained "because we have
planned to do some of the work at
night. The owner Is Impatient to
have the Job finished."
They nad driven close to the big
gray roadster before Ann sew it.
Suddenly ber heart teemed to turn
over and then be etlll.
It was Psisr’s carl No. It couldn't
be. How foolish to think there
would be only one big gray road
ster In this buge city. There must
be scores llks It There must be!
“Whose oar Is that?" she asked
her voice low and husky.
"Belongs te tbs chap who owus
the place."
“What la his name?"
“Kendall. I didu't tell you be-
tore?"
"I don't think so." Ann said
through stiff lips. “And the girl?"
"The dizzy blond. Her name is
Bennett."
Allan stepped out and cams
around to open the door for Ann.
She said in a low voice. "I've
changed my mind. I don’t went to
go in. Allan. I don't want te meet
those people."
“Don't be silly. You can’t stay out
here."
“1 want to. I’ll be comfortable
ont here — more comfprtable than
meeting—those people. Please go!"
• • •
ALLAN stared at her but ber
** lace wee In tbe shadows half
turned from him. »
"Ail right. I’ll try not to be gone
long.
Ha walked away.
Ann put her face down In her
hands covering It with trembling
fingers It couldn’t be true!. But It
waa.

She bad been helping Allan fur*
nish a place (or the woman who
bad taken her husband’s love
No. that was being melodramatic
Accusing Peter of unfaithfulness
How could Valeria steal something
from Ann that she bed never bad?
Her head was throbbing terribly
Peter was in tbers walking through
the rooms with Valeria. Perhaps
Allan was telling them about the
white cbinu with tba blue and mul-
berry flowers about the ruffled
white eurtalns at the windows
Allan would be urging her to
assist him with more Ideas would
be insisting she corns over to see
the placs Not ones hut many
times Not becausa ha needed ber
help but because he waa lonely.
Because he was buoyed up by ber
imagination and interest and be
thought be was In love with her
"I couldn’t bear coming hers" Ann
decided. "I’ve suffered enough al-
ready."
She would give up ber job. If
she bad gone the week before when
she bad learned bow Allan felt this j
last terrible hurt would have bees
spared ber.
They were coming out now. A
tall youpg man stood In the door
way. That was Peter and tbat was
Valeria beside him. Ann felt suf-
focated.
Sbe beard Allan say *T11 burry
along. 1 have a friend In the car
waiting for me."
"Why didn’t you bring him In?”
Peter asked.
"It's a girl friend.” Allan laugbed.
’She wouldn’t come In. Some craay
notion sbe might be Intruding
Good night.”
Peter walked a little way with
him. stopping not tar from the car.
He could see • girl’s head ell
bouetted against the window. There
was something vaguely familiarj
about the way her bead was lifted
Suddenly he had a wild desire to
see her closer But Allan was In
the car and the motor began to
throb.
IJETER walked back to Valeria
and helped her Into his car. They
were scarcely off the grounds when
he said. "Vat I’m not going on
with the bouse.”
“Peter?*'
“Mlllleent was right It wits a
foolish thing to do. I'm sure Ann
is not coming back. You didn’t b*
I levs she would either. You
thought It would be good (or me
to bare something to da I can’t
go on with It"
"But. Peter. I don't see how you
| could stop the work now. Things
hare been ordered men engaged.
There’e the time Mr. Vincent has
'pent In planning."
| "I’ll take care of an the expense
but I’m going to stop the whole
business. I’ll close the piece or
sell tt."
"What In the world has bap
poned?"
"I don't know. I Just decided to-
night."
Valeria was silent. Peter must
not be allowed to put this ridiculous
Impulse Into action it might end
everything for ber. It would give
her no excuse to be with him.
"Let’s not talk about It." the
said.
"It's settled." Peter saJd. "I've
been wasting e lot of time when I
could have been looking for Ann.
And doing things she woulld like
me to be doing."
"What things?” in the darkness
Valeria's Ups eurved contemp-
tuously.
"Working on a plan I have in
mind about Kendallwood—- If I can
persuade grandfather It should be
done."
Mora of those tiresome plane
for building up that horrid fac-
tory town. Vaiaria decided.
“Let'a drive a while” she said.
"There's a wonderful moon to-
Qight. Had you noticed?”
Peter hadn't noticed. He
glanced up now and thought the
moon looked cold remote un-
friendly.
Valeria was thinking. “He
treats me as though 1 were an In-
animate wall beside him Instead
of e woman."
Would be atop the ear ao they
could look at the river for a mo-
ment?
Peter looked at Valeria anM
smiled a little. But be stopped"
the car lit a clgaret and looked
at tbe mooo at tbe water. It was
picturesque. The moon had
turned the river to silver. Now
and tben soft clouds scudded
across the sky. Then tbe moou
would appear again and the waves
would pick up tbe silver sheen.

1/A LERI A was dressed in white.
' a frock with many tiny ruf-
fles blossoming into a little cape-
let over ber shoulders. Tbe tiny
ruffles fluttered In tbe breeze
against Peter’s coat.
"Clgaret Val?"
-No. thanks."
"Isn’t the moon beautiful" Va-
leria asked as the silence contin-
ued.
"Yes."
Valeria sighed.
"Tired?"
"No. Not tired."
"What’s wrong?"
She did not answer.
Peter turned to look at her. Hor
eyes met bis and he saw they
were full of tears. Her lips
trembled.
"Vail I’m afraid I’ve seemed
unkind. It isn't that I don’t ap>
predate all you’ve tried to do for
me.”
“But I haven’t made you any
happier. And 1 tried so bard. I
wanted to so mucb—”
"You bave beiped. 1 don’t
know wbat 1 would bave done
without you tbe last few weeks.’1
"Peter!" it was almost a whis
per.
Tbc breeze stirred her hair just
then. She was so close that some
of tbc loosened balr was blown*
against bis cheek. Valeria leaned
closer to him. There was a faint
fragrance taint but strong too.
like crushed flowers.
Peter turned again slowly
looked dowa and saw bar soft
lips raised to bis. The soft pout-
ing Ups ha had kiasad hundreds
of limes.
His arm slid around Valeria.
