And no tore spooning at the wheel of a car, he adds. “Nobody,” he insists, “ean drive judiciously his arm around a girl's waist.” Finally, Eldridge concludes, traf) fic regulations, matter how good,| are no good at all unless rigidly en- forced, and right. there, he observes, is where the majority of cities fall down, He won't. | The Justice Department gets very few appeals to be sent to the Atlanta penitentiary for 26 years. That, however, is just what Gerald Chap- man wants, and in his case it's easy to understand why. He insists that the federal government only loaned | him to Connecticut to try him for! murder, and he thinks a borrowed article should be returned in as good condition as it was borrowed in. Be- f sides, if he's hanged, how can he { serve out his long Atlanta sentence for robbing the mails? | } The Justice Department j made up its mind. The fact is, the attorney general isn’t as much interested in Chap- man’s technicality as Chapman The government has more prisoners than it wants now. At this very time Inther C, White, new superintendent | © of federal prisons, is at Leavenworth, 1 trying to find an excuse for paroling J all the convicts he can. Li 1 worth has more than twice as many 1 inmates as it was built to hold. i Janta isn’t quite that bad, ‘but bad enourh. So much accommodation 1 wasn’t needed in the old days. Pro- 1 hibition law violations hadn't been invented then. hasn't | Smallpox is more prevalent than the government Public Health Service likes. Not only are there too many eases but they are increasingly ma- 1 lignant. The idea is that people develop | considerable power of resisting a disease they have had among them for sev ¥ generations, and either! don’t catch it or have it lightly they do. Thus the disease finally runs itself out. Only it isn't dead, just dormant. Reawakened, it us- ually finds a generation which has’ lost. the old immunity, and begins again as a much worse disease than it left off. Just so with smallpox. It partly ran itself out and was partly stam ed out by vaccination. Now that it appears to be reasserting itself, tt may prove to be deadlier than ever,! though fortunately under better con- trol. | Keep vaccinated, is the Public Health Service's advice. The State Department is hearing from many American residents of France who are scared at the pros- nect of a canital levy. Some of them have large French property holdings, | especially the ‘branches of various big American companies. A capital levy, if made, will hit them all. They can't get their wealth out of the country, either. Present French laws forbid. The govern- ment proposes to take a large chunk —10 per cent, and it will be more than that if the franc slumps, as probably it will. If France were a little country, like one of the Central American re- publics, the State Department mieht see Tks way clear to opposing this| confiscation. Being France, it isn’t likely to do so. | SUPREME COURT |, > . > From Stutsman County.

Operators of Heavy Duty; Vehicles Also Effecting Material Time Economy HOSE who drive over im- proved highways at night faa have been impressed with the rapidly increasing num. ber of freight trucks— huge vehicles eats darkly be- hind their penetrating, mellow, acetylene headlights which fill the road with man-made sunlight. The first impression is that truck trans- portation has very recently under- gone an enormous increase. What is actually happening, however, is a transfer of a vast volume of movement of freight by truck from the daylight hours to the period be- tween dark and dawn. Many owners of fleets of freight trucks are of course operating their rolling stock day and night. Other operators have abandoned the day- light haul, however, in favor of a quicker and more profitable night movement. when streets and roads are comparatively free of other trafic. A distinct advantage is gained by the truck owner in time saved, but it 1s an advantage which is shared by ell other trafic which uses the’highways. On long runs the saving in time by the night op- erated trucks is resulting in tre mendous economies, while even on the short runs the added profit is appreciable. . Inter-city highways do not enjoy @ monopoly of this night traffic, however. In the larger cities truck operators are finding that traffic congestion is making daytime truck operation highly unprofitable in many instances, and wherever pos- sible are confining truck mov: ments to the hours between 8 p..m: j Perry, Ia. where at the age of 21 ap: is.

Boston furnishes an interesting example of the growth of the ship- by-truck movement. Boston is the main supply center for a large por- tion of the textile industry of the country, aud has within a ‘radius of fifty miles about 60 per cent of the worsted and woolen milla of the United States. The short haul to and from these mills has proved 8o profitable to truck operators that fleets of heavy motor vebicles, with and without trailers. operate day and night between Boston and nearby textile centers.

HUNT NEA Service Writer Washington, April 17—The great- est value of John Garibaldi Sargent to the Coolidge administration is nut likely to be in his administration of the attorney general's office. ‘That is said in full appreciation of the fact that Sargent may make a re- cord of real achievement in that of- fice. Sargent's real value to the presi- dent, however, seems likely to lie in the fact that he brings into the administration picture a picturesque personality, with a knack of quaint anecdote and observation, that likely to capture and hold popular imagination and goodwill. He brings human qualities that have been largely lacking in the Coolidge offi- family, He gives the cabinet a savor and flavor that has been lack- ing. He supplies a much-needed sea- soning. Whether he supplies also clements of real nourishment, the fact will remain that the salt of his personality will make much more MACY.

Only one not overweighted with the sense of his own importance and having an irrepressible’ sense of the humorous would at that time have risked joking with the president about: having won appointment to the cabinet because the vice president had been asleep on the job. ‘Again, on that same day, Sargent mitted he was not a Solomon and jidn’t pose as one when, under a fire ol squcations by newspaper men he said: “Don't ask me any more questions, now, will you?
