W. Fahy, postoffice inspector is held in the Kane county jail, under bonds of $50,000. He was arrested in his pri- vate office in the Federal building af- ter warrents had been issued on com- plaint of five eastern inspectors. Fahy who was regarded as an “ace” among postoffice employees and who obtained the evidence which con- victed Big Tim Murphy and sent the $838,000 robber to prison, said the arrest was due to a frameup by eriminal enemies and professional men who aspired to his position. CHARGED WITH CRIME Chicago, Aug. 27.--William Fahy, regarded as one of the aces of the local force of postal inspectors, was arrested in his office in the federal building late yesterday, charged with being the matter mind of the recent coe mail robbery at Rondout, a. Fahy immediately was taken be- fore a federal judge and his bond was fixed at $50,000. He made no ef- fort to raise the bond and was plac- ed in the county jail at Geneva, Ill. Watched For Weeks Fahy’s arrest came after weeks of Nurveillance, it was said, during which he was said to have been seen frequently in the company of men suspected of connection with the Rondout robbery, and to have been in ation with other men who ious parts of the country after they were suspected of compli- city in the robbery, Fahy has been instrumental in clearing up some of the most famous postal department robber Tt was through his efforts that “Big Tim” Murphy, former labor and gang lead- er, was sent to the Leavenworth, Kang., federal penitentiary for parti- cipation in the $1,000,000 Dearborn st station mail robbery. The arrest was made by Chief Deputy United States Marshal Sam Howard, after Fahy had been under the surveillance of Charles H. Clara- han, of the postal inspectors service in New York, for three weeks.

By Charles P. Stewart NEA Service Writer Washington, Aug. 27—Law and law enforcement are two different things. American law, as law, as improv- ing, according to Attorney General Harlan F. Stone. But is it enforced, respected? The public thinks not, the attor- ney general admits. Is the public right? The uttorney general is afraid so, at the present time at any rate, for he says “the actual administration of justice in these United States is in a period of decline which began before the war and was greatly ac- celerated by it.” Be it said, however, that the at- torney general is not a pessimist. Having faith. in the American bar and the American people, he believes we will pass soon into a period of improvement. But why don’t we do something now, with a view to improvement? We do, says the attorney general, but not the right thing. We doctor symptoms, not the disease. Suppose law enforcement goes wrong, through official incompet- ence, corruption or both. There are causes for incompetence and corruption, Do we remove the causes? No, we remove the officials; maybe pun- ish them. Or, if lawyers take a hand in at- tempting to reform, what’s their method? More law, more procedure—better perhaps. But in either case—symptoms, not the disease, are treated. “What is the disease?” the attorney general. “For one thing, politics,” he an- swered. “The prosecutor's job ought to be taken out of politics. Why ‘should it be. political, any more than a judge's?” “Would you have prosecutors ap- pointed?” “Maybe not, but I'd make their terms longer, anyway—during good behavior, even.” The attorney general dwelt on the weaknesses of prosecutors’ offices; showing how politics affects them— not so much money, but political in- fluence. He pointed to their lack of system, to the laxness, slackness of their methods, I asked “But isn’t politics just a reflection of public opinion, anyway?” STONE The attorney general didn’t answer definitely. But in a recent address before the American Bar Association, he id: “It is axiomatic that a people, in the long run, will get the kind of justice they deserve.” And: “It is a truism that law enforcement cannot rise above its ultimate source in pop- ular respect for law.” The bar's standard needs improv- commented the attorney gen- he said in his ‘or a generation American Bar Association speech, “we have progressively lowered the bar's standard through the increas- ing number of those entering the legal profession without sufficient training, without the background of liberal education, experience and as- sociations which make for moral re- sponsibility, as well gs to develop the capacity for performing ade- quately the duties of the lawyer. “Not,” he added, “that I have any- thing against the poor boy who wants to enter the law. I was one myself. But the poor boy with such an ambition must prepare himself.” “Does this add to law enforce- ment difficulties?—among our laws, have we some we really don’t want? —laws that can’t be enforced, yet can’t be repealed—laws that are broken even by many of those who helped to put them and who help to keep them on our statute books?” “My job,” answered the attorney general, “is to try to enforce the laws, not to criticize them.” Yet the attorney general does cri- ticize a little, at least by implica- tion. Thus: “The extension of government ac- tivities into new fields has brought about devices in the supposed inter- est of expeditious law enforcement without inconvenient interference by the courts, by conferring more or less arbitrary powers on admin- istrative officials, constantly tend- ing to narrow the common law rights and privileges of the citizen. “We will do well to remember that the most precious inheritance of the new world from the old is embodied in those fundamental rights and personal liberty under the law, which ,have found their true expression hbre in our bill of rights and the first ten amendments to our constitution.” STARK TO HAVE STEAM HEATED COURT HOUSE Dickinson, Aug. 27.—Installation of a new steam heating plant in the court house here was begun recently. A Glendive contracting company is doing the work. Ever since its erection in 1886, the court house; the oldest public build- ing in North Dakota west of the Miss- ouri river, has been heated by stoves. The new system will save the tax- payers considerable money, says the county commissioners, as well as pro- vide @ greatly increased floor space in the building by the elimination of the old stoves. It will be about six weeks before the installation of the plant is com- pleted. The new plant is being put in at a cost of $3,300. . DIG UP 14 SNAKES Hazleton, Pa., Aug. 27—A steam shovel at the Wolfe colliery near here uprooted nine copperhead snakes and five blacksnakes. The reptiles were killed by the workmen as fast &s they appeared, most of them measuring three and four fee’ BLIND BROOM MAKER TELLS EXPERIENCES Williston, N. D., Aug, 27.—C._D. Kauffman, blind broom maker of Wil- liston, returned recently from a trip through Montana, While in the west some friends took Mr. Kauffman on a cherry picking trip. His descrip- tion of the difficulty for a blind man to pick the cherries is exceptionally good, “Blindfold yourself and then stand on a ladder and pick cherries,” he says. “Every time you've picked a few let go of what ever it is you are holding onto and draw your hands to your sides so that you can put the berries into a pail slung from your belt. Just try that once and you'll know how I felt.” FAN ANNOYS KING - King George couldn't tune out some troublesome squeals and howls from his private receiver recently, until authorities found a fan near the palace operating a home-con- structed set that was radiating en- ergy. .Besides committing lese maj; te, the fan hadn’t his set licensed. NO CAUSE FOR | PESSIMISM IN TWO DAKOTAS W. B. MacMahon, Editor of Zenith Writes J. M. Devine Story of Auto Trip EES STATE FIRST HAND Travels 900 Miles Through Vast Sweep of Waving Grain Impressed with Soil It is necessary to see North Dakota to appreciate the vastness and rich- ness of the state. This is the con- clusion of W. B. MacMahon, associate editor, The Zenith Magazine, Duluth, who hi written to J. M. Devine, Commissioner of Immigration, his impressions of the state. Mr. Mac- Mahon traveled over a large part of North Dakota with a party of Duluth business men, seeing the state for the first time. His letter to Mr. Devine follows: August 19th, 1924. J. M. Devine, Commissioner of Immigration, Bismarck, No, Dak. My dear Mr. Devine: Iam in receipt of your kind favor of August 18th. Thanks for the in- formation pertaining to your state, and to your state’s fine agricultural effort. We of Zenith always have found in you a prolific source of in- formation regarding your North Da- kota; in fact all of that which we have been able to pass along to our readers has been obtained from you, and for this good service we now thank you once again. I have just completed an automo- bile sight-seeing tour of North Da- kota, that proved to be an eye-open- er to me. I entered North Dakota from Glenwood, Minnesota, drove from there to Fargo, Mapleton, Cas- selton, Wheatland, Enderlin, Valley City, Sanborn, Eckleson, Spiritwood, Pingree, Edmunds, Carrington, Har- vey, Drake into Minot; from Minot to Drake, Anamoose, Minnewaukan, Devils Lake, Lakota, Grand Forks, over the river into Minnesota and on back to Duluth. Roughly speaking I traveled 900 miles in North Dakota, over a period of eight days. Specifi- cally I saw, felt and visioned more than my previously warped mental picture of North Dakota could as- similate, adjust and classify in or- derly manner. I saw wheat heading up into hig kernels, healthy and a good crop ex- pected; rye was wonderful—best in years~-and farmers’ were cutting it; barley very good; flax—“We have the best flax in years and more of it,” farmers said; durum wheat ex- cellent; potato fields blooming and looking good. If I run to superla- tives, remember that I received a su- perlative shattering of my imagin tive picture of what North Dakota looked like before actually beholding it for the first time in all its wide, fertile goodness. What He Saw Outsiders, who speak with criti- cism of North Dakota, have not seen North Dakota—certainly not what I saw. They have not put their hands as I have done—-into the rich, deep, black earth, stretching practically unbroken from the southeastern sec- tion of the state to Minot and then east to Grand Forks; they have not felt the warm, bright sunshine fall- ing on a thousand miles of waving grain, nor breathed the invigorating, health-giving air of the vast prairies. They have not seen the modern and beautiful schools, both of town and farm, which are the visible reason for North Dakota’s low per centage of illiteracy, namely, one and one- half per cent. What is true of the country and high schools is also true of the character of the buildings at the seven higher institutions of learning. It cannot be possible, either, that critics met—as I met—a highly intelligent and progressive}/g_0 class of just fine folks, in city and in country; people who have abso- lute faith in themselves and in their state and what that state is capable of doing, and will do. The critics must have gone through at night- a closed pullman berth—and then lis- tened to the dour tale of a pessimist in the smoking compartment. To see North Dakota, go out and look at it from the inside. In other words we did not see that great state from the rear end of an observation car. The state is too big and far reach- ing for snapshot exposure deductions. Let me illustrate: as I have stated before we traveled 900 miles and all of it in the east and middle western section. We never reached the Great Missouri Valley Slope in the western part, which extends North to South two hundred and ten miles and from East to West one hundred and twen- ty-six miles. This is the section made famous by the big ranches and the cow boy; of Fort Lincoln and Custer; of Sitting Bull and John Grass, the great Sioux Chiefs, but now broken up into thousands of small farms where beef stock, dairy cows and corn dot the landscape, so I am told by those reliably informed as to that section! No Fuel Problem ‘There can never be a fuel problem in North Dakota. Why? Because, in this extreme wesfern section, 20,- 000 square miles are underlaid with six hundred billion tons of coal, enough to keep every home in this country warm for a hundred years. In the part we traversed we saw homes of ten and a dozer rooms, with big barns twice that size; herds of pure bred Holstein, Guernséy and Jersey cows, or of fine grade cows over which run a pure bred sire. We were surprised and delighted with the number and excellence of the farm horses we saw in use. We saw (Continued on page 5) LEOPOLD, LOEB CASE IS CALLED GREATEST COURT DRAMA OF DECADE | Thousands Would Hear the Case as it Nears Its Close, With!

The setting for the drama in the cuse of the two youths who slew Bobby Franks is behind the smoke covered, gray walls of the Cook coun- ty Criminal Courts building on Chi- cago’s West Side. With wondows open ona hot, lazy August day, there comes the rumble of the city’ streets, the crunching of truck wa- gons from the squalid area of Chi- cago’s wholesale district, the clang of street car gongs, the piercing honk of automobile horns as impatient drivers speed on. Occasionally there is a steamboat whistle from the river. Spectators Crowd In The courtroom scene, one almost immediately concludes, is made for the spectators. On the judge’s bench were three other men Monday besides Judge Caverly, visiting judges drawn to the scene. In the jury box are a score of newspaper men and one“sob ster.” Sie “silent” typewriters ground out the “copy” while te graph operators sent it out “soundless” machines. From the judge's bench to the first line of spectators was but six or eight feet; all around spectators ;were crowded in. Mr. Darrow, the 67-year-old veteran of score of ;battles for the liberty of accused criminals moved to and fro within the little circle. In the rear of the room, which does not comfortably seat more than 300 people, are several j bailiffs. So great has been the rush of spectators that one has to pass several officers to get to the court- room door, Hundreds ure disappoint- on It is Loeb and Leopold that the visitors seek, more than the elo- quence of the lawyers. The gaze of the spectators roams the lawyers argue the cold facts of the case, but the crowd is quick to catch a retort, anxious to titter but hesitant to do so as they feel the spell of Judge Caverly Darrow Interesting Figure Mr. Darrow has made in the case what many believe will be his last great plea, He is said to have retired from the bar but been brought back by the tearful pleadings of friends and relatives of accused He is heavy set; his face i by lines and heavy jowls; his coun- tenance is severe. One can imagine him a great prosecutor, revelling in fiery denunciation of criminals, did he choose to be one. He speaks with conviction. His words come as if from a man who has wearied of the worl@, who has seen so much of the feebleness of mankind that his sympathy truly lies with one who has broken the laws of society—because nature made h{m weak or because society failed to min- ister unto him and guide him right- ly on a dangerous path.

North Dakota Corn and Wheat Re- gion Summary For the week ending Aug. 26, 1924. The past week was the most favor- able of the season for corn and it developed rapidly. Many reports of damage to corn from frost during the preceding week have been received; the most serious damage occurred in the southeast portion of the State. Harvesting is nearly completed ex- cept flax and late oats. The thresh- ing of rye and barley is well advanc- ed; also some spring wheat and oats. The second crop of alfalfa is being cut and other haying is nearly com- pleted, Pastures and ranges have “generally improved due to the rains on the 19th and 21st. Orris W. Roberts, Meteorologist. The lawyer for the defendants at times seemed unconcious of them. He was speaking as a philosopher, pleading at the bar for mercy upon the tortured soul of a weak human, striking at man’s inhumanity to man, excoriating society for its lust for vengance. Opponent of Hanging “Hanging”, he cried during the closing phases of his argument, “was not created for punishment; it was created for exhibition. They hung people by their toes and their hands in England centuries ago—so that others might see them.” He is a sworn opponent of capital punishment. Hanging is demanded for the murderers of Franks “be- cause some foolish person conceived the idea that hanging one man will prevent another from killing,” he said, The world is steeped in blood, he told Judge Caverly—an inherit- | ance from the days of the war when shedding of blood was common, Darrow in his long address talked at times in straight forward manner at times to the judge—with his face not more than four feet away from the judge; again he stepped back and allowed his emotions to carry him into a dramatic plea of a few sentences. Occasionally he directed satire at Robert E. Crowe, the states attorney, but only occasionally did he look backward to the two youths who have pleaded guilty. His gaze found them unperturbed.
