If at the expiration of the 80-day period given Stewart to demonstrate that he has reformed and proposes to follow the straight and narrew path of honesty, the sheriff is able to re port that the semi-prisoner has ful- filled the court's orders, Judge Ment- zer will role the youth. If the sheriff's sport is adverse Stewart will be sentenced to a term in the penitentiary Stewart, a youngster just past his majority, presented a sorry spectacle when he was arraigned before Judge Mentzer. He cringed and stood with drooping head for a brief period. then burst into sobs and lamentation “P don’t want to go to the peniten tiary.”” he cried. “O, Your Honor don’t want to zo te the peniten 2 Judge Mentzer addressed the, pris oner kindly but withal delivered se imonishment for his wrong- it wo ONE (Speci CHEY Judge V mie ¢ vere doing should he not respect the confidence the court proposed to repose on him then informed the youth that he had arranged for him to obtain employment with the state highway de iment, “You will work al this employment during the day for the next month,” said the court. “and each night you willveport to the sheriff at the coun ty jail.

Misunderstanding of Amer- ican industrial organization, and of its benefits to mankind, leads to unrest, dissatisfaction, and radicalism. For example, the Federal Trade Commission tells the pub- lic that the large packers had an agreed price for lard substitute (made of cotton-seed oil.) It reproduces letters taken from the files of one of the packers, showing that such agreed price existed. But it failed to mention that agreed price was deter- mined at the request of and in co-operation with the Food Administration! Even the Department of Jus- tice, in its unjust attempt to create ‘prejudice against the packers, has made public these same letters, with no explanation. How long must this kind of misrepresentation continue? In so far as it is believed, it not only breeds discontent, but re- sults in injustice to our industry.
