B BISMARCK TRIBUNE THB STATWS OLUESi NEWSPAPER (UBstablianed 1873) that evil-doers are always brought to book on this earth —and leave life to disillusion them as cruelly as it pleases. ‘You can show them any kind of half-baked “collegiate” picture and convince them that a university exists sole- ly to provide witless scions of wealth with a four-year Bis- | holiday. ie gas i. t, uf Real Crooks From Washington comes word that the “unclaimed estate” crooks are at work again. At first glance, it would appear that no one wise enough to earn a dollar would lose it in one of these schemes, and yet the toll which this particular “racket’ has taken in recent years is tremendous. Perhaps the most famous of these fakes is that per- taining to the distribution of estates of families of which - the “sucker” is supposed to be a descendant. Perhaps the strongest point in favor of this phase of the racket 4s the fact that large number of persons have very little knowledge regarding even their comparatively re- cent ancestry. Many Americans have been too busily engaged th the complex business of living to look up artic iassnnace blseoey, ot alot, the history of their grandfathers’ brothers and uncles. ‘This situation made it comparatively easy for a slick- tongued stranger to wangle money from the pockets of the gullible. In the first place, the victims were not insulted when they were told that a certain number of generations back their ancestors were dukes, earls, barons or persons of similar importance across the sea. ‘That information—or rather mis-information—made the victim think better of himself than he ever had before. ‘Then came the further information that hebben gentleman left estates of enormous value ai P fact they wow ‘are unciained. Payment of a specified 4 gum to the purveyor of this information will enable him ' to “represent” the “heir” in Europe and thus obtain for him title to the old family money and estates. A simple # fraud but one easy to perpetrate if the right victim is selected—and surprisingly profitable. In its present form, according to current information, $10,000 for one.

A Pen Fire and a Movie ‘The motion picture censors can usually be counted on to supply at least one good argument, every year, for their own abolition. Just now it is the Ohio board that has been thus oblig- Sometime during the last few months a moving pic- ture named “The Big House” was issued. It has to do ‘with events in @ big penitentiary, and there is s riot in it, with considerable unpleasantness for all concerned, and a bit-ef implied criticism of the way some peniten- tiaries are run. ‘This movie, like all others, was distributed through the regular channels throughout the country. By this time, Probably, it haa been shown in practically every large- sized city outside of Ohio. In Ohio, however,-it has net been shown at all. The censors held it up for several g be shown freely. But, by a {te own penitentiary last spring; an outbreak that nature is enough to intimate that “The Big House” Ohio because someone does not want the ‘unduly reminded of last spring’s frightful tragedy. + Wery Ukely that suspicion is base and unworthy. But it 4s worthwhile to meditate, for a moment, on the singular obtuseness with which censorship operates. G ‘If you own a movie theater in Ohio you can show any n ¢f film which will give children the idea that right 78 tzlumphs, that virtue always reaps a cash reward, ‘You can fill their childish minds with rank nonsense about marriage and divorce and love in general, with Propaganda about armies and navies, with sentimental goo and half-veiled suggestiveness arid all sorts of men- tal mush. But you cannot remind them that successive govern- ments in their state ran their penitentiary so wretched- ly that a fire there killed 320 men! The Government and Railroad Employment The number of railway employees has averaged thus far in 1930 about 300,000 less than in 1923, and even in 1929 averaged 193,000 less than in 1923. The Railway Age attributes the detline in the number of employees largely to influences affecting the volume of railway traffic, in- cluding especially the government policies of stimulating the growth of traffic on highways and waterways at the expense of the taxpayers. It raises the question as to why railway employees, especially leaders of labor organ- izations, have done, and are doing, so little to combat government policies that are plainly inimical to rail- way employees. “Both those who own and operate railways and those who own and operate motor coaches and trucks are en- gaged in business for profit,” says the Railway Age. “Why, then, should the government so aid and regulate, or fail to regulate, operators of motor vehicles as to enable them to take traffic from the railways which the railways could handle at a lower total economic cost, when the effect is not only to reduce railway traffic, but, also, to reduce the number of persons the railways can employ? & “The policy of the government in regard to waterways is still more unsound economically and unfair to both the railways and thelr employees. It furnishes highways to inland water carriers entirely free. It is_operating a barge line on the Mississippi river which, on the average, | has not even earned its operating expenses, much less any interest on the investment in its facilities, and which in consequence constantly incurs large deficits which are defrayed by the taxpayers. It is proposing to spend hundreds of millions of dollars upon deepening other waterways, at the cost of the taxpayers, the use of which will be given free to ‘water carriers, including the govern- ment’s barge line. Finally, the government refuses to let the railways make lower rates to the Pacific coast to meet steamship competition through the Panama canal than they make to intermediate points, although the ef- fect plainly is to divert traffic from the railways and re- duce the number of persons that they can employ. “Political influence is largely responsible for the gov- ernmental promotion of various forms of competition with the railways.’ Railway labor leaders and employees have political influence that they could use to combat the political influence that is being used to their detri- ment. Curiously enough, however, while railway em- Ployees have made organized efforts on a national scale for other purposes, they have’ never used them to combat government policies that divert traffic from the railways. ‘Western radicals, such as Senators Brookhart of Iowa and Norris of Nebraska, are among the most ardent support- ers of waterways. Senator Brookhart not long ago was quoted as saying that it might not be long until the coun- try would have no need of railways. Of course, it.would then have no need of railway employees. Nevertheless, Brookhart owes his seat in the senate largely to the vote of railway employees and continues to be one of the most beloved political associates of most railway labor leaders.” Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of thought by other editors. They are published with- gut regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Tribune's policies. ‘Where Is My Wandering Boy Tonight?’ (Killdeer Herald) ‘ Some of us can yet remember that sad refrain sung in the old days before the automobile and prohibition ited to make crime easier. youth went down the easy path that led to Jail it was of sufficient importance to be and mentioned in hushcd whispers around firesides of the old home town.

A queer duck, Collier thought; sensitive as the very devil and ob- stinate as a mule. Collier had said to him last night: “You expect too blamed much of Hollywood. Just because they don’t leap at your story ts no sign that you're not Good. If the studios could recog- nize a winner every time one came their way they wouldn’t be human. You were touchy enough when you were working at Continental; now thst you're on your own, you're even worse.” He had lectured Dan stiffly; had hoped to provoke him into an ar- gument—anything to lift the mood that had settled about him like a black cloak. But Dan only said, “I suppose 80."" And Paul tried again. “Why don’t you, let me go over and talk to Martin Collins, if you don’t want to do it?” “Because,” Dan said, “it’s none of your business.” And he smiled, to take the sting out of his words, but Paul knew that he meant exactly what he had sald. He tried not to be hurt about it. He said, “All right, my boy; I guess you know best.” And Rorimer was a bit contrite. “Look here,” he said; “Martin Col- ling knows I’m on the loose. And, be- sides, Collins doesn’t run that place ‘over there; he can’t do everything he'd like to do. If they want me to go to work over at Amalgamated they'll tell me so, because Collins told them about Over there, And so sure that I'd go, with nothing more than Collins’ say-so to rec ommend me to them.” adding water to good whisky does not damage it.

Anne was going ahead fast now; unless the unexpected happened she would be getting some pretty important Toles very soon. And Anne had started from scratch. Some day jshe might even be a star; it all depended now on the “breaks” she got and how the public liked her. Sitting beside Dan as they drove to town, Paul remembered the day that Dan had shown him the letter from Ziggy Young, directing him™ to look up an obscure extra girl named Anne Winter, and be nice to her. And he remembered how Dan had fumed—until he met her. Well, Dan had been nice to her, all right—too nice, perhaps, if be- ing nice was responsible for Dan’s Present frame of mind. In Collier's Philosophy no girl was worth all that trouble. They were on Hollywood Boule- vard now. “Your old home,” Paul ws motioning toward the Roose . velt. “Yep,” Dan said. “How about that idea of mine? Are you going to call up Anne and ask her to the opening?” “I'm thinking about it.” Paul said, “Just out of curiosity, how long has it been-since you've. seen “her?
