Consolidation of County and City Governments, In the stock market the bulls bellow and the bears claw, so it is best to stay away from such a situation. In time of peace prepare for war, some statesman has said. It seems that all Europe is doing that very thing. Even kind-hearted people have no pleasure in listening to your narrative about your aches and pains, Tell it to the doctor only. lm Htaly soldiers are prohibited to swear, a proclamation to the Army read- itig* “Swearing dishonors the soldier. It is prohibited by military regulations.” Ne more swearing like a trooper,” In his will, George F, Baker, the New York banker, left 7,500 shares of First Na- tional Bank stock, worth about $15,000,- 000, to charity. These money-grabbing, “economic royalists” must be stopped. Those who know President Roosevelt more intimgtely say he likes newspaper- men but not newspapers. That’s a fine distinction because newspapers are what newspapermen put in to them, but look- TWO LESSONS, AT LEAST There are two lessons, at least, to be learned from the story of Robert Irwin, 29-year-old sculptor and former theologica) student, who will soon go before a jury in New York, charged with the killing® of three persons, including a woman, her daughter and a roomer. After killing the older woman, Irwin to}, SAYS. he didn’t want to murder the daugh- ! he’ was beautiful and he troy beauty.” _However, he er an hour while waiting for —the one he had decided to kill =to come home atid he’thought she did not know who: he was but.she made the mistake of saying, “I know it’s you, Bob.” The lesson, as we see it, is that, in the event any one you know, slugs you and holds you captive, be nonchalant and call some other name. It might save your life. Now that the police have captured Irwin, described as giggling, jaunty and without the slightest trace of remorse, his lawyers come forward with the theory that he is crazy and therefore not respon- sible for his triple murder. They hope to save his carcass from the chair and, per- haps a little later, he will be pronounced sane and turned out a free man. The defense of insanity, if established, may be convincing insofar as'- moral _re- sponsibility is concerned but a murderously inclined human being is a menace to so- ciety whether crazy or not. The purpose of legal punishment is not to injure the guilty through a spirit of vengeance but as a warning to others not to commit similar crimes. A man whose insanity is a warped conscience does not belong in the same categery with a raving, raging, out-of-con- trol mentality. Irwin had sense enough to plan his crime, to make his escape, to live for weeks as a worker in Chicago and, it seems, to set up a defense that might en- able him to beat the electric chair. He is intelligent, even if mentally disordered in a degree, and his type is a distinct menace to other people everywhere. The lesson number two, as we see it, is that, in order to deter other such intelli- gent-insane mentalities, the legal punish- ment of Irwin should not be avoided by society upon the flimsy reasoning that he was not responsible for what he did. NOT UNIVERSAL — Freedom of the press as it is under- stood. in the United States is not in exist- enee in many countries. The latest evidence of this comes from Ecuador, where the director of a news- paper has been forced to resign, becaus¢ of the publication of a cartoon that of- fended the dignity of the army. More- over, the journal was compelled to print an apology filled with fulsome praise of the soldiers. There are citizens of the United States who would like to have some * restrictions upon the press here. They become in- censed at things published and jump to the conclusion that there ought to bea way to stop such practices. In fact, there is: Quit supporting the publication by subscriptions and advertising. This remedy is better than censorship and control because it does not injute the right of the press to speak freely on almost all subjects. Without free speech there can be no certainty that the public will hear the truth and without complete _in- formation the success of democratic gov- ernment will be questionable. WHAT?
