CITY’S MARBLE HERO BATTLES FOR HONORS The boys who played in the first marble tournament six years ago are new ‘“too big for that sort of thing.” Dominic Cartelli, however, who has been identified with four such tournaments, began early in life and he js still in his prime as a oy marble shooter. Indeed, he is at Ms best, a veteran who last year ‘Was runner-up to the national cham. plon. By this time he also has the type of experience that avoids be- ing rattled when the big moments eome, not even when scorea of tele. grams arrive from the home folks 88 was one of the sources of dis- aster last year. ‘The public is ever ready to wor- ohip at the shrine of some indi- vidual whe has attained fame. Car- | | mencement in 1905, uttered the fol- | telli, sheuld he win the national campionship this year, will be such on individual. He will be the hero of New Britain. For seven years national marble tournaments have been held. The age limit being 15 years, few of those who participated in these evénts when they began are in Ocsan City today; and those, like Cartelli, who are close to the age- limit and have had experience, are mest likely to be the chiet con. tenders. Marbles has become a major sport. It has proved its right to survival. There must be a good reason behind | all this. Yes, there is one. We find | it in the rules, in the referees and in the players. The marble game as - played in the Toledo tournament, and in similar enterprises the coun- | ‘try over every spring, puts its main stress on character and honesty, on skill and determination. The thou- | sands of boys who play in it each | Yoar learn these lessons better than Dy preachment. And as in every ther sport that is more than a fad or a vogue, these lasting values are rwhat keep the game alive. The trip to the seashore that awaits the winner, the zest of com- petition and the thrill of winning mean much. But they alone could mot have made marbles the most popular of boy games, with over a | million youngsters tournaments the country over. Play- ing “for fair” and learning to be game, win or 10se, that is the real thing. more than amusement or en- tertainment. that youngsters are get- tUng out of marbles.

SAFETY CAMPAIGNS The grewsome fatality record made throughout the state the past week-end—surpassing that of any other week-end “for some time, the dispatches had it—was duplicat- ¢d in many another state. News. papers nearly everyWhere displayed the herrifying record on the first Pages of yesterday's papers. Where, one might ask, is this summer mad- ness to end? What has been achiev- ed, one might add, by the safety first campaigns which have been carried out by organizations of large mem- bership and by special safety coun. cils and by newspapers? 80 far as we can see, virtually nothing has been accomplished, In Connecticut it past week-ead that mere people met their untimely ends through drown- ings than through automobile acci- dents. This is unusual, yet there is no need to overlook the dangers that lurk in the streams merely be- cause there are more dingers the year round lurking on the highwaya. The same recklessness and thought. | lessness that causes people to step on the gas without consideration ot Iwhat lies ahead in the road causes them to risk their li in the waters. It is always the other fellow who is going to get hurt. Not until we realize that this widespread taking of life is a nation- al scandal will there be much of an improvement. happened the A BACKWARD NATION IN CRIME PROCEDURE rapidly in virtually everything but has contributed to the widespread contempt of the law. This attitude is reflected in vari- ous forms, including the high crime rate. One cannot help agreeing with the statement of Dean Roscoe Pound of the Harvard Law School, when he summed up current criticism of the backwardness of legal institutions follows: “American law was formative at a time when it teek Washington twelve days to ride from Philadel. phia te Cambridge in an emergency. Our legal institutions belong to an era when General Grant took nine days to travel by river boat, canal and rail from Ohio to West Point. . In short, transportation and communication have made of the land one vast overgrown heterogene. ous community, but our legal institu- tions speak from the time of small selt-sufficient local communities.” Bensing what was wreng and un. derstanding it. Willlam Howard Tatft, at the Yale Law Scheol com- lowing succinct werds: “I grieve for my country to say that the administration ef the criminal Jaw in all the states (there may be one or twe exceplions) is a disgrace to our civilization. . . . The trial of a criminal see; ike & [ of chance with all the chances in faver of the criminal; if he wins he seems to have the sympathy ef a sporting public.” President, sald American judicial | procedure was many decades behind that of every other civilized coun- try in the world. He added: “The actual miscarriages of justice, be. cause of nothing more than a mere slip of & phrase or a mere error in an immaterial form, are nothing less courts is antiquated and a hindrance, |not an aid. in the administration of (the law." | Even as far back as the ‘s0s, ‘Grmer Cleveland took note of the ‘ “open criticism of the decisions of |the courts which, all at once, has (become fashionable.” 8aid criticisms were due in part to what Woodrow Wilson later referred to: Due to, “a mere slip of a phrase or a mere error in an immaterial torm.” | 1t is & fact that members of the |bench and bar and laymen who | have taken the time to give the mat- ter thought have deplored the con- | dition of American law for the past | 40 years. During all that time re. forms in the system of administering justice in the United States have been bruited, without material suc- cess. Now President Hoover has taken it up. One can with profit re-read what he stated in hie inaugural ad- dress of March 4. 1929: “I propose 1o appoint a national commission for a searching investi- gation of the whole structure of our federal system of jurisprudence, to include the method of enforcement of the 18th Amendment and the causes of abuse under it. Its purpose will be to make such recommenda- tions for reorganization of the ad-. ministration of the federal laws and court procedure as may be found de- sirable.” The United States has advaneed | the administratien of jui b | A faulty administrati Justice | Woodrow Wilson, while serving as | | than shecking. The procedure in our | The growth of lawlessness, accord- ing té the President, is due only in part te the 18th amendment. In this he undeubtedly is correct, con- sidering that for more than ¢0 years there has been discussion of the fail- ure of the law and the increase in crime. Again we quote from Presi- dent Hoover: “Many influences had increasing- ly complicated and weakened our law enforcement organization long before the adoption of the 18th Amendment.” The nation would have to consider the preblems of redistributing the functions of the federal machinery of justice, sim- | plification of legal procedure, pro- vision of additional tribui better juries, and more effective organiza- tion of presecuting agencies. The whole system of justice, the Presi- dent said, was “in many respects ill- adapted to present-day conditions’ and “its intricate and involved rules of procedure have become the refuge of both big and little criminals.” Having again referred to the sub- ject in his fivet address as President, when he said the fallure of thé country's system of criminal jus- tice “was the most malign of all the dangers” threatening the nation, and ¢laborating upon this view sev- en weeks later in his address to the Associated Press, the upshot was the formation of the National Commis- ion on Law Observance and Enforce- ment to study the subject and sug- gest remedies. The President has been criticized |tor not sticking to his previous promise, uttered during the cam- paign, to appoint an investigating commissien to ascertain how prehi- | bition is working, or why it doesn't. This critcism, however, pales in view of the discovery that of the total i number of convictions for felony in 1928, less than eight per cent came from violations of the prohibition law. The natioen will study the report |of this commission with care, and it it is found that practical sugges- tions are made to improve the law- (enforcement process toward crime generally it will insist that Congress |act in accordance with the sugges. tions. It is true, there have been previous crime-study commissions, and their reports have been quite thorough. But this is the first that is predicated upon White House in- fluence, and it is to be assumed that its suggestions will have White House backing when the time comes for action. WHILE NEW ENGLAND SLEPT OTHER SECTIONS WERE AWAKE Just after we got through reading one of Governer Trumbull's recent statements about how industry In New England needs airplanes to carry goods t6 market in order to compete with goods of western manufacture we came across a state- ment by somebody (nime forgotten) who stated that the trouble with New England remains that it is too conservative. And then we reflected as 1o who was right. If conservativéness means, in part, a fear to take hold of a new thing and push it then the forgot- ten stranger, we think., wins on at least one count. Everyone has had occasion to | realize the enormous importance at- tained during the years by the radie receiving set man- ufacturing industry. New Enfland had as good a chance in this in- dustry as any other section of the country. Indeed, it takes skilled labor to make receiving sets; or at least it takes skilled operatives of intricate machinery. New England is supposed to be the home of skilled labor; and it always has been in a position to manufacture the myriad of metal appurtenances that go into |& receiving set. [ But where does New England | stand teday in this industry? We are forced to admit that she stands somewhere in the rear. It is true that one of the first re- ceiving sets manufactured was made in New England, and one of the first—if not the very first— broadcasting station was built in New England. Which took place in | West Medford, Mass. New England. therefore, can be said to have had the jump on any other part of the country in the radio industry; but by the time the Massachusetts product got fairly well stabilized in trade channels along flocked other receiving sets and loud-throated | horns reaching here all the ~ay from Oakland. Calif. Today, to the best of our knowl- edge. there are receiving sets made in New England. Most of our “sets” come to v« from Philadeiphia, Chicago, Rochester, Cincinnati, Long Island and New York, New Jersey—everywhere ex- cept from New England. It is the same story as that told in connection with the development of the automobile, except that the same alibi is no possible. In the case of the automobile it was claimed that the Middle West was closer to the steel output; and anyway. Henry Ford happened to live in Detroit in- stead of in New England, and that In the case of radio receiving sets, however, it has made a difference. last half dozen only twa makes of | this process, but we didn't Mu o the bandwagon to any great extent. Some concerns in New England made radio parts, and one in Water. bury made considerable of such parts. But on the whole, the old days when New England seized supremacy in the clock-making ine dustry, when it obtained supremacy in textiles and shoes regardless of its distance from the source of sup» ply. were not duplicated in the radio industry. We cannot help concluding that there is something lacking. Facts and Fancies BY ROBERT QUILLEN Nobedy likes te work at night, no wonder the law doesn’t.

It has color and force, and the leading charac- ters are strongly marked. ‘We wish to recommend its Im- medjate adaptation for the film, but at the same time to propose a few incidental changes necessary to make it a success, In the first place the character, Shylock, must not be a Jew, as this would needlessly antagonize a large section of the public. To avoid all offense it woud be better to make him a Mexican. A further point to notice is *that there are to6 many Italians in the piece and not enough Americans. It lacks patriotism. We would sug- gest that either the entire scene removed to Venice, Illinois, or else that the principal characters, such as Bassanio and Antonio, be made American visitors to Venice, and for the Doge we substitute the Con- sul General of the United States. We would like to replace Portia by one of qur great criminal law- vers, leaving Portia as his stenog- rapher. We think that the piece would sain in scenic quality by the intro- duction of a canal scene at night, by the drowning of one of the char- acters, perhaps several. in the | Grand Canal at midnight. and by ”he introduction of the Spanich In- quisition and the massacre of St. Bartholomew.
