RELUCTANCE NO REASON
Bt cause An idea is abhorrent is
no reason for its not being carried
cut. The idea of pulling a tooth is
abhorrent, but often a tooth must
be pulled in the interest^ of healJi
and comfort. The Idea of taking but
an appendix, of cutting off a limb,
cf opt rating for cancer, is abhor-
rent; but often those things must
be done io save life. To send our
line young men out to be slashed
with bayonets, mangled with shot
ar.d shell, is abhorrent; but we have
Le en compelled to do that in de-
lense of human rights and life The
idea of the states putting a hu
man being to death is abhorrent;
but that is no argument against it
We should not overlook the fact
that unless we watch ourselves
carefully we are governed by im-
pulse. by iancy, ana not by sound
sense—we are controlled by our
likes and dislikes and not by what
Is best.
The world gets into most of its
troubles through humoring it* likes
and its dislikes. The men and wo
men who run afoul of the death
penally have done so through in-
dulging ihtir likes and dislikes. Be
cause we favor a thing is no reason
lor it and because we have an aver-
sion to a thing is no reason against
it. Because our sentiments point in
a certain direction is no indication
that that is the right direction
It is maintained and not without
reason that shortening a person's
normal span ol life deprives him of
the chance to gain vital knowledge
winch he might acquire were he
permitted to live. Opposed to that
contention is the indisputable fact
that a severe jolt will often teach
more in one minute that could ever
b'' learned in any ether way. The
expcticnccs that a condemned mur-
derer goes through during his trial
Ins stsv tn the death cell, and his
execution may do more to refine
and develop his soul than the expe
lienees of a dozen liictlines.
The death penalty savor® too
much of vengeance" declare those
opposed to it For the first time in
‘ts in;tore this country is in posi-
tion to impose the death penalty
without even the, semblance of ven
geance. There is no vengeance in
the heart of a nation that goes

to be executed Whin the state

Are You Talking About!”
Each looked at the other in as-
tonishment. It was plain that each
thought the other deceitful or de-
ceived.
As people always do when some-
one else does not see the same
person or the same truths they do.
Yesterday I went on a drive. A
few miles away from the beloved
Inn where we sometimes sivend our
winters there Is a mountain. From
Our Village I have looked at it
many hundreds cf times until the
graceful outl'ne is printed in my very
heart. A jjointed peak and a long
;. lupms cuiline longer on one side
than another, flat, country between
wtih perhaps the pines or birches ot
the foreground itched against the
mountain.
Yesterday lor the first tune I
drove completely around the moun-
tain and saw not one mountain but
many.
Here it towers just shghtlv above
a minor mountain in the fore-
ground. There it appears with its
contour completely changed by the
perspective Again it seems part
ol a range of hills, which invisi-
ble from Our village, are the low-
er mountains. And again it looms
an apparently remote peak of
which one catches just a tantaliz-
ing glimi>se at a bend in the road.

* from Washington, has intro-
duced a bill which is intend-
ed to keep the ship of state
on an even keel in times of
business disorders. Econo-
mists and students of gov-
ernmental affairs have • for
years sough* some means to
offset declines or business
depressions. The bill pro-
poses to stabilize industry by
doubling appropriations for
federal works in the event
of a business decline. Mr.
Jones says, "A local prosper-
ity reserve of public* works
would be created for release
in bad times.” For several
years this method of stabili-
zation has been suggested,
but the bill of Senator Jones
is among the first to be in-
troduced in the upper branch |
of Congress embodying such"
proposals. Supporters fo the
bill claim that if the same
plan was applied further to
states, counties aud cities in
their public, works that de-
pressions would be halted
before they got under way.
The federal government in
this way would become the
balance wheel which could
be set in motion in times of
business declines and would
include al) federal works,
such as buildings, roads,
flood control, etc.—in fact,
•any work to be done with
public funds. The construc-
tion industry is comprised of
many industries, brick, ce-
ment, tile, wood, lime, rock
and so on, and when these
industries are stimulated
other industries also will be
aided and stimulated as the
funds distributed to wage
earners would create a de-
mand for other products not
actually affected by the gov-
ernment program, according
to supporters of the bill.

CRIMINAL FENCES.
After local, state and na-
tional government have been
attempting for many years
to snppress theft by the ap-
prehension and punishment
of robbens, there has come
the realization that only one
side of the crime problem
was being affected, while the 1
other side, the men who
bought the stolen merchan-
dise, were seldom caught
and more seldom punished.
The National Crime Commis-
sion is sponsoring a bill in
Congress which will aid in
the elimination of the crim-
inal fence, and is expected
