CHICAGO NEW Y¥ Murder Will Out eral Rarely has the old adage “murder will out” been more | clearly proved than in the case of the Haven familly: in} McKenzie county, news of which has sickened thé state. What began as a mystery has ended in the revelation of one of the worst tragedies and one of the most ‘ter- rible crimes in the history of North Dakota. As this, is written it is impossible to say who is to blatiie, al-/ though the finger of suspicion points strongly‘ toward |- Charles Bannon, neighbor farmer of the hp now held in jail at Williston. First came the disclosure, months ‘after the traedy, that the Havens had disappeared. Why the disappest-| ance was not investigated sooner will be a mystéry to Some persons but to those who know their ‘west end ‘the conditions which prevail in the remote ona ete + this State it is easily understood. “Apparently ‘the Havens were the kina ot people + who keep their affairs to themselves. They were’ friendly but not intimate with their neighbors, And so, when they disappeared, it probably was not noticed for a few]| days, both because of the sparsely settled condition: of the country and the cloak which the reticence of the Havens had thrown about their actions, The fact that the people of the neighborhood had the usually happy, faculty: of minding their own business proved an: ald to the murderer or murderers in this case. Finally, 10 months after the slayings came the flis- Closure that the family was missing, the beginning! the'search, the investigation of the Havens’ financial af- fairs, the quesfioning the Young Bannon who had been Mving én the farm and then the discovery of the bodies) @m« by following the directions which Bannon gave. ty Had Bannon refused to talk it seems that the slayings might well have remained a mystery for a considerably longer timé if not forever.

It is unlikely that ’éiiy- + ope ever would have looked there. iSialins But Bannon talked and the murder was “out.” Ne 8 out from the large number of men whaxfiad] 6 “a part in the investigation is Andrew Jackson Knox, who i entered the case as attommey for Bannon when the latter faced trial for embezzlement on the charge of disposing of some of the Haven hogs. We know nothing of Mr. , Knox's legal attainments but as a man and a citizen nel ond - closely approaches the ideal of what a lawyer is 5 ‘Posed to be. # Without deserting the interests of his client, he kept im mind that the public welfare comes first. And s0, . with the aid of Bannon’s mother and the family spirityal diréotor, jné induced the youth to tell the truth ing, the Havens’ disappearance. The crime will be remembered in North Dakota as one of the most horrible and revolting in the history of the state. It is virtually a prairie reproduction of the St. Valentine's day massacre in Chicago where seven gun- | men were ‘slaughtered by members of a rival gang, but with this difference; the Chicago victims were-gunmen also and all the participants were outside the law, whereas the Havens were peaceable and innocent people ‘and had done nothing to justify their terrifying end at the hands of an enemy. * While the crime will be remembered, Mr. “Knox and his" part in solving the crime ‘probably ‘will be ‘forgotten quickly. But many will remember him as ‘the’ lawyer who was eminently faithful to his trust as'an ofticer of “ the courts of this state and who kept the interests of the common welfare above the interests of his client:, Contrasted with the kind of lawyers who infest the courts in other parts of this nation and whose principal * duty seems to be to aid guilty persons in evading the "got the wrong kind of start in life. law, Mr. Knox stands as a lasting credit to the legal profession both in this state and elsewhere. If there were more lawyers like him fewer crimes would go un- detected and fewer criminals would go free. He has demonstrated how valuable an honest lawyer can be to a community and even while we shudder at the heinousness of the crime our spirits are lightened ® bit by the figure of this public servant in the back- ground. te A Nation Indicts Itself A nation that is cruel to children convicts itself of pos- session of a very defective sort of civilization; and every once in @ while. something happens that indicates that we in the United States are not entirely free from that ‘kind of guilt. . In Bt. Clairsville, O., there was a boy named Johnny ‘Woods. He was 13 years old, and somehow or other he ‘Whether this was ; entirely his fault ‘is not quite clear. Perhaps theré was. Something lacking in his environment. At any rate, Sohn "Woods got into trouble. soother boy, four’ years older than John, igai’ Join ts attempt a bit of highway robbery with him. They.-held. : Up ‘an aged farmer, robbed him of the small change he had with him, and then shot him. They, were caught, :the older boy was sent to prison for life, ‘and John was ‘Yocked up in the Ohio reformatory. “Some little while later John was put in the reforma- ‘evry, the old farmer died from the wound he had re- “ceived in the holdup. Guards at the peformatory im- mediately began to work on 13-year-old John. They “Feminded him that he was now s murderer and that the / Penalty for murder is death; and they assured him that ‘he would die in the electric chair. Then the state of Ohio officially gave color to this «aveird theory by hauling young John Woods back to St. /Mlairaville.and bringing him up before a judge for sen- ‘tence. ‘The judge heard the arguments and reserved ‘decision. John was taken back to jail to wait. : ‘What happened was to be expected. John timpled ‘up completely. He has taken to screaming with terror.

Just what the state of Ohio will eventually do to this boy, who is now 14, isn't clear. Offhand, one would say that it doesn’t much matter. His life would seem to be pretty effectively smashed already. That, right now, is not the point. The point is that | this brief, horrible story will tell the historian of the future just about all he will need to know about the wis- dom, pity and understanding of the American Aa! of 1930. : The Christmas Clubs ‘ The “Christmas savings clubs” organized by the banks are each year becoming more and more important in the | national scheme of things.’ Figures compiled by the Alexander Harhilton Institute show that more than| $632,000,000 will be distributed this year to approximately | 11,000,000 members of such clubs. ~ i The average amount received by’ each member this} year is $54.60—five dollars below last year's average! However, the total amount of moitey involved, and the total number of depositors, are greater than ever before.) Those who are among the thrifty 11,000,000 do not) need to be told that the Christmas club is an excellent thing, for the individuals involved; and a moment’s| thought makes it obvious that the plan is a good thing for the nation as a whole. ‘The banks estimate that all but about 30 per cent of the money will be spent im- mediately—a stimulus for business of no mean size!

However, the chief prize fon poor taste: would seem to go to certain members of the congregation, who, as the offending judge was being dragged ‘from’ the cathedral, tried loudly, “Lynch him!” and urged that he be beaten} up and thrown downstairs. As an example of Christian meekness and forbearance, this behavior on the part of the crowd is not quite what one would expect. .,.Editorial Comment x Hditorials. printed, below show tho trend of thought by other ‘editors. They are published without’ regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Trib- une's policies. No Resubmission by the Drys (Minneapolis Journal) The Methodist Board of Temperance, leading dry or= ganization, turns thumbs down on the plan formerly favored by its secretary, Dr. Clarence True Wilson, to ‘call’ the organized wets, and resubmit the Cghteenth ‘amendnient.* “ This means there will-he no resubmission, by either this congress or the next. Indeed, it is not likely the eight- eenth can ever be resubmitted without. the cooperation of the drys. Seventeen small western. and southern states can prevent resubmission. .

It was such a popular misconception that served agricul- ture so poorly ten years ago when the speculative orgy in farm lands prospered on the opinion that prices never would go down. The same error now characterizes the attitude toward agricultural investment turning upon the adjusted viewpoint that they: never will go up. Now the inclination to believe agriculture. is doomed to continue disjointed seems as fixed as the exuberant optimism of the inflation was a decade ago. The es- sential stability of the farming industry must not be overlooked in the current Mutual Life Insurance company, offers a timely reminder of the substantial character of agriculture’s foundations. Speaking as the representative of a business group which has nearly two billions invested in farm loans and lands, he points out: “Farm investments, as a whole, and al- ways subject to sporadic exceptions, are as stable as agriculture itself. Both may have their slow periods, epochs of reconstruction as the’ world changes; but un- derneath isthe unceasing demand forthe, means of fe.” Such is agriculture’s essentially sound foundation.

H. asks: “What it the best method of preventing the return of cancer once removed by operation? Does exposing the parts to the sun help?” Answer; The best method I know of for preventing cancer is to live on a careful ‘diet, exercise vigorously each flay, and adopt the right mental attitude. It is a noticeable fact that cancer rarely if ever develops with those who continue to live a vigorous physical culture life. The congestion of cancer cells to any one part of the body. cannot occur if the cir ition of blood does not become sluggish Sunbaths are helpful because of tne ultra-violet effect on the blood. Nude sunbaths should be taken. exposing the entire body, as the effect of the the sun's rays are no more helpful over a certain diseased part than over the other parts of the body. The main objects-of these sunbaths is to \ absorb all of the ultra-violet rays possible, and the effect is general upon the blood and not specific to any one part. ‘Wholewheat Breads Question: H. E. J. asks: “May one who has catarrh eat wholewheat bread and muffins in which there is no sugar?” Answer: | Wholewheat bread and muffins are wholesome foods, but all starches should be discontinued by the catarrhal patient until the excess amount of mucu: has subsided. After that, these foods may be used in moderation with good results. Eye Trouble Question: K. L. asks: “Is there any remedy to stop a white coacing around the eyes every morning? Seems to. be caked on the lashes.” Answer: Use sgme good eye wash two or three: times daily, and have your eyes examined by a competent optometrist. AT THE MOVIES | ” CAPITOL THEATRE . With engines puffing, whistles blowing and bells ringing, “Danger Lights,” Radio Pictures’ spectacular all-talking railroad drama will speed into the Capitol theatre Monday for its opening performances. Heralded as the greatest drama ot '} the rails ever shown on the talking sereen, it has met with acclaim wherever it has been shown. Louis Wolheim, Robert Armstrong, and Jean Arthur appear in the prin- cipal roles and are supported by such well known actors as Frank Sheridan, Hugh Herbert, Robert Edeson, Allen Roscoe and James Farley. The. picture was produced on “lo- cations” in twelve states. The com- Pany traveled 31,000 miles on three special trains. Scenery of the Rocky Mountains, Plains of the north and middle west and metropolitan “backgrounds in Chicago have given opportunity for unusual photographic effects. Through the use of newly perfected sound re- cording devices, extremely realistic mana effects have been obtained, it is George B.
